Council Condition #1 Qualifications: The project is adequately justified for this review cycle, but to justify continuation beyond this cycle, the proponents need to establish a clearer linkage between the spatial, persistence, and genetic objectives and population viability analysis, recovery planning, and restoration implementation both in the interior Columbia River Basin planning domain and other ESA salmon recovery regions. There is not an apparent a priori viability analysis for this data to plug into. How does this inform viability analysis and restoration planning in other areas? They have high quality habitat throughout the Middle Fork Salmon River, so results could not inform poor versus good habitat, rather it informs connectivity and size of good habitat as it relates to productivity. |
