The automation system <br />(SCADA) will be constructed in FY 2002 and the Highline Lake pumping plant will be <br />constructed in FY 2003. Total out year cost: $1,427,800. <br /> <br />C-14 CAP/9403: Coordinated Reservoir Operations (CWCB, $0) (See PIP-12c) <br /> <br />94/C-24 CAP/980 I: Duchesne River Coordinated Reservoir Operations (BR, $10,000) <br /> <br />Completion of identification and evaluation of opportunities to coordinate operations of <br />various reservoirs in the Duchesne River Basin with the goal of delivering water to the <br />lower Duchesne River to improve important habitat for Colorado pikeminnow and <br />razorback sucker. Total out year cost: $0 <br /> <br />84. HMG/970 I: Duchesne River Biological Studies (FWS, UDWR $0) <br /> <br />Completion ofreport providing biological (fish distribution and relative abundance) and <br />physical-habitat (channel morphology and maintenance) data for testing and/or <br />refinement of the existing preliminary flow recommendations for the Duchesne River to <br />facilitate recovery of the endangered fishes. Total out year cost: $0. <br /> <br />85. HMG/90--: Basinwide Channel and Sediment Monitoring <br /> <br />The channel monitoring program supports Recovery Program efforts to develop flow <br />recommendations, restore flooded bottom lands, and monitor the physical conditions of <br />the rivers in the Upper Colorado River Basin. <br /> <br />85a. Mainstem Colorado (FWS, CU $0) - Completion of report on sediment transport and <br />channel dynamics in the 15- and 18-mile reaches of the upper Colorado River and the <br />geomorphic effects of coordinated reservoir releases. Total outyear cost: $0. <br /> <br />85b. Yampa and Green River sediment monitoring (FWS, USGS $71,000) - Standardized <br />monitoring of sediment load (suspended and bed) and bed material in the Yampa and <br />Green Rivers to determine effects of flows and help define habitat requirements. Total <br />out year cost: $71,000. <br /> <br />85c. Upper Colorado River Channel Monitoring (FWS, $19,800) - Monitoring depth-to- <br />embeddedness and invertebrate biomass at each of 16 sites along the Colorado River in <br />the Grand Valley. Total out year cost: $147,700. <br /> <br />C-3 <br />
