A reliable hydraulic simulation <br />typically requires one complete set of discharge/water surface elevation data at a mid-range flow for <br />each transect in the IFlM study. In addition, water surface elevation datasets are also required at <br />high and low flows at each transect in order to properly calibrate the IFIM stage-discharge <br />relationship. Development of site-specific habitat suitability curves can also elevate the cost of an <br />IFIM study. Stalnaker et al. (1995) estimate the cost ofIFIM studies on single river segments to be <br />around $45,000. <br /> <br />IFIMlPHABSIM studies are commonly used to evaluate impacts from hydroelectric power <br />projects and to develop permit conditions on federal perrnits and licenses (Stalnaker 1995). Because <br />of the relatively high cost of performing IFIMlPHABSIM studies, their utility may be limited to the <br />development of instream flow recommendations on controversial stream segments with high water <br />development potential (Nl'hring 1979). The CWCB and CDOW have utilized combinations of <br /> <br />8 <br />
