As far as FOR and the Pit... they didn't work on the Pit. They have about 3 dedicated conservation staff and they can't do every river. They aren't working on the McCloud either. Too many rivers, too few staff, too little money... do the math... FOR can't be everywhere, they aren't TNC or Environmental Defense or those other massive orgs. Their budget is small, they work on a ton of different river issues, not just FERC. As far as I know they are only doing FERC right now on the Klamath and the Merced.
I have not seen the proposed flow schedules, I just know what Cal Trout has advocated for, which was a pretty far cry from a white water flow. I've been out of the country for a couple weeks, so, I'll start looking into it. The numbers will tell the real story... next time you post up about how the sky is falling (or water is rising) try to put the data in there too since now I have to go and find it. If the flow regime is simply that they'll gauge at the dam and not at the creek, then there really is nothing to this... if the agencies disregarded Cal Trout's desires, that's another.
