5. Develoo Quantitative recovery qoals and a lonq-term habitat orotection
strateQY.

The bony tail chub is near extinction in the wild and this recovery plan
focuses on those immediate actions which are needed to prevent extinction
and to gather essential life history and habitat information needed for
recovery. Once the immediate threat of extinction is removed and
information regarding the factors that are limiting the survival of the
bony tail chub are obtained, specific long-term strategies for the
protection of its habitat and the establishment of quantitative goals for
eventually downlisting and delisting the species will be developed.
