     A165Produce Environmental Compliance DocumentationProvide environmental compliance information to BPA for projects on Forest Service LandsAll applicable NEPA, ESA and cultural resources consultation will be completed for all contract activities by the Clearwater National Forest.
     B33Decommission Road/Relocate RoadWhite-White II Road DecommissioningExcessive road density was defined as one of the major contributors to degraded habitat condition in Lolo Creek for both aquatic and terrestrial species (Upper Lolo Creek Ecosystem Assessment at the Watershed Scale and Clearwater Subbasin Assessment). Road densities in the Lolo Creek watershed are 4.8 miles per square mile, and the target road density is 1.0 mile per square mile. The Clearwater National Forest (CNF) and the Nez Perce Tribe (NPT) have worked together since 1996 to decommission roads on National Forest lands under a watershed restoration partnership. In 2004 NPT and CNF personnel began surveying and prioritizing roads in the White-White Creek basin. Initial road decommissioning began in the White-White area in 2004, continued in 2008, and this work element will continue to decommission roads that have been previously identified and prioritized in this basin.Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Snake River Fall ESU (Threatened), Steelhead (O. mykiss) - Snake River DPS (Threatened)Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Snake River Spring/Summer (not listed), Cutthroat Trout, Westslope (O. c. lewisi), Lamprey, Pacific (Entosphenus tridentata), Trout, Rainbow (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
     C33Decommission Road/Relocate RoadYakus Creek Road DecommissioningExcessive road density was defined as one of the major contributors to degraded habitat condition in Lolo Creek for both aquatic and terrestrial species (Upper Lolo Creek Ecosystem Assessment at the Watershed Scale and Clearwater Subbasin Assessment). Road densities in the Lolo Creek watershed are 4.8 miles per square mile, and the target road density is 1.0 mile per square mile. The Clearwater National Forest (CNF) and the Nez Perce Tribe (NPT) have worked together since 1996 to decommission roads on National Forest lands under a watershed restoration partnership. In 2006 - 2008 NPT and CNF personnel surveyed and prioritized roads in the Yakus Creek basin. This work element will begin the decommissioning of the roads that have been previously identified and prioritized in this basin.Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Snake River Fall ESU (Threatened), Steelhead (O. mykiss) - Snake River DPS (Threatened)Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Snake River Spring/Summer (not listed), Cutthroat Trout, Westslope (O. c. lewisi), Lamprey, Pacific (Entosphenus tridentata), Trout, Rainbow (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
     D184Install Fish Passage StructureReplace Mox Creek #2 CulvertA BPA funded culvert inventory and assessment was completed by the NPT for the entire Lolo Creek watershed in 2004. The Mox Creek #2 culvert on Road 5192 was identified as a high priority for replacement in the watershed as it is undersized and does not pass all life stages of fish. This work element will return fish passage to 1.5 miles of stream by replacing the existing culvert that is a spring Chinook and steelhead migration barrier. The culvert is located in Sec.13, T35N, R6E.Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Snake River Fall ESU (Threatened), Steelhead (O. mykiss) - Snake River DPS (Threatened)Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Snake River Spring/Summer (not listed), Cutthroat Trout, Westslope (O. c. lewisi), Lamprey, Pacific (Entosphenus tridentata), Trout, Rainbow (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
     E184Install Fish Passage StructureRemove Mox Creek #3 CulvertA BPA funded culvert inventory and assessment was completed by the NPT for the entire Lolo Creek watershed in 2004. The Mox Creek #3 culvert on Road 5128 was identified as a high priority removal in the watershed as it is undersized and does not pass all life stages of fish. This work element will return fish passage to 1.0 mile of stream by removing the existing culvert that is a spring Chinook and steelhead migration barrier. The culvert is located in Sec. 33, T36N, R6E.Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Snake River Fall ESU (Threatened), Steelhead (O. mykiss) - Snake River DPS (Threatened)Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Snake River Spring/Summer (not listed), Cutthroat Trout, Westslope (O. c. lewisi), Lamprey, Pacific (Entosphenus tridentata), Trout, Rainbow (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
     F184Install Fish Passage StructureRemove Musselshell CulvertA BPA funded culvert inventory and assessment was completed by the NPT for the entire Lolo Creek watershed in 2004. The Musselshell Creek culvert was identified as a high priority removal in the watershed as it is undersized and does not pass all life stages of fish. This work element will return fish passage to 4.0 miles of stream by removing the existing culvert that is a spring Chinook and steelhead migration barrier. The culvert is located in Sec. 33, T36N, R6E.Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Snake River Fall ESU (Threatened), Steelhead (O. mykiss) - Snake River DPS (Threatened)Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Snake River Spring/Summer (not listed), Cutthroat Trout, Westslope (O. c. lewisi), Lamprey, Pacific (Entosphenus tridentata), Trout, Rainbow (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
