MEMORANDUM 

To: Technical Work Group 

From: John Hamill, Chief, Grand Canyon Monitoring and Research Center, Southwest 

 Biological Science Center, US Geological Survey, Flagstaff, Arizona 

Subject: Preliminary Fiscal Year 2010-11 Glen Canyon Dam Adaptive Management Program 

 Budget

Attached is the subject budget for your consideration. The draft budget was developed based on 

guidance provided in the: 

• Monitoring and Research Plan (MRP) to Support the Glen Canyon Dam (GCD) Adaptive 

Management Program (AMP) which was approved by the Adaptive Management Work 

Group (AMWG) in August 2007, and 

• The March 2008 Environmental Assessment (EA) and related Conservation Measures 

included in the recent Fish and Wildlife Service Biological Opinion (BO) on the 

operation of GCD. 

In addition, GCMRC considered input from the Budget Ad Hoc Work Group in formulating this 

budget proposal. An amended MRP to reflect the EA and BO will be sent out around the end of 

the month for review at the next TWG meeting. 

 

The purpose of the preliminary budget is to identify the priorities for the FY 10-11 work plan, 

including ongoing project, discontinued projects, and new initiatives. The preliminary budget 

will provide the basis for the development of the FY 10 11 work plan. The proposed budget 

provides for the continued implementation of a number of ongoing projects included in the 

approved FY 09 Work Plan and Budget, although funding for projects was adjusted to reflect 

cost of living increases, increased salary costs, logistical support, past performance, etc. Major 

emphasis in FY 10 and 11 will be to provide increased emphasis on data analysis and reporting 

and moving several projects from R&D to Core Monitoring status. 

General descriptions of each of the ongoing projects can be found in the MRP; more detailed 

descriptions are contained in the FY 09 AMP Work Plan and Budget. Major changes or 

revisions to the FY 10-11 budget proposal include: 

Goal 2 Native Fishes 
• Establishment of mainstem fish monitoring and LCR monitoring as a Core Monitoring 

Projects beginning in FY 10 (BIO2.M1.10 and BIO2.M2.10, respectively). The scope 

and budget for these monitoring efforts will be determined based on the outcome of the 

PEP review planned for May 2009. For the purposes of the preliminary budget we 

assumed that funding levels for theses efforts would continue at FY 09 levels, adjusted 

for inflation. 

• Transfer lead and funding responsibility for the nonnative fish control project 

(BIO2.R16.09) to an appropriate management agency beginning in FY 10. GCMRC 

believes this is no longer a research or experimental activity, and as such, is more 

appropriately implemented by a management agency using funding from outside the 

AMP science budget. GCMRC will continue to design and oversee monitoring efforts for 

this action and possibly provide logistical support, if needed. Our primary concern is that 

funding major management or compliance actions will seriously erode the AMP science 

program over time. 

• Establishing a new project in FY 11 to provide science support for implementation of the 

Non Native Fishes Management Plan that will be completed in FY 10 (BIO2.R17.11). 

• Providing GCMRC biology staff support associated with the Mainstem Fish Survival 

Project (BIO2.R9.10) to work with the GCMRC’s Senior Ecologist to develop more 

robust ecosystem models (PLAN12.P1.10). 

• Beginning in FY 10, direct funding from the nonnative control pilot testing project 

(BIO2.R.6.09) to the Mainstem Fish Monitoring project (BIO2.M4.10) to increase the 

ability to detect changes in abundance or distribution of nonnative fishes. 

Goal 4. Rainbow Trout 

• Establishment of Lees Ferry Trout monitoring as Core Monitoring Project beginning in 

FY 10 (BIO4.M2.10). The scope and budget for the monitoring effort will be determined 

based on the outcome of the PEP review planned for May 2009. For the purposes of the 

preliminary budget we assumed that funding levels for trout redds, larvae, and adults 

monitoring would continue at FY 09 levels, adjusted for inflation. 

