Comment:

These are a series of proposals [198909800, 198909801, 198909802, 198909803] from NPT, IDFG, the Sho-Ban Tribe, and USFWS. The proposals are for important research with desirable objectives. However, the proposals do not adequately describe experimental design and methods to ensure that the studies will achieve scientifically sound results. Although the proposals state that lengthy reports justify the experimental design, the important aspects of the design, why they were chosen, and their strengths and limitations should be summarized in the proposals. Otherwise, the technical soundness of the work cannot be evaluated. This project is over eight years old, but the progress and results to date are not adequately described. Reviewers wondered whether the small numbers of returning fish would allow the objectives of the work to be accomplished. Careful design of experiments and analyses might minimize these sorts of problems.
