Schedule Constraints: None anticipated. Some parts of the drainage may not receive full assessment or prescriptive measures if landowners are unwilling to participate. Unusual weather conditions may also hinder assessment of watershed conditions.

Comment:

Technical Issue: Explain why $250,000 is necessary to perform the watershed assessment.

Technical Issue: Good that the assessment will follow the federal six-step guide and the Washington State WA manual.

Technical Issue: Need to clearly describe what methodology will be used to perform the assessment and analysis, how the analyses will be used for management decisions, and what the expected outcome is.


Recommendation:
Fund (low priority)
Date:
May 13, 1998

Fund at reduced level due to budget constraints
Recommendation:
Adequate

Comment:

This proposal is well written. It describes the use of both the federal and Washington State watershed analysis, which is a positive feature. Biological monitoring and the current assessment of salmonids need to be better described.
