? AVAILABLE INFORMATION <br />In addition to the Program Document and its AMP (Attachment 3), several additional sources of <br />information are available to assist potential contractors in responding to this RFP. All of these <br />documents can be accessed either from the Program Web site (www.PlatteRiverProgram.com) or <br />by contacting Chad Smith. <br />1) In the late 1980's, the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission (NGPC) recorded transect <br />information on sections of the lower Platte River for use with Instream Flow Incremental <br />Methodology analysis. While this information may no longer be current, it allows historical <br />comparisons in some stretches of river. <br />2) Multiple cross-sectional transect data collected by Mussetter, Inc. as part of a NGPC <br />evaluation of the Sarpy County/Clear Creek Levee project. <br />3) Cumulative Impact Study for the Lower Platte Corridor Alliance that may have some overlap <br />with this study. The information includes a digitized series of aerial photographs of the <br />lower Platte reach, and a GIS database covering a decadal time-step. <br />4) Several reports from Drs. Ed Peters and Jim Parham on pallid sturgeon use of the lower <br />Platte River: one submitted to NGPC for a Federal Aid to Sport Fish Restoration Grant; one <br />submitted to the Pallid Sturgeon/Sturgeon Chub Task Force; and one in press as a NGPC <br />Technical Report. <br />1* 5) Relevant sections of the Program's Final EIS and Final BO. <br />6) Completed and ongoing, studies conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey and other partners <br />related to pallid shirgeon use of the Missouri River. <br />7) The National Research Council's report titled "Endangered and Threatened Species of the <br />Platte River". <br />DELIVERABLES <br />The first project deliverable will be a draft protocol (see above discussion). The protocol will be <br />reviewed and revised, as needed, before being finalized. Once approved, the protocol will be <br />implemented as agreed upon by the contractor and the Governance Committee. Future <br />deliverables will be clearly identified as one of the items in the protocol. It is anticipated that <br />progress reports will be provided along with a final report. Other deliverables will include any <br />raw data, models, and other documents or materials collected and/or develoned as a part of the <br />study. Data will be reported in accordance with guidelines outlined in the Program's AMP and <br />the Program's Database Management System. <br />0
