Other budget explanation

Schedule Constraints: The goal for FY99 is to complete the Watershed Assessment, complete remote sensing analysis, complete a road survey and archaeological survey, and complete a pilot study. Construction phase and projected outyear costs are contingent on completion of remote sensing analysis, and may be subject to substantial change dependent on the results of these analyses. The project could also be limited by NEPA compliance, ESA compliance and constraints, permitting (state and federal), easements with private landowners, and available work window. According to recent redd surveys, it is unlikely any fish will return to spawn in 1999-2001, affording an opportune time to initiate and attempt to complete construction with minimal impacts on listed species. There are currently federal highway funds available that need to be obligated by the year 1999. If these funds are used within our proposed construction dates, they could help alleviate costs associated with moving the road from the middle of the floodplain.

This is a worthwhile, reasonable proposal. The incorporation of expertise in geomorphology is a strength. The methods should be more thoroughly described.
