Description    


The original work plan placed more emphasis on completing public reviews of various elements of the Idaho salmon/steelhead recovery plan. During the project term, court decisions and requirement for data to respond to court mandates required that some of the recovery planning decisions be made earlier than projected. As a result, there was a short-term refocus on developing limiting factors for specific populations to be analyzed and included in NOAA Fisheries response to the court and in seeking public review of those documents.

Another deviation to the project was the addition of a comprehensive analysis of limiting factors on a watershed basis both to provide additional information for public review and to provide a basis for calculating the costs and magnitude of the recovery job. This added some time to the project, approximately one month, and increased the need for GIS support. A no cost amendment to extend the time was granted and the work was completed within the budget amount.

The project sponsor met the original objectives as the facilitator in establishing focus groups, planning of focus group meetings and reporting the results of those meetings with the overall goal of incorporating the review and comments from each focus group session into a final version of the Recovery Plan.

A website was created to display drafts for easy review and comment. The web address for the Early Draft Plan Chapters for Public Comment is: http://www.idahosalmonrecovery.net.

This project paved the way for additional measures to localize specific recovery actions at the population group or watershed level and to calculate the costs of recovery actions that are achievable and which will be effective.

Project Benefit    


This project will contribute to the Idaho State Salmon-Steehead Recovery Plan addressing factors that limit abundance and distribution of Snake River Basin ESU-steelhead as well as the Snake River Spring/Summer run ESU and the Snake River Fall ESUs for chinook salmon.
