Reviews and recommendations

This information was not provided on the original proposals, but was generated during the review process.

Recommendation:
Not fundable under this solicitation
Date:
Jun 21, 2001

Comment:

Not fundable under this solicitation. This proposal is more appropriate for the Columbia Cascade Provincial Review where the project can be reviewed in the context of the subbasin. The proposers should strengthen their proposal for that process. The threats addressed by this proposal are not likely immediate and consequently the benefits are not likely immediate. They do not have a concrete plan. This project would relocate Omak Creek through a ½ mile reach of a lumber mill being purchased by the Colville Confederated Tribes to avoid a potential passage problem. The project only marginally satisfies the criteria for funding under this solicitation, because the passage problem does not appear to exist at the present time. However, this is a worthwhile project because of the potential sedimentation problems should the construction not proceed.
