<br />01782 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />8, Manage all data collected as part of the Adaptive Management Program. <br />Serve as a repository (source of information) for others (stakeholders, <br />students, public, etc.) in various fonnats (paper, electronic, etc.) about the <br />effects of operating Glen Canyon Dam on the downstream resources of the <br />Colorado River Ecosystem and the Adaptive Management Program. <br />9, Administer research proposals through a competitive contract process, as <br />appropriate. <br /> <br />10. Manage GCMRC finances and personnel efficiently and effectively. <br /> <br />ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT WORK GROUP <br />PROGRAM GUIDANCE <br /> <br />GCMRC does not operate in a vacuum, but instead is directly linked to the GCD <br />AMP program by the Adaptive Management Work Group (AMWG), which clarifies <br />science needs, and its parent organization USGS, which provides critical science support. <br />GCMRCs most critical role is to provide the highest quality science information to its <br />stakeholders, the Adaptive Management Work Group (AMWG). <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />In responding to its primary charge, GCMRC will align its Strategic Science Plan <br />and programs to the goals, objectives, and information needs in the GCD AMP Strategic <br />Plan, developed by the Adaptive Management Work Group (AMWG). The GCD AMP <br />Strategic Plan is the keystone document upon which GCMRC will measure our success <br />and relevance in terms of accomplishing our vision and mission. <br /> <br />The GCD AMP Strategic Plan contains goals, management objectives, and <br />information needs that guide the entire Glen Canyon Dam Adaptive Management <br />Program. It is not the intent of this plan to list each ofthese again here. The reader is <br />instead referred to the AMP plan. However, the research, development and monitoring <br />programs of the GCMRC will be driven by these elements. And, the relevance of our <br />research and monitoring outputs will be measured by their contribution to these goals and <br />needs. <br /> <br />PARENT ORGANIZATION SUPPORT <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />GCMRC resides in the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS) of the U.S. Department <br />of the Interior (001). The Mission of the 001 is to protect and provide access to our <br />Nation's natural and cultural heritage and honors our trust responsibilities to Indian <br />Tribes and our commitments to island communities. The 001 has established five <br />Departmental goals that encompass the major responsibilities of the Department. These <br />goals provide a framework for the strategic plans of DOl's bureaus and GCMRC. <br /> <br />I.
