==LTEMP Experimental Action: Aquatic Resource-Related Experimental Treatments (BA, pages 30-41)==
'''Low summer flows''' may be tested in the second 10 years of the LTEMP period,
for the purpose of achieving warmer river temperatures (> 14°C) to benefit
humpback chub and other native species. Under low summer flows, daily
fluctuations would be less than under base operations (e.g., approximately 2,000
cfs). Investigating the anticipated effects of and options for providing warmer
water temperatures in the mainstem Colorado River through Grand Canyon is an
identified management action in the Humpback Chub Recovery Goals (USFWS
2002a).
