S Pennanent operating facilities would be constructed concurrently with Project features requiring monitoring and
operation and maintenance.
, Recreation, fish, and wildlife mitigation measures would be implemented commensurate to and either prior to or
concurrently with impacts resulting from construction and operation of Project features.
