(6) Distribution and identification of specific sights positive for WD will be conducted
by assaying spore levels in specimens collected by regional biologists. Pete will
be responsible for this on-going disease analysis. On-going additional costs
experienced for the past year have been $57,500 and 27 months of temporary time
and hiring a qualified pathologist through a contract with CSU at a cost of
$11,000.

Total cost of redirected and needed money without counting all the administrative time that will
be spent by you, myself, Don Horak, Larry Harris, Tom Powell, and others is $710,800 of
which Aquatic Resources has redirected enough resources to cover 78 % and are requesting 22 %
be provided through additional allocations. In Summary we need an additional $155,500 and
70 temporary months.
