Hakalau Forest National Wildlife Refuge Comprehensive Conservation Plan One-time costs are project costs that have a start-up cost associated with them, such as purchasing a new vehicle for wildlife and habitat monitoring, or designing and installing an interpretive sign. Some are full project costs for those projects that can be completed in 3 years or less. One-time costs can include the cost of temporary or term salary associated with a short-term project. Salary for existing and new positions, and operational costs, are reflected in operational (or recurring) costs. Funds for one-time costs will be sought through increases in Refuge base funding, special project funds, and grants. Projects listed below show one-time costs, such as those associated with building and facility needs including offices, road improvements, or new signs. One-time costs are also associated with projects such as habitat restoration, invasive plant and animal control, and research. Operational costs reflect Refuge spending of base funds allocated each year. These are also known as recurring costs and are usually associated with day-to-day operations and projects that last longer than 3 years. The CCP will require increased funding for new or expanded public uses and facilities, habitat restoration and conservation activities, and new monitoring needs. The table below includes operational expenditures such as supplies, utilities, and maintenance costs. Project costs include seasonal staff needed year after year to accomplish each project; these staffing costs are not isolated in this table but are included as part of the entire project cost. Staffing costs are addressed in table C- 4 later in this appendix. Note that for the implementation timeline, priority is not indicated by the 5-year interval identified. If a strategy is identified for implementation in the first 5-year interval, this does not indicate priority, but rather fiscal and logistical realities that allow for that activity to occur the first 5 years. Additionally, some strategies are sequential and depend on other strategies or may require additional planning (e.g., step-down plans) before they can be implemented, thereby moving them into the second or third 5-year interval segments. Also note that additional explanatory text for activities identified in tables C-1 and C-2 can be found under sections outlining maintenance costs and partnering projects. Funding for the Refuge in FY2010 was $1,168,098. Table C-1. One-time Costs Related to CCP Implementation.
