<br />Your Phoenix Office is taking the lead on the next round of
<br />review which will be held on August 17 and 18, 1989 in Flagstaff,
<br />AZ. We anticipate that the Phoenix Office will be developing an
<br />agenda for that meeting. We request that the topic of
<br />implementation strategies and preparation of Requests for
<br />proposals be added to that agenda. Upon finalization of these
<br />study plans we can begin developing the necessary transfer of
<br />funds necessary for Fish & Wildlife Service fiscal year 1990
<br />participation.

<br />We request that your office review these draft study plans and
<br />provide us with your comments by August 15, 1989. Our intent is
<br />to complete the review and finalize these study plans so that we
<br />can implement the program in fiscal year 1990. without complete
<br />and final study plans, we cannot program fiscal year 1990 monies
<br />and the program may be delayed.
<br />
<br />Please contact this office if you have any questions. Regards.
