GCDAMP Budget

GCDAMP Budget and Work Plan The goal of the Triennial Budget and Workplan (TWP) is to reduce the effort expended on the budget process while improving the effectiveness of the Grand Canyon Monitoring and Research Center (GCMRC), Technical Work Group (TWG), and AMWG. The GCDAMP will develop a TWP the first year of the process. Then, in the second year the GCDAMP would implement the year-two budget and make relatively minor corrections primarily related to changes in CPI and needs at GCMRC and the Bureau of Reclamation. In the third year the GCDAMP would consider minor changes to the year three budget to allow for changes in projects or potential important new starts not envisioned during the development of the triennial budget. The major components of the TWP would include: Three-year budget spreadsheets, work plans, and hydrographs, Modifications of the year-three budget based on specific criteria, Fiscal reporting, including expenditures for the previous fiscal year (mid-year and end end-of year reports), Project progress reports, including an annual reporting meeting in January, and Utilization of the Budget Ad Hoc Group (BAHG) to interface with Reclamation and GCMRC in developing a draft TWP, and to help the TWG develop budget recommendations for AMWG consideration.

GCDAMP Strategic Plan The GCDAMP Strategic Plan (AMPSP) is a long-term plan drafted in August 2001 by GCDAMP and GCMRC participants that identifies the AMWG’s vision, mission, principles, goals, management objectives, information needs, and management actions.	LTEMP Science Plan The LTEMP Science Plan describe a strategy by which monitoring and research data in the natural and social sciences will be collected, analyzed, and provided to DOI, its bureaus, and to the GCDAMP in support of implementation of LTEMP.	Core Monitoring Plan The GCMRC Core Monitoring Plan (CMP) describes the consistent, long-term, repeated measurements using scientifically accepted protocols to measure status and trends of key resources to answer specific questions. Core monitoring is implemented on a fixed schedule regardless of budget or other circumstances (for example, water year, experimental flows, temperature control, stocking strategy, nonnative control, etc.) affecting target resources.	Monitoring and Research Plan The GCMRC Monitoring and Research Plan (MRP) specifies (1) core monitoring activities, (2) research and development activities, and (3) long-term experimental activities consistent with the strategies and priorities established in this SSP to be conducted over the next 5 years to address some of the strategic science questions associated with AMWG priority questions.	Budget and Work Plan The GCMRC Triennial Work Plan (TWP) identifies the scope, objectives, and budget for monitoring and research activities planned for a 3-year period. When completed, the TWP will be consistent with the MRP.

The current balance of the experimental fund at the end of the FY2007 is anticipated to be approximately $900,000. An additional $500,000 will be set aside by the GCMRC annually in an account at Reclamation to fund the BHBF tests and other research related to experimental efforts.1 Deposits to the experimental account will cease when the balance reaches $2.5 million.