Goal 6. Riparian/Springs 

• Establishment of vegetation mapping and transects as Core Monitoring Project beginning 

in FY 10 (BIO6.M1.10 and BIO2.M2.11, respectively). Vegetation mapping would 

occur every four years, following system-wide remotely sensed overflights (for example, 

in FY10-11, following 2009 imagery data collection), while vegetation transects would 

be conducted in the field every other year beginning in FY 11. 

• Establishment of a revived terrestrial habitat monitoring project (BIO6.R4.10) focused on 

arthropod. Terrestrial monitoring would focus on selected avifauna and arthropods as 

indicator species for ecosystem responses to dam operations and the associated 

monitoring protocols would be conducted every other year beginning in FY 10 

(alternating with vegetation transects). 

•

Goal 7 Quality of Water Monitoring & Modeling Research and Support 

• Enhanced research and development of flow, temperature and sediment modeling during 

FY09-10, with a default of returning to lower level of ongoing funding support of 
modeling linked with water quality monitoring in FY11 and beyond. 

• FY11 support level contingent upon evaluation of progress made by end of FY10 relative 

to management needs for enhanced predictive capabilities. 

• If enhanced R&D in model development needs to continue in FY11, then additional 

funding will be required above the basic modeling support linked with water quality 

monitoring shown in the draft budget. 

Goal 8. Sediment 

• Suspend channel and sandbar mapping in FY 10 and focus on analysis and reporting of 

data collected in FY 09 and before (proof of concept for managers to evaluate relative to 

identified sediment monitoring information needs). If this sediment monitoring protocol 

moves from provisional to approved for long term implementation, then beginning in FY 

11, channel mapping will occur annually and measurements at the NAU sandbar study 

sites would occur every other year. 

Goal 9 Recreation 

• Suspend sandbar and campground mapping field work in FY 10 (REC9.R1.10) and focus 

on analysis and reporting of data collected in the past, and PEP Review to determine the 

scope and direction of future monitoring. 

• Establish sand bar and campable area monitoring (REC9.M1.11) as a Core monitoring 

Project beginning in FY 11 

• Include staff support for maintenance, updating and analysis of the information in the 

GIS Campsite Atlas (REC9.R3.10). 

• Discontinue the project to compile and analyze existing safety data 

Goal 11 Cultural 

• Reduce the scope and budget of the archaeological site monitoring R& D project to 

eliminate NPS funding, and reduce survey and cooperator support in FY10 and 11; 

assumes closer integration with NPS-funded monitoring efforts beginning in FY09. A 

final PEP review will be conducted in FY11 to determine the long term monitoring 

program. 

Goal 12. DASA 

• Following the 2009 remote sensing overflight mission, establishment of a new initiative 

(DASA12.D9.10) intended to achieve more highly integrated monitoring, analyses and 

reporting - coordinate/manage various remote sensing imagery acquisition, processing 

and change detection projects including vegetation mapping, Legacy Data Conversion, 

Goal 8 Channel Change, and sandbar and campable area mapping/change detection. 

Funding is derived from existing projects (Legacy data conversion, Integrated Analysis & 

Modeling), 

• Establishment of a new initiative to synthesize the results of the 1996, 2004, and 2008 

HFE using a portion of the Experimental Funds (DASA12.D10.10), 

• Establishment of a new initiative to provide study design and statistical support for 

GCMRC science projects (DASA12.D8.10). 
To achieve a balanced budget a number of projects had to be scaled back to accommodate the 

increased funding being requested for several new or expanded projects and for other nondiscretionary increases in costs for continuing projects. These adjustments are noted in the 

attached spreadsheet. 

The preliminary budget does not account for a potential High Flow Experiment in FY 10/11. 

Currently, a HFE has not been authorized for FY 10/11. Beginning in FY 10, approximately 

$400,000 should be available to support additional experimentation. GCMRC estimates the 

study costs for conducting the next HFE test at approximately $500,000 to $750,000. 

After considering recommendations from the TWG, AMWG and DOI agencies, GCMRC, 

consistent with our established process, will develop detailed work plans for each of the projects 

that will be submitted to the Budget Ad hoc Group, TWG and AMWG for final review and 

consideration. 

Your participation in this review process is appreciated.
