<br />RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> <br />There was no documentable evidence obtained from this evaluation to <br />conclude that sub-adult or adult Colorado pikeminnow or other native fish used <br />the fish passage at the GVIC Diversion Dam. Certainly, more field data needs to <br />be collected at this site before any meaningful conclusions can be made as to the <br />usefulness of this type of fish passage for Colorado pikeminnow and other native <br />fishes. Therefore, no further biological recommendations are provided from this <br />study. <br /> <br />LITERATURE CITED <br /> <br />Burdick. B. D., and L. R. Kaeding. 1990.
