What the grant funds
The San Juan River Basin Endangered Fish Recovery Program (Recovery Program) was established in 1992 and is comprised of federal, state, and tribal entities that work cooperatively towards recovery of endangered Colorado pikeminnow and razorback sucker. The Recovery Program has identified a lack of rearing habitat as the factor that most limits recruitment of razorback suckers to the juvenile life stage and ultimately recovery of the species in the San Juan Basin. Although flows from Navajo Reservoir would ideally maintain and restore these types of habitats, sufficient water has not been available for release and the Recovery Program has concluded that non-flow alternatives to provide rearing habitat need to be implemented. The purpose of the wetland is to entrain and rear larval razorback sucker. The Recovery Program already supported development of a conceptual design (30%) for the wetland along the San Juan River immediately south of Bluff, Utah. The goal of this next stage of the project is to build on the elements included in the 30% design to complete 60% design.
