Notes will be kept on any parasites andlor abnormalities observed on collected fishes. Electrofishing will follow the methods set forth above and in the long-term monitoring plan. Seining and trammel netting may be done where suitable habitat is available at the sampling crews' discretion. The Service will have the lead for adult monitoring trips and other cooperating agencies will provide personnel and equipment as needed. Costs for cooperating agencies are included in this budget. Products: An interim progress report for adult monitoring data collected during 2005 is scheduled to be available by 31 March 2006. The "draft final" of this interim progress report which incorporates comments received, is scheduled to be completed by 1 June 2006. DBASE files containing information on total catch and length/weight data gathered on adult monitoring trips will be submitted to the University of New Mexico's Museum of Southwestern Biology (Division of Fishes) for inclusion on the San Juan River Recovery Implementation Program integrated database CD-ROM and web page by 31 March 2006. Maior equipment purchases for FY-2005: The Coffelt VVP and Honda generator we are currently using have been in continuous service since 1992. We are requesting funds to replace these units with a combination Smith-Root GPP 5.0 e1ectrofisher and a new Honda generator (made by Smith-Root specifically to run with the GPP 5.0) in FY -2005. This would also serve to standardize the electrofishing equipment on this raft with all the other electro fishing rafts being used by other agencies. Approximate cost of this item is $10,000. This is a one-time cost for FY -2005.
