Comment:

The budget was held to the level assigned by the CEOR SRT in FY 2000. The watershed assessment work is new and appears to be heavy on personnel costs. It is unclear what the $115,000 for the assessment is paying for. This work was not identified in the FY 2000 proposal and should be reviewed for technical merit before being funded. Is this information readily available from the EDT analysis that has been completed for the Deschutes River?
