Arizona BLM will be involved in the following <br />areas of your step down recovery plan: <br />2113. - Restore unoccupied sites prior to reintroduction. <br />231. - Prepare HMP for reintroduction site. <br />232. - Implement HMP. <br />However, at this time no proposed budget has been identified for these <br />three areas of the step down recovery plan. Until such time as a cost <br />audit target is identified, we will not be able to identify funds for <br />this program. We do agree with the reintroduction of the Colorado <br />Squawfish into it's historic habitat and will work with the recovery <br />team to meet these ends . - - ---_ ' <br />~. <br />~' 1 <br />Acting <br />t <br /> <br />
