This contract period from Feb. 1, 2014 through Jan. 31, 2015 would continue programmatic objectives for the coho reintroduction program.  Duties to include primary O&M activities such as acclimation, adult collections and spawning and early egg incubation in both the Methow and Wenatchee basins.  Other actions are included as well (e.g.- carcass outplanting, etc.) but are part of these overarching program goals and objectives.  M&E activities include survival measures and data collection for status and trend analyses of the coho program; both within year and for long-term comparisons.  Modifications to the 2014 calendar year of events is that the Methow program will begin to prepare for a transition to the NPIP phase, which will require approximately double the adult collections for spawning (for 1 M juvenile production for release in 2016). The Wenatchee program continues to work through the BDPII phase of the program and will look to repeat project-specific studies to try and determine if a contingency can be implemented if adults are unable to ascend Tumwater Canyon at the rate required to meet BDPII objectives.
