law.
To improve scientific understanding
of the downstream ecosystem, periodic
experimental releases from Glen Canyon
Dam were conducted in water years
1996 through 2006. Non-flow actions
were also conducted, including removal
of non-native fish and translocation of
the endangered Kanab ambersnail and
humpback chub. Specific experimental
actions included:
• 1996 test of a Beach Habitat
Building Flow (BHBF) at 45,000 cubic
feet per second (cfs) and translocation of
endangered Kanab ambersnail.
• 2000 test of Low Steady Summer
Flows at 8,000 cfs.
• 2003—2005 block of experimental
actions which included:
Æ Translocation of endangered
humpback chub above Chute Falls.
Æ Winter fluctuating fish suppression
releases (5,000 to 20,000 cfs).
Æ Mechanical removal of non-native
fish near the confluence of the Little
Colorado River to benefit the humpback
chub.
Æ Fall constrained releases to test the
conservation of sediment (6,500 to 9,000
cfs).
Æ 2004 test of a BHBF at 42,000 cfs
immediately following Paria River
sediment inputs.
In addition, drought-induced
reductions in Lake Powell elevations
caused an increase in dam release
temperatures during 2003 to 2005.
Considerable monitoring and research
on endangered fish, sediment
conservation, and other resources in the
Grand Canyon were conducted in
concert with these actions. Among other
documents related to adaptive
management experimentation, two
Environmental Assessments and
Findings of No Significant Impacts were
prepared: Proposed Experimental
Releases from Glen Canyon Dam and
Removal of Non-Native Fish (2002) and
Proposed Experimental Actions for
Water Years 2005–2006—Colorado
River, Arizona, in Glen Canyon National
Recreation Area and Grand Canyon
National Park (2004). These two
documents can be found at the
following Internet location: https://

index.html.
Proposed Action
The proposed action is to develop and
adopt a Long-Term Experimental Plan
that will implement a structured, longterm program of experimentation
(including dam operations,
modifications to Glen Canyon Dam
intake structures, and other non-flow

management actions, such as removal of
non-native fish species) in the Colorado
River below Glen Canyon Dam.
Purpose and Need for Action
The purpose of the proposed action is
to increase scientific understanding of
the ecosystem downstream from Glen
Canyon Dam and to improve and protect
important downstream resources.
Specific hypotheses to be addressed
include the effect of dam release
temperatures; ramp rates; non-native
control; and the timing, duration, and
magnitude of BHBF releases. Adoption
of a Long-Term Experimental Plan is
needed to ensure a continued,
structured application of adaptive
management in such a manner as to
protect, mitigate adverse impacts to, and
improve the values for which Grand
Canyon National Park and Glen Canyon
National Recreation Area were
established, including, but not limited
to natural and cultural resources and
visitor use, consistent with applicable
Federal law. Adoption of a Long-Term
Experimental Plan will assist scientists,
policy makers, and resource managers to
better understand resource management
options, tradeoffs and consequences,
and assist in the long-term operations of
Glen Canyon Dam.
Scoping
The range of alternatives for the
proposed action will be developed
following recommendations provided
by the AMWG and through information
received from upcoming public scoping
meetings. In addition, Reclamation will
utilize information developed through
prior meetings of the AMWG, Technical
Work Group, and Science Planning
Group as relevant information for the
purposes of scoping the upcoming
NEPA process and to develop the
appropriate scope of analysis pursuant
to 40 CFR 1508.25.
Public Disclosure
It is our practice to make comments,
including names, home addresses, home
telephone numbers, and e-mail
addresses of respondents, available for
public review. Individual respondents
may request that we withhold their
names and/or home addresses, etc., but
if you wish us to consider withholding
this information you must state this
prominently at the beginning of your
comments. In addition, you must
present a rationale for withholding this
information. This rationale must
demonstrate that disclosure would
constitute a clearly unwarranted
invasion of privacy. Unsupported
assertions will not meet this burden. In
the absence of exceptional,

documentable circumstances, this
information will be released. We will
always make submissions from

representatives or officials of
organizations or businesses, available
for public inspection in their entirety.
