Table 3. Implementation Finding by Sponsoring Agency

In Table 4, implementation success is reported for eleven major cate-
gories of habitat and population measures presented in a U.S. Fish and
Wildlife study (7,8). For categories with greater than 10 requests, the
implementation rates for reservoir conservation pools and dam discharge
systems are comparatively high, especially in contrast to general practices.
Possibly these differences reflect the priorities normally assigned to
implementing the design features of the dam itself and the planned fishery
management measures when constructing reservoir projects. Types of measures
sometimes neglected deal with features remote from the immediate dam and
reservoir site. Therefore, features planned for the upstream or downstream
reaches and intended land use controls affecting the entire reservoir site
or related watershed may be postponed or never accomplished.
