| A | 165 | Produce Environmental Compliance Documentation | NOAA-Fisheries ESA Research Permit | Wild steelhead adults and juveniles in the Wind River are listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and NOAA-Fisheries requires that WDFW obtain a scientific research permit for both adult and juvenile trapping. Permit application are submitted to NOAA-Fisheries in November, a year to date report of take and mortalities in December, and final report in January. In addition, take and mortality may need to be periodically updated through out the year. | | |
| B | 189 | Coordination-Columbia Basinwide | Landowner Coordination | Landowner contacts for access to conduct salmon counts, steelhead snorkel surveys, and juvenile out-migrant trapping. | | |
| C | 99 | Outreach and Education | Wind River TAG and Other Meetings | Attend Technical Advisory Group meeting concerning the Wind River subbasin (approximately 4 per year) and attend watershed council meetings, workshops, and conferences as needed. | | |
| D | 119 | Manage and Administer Projects | Project Oversight | Administrative work in support of BPA's programmatic requirements such as metric reporting, financial reporting (e.g., accruals), and development of an SOW package (includes draft SOW, budget, spending plan, and property inventory).

| F | 157 | Collect/Generate/Validate Field and Lab Data | Collect Trap Data and Enter Into Database | Bio-sample trapped juveniles and adults and enter collected data into computer databases. This includes the collection of lengths, scales, location of fin clips, mark type and location, and tag numbers. Also, includes creel, snorkel and spawning surveys | Steelhead (O. mykiss) - Lower Columbia River DPS (Threatened) | Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Lower Columbia River ESU (Threatened), Cutthroat Trout, Coastal (O. clarkii clarkii)- Resident Populations, Freshwater Mussels, Trout, Brook (Salvelinus fontinalis), Trout, Bull (S. confluentus) (Threatened), Trout, Rainbow (Oncorhynchus mykiss) |
| G | 158 | Mark/Tag Animals | Juvenile and Adult Tagging | Adult and juvenile population estimates are estimated using mark-recapture methods. All steelhead smolts in good condition are tagged with either CWT and Pan jet mark or PIT tag. All adult steelhead are tagged with two Floy tags. Chinook are tagged with chic and or carcass tags. | Steelhead (O. mykiss) - Lower Columbia River DPS (Threatened) | Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Lower Columbia River ESU (Threatened), Cutthroat Trout, Coastal (O. clarkii clarkii)- Resident Populations, Freshwater Mussels, Trout, Brook (Salvelinus fontinalis), Trout, Bull (S. confluentus) (Threatened), Trout, Rainbow (Oncorhynchus mykiss) |

| K | 161 | Disseminate Raw/Summary Data and Results | Summary Memos | Summary data for adult and juvenile salmon and steelhead is made available periodically throughout the year. | All Anadromous Fish | |
| L | 185 | Produce CBFish Status Report | Periodic Status Reports for BPA | The Contractor shall report on the status of milestones and deliverables in Pisces. Reports shall be completed either monthly or quarterly as determined by the BPA COTR.
