Program Executive Director <br />The GC reviewed and edited the selection process. Proposed questions to be asked of the <br />candidates should be submitted to Dale Strickland by April 13 with a cc to Clayton Derby. The <br />Selection Committee will meet via conference call on April 16 to develop a list of 5 questions <br />each candidate will be asked. Dale will send a letter to the five candidates discussing the <br />process, identifying the issues for a presentation from each candidate, and request a writing <br />sample by April 20. <br />Program Financial Management Entity <br />The States and DOI are working on authorizing an extension of the current NCF contract through <br />September 2007. The GC needs to decide how to proceed with a long-term FME for the <br />Program, if the GC decides to continue with the NCF, negotiations should begin soon to allow <br />plenty of time for contracts. John Lawson noted that the DOI can extend current agreement for 5 <br />years, but not indefinitely. Colarado may have some issues with simply extending the current <br />contract further into the Program beyond September, and Colorado is working on getting this <br />issue clarified. Colorado will report back at May 2 meeting. The GC agreed that they would like <br />to continue with the NCF using a contract extension if contracting rules and regulations within <br />the States and DOI will allow. <br />Funding Requests <br />• Approval of RFP and funding for Water Delivery Study - Mike Purcell reported that <br />the Subgroup developed an RFP to implement the study identified in the Program <br />document. The RFP explain the system and the constraints of the system. Phase I of <br />the study will be to look at the existing three state projects and the projects in the <br />Water Action Plan. If the desired flows can not be achieved with these projects, then <br />the contractor will begin to consider other projects not currently identified. The <br />estimated budget for Phase I is $75,000. The GC approved announcing the RFP, <br />contractor selection using the current subgroup, and the budget up to $75,000. If all <br />contractor budgets are above $75,000 for Phase I, the issue will be brought back to <br />the GC. Any work on Phase II will need further GC approval. The subgroup will <br />consist of Mike Purcell, Alan Berryman, Brian Dunnigan, Mike Drain, John Lawson, <br />and Mark Butler. <br />Platte River Vegetation Mapping Proposal - Felipe Chavez-Ramirez provided an <br />update on a proposal from an existing cooperative effort in Nebraska that has started <br />mapping existing vegetative conditions in the region. Felipe noted that the AMWG <br />identified the need to map different vegetation types in Program study area and track <br />the changes during the Program. The proposal is to fund technicians to do the <br />remaining ground truthing in the Program area. Funds are needed in early summer <br />(May/June) to start the mapping. Funds would be directed to the Trust to hire <br />technicians and technicians would be supervised by FWS personnel. The GC <br />requested that the TAC review the proposal and make a recommendation to the GC at <br />the May 2 meeting. <br />Database Management System Funding - Dale reviewed past discussions during the <br />Cooperative Agreement on funding the database management system start-up. <br />Options to create and maintain the Program's database are 1) go to bid (RFP) with an <br />independent contractor or 2) negotiate directly with a party like the USGS.
