“the first was a monitoring data needs gap analysis. And here they were suggesting that we try to identify important sampling gaps and deficiencies and determine how the allocation strategy might perform if we were to bring those gaps in, and it would better link our monitoring methods with our end user requirements. And then the other recommendation that they all seem to have, which was a SWOT for monitoring approaches, that's a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats analysis for the two approaches.”

They did have two other recommendations that were kind of not directly part of the review, but they all sort of mentioned these. And the first was a monitoring data needs gap analysis. And here they were suggesting that we try to identify important sampling gaps and deficiencies and determine how the allocation strategy might perform if we were to bring those gaps in, and it would better link our monitoring methods with our end user requirements. And then the other recommendation that they all seem to have, which was a SWOT for monitoring approaches, that's a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats analysis for the two approaches. Recall that we have two tools available to us currently.
