	C	174	Produce Plan	Produce an annual operation plan	Sekokini Springs research facility is now incorporated as part of the Montana Sate Fish Hatchery System. All standard state hatchery operation, disease, and fish handling protocols are therefore already included into its existing operations plan. This required work element, by reference, is therefore already accomplished.	Cutthroat Trout, Westslope (O. c. lewisi)
	D	176	Produce Hatchery Fish	Sustain exisiting fish culture operations and activities	Sekokini Springs already supports WCT conservation efforts with fish on station that need to be cared for in normal operations of the facility.
