     D132Produce Progress (Annual) ReportSubmit Progress Report for the period (May 2017) to (Apr 2018)The progress report summarizes the project goal, objectives, hypotheses (for research), completed and uncompleted deliverables, problems encountered, lessons learned, and long-term planning. Examples of long-term planning include future improvements, new directions, or any ramping up or ramping down of contract components or of the project as a whole. Non-technical Progress Reports must conform to BPA guidelines. See the "Non-technical Progress Report" link at: http://www.cbfish.org/Help.mvc/GuidanceDocuments.

     F199Remove VegetationApply herbicide(s) and mow to re-establish planting rows on 215 acresRows that vary from 3 - 4 feet in width shall be established using herbicides over approximately 215 acres. Total acreage of treated ground will be approximately 43 acres.Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Upper Willamette River ESU (Threatened)
     G47Plant VegetationPlant (and inter-plant) approximately 215 acres of native vegetationProposed project: - We will plant understory vegetation across approximately 215 acres of former non-native rye-grass fields. These areas were previously planted with native overstory trees between 2006 and 2010. Some of the swales adjacent to these fields will be planted in a separate project beginning fall 2016 (BPA Contract #72821). - This project will add understory complexity to the forest, consistent with the goals of the Green Island Management Plan, page 59. The project will contribute to the goal of “Floodplain forest expansion, restoration and/or enhancement” through the following activities, identified in the Green Island management plan: - Re-establish a diversity of native vegetation communities on agricultural lands and other disturbed areas. Riparian forest, which mimics the historic condition, will be the primary target habitat. - Plant a diversity of native riparian tree species, introduce a variety of native riparian understory species to the riparian forest. Riparian understory planting will be done in clusters to allow for easy irrigation and follow-up maintenance and monitoring.Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Upper Willamette River ESU (Threatened)
     H198Maintain VegetationMaintain 215 acres of planted rowsPlanted native shrubs shall be maintained in the following ways: 1. Herbicide(s) shall be used to maintain a bare-ground or similar condition within the planted rows, which vary in width, but are between 3 - 4 feet in width. 2. Mowing will occur at least twice throughout the growing season to reduce cover for voles and increase overall available water resources for planted materials. 3. Irrigation will be utilized as needed, but will definitely be used during the first growing season at least twice. 4. Tree protection tubes will be maintained as needed. Specific vulnerable species will be targeted to receive tubing, as resources and budget allows. (Currently, the budget calls for 20,000 tubes).Chinook (O. tshawytscha) - Upper Willamette River ESU (Threatened)
