Comment:
The FY 99 budget request is in error and should be $501,995. If funded at $399k, the PIT tags ($73,950) will need to be purchased from another account, spring chinook at Entiat NFH ($29,600) will not be marked.
Recommendation:
Inadequate

Comment:
This is a poor proposal that ranked low in the set. The writers did not follow instructions on preparation of the proposal. The basic marking is a good idea, but the proposal contains loosely related objectives and is poorly written. This proposal includes objectives 4 and 5 on rearing upriver brights fall and spring chinook, but these objectives are not closely related to the title. The proposal title is archaic and sensible only if you know the project history. How can the groups be missing if they are being marked? There is not an adequate explanation of "missing." The proposal appears to duplicate project number 8201300 (Coded Wire Tag Recovery Program) and needs coordination (independent review?) with other coded-wire tag proposals. A rethinking of the whole coded-wire tag program may be needed to bring it up to date.
