<br />Executive Summary <br /> <br />April 2004 <br /> <br />5,800 adult razorback sucker with average annual recruitment of 30% (i.e., 1,740 adults; recovery <br />target). This average is based on simulations that range from 206 to 8,131 acres with nine <br />combinations of low, moderate, and high fish density and growth rate. Past and proposed <br />restoration of seven sites (Phase I) will result in 1,389 acres of long-term floodplain depressions, <br />and additional restoration (Phase II) will result in 9 sites and 2,551 acres. The restoration <br />described in this Plan through Phase II meets the requirement for long-term floodplain depression <br />habitat estimated by the Floodplain Model. <br /> <br />A timeline is not provided for this Plan because implementation of phases will depend on <br />a number of factors, including effectiveness oflevee breaches, suitable river flow conditions, <br />response by the target fish species, the outcome of management actions, and available funding. <br />Estimated costs are also not provided because actual costs of restoration at key floodplains are <br />not currently known, and available funding is not known. <br /> <br />X11l <br />
