<br />uU0556 <br /> <br />8 <br /> <br />IN 3/4.7 Determine origins of fish food resources, energy pathways, and nutrient <br />sources important to their production, and the effects of Glen Canyon Dam <br />operations on these resources. (RPM l.C.vi) Evaluate linkages between <br />the aquatic food base and the health and sustainability of HBC <br />populations. <br /> <br />MA 4.1 Limit future test flows (Le., 25,000 cfs and greater) from October through <br />February until a program has been designed and implemented to evaluate <br />and assess factors determining young-of-year HBC recruitment and over- <br />wintering survival. (Fall 1997 RPM 1) <br /> <br />MA 4.2 Conduct BHBFs during periods that avoid concentrations of <br />young-of-year HBC (1996 BHBF, HBC RPM 1) <br /> <br />MA 4.3 Report the results of the monitoring, including complete and accurate <br />records of all incidental take that occurred during the course of the 1996 .. <br />BHBF to the Service the same date that a draft and final is submitted to <br />Reclamation. Progress reports provided to Reclamation will also be <br />provided to the Service. This report will also describe how the terms and <br />conditions of all reasonable and prudent measures in this incidental take <br />statement were implemented, including any deviations from the test flow <br />and explanation for need to change. (1996 BHBF T &C 2) <br /> <br />IN 3/4.8 Determine effects on physical habitat used by young fishes, food base, and <br />direct effect on larval, juvenile, and adult native and non-native fishes of <br />1996 BHBF. Develop methods to detect changes in numbers of HBC or <br />their habitat from 1996 BHBF. (1996 BHBF HBC RPM 3) <br /> <br />IN 3/4.9 Develop a method to determine the number ofHBC suspected to be lost <br />during special flows and the relationship of this loss to the Grand Canyon <br />population. (T &C 2) <br /> <br />IN 3/410 Develop a strategy to sustain notable year classes ofHBC that are <br />susceptible to being transported downstream into unfavorable habitats. <br />(T&C 2) <br /> <br />IN 3/4.11 Acquire an understanding of the frequency ofHBC year classes in the <br />system susceptible to being transported downstream into unfavorable <br />habitats and impact of flows on that year class.
