program. To be eligible for participation,
lenders must submit an Expression of
Interest that demonstrates the eligibility
of the lender to participate in the

public comment. The Refuge Criteria
provide a common methodology, or
standard, for efficient use of water by
Federal Wildlife Refuges, State Wildlife
Management Areas and Resource
Conservation Districts that receive water
under provisions of the Central Valley
Project Improvement Act (CVPIA). They
document the process and format by
which Refuge Water Management Plans
(Plans) should be prepared and
submitted to Reclamation as part of the
Refuge/District Water Supply Contracts
and Memoranda of Agreement. The
Refuge Criteria refer to Refuges, Wildlife
Areas, and Resource Conservation
Districts as Refuges. Those Refuges that
entered into water supply contracts with
Reclamation as a result of the CVPIA
and subsequent Department of the
Interior administrative review processes
are required to prepare Plans using the
Refuge Criteria.

In
response to the Central Valley Project
Improvement Act of 1992 and a 1995
Department of the Interior
administrative review process, the
Interagency Coordinated Program for
Wetland and Water Use Planning (ICP)
was formed. The ICP was comprised of
representatives from the Bureau of
Reclamation, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, the California Department of
Fish and Game, and the Grassland
Resource Conservation District. The ICP
developed the 1998 Task Force Report,
which outlines past, present, and future
wetland planning and management
issues and a methodology for Refuge
Criteria. To continue the work of the
now disbanded ICP, an Interagency
Refuge Water Management Team
(IRWMT) was formed composed of the
same agencies to continue working on
wetland issues such as water delivery,
including additional work on wetland
Refuge Criteria. The IRWMT used the
1998 Task Force Report and
