After two years of hard work, the Instream Flow Council (IFC) and American Fisheries Society (AFS) draft feasibility assessment to establish a national instream flow and water level conservation training and research center (Center) is now available for download and review below.

The 10-person Steering Committee (SC) is currently seeking public review and online feedback of this document from all interested stakeholders for accuracy, relevance, and need for this Center using our online template (below). We also wish to know if we may have overlooked important elements, or perhaps have not described some components clearly.

Responses will be reviewed by the entire SC to help us finalize this report and improve the prospects for successful implementation of the Center.

Due to the potential for a high response rate, the SC may not provide individual responses unless specifically requested.
