Other budget explanation

Schedule Constraints: During some years extreme river flows may preclude successful redd capping and trapping of juvenile salmon. ESA concerns may prevent us from disturbing natural fall chinook redds. In this case we will have to apply for a modification to our section 10 permit or use the results from artificial redds created as natural as possible without using egg baskets. We would also need to request a modification to our section 10 permit for approval to PiT tag more fish. Because this project is not scheduled to begin until 1999 we will have time to request these changes.

Adequate

Comment:

We agree the study should determine the origin of the fish, identify current habitat conditions, and conduct intra-gravel survival studies. However, the sample size appears small for the egg basket study. The limiting factor analysis is not complete. For example, food supply factors are missing.
