Comment:

This was an apparently hastily written proposal that was incomplete. It ranked low in the set. It did not reference the Fish and Wildlife Program or NMFS plans in the initial section, but did in text. It listed only two other projects for coordination (only one PATH project). The objectives were very general and no tasks were listed. The proposed plans were better described in text, but not stated as objectives. Although the abstract was good, the background was hastily written. This proposal needs to be coordinated with 8910800, 9601900 and 9018. Personnel are unclear: how much time is being put in by the personnel, who are they?
