<br />Date: <br /> <br />Report to be available on possible Green River flow easements on land that <br />could be used as razorback sucker habitat. (The area targeted is a 40-mile <br />stretch from Jensen, Utah, downstream to Brennan Bottom, which appears to <br />be good habitat for razorbacks. Easements would be acquired from willing <br />landowners only.) <br />November 1995. <br /> <br />Action: <br /> <br />Action: <br /> <br />final report for Phase I of the flood plain issue paper to be completed. Phase 1 <br />will identify gaps in the habitat restoration program. Committees will decide <br />whether or not to proceed with Phase II, where Colorado and Utah will identi- <br />fy and evaluate cooperative, incentive-based opportunities for protecting the <br />flood plain from further degradation. <br />Dec. 31, 1995. <br /> <br />Date: <br /> <br />Action: <br />Date: <br /> <br />Annual reports to be completed for habitat restoration program components. <br />December 1995. <br /> <br />Date: <br /> <br />Report to be complete on presence of contaminants at sites that could be used <br />as habitat for razorback suckers. (The report will be used to determine which <br />areas are feasible for restoration.) <br />December 1995. <br /> <br />Action: <br /> <br />Action: <br />Date: <br /> <br />final basin-wide monitoring/evaluation plan to be completed. <br />Feb. 28, 1996. <br /> <br />Action: <br />Date: <br /> <br />Construction at Walter Walker to be completed. <br />April 1996. <br /> <br />Questions? <br /> <br />Please call Pat Nelson at (303) 236-2985, ext. 226. <br /> <br />Flaming Gorge Dam operations <br /> <br />A major element of recovery in the Green River is to alter the operation of Flaming Gorge Dain <br />to enhance endangered fish habitat. The fish and Wildlife Service issued a biological opinion on <br />the operation of flaming Gorge Dam in 1991. This opinion contained flow recommendations for <br />the Green River at Jensen, Utah, for July through October. For the rest of the year, it specified a <br />range of experimental test flows. <br /> <br />The biological opinion identified the need to protect releases from Flaming Gorge from possible <br />diversion in habitat occupied by endangered fish. The initial focus was to legally protect Green River <br />flowS from Flaming Gorge to the confluence with the Duchesne River for July through October. <br />Flow protection for the remainder of the year (November through June) and downstream to <br />Canyonlands National Park will be addressed after the revised biological opinion is issued in 1997. <br /> <br />5 <br />
