<p><font size='+0'>The Secretary of the Interior Bruce Babbitt, created the GCDAMP in response to the 1995 Environmental Impact Statement on the Operations of Glen Canyon Dam.  The GCDAMP is responsible for implementation of the Grand Canyon Protection Act of 1992, to monitor the operation of Glen Canyon Dam, to ensure the dam is operated in compliance with a range of laws and regulations and mitigate any significant environmental impacts. This program is considered to be one of the most successful examples of adaptive management in the country.

The GCDAMP is comprised of a variety of stakeholders with disparate interests in the resource. They range from federal and state agencies, Native American Indian Tribes, the Colorado River Basin States, electrical utility consortia, recreational groups, and environmental groups. The AMWG strives for balance and consensus on how to protect downstream resources and in their recommendations to the Secretary on the operation of the Dam.

TWG is comprised of technical representatives from each group represented by AMWG and performs tasks assigned by that group. Tasks include, developing criteria and standards for monitoring and research programs, providing periodic reviews and updates, developing resource management questions for the design of monitoring and research by the GCMRC and providing information for preparing annual resource reports and other reports for the AMWG. GCMRC is dedicated to providing credible, objective scientific information to the GCDAMP through the TWG on the effects of operating Glen Canyon Dam and other management actions on the downstream resources of the Colorado River ecosystem.

== '''Vision and Mission''' ==
 +
The combined Vision and Mission statement reads as follows:
 +
*The Grand Canyon is a homeland for some, sacred to many, and a national treasure for all. In honor of past generations, and on behalf of those of the present and future, we envision an ecosystem where the resources and natural processes are in harmony under a stewardship worthy of the Grand Canyon.
 +
*We advise the Secretary of the Interior on how best to protect, mitigate adverse impacts to, and improve the integrity of the Colorado River ecosystem affected by Glen Canyon Dam, including natural biological diversity (emphasizing native biodiversity), traditional cultural properties’ spiritual values, and cultural, physical, and recreational resources through the operation of Glen Canyon Dam and other means.
 +
*We do so in keeping with the federal trust responsibilities to Indian tribes, in compliance with applicable federal, state, and tribal laws, including the water delivery obligations of the Law of the River, and with due consideration to the economic value of power resources.
 +
*This will be accomplished through our long-term partnership utilizing the best available scientific and other information through an adaptive ecosystem management process. [http://www.riversimulator.org/Resources/GCDAMP/GCDAMPchronicle/StrategicPlanGCDamp2001.pdf]
