Comment:

This proposal for infrastructure does not address imminent risks to ESA stocks by offering direct on-the-ground benefits with one-time funding. The project seems worthwhile, but the proposal is inadequate and does not assure that streams with ESA listed species will be the only focus. This proposal is weak in its presentation, leaving many questions unanswered. It does not make a convincing case for funding. Why is the current instream water right program coordinator not doing the tasks described in the proposal? These seem basic to a water rights program. How would streams be prioritized? What data are available? Duties of the staff person are not well described.
