Determination of Fish Densities, Reproduction and <br /> Recruitment Potentials, and Assessment of the Need for <br /> Augmentation 200,000 <br />7. Monitoring and Data Management 100,000 <br /> TOTAL $1.180,000 <br /> <br />This budget is based upon estimated annual cost of research and recovery <br />effort and fiscal knowledge gained from past activities conducted by the <br />Service, Reclamation, and the States. <br /> <br />In order to achieve the recovery goal in 12 years, (coincident with the Upper <br />Basin goal), this level of annual funding will be needed and should be <br />escalated annually to adjust for inflation. An inflation factor will be <br />calculated on an annual basis using the composite of the Consumer Price Index <br />and initiated in the second year of the program. <br /> <br />The Oversight Committee will review the annual allocation of funds in light of <br />overall program needs and make recommendations concerning future allocations <br />in accordance with the priorities established annually by the Oversight <br />Committee. <br /> <br />5.3 ANNUAL FUNDING SOURCES <br /> <br />Funding reliability is critical to the success of this program to ensure that <br />the program is conducted on a continuous basis, and that high-priority <br />recovery elements are funded every year. The sources of funding for the <br />annual operating budget (Table 5-1) are shown in Table 5-2. Support for <br />annual recovery activities will primarily depend upon existing and new <br />government sources. The availability of future funding from governmental <br />sources is subject to the authorization and appropriation by the Federal and <br />State legislative and tribal governmental bodies. <br /> <br />41 <br />
