Final Council recommendation (Nov 2006)

Funding category: Expense

Recommended budgets: FY07: $0 | FY08: $0 | FY09: $0

Comment: Tier 2. 3rd priority on Intermountain Province Tier 2 list. Fund at a level consistent with ISRP comments as funding becomes available.

ISRP final recommendation: Fundable

Comment:

Sponsor has dealt with ISRP comments and revised the proposal satisfactorily and included broader representation on the science review panel. This project has solid biological objectives and envisaged methods. The sponsor (WDFW) explains that, because this is essentially a project for developing many separate on-the-ground projects, M&E design must await development of the individual projects and will be tailored to each one. Therefore, the M&E aspect of this proposal would have to be taken on faith that WDFW will do it right. Furthermore, the added M&E will be accomplished at no added expense. WDFW certainly has the capability to design and undertake suitable M&E, if they bring the right personnel to bear on the matter.
