Reviews and recommendations

This information was not provided on the original proposals, but was generated during the review process.

Recommendation:
Return to Sponsor for Revision
Date:
May 13, 1998

Comment:

Management Issue: Explain how this position does not duplicate other southeast Washington coordination positions such as the Grande Ronde Model Watershed or Eastern Washington Model Watershed.

Technical Issue: Clearly explain why the watershed assessment is needed, and explain the other analyses that have been done on this watershed.

Management Issue: Explain if NRCS cost-sharing has been pursued; along with using the existing model watershed program to implement this work.

Technical Issue: Clearly describe the NPT work.


Recommendation:
Do Not Fund
Date:
May 13, 1998

Comment:

urgent. Proposed activities would not produce significant near-term survival improvement nor risk a lost opportunity within the next 1-3 years.

Duplicates ongoing work. Some or all of proposed activities are similar or identical to work already funded. Better knowledge or coordination of past or ongoing projects would have reduced or eliminated project need.

Did not respond adequately to technical criteria. Proposal was either incomplete but did not provide adequate information to determine whether technical criteria were met, or was complete but did not meet technical criteria.

Questionable management value. Proposal was either incomplete but did not provide adequate information to determine whether management criteria were met or complete but did not meet critical management criteria.


Recommendation:
Adequate
Date:
Jun 18, 1998

Comment:

This appears to be a watershed council proposal. The proposal’s strengths include a good description of tasks and milestones, a quantifiable completion date of one year, and the use of a geomorphologist to provide needed expertise. The proposal does not describe how ecological inputs will be considered.
