Continue monitoring genetic integrity of Pecos Pupfish in Salt Creek and assure that the upper 2-3 miles of Salt Creek does not have Sheepshead Minnow hybrids. Also, document that the existing barrier continues to prevent upstream movement; determine what would serve as an effective barriers if the need existed to construct them to protect Pecos Pupfish from hybridization.
