Platte flows (i.e., augmentation as opposed <br />to creation). <br />- Add expectations/anticipated outcome. <br />- Consider trying to create/augment on a larger scale since the proposed pulse may be to <br />small to have much effect on the habitat/species. <br />- Look at past pulse events for indications of how an augmented/created pulse test might <br />work. <br />Whitmore said that no decision had been made to try a pulse test this spring. She indicated she <br />wanted to give everyone the opportunity to provide input and do ample coordination/outreach <br />with all parties prior to using the EA to do something like this. She asked for comments on the <br />draft pulse flow test proposal by May 1 st. <br />Future Meetings <br />The two committees were in support of having at least two in-person meetings per year, in the <br />fall and spring.
