Reviews and recommendations

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

Recommendation:
Fundable. B-list

Comment:

Fundable, ranked at the top of the B list. This is a carefully prepared proposal. It includes a good background to describe the problem and, based on information from elsewhere, describes its likely benefit. The proposal includes a monitoring element to verify that small fish are in fact prevented entry to the irrigation withdrawal system. The need has been demonstrated and prioritized. Project includes initiation of design and will apparently take 30 months to complete; consequently, the benefits to the species affected by the power system emergency will be in the long rather than short term.
