Section 5. Budget for Construction and Implementation phase

Task-based budget

Objective	Task	Duration in FYs	Estimated 2001 cost
1. Monitor and evaluate effects of supplementation on parr, pre smolt and smolt numbers and spawning escapements of naturally produced salmon.	a. Use "standardized" spawning, rearing, marking, release protocols.	6	$0
	b. Mark hatchery supplementation and general production fish.	6	$2,520
	c. PIT tag 750 general hatchery production and 750 supplementation fish.	6	$5,560
	d. Release juvenile chinook salmon.	6	$0
	e. Estimate parr densities.	6	$5,883
	f. PIT tag minimum of 750 naturally produced parr from two treatment streams.	6	$6,804
	g. Collect and enumerate emigrating fish.	6	$19,929
	h. Count returning adults using weirs, redd walks and carcass surveys.	6	$8,657
2. Monitor and evaluate changes in natural productivity and genetic composition of target and adjacent populations following supplementation.	a. Collect and enumerate parr, pre smolt and smolt.	6	$20,740
	b. Collect tissue samples for DNA analysis.	6	$3,764
	c. Monitor straying of supplementation adults with weirs, carcass surveys, radio telemetry.	6	$14,250
	d. Determine spawner recruitment based on parr and smolt numbers, adult escapement, redd surveys, radio telemetry.	6	$9,300
3. Determine which supplementation strategies (both brood stock and release stage) provide the quickest and highest response in natural production without adverse effects on productivity.	a. Monitor production (count number of pre smolt, smolt and adults), and productivity (survival, life stage characteristics, straying, genetic composition) of supplemented population.	6	$25,153
	b. Spawn local brood stocks with known natural component.	6	$7,272
	c. Compare natural production and productivity between first and second generations.	6	$4,908
4. Develop supplementation recommendations. (Long term).	a. Address risks and benefits in general and specific brood stock and release strategies.	2	$0
