Dispute Resolution Panel Meeting and 

Technical Conference 

On March 16, 2015, Commission staff, 

in response to the filing of a notice of 

study dispute by the U.S. National 

Marine Fisheries Service on February 

23, 2015, convened a single threeperson Dispute Resolution Panel (Panel) 

pursuant to 18 CFR 5.14(d). 

The Panel will hold a technical 

conference at the time and place 

identified below. The technical 

conference will address the study 

dispute regarding potential effects of the 

La Grange Project (P–14581) on the 

genetic makeup of steelhead/rainbow 

trout in the Tuolumne River. As 

directed by the Commission’s letter 

issued on February 27, 2015, the panel 

will not consider the study dispute on 

Tuolumne River habitats for 

anadromous fish. 

The purpose of the technical session 

is for the disputing agency, applicant, 

and Commission to provide the Panel 

with additional information necessary 

to evaluate the disputed studies. All 

local, state, and federal agencies, Indian 

tribes, and other interested parties are 

invited to attend the meeting as 

observers. The Panel may also request 

information or clarification on written 

submissions as necessary to understand 

the matters in dispute. The Panel will 

limit all input that it receives to the 

specific studies or information in 

dispute and will focus on the 

applicability of such studies or 

information to the study criteria 

stipulated in 18 CFR 5.9(b). If the 

number of participants wishing to speak 

creates time constraints, the Panel may, 

at its discretion, limit the speaking time 

for each participant.
