E. INTEGRATION STUDIES
1. Employment of a Senior Scientist.
Major Premise: It is important to bring a Senior
Scientist in at the beginning of the environmental
and economic studies and to establish a Research
Advisory Panel (RAP). A Senior Scientist and the
RAP would separate out scientific needs and
requirements, and provide the focus for the
development of an integrated resource plan.
Estimated Cost: Dependent upon level of effort.
Responsible Parties: Reclamation, NPS, FWS, USGS,
AGF.
Time to Complete: Unknown.
2. Inteqration river triz
Major Premise: Upon selection of a Senior Scien-
tist and the development of a Research Advisory
Panel, a field trip through the study site from
Glen Canyon Dam to Diamond Creek is necessary.
This would provide a forum for discussion, iden-
tification of specific areas of concern, under-
standing, and integration of all study components.
Estimated Cost: $8,000
Responsible Parties: GCES Phase II individuals
from all affected bureaus and agencies, senior
Scientist, and National Academy of Sciences Review
Committee.
Time to Complete: 2 weeks.
3. Develop an integrated resource plan.
Major Premise: An integrated resource plan is
necessary due to the complexity, interactions, and
indirect effects within the study area resulting
from Glen Canyon Dam operations. The plan needs to
address the concerns of the National Academy of
Sciences' review panel on the Glen Canyon Environ-
