<br />ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS <br /> <br />This study was partially funded by the Recovery Implementation Program for <br /> <br /> <br />endangered fish species in the Upper Colorado River Basin. Some of the of data <br /> <br /> <br />presented in this report is also included in the Colorado River Recovery Program report <br /> <br /> <br />entitled, "Determination of habitat availability and habitat use of endangered fishes in the <br /> <br /> <br />Yampa River during baseflow periods". That report was still in an early draft phase at <br /> <br /> <br />the time this report was submitted. I greatly appreciate the field assistance provided by <br /> <br /> <br />temporary employees Pete Vanderbilt, Bob Lange and Rob Bringuel. I also <br /> <br /> <br />enthusiastically thank DOW employee Jay Skinner for his assistance in collecting cross <br /> <br /> <br />sectional data. The two local District Wildlife Managers (Brad Petch and Chuck <br /> <br /> <br />Woodward) were exceptionally helpful in providing valuable knowledge about the local <br /> <br /> <br />situation and river access. I greatly appreciate their contributions to this project. I am <br /> <br /> <br />very grateful to the numerous landowners adjacent to the Yampa River who allowed <br /> <br />access to the river for the survey work. Without their cooperation it would have been <br /> <br />impossible to randomly sample the river, which would have compromised the quality of <br />the data. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />33 <br />
