III. Status of Cooperative Agreement Activities <br />A brief summary of the status of important individual committee activities is provided <br />below: The Water Action Plan Committee and Water Management Committee did not <br />formally meet. They committee members did spend some time putting together draft <br />milestones. <br />• The Land Committee did not meet. <br />The Technical Committee met and made significant progress toward completion of a <br />monitoring protocol for measuring reproductive habitat and reproductive success for <br />the least tern and piping plover. The Bureau of Reclamation provided a short <br />presentation on sediment data to the Technical Committee. The three states have <br />decided that we may want to hire a sediment expert to help use summarize and <br />interpret sediment data. <br />IV. Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) Analysis <br />No specific activities were reported from the EIS team. <br />V. Budget <br />The budget did not receive significant attention since the last Board memorandum. We are <br />anticipating an increase in the projected budget (original CA budget was $75 million in <br />1997 dollars). However, additional work is required to identify a realistic and acceptable <br />budget level. <br />2
