However, until these recovery goals are established, trends in certain <br />population indices (Appendix D) will provide an interim assessment of a species' progress toward <br />recovery . <br /> <br />6, Long-Term Funding <br /> <br />The Recovery Program participants will pursue and support introduction oflong-term funding <br />legislation in the Senate and House of Representatives during the 106th Congress, The legislation <br />is to authorize cost shared funding for both the San Juan River and Colorado River Recovery <br />Programs. The purpose of the legislation is to authorize and provide funding for the <br />implementation of all the Recovery Activities of the Recovery Program within the currently <br />established time schedule, This legislation is essential to the implementation of the Recovery <br />Actions described above, The legislation will include authorization for both capital and base <br />funding. <br /> <br />The Recovery Program participants also will continue to pursue and support annual Federal and <br />State appropriations and revenues, as ueeded, that fund full implementation of the Recovery <br />Actions identified within this opinion, This includes both capital funding and annual base funding, <br /> <br />Capital funding is for planning, design, permitting or other compliance, construction, construction <br />management, replacement of facilities, and the acquisition of interests in land or water, as <br />necessary to cany out the Recovery Program, These capital items include hatchery additions for <br />the genetic conservation and propagation of the endangered fishes, the restoration of floodplain <br />habitat, fish passage, acquisition of water for instream flows (water leases), and the removal or <br />translocation of nonnative fishes. Capital funding of up to $62,000,000 for the Recovery Program <br />is to continue through the year 2005, These activities are substantially cost shared with non- <br />Federal contributions by Upper Basin States and power users, <br /> <br />Base funding is for the operation and maintenance of capital projects, implementation of Recovery <br />Actions other than capital projects, monitoring and research to evaluate the need for or <br />effectiveness of any recovery action, and program management, as necessary to cany out the <br />Recovery Program. Base funding also includes annual funding provided by the Service, <br />Reclamation, Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming under the terms of the 1988 Cooperative <br />Agreement. Base funding for the Recovery Program from power revenues will be up to <br />$4,000,000 per year, adjusted for inflation, <br /> <br />Existing and New Depletions <br /> <br />Existing depletions anticipated to continue into the future, addressed in this biological opiuion, <br />consist of Reclamation and non-Federal depletions as described in the Federal action on page 1. <br />Existing project depletions are defined below. Only the amount of water that was depleted as of <br />September 30,1995, is considered an existing use or depletion of water, except as defined for <br />Green Mountain and Ruedi Reservoirs below. Project depletions above this level are considered <br /> <br />I <br />.~ <br />
