Comment:

This proposal has a valuable general goal and addresses a large area of important fish habitat. However, the proposal is vague and too little detail is given to justify the work. The proposal appears to be for an assessment of existing information; no on-ground assessment activities are planned. The objectives section is vague and criteria for assessment or decision-making are not detailed. Methods and monitoring plans are vague or absent. The proposal should describe other assessment efforts and its relation to them.
