Provide and Protect. INSTREAM FLOWS (HABITAT MANAGEMENT) I.A. Evaluate methods for defining habitat-flow needs and select methods most appropriate to specific stream reaches. I.A.1. Review instream flow methodologies and assess the technical adequacy of current flow recommendations. PD Complete "Guru II." Center for Public-Private Sector Cooperation, 1993. I.A.2. Develop recommendations for integrating geomorphology and food web studies into Recovery Program. PD Complete Xxxxxxx, et al, 1996. I.A.3. Evaluate CDOW's instream flow methodologies and flow recommendations for warmwater native fishes (Xxxxxxxx) as they relate to flows needed for endangered fish recovery. FWS/PD Complete The Biology Committee reviewed Xxxx Xxxxxxxx’x report in April 2005, raised numerous questions regarding the application of this methodology to endangered fish flow recommendations, and declined to act on the report. The Service does not support adopting Xxxxxxxx’x methodology as the standard methodology for making flow recommendations. I.A.4. Develop strategic plan for geomorphic research and monitoring. Program Complete LaGory et al., 2003. I.A.4.a. Develop strategy and design for studies to address geomorphic research priorities. Geo. Work Group Complete A panel of geomorphologists met in 2013 to build on/interpret the findings of the Project 85f report and to develop research / management recommendations to assist the Recovery Program in evaluating spring peak flow recommendations. A draft White Paper summarizing their input was submitted to the PD's office in January 2014 and became the Peak Flow Technical Supplement report. The report was approved by the WAC/BC on 1/14/16 and was considered approved by Management Committee (it does not change flow recommendations). The Supplement offers a range of study approaches and prioritizes river reaches to evaluate the peak flow aspects of the Recovery Program’s flow recommendations; the recommended priority research will be used as reference for the Green and Gunnison river study plans. This recommended studies and monitoring to address high priority information needs have been incorporated into the RIPRAP and are noted as "Peak Flow Tech Supplement priority." I.A.4.b. Conduct needed geomorphic research and monitoring. See Xxxxxxxx et al. 2013 and I.A.4.a, above. I.A.4.b.(1) Periodically monitor future channel narrowing and compare to historic rates using aerial or satellite imagery in the Green River (between Yampa and White rivers), Gunnison River (Ha...
