+ | The GCMRC will continue as one of the elements of GCDAMP, consistent with and for the purposes of the 1992 GCPA. The GCMRC will continue to function as a long-term monitoring and research center as was envisioned with its establishment in 1995 to provide scientific advice to GCDAMP, including the Secretary of the Interior, his/her designee, DOI managers, and AMWG. The Assistant Secretary for Water and Science or his/her designee, the Director of USGS or his/her designee, the Commissioner of Reclamation and his/her designee, and the Director of the NPS and his/her designee shall continue to provide policy and programmatic guidance to the GCMRC Chief and review the policies and protocols that govern the operations of GCMRC at least every 5 years. The GCRMC leads the coordination of the monitoring and research of the CRE and facilitates communication and information exchange between GCDAMP, including scientists, DOI, AMWG, Technical Working Group (TWG), and the Science Advisors Program. The GCMRC will be independent from any single stakeholder within the AMWG. The GCMRC will continue conducting monitoring and research activities as guided by the LTEMP FEIS and ROD priorities and commitments. The administrative responsibilities of GCMRC will continue to include managing resource data, reporting monitoring and research results, administering contracts and developing annual research and monitoring reports, and providing technical resource advice related to the GCPA.

The Grand Canyon Research and Monitoring Center (GCMRC) was created to fulfill the mandate in the Grand Canyon Protection Act for the “establishment and implementation of a long-term monitoring and research program to ensure that Glen Canyon Dam is operated in a manner that protects the values for which the Grand Canyon National Park and the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area were created.” The Grand Canyon Monitoring and Research Center serves as the science center for the Glen Canyon Dam Adaptive Management Program. |
