RECOVERY ACTION PLANS. The tasks in these Recovery Action Plans are prioritized by their schedules. Schedules are shown where they have been identified (if all the year columns for an activity are blank, then the activity has not yet been scheduled). If a completion date has been identified, it is shown under the appropriate fiscal year. Where specific dates have not been identified, but an action is ongoing, beginning, or ending in a year, an "X" appears in that year's column. The "who" column identifies the lead responsible agency (listed first) and any cooperating agencies. The status column is used where additional narrative is needed to explain the duration, status, etc. of an activity. Once again, the caret ">" identifies those recovery actions which are expected to result in a measurable population response, a measurable improvement in habitat for the fishes, legal protection of flows needed for recovery, or a reduction in the threat of immediate extinction. An asterisk (*) identifies those activities which will contribute to the RIPRAP serving as a reasonable and prudent alternative to the likely destruction or adverse modification of critical habitat. The Recovery Action Plans are formatted in stepdown-outline tables. This is reflected in the numbering system and indenting. Some actions which assess options or the feasibility of a recovery action are followed by a subsequent implementation step, and others are not, depending on how feasible the implementation step is considered to be at this time. The following abbreviations are used to identify lead/cooperating agencies: BR U.S. Bureau of Reclamation CO State of Colorado CDA Colorado Department of Agriculture CDOPR Colorado Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation CDOW Colorado Division of Wildlife CRWCD Colorado River Water Conservation District CWCB Colorado Water Conservation Board FWS U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service -ES Ecological Services -FR Fishery Resources -RW Refuges and Wildlife -WR Water Resources LFL Larval Fish Laboratory NWCD Northern Water Conservancy District PD Recovery Program Director TBD To be determined UT State of Utah UDWR Utah Division of Wildlife Resources UTWR Utah Division of Water Resources WAC Water Acquisition Committee
