In response to the ISRP’s recommendations for FY 2007-09 regional coordination proposals, the Bonneville Power Administration and regional coordination project sponsors requested additional ISRP clarification and input on developing evaluation plans and associated metrics for regional coordination projects. The Columbia Basin Fish and Wildlife Authority (CBFWA), Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission (CRITFC), Upper Columbia United Tribes (UCUT), Kalispel Tribe, Spokane Tribe, and Pacific Northwest Aquatic Monitoring Partnership (PNAMP) submitted regional coordination proposals (the Upper Snake River Tribes developed a project after the ISRP review).
This memo provides background on past ISRP reviews and general guidance on developing evaluation metrics.
