This project involves the development of an approach to evaluate reaches which favor formation and or accumulation of frazilice in the lower part of the lemhi rivers under a range of discharges and meteorological conditions. Activities to be performedthe recipient will study the hydromorphological and meteorological conditions that are conducive to the formation and accumulation of frazil ICE in the lower lemhi river to help identify reaches where frazilice most likely are formed and transported and which locations may potentially accumulate them.expected deliverables or outcomesto develop a model to assess the risk of frazilice formation transport and potential accumulation in the lemhi river during winter conditions.intended beneficiariesfunding for this agreement will be used to support projects intended to improve habitat for esalisted steelhead and chinook salmon. These projects are for the benefit of the species and by extension constitute a public benefit. Subrecipient activities if known or specified at time of awardn a
