Other budget explanation

Schedule Constraints: Availability of salmon for supplementation in 1999 may change the focus of the project to a captive brood stock program instead of supplementation project. Completion of NEPA analysis and ESA requirements is expected in 1998, but could extend into 1999. Completion of NPPC 3-step review/approval process could cause delays in final design and construction of necessary facilities. Final design and construction should begin in 1998 and be completed in 1999 or 2000. However, the availability of qualified engineering design firms and construction firms could set design and construction time lines back into 2000 or 2001.

Recommendation:
Inadequate
Date:
Jun 18, 1998

Comment:

This proposal is to build a new facility for collecting and raising new broodstock (a small-scale production initiative), but it does not give adequate justification of the need for this activity. The proposal does not adequately describe or justify the methods to be used, though it states that NATURE’s technology will be used and evaluated. Likely effectiveness of supplementation is not well addressed, though the five-generation supplementation timeframe is consistent with RASP guidelines.
