Comment:

This is a well-written proposal for valuable basic information. The Secesh River is a good area for the study. The proposal states the target product and deadline and describes how data will be analyzed. The proposal could be improved in several areas: The sampling scheme is not adequately described, nor is how data will be used to evaluate the method. The proposal should describe what reaches are to be sampled. Also, adequacy of the project timeline needs to be established (e.g., will the study allow enough time to quantify the abundance and timing of spawning?).
