This guidance package consists of: 1) a list of requested new projects; 2) list of ongoing projects; 3) the FY 95 work plan development schedule; and 4) the format for FY 95 scopes of work. The lists of requested new starts and ongoing projects were developed on the basis of the RIPR~P and input from the technical committees; they are intended to meet specific activities and deadlines in the RIPRAP. Some ongoing biology projects need to have their scopes of work revised (project numbers preceded by an asterisk), others are "ongoing, and on-track," and will reqUire only uDdated scopes of work for FY 95. New and revised biology scopes of work are due April 12 (this includes capital funding projects on bottomland restoration, hatchery planning and construction, and fish passage, which will be reviewed by the Biology Committee). Scopes of work for ongoing, on-track biology projects, water acquisition projects, information and education projects, Program management projects, and the remainder of the capital projects are due June 3. The expected FY 95 budget is identified in the table for each ongoing project. The format for FY 95 scopes of work is similar to last year's with two additions: a) the relationship of the project to the RIPRAP; and b) the principal investigator's past performance on this or similar projects. For ongoing projects, please identify scopes of work by the FY 94 project number; leave the project number blank for new projects. U.S. Rsh and WIldlife Service . U.S. Bureau of Reclamation .
