Other budget explanation

Schedule Constraints: It will basically take one man-year per species to complete the modeling. Because the plan is to devote two biologists on a half-time basis to do this task, a policy-level decision to model more thanone species at a time would delay completion a year.

Comment:

This is a good idea, but the implementation does not appear to be well thought out. As a stand-alone modeling effort, there is really no way to validate it; however, if it were integrated with the design of the overall supplementation experiment and monitoring effort being implemented in the Yakima Basin it would be very valuable.
