Other budget explanation

Schedule Constraints: Project is most influenced by extent of budget and availability of juvenile fish. This ongoing project’s schedule has plans for annual additions of sites and increases in fish reared. Local worst ever oceanic conditions will hinder evaluation of survival rates.

Criteria 1: Technical Criteria - Incomplete: Scientific justification of use of non-local stocks in particular how that relates to ESA and state wild fish policies.

Criteria 2: Objectives Criteria - Yes

Criteria 3: Milestones Criteria - Yes

Criteria 4: Resources Criteria - Incomplete: Describe what are the additional planned expansions and when will they occur?

Recommendation:
Adequate
Date:
Jun 18, 1998

Comment:

The proposal is rated adequate, however there are criticisms. The proposal does not provide good information on past results; the sponsors state conclusions rather than offer evidence; and stocks to be used for production are not specified. Further, the proposal discusses strays into other hatcheries, but not into streams. Once fisheries are developed and clientele are established, pressures may emerge to continue the program despite possible impacts. If the sponsors truly wish a commercial fishery for the Lower Columbia, the ISRP reviewers comment that this may be it -- but the proposal begs considerable improvement. Some of the listed objectives may already have been accomplished as well. The ISRP urges that an independent source conduct monitoring, and that BPA closely examine the budget. The investment of $4.1 million thus far to determine feasibility should be examined.
