Reviews and recommendations

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

Recommendation:
N/A
Date:
Feb 1, 2001

Comment:

This proposal to improve streamflow and water use measurement through the construction of gaging stations, and installation of headgates and measuring devices does not provide enough detail to ensure success. The proposal does not identify the amount of instream flows to be gained from the project. Although this proposal meets some of the high priority criteria, specifically enforcement issues, it does not address imminent risks to ESA stocks by offering direct on-the-ground benefits with one-time funding.
Recommendation:
HP "B" M
Date:
Feb 1, 2001

Comment:

The proposal does not identify an action plan that it would implement. The priority of this project should be determined in a province review.
