Ongoing Current FY 2015 Idaho Department of Fish and Game, U.S. Forest Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Work type not yet selected Labor type not yet selected Ongoing monitoring and database management is conducted by BOR, FS, and IDFG. BOR holds an annual bull trout coordination meeting to facilitate communication and cooperation between partner agencies in the Boise and Payette watersheds. These efforts can be more efficient/refined when IFWO starts holding regular working group meetings for the SW Idaho Core Areas. However, additional discussion and coordination between agencies is needed and it is currently unlikely any working group meetings will occur before 2020. Reduced staff and budgets are issues for all agencies.
