obtain consent from all affected water users and regulators and provide assurance that the 

 pumping operations will result in specified flows for salmon and steelhead in the Umatilla 

 Basin at levels which the fish and wildlife agencies and tribes agree are suitable for low, 

 average, and above average water conditions. The Bureau of Reclamation shall fund state 

 and tribal fish and wildlife agency monitoring and evaluation studies to determine the 

 biological effectiveness of this measure. [Source 704(d)(2)Umatilla ] 



(18) After development of relevant subbasin plans under program section 203. in 

 consultation with the fish and wildlife agencies and tribes, the Corps of Engineers shall 

 fund studies to determine the feasibility of constructing a reservoir for storage and flow 

 augmentation in the Walla Walla River for the protection, mitigation and enhancement of 

 anadromous fish. The study also will consider the need for additional stream gauge 

 stations. As a part of the study, the existing river flow regime should be documented along 

 with the development of instream flow incremental method data and estimates of weighted 

 usable area with existing and augmented storage conditions. A water flow management 

 plan will be developed demonstrating how existing water rights and instream flows for fish 

 will be achieved under varying water conditions. [Sources 704(b) WDG-2. 704(d)'MFCC ]
