Response for project 199105700: Yakima Basin Screen Fabrication Phase II

Comment on proposed FY 2006 budget

This budget is to complete the replacement of the Fogarty Diversion fish screen facilitiy scheduled for the fall of 2005/spring of 2006. Funding will provide for the installation of fish screens, gantry, bypass control gate and miscellenious metal work which were fabricated previously. This budget will be sufficient to complete the remaining work.

Subbasin planning

How is this project consistent with subbasin plans?

This project is consistent with and implements Aquatic Strategies 10 & 16 of the Management Plan (More than 500 unscreened diversions continue to reduce production potential by entraining migrating fish, particularly in tributaries. Screening and passage projects are considered high priority actions to increase salmonid abundance and intrinsic population productivity). And ( Work Cooperatively with BPA to design irrigation diversions that will remain stable and functioning over long time periods).

How do goals match subbasin plan priorities?
