Colorado Pikeminnow - 4 adults for 12 years, and San Juan River is maintained as a wild refugia of at least 1,200 adults for 5 years after deli sting, unless agreements expand this period of maintenance, OR 2. San Juan River population equals to at least 1,000 adults for 12 years and Upper Colorado River population maintains existing numbers of at least 600 adults, such that (for all populations, except for the wild refugia): a. a trend in adult population point estimates for the same 12 year period that does not decline significantly, and b. portion of ages 0, 5, and 6 that equal or exceed catch rates and proportions provided in Table 3 for 8 ofthe same 12 years. 3. Provide legal assurance and/or agreements for flows necessary to recover the Colorado pikeminnow, including tributaries which are important to the life history of the species. Other Ree:ions of the Colorado River Basin 1. Maintain through augmentation and/or natural recruitment two wild genetic refugia of at least 2,200 adults each in the lower basin (e.g., Lower Colorado River and Gila River Basin) for 5 years after delisting, unless agreements expand this period of maintenance.
