Section 2. Past accomplishments
| Year | Accomplishment |
|---|---|
| 1996 | Participated in initial stages of PATH planning and helped develop suite of hypotheses to test. |
| 1997 | Produced preliminary retrospective and prospective passage model runs for spring chinook. Proposed althernative forms for the life cycle model. Developed hypotheses about post-Bonneville "extra-mortality." |
| 1998 | Produced updated prospective and retrospective passage model runs for spring chinook. Participated in weight of evidence process by contributing reports. |
| Calibrated CRiSP passage model with new survival data and produced preliminary retrospective and prospective runs. |

Reviews and recommendations
This information was not provided on the original proposals, but was generated during the review process.
Comment:
Recommendation: Do not fund. PATH, in its present form, with its present mission, should be phased out. A simpler process could be created to meet the continuing need for evaluation of the limited data now available to address management questions relative to the hydro biological opinion. A more ambitious and comprehensive scientific consensus process should be developed, somewhat along the lines of PATH, to address data collection design issues for the basin, to identify data needs that are critical to the actual management questions, and to ensure that data needs are met, to the extent practical, as quickly as possible, in a coordinated and efficient manner.Comments: Relates closely to 8910800. Why is this separate from 9800600? There should be a better description of the indirect costs to the UW and the direct costs for office space.

Comment:
PATH projects reviewed in detail last year, little has changed. Appears to duplicate Project #9800600. Question amount of hours. Needs to be related through an umbrella. Due to budget constraints, AFM suggests holding these projects to the FY99 funding level.Comment:
Technical Criteria 1: Met? Yes - Needs to be put under PATH umbrella. Needs multi-year budget.Programmatic Criteria 1: Met? Yes - Question what aspect of PATH is being covered here that is not covered in the above project. Put under the PATH umbrella if it is not duplicative of 9700200.
