A | 12993 | 165 | Produce Environmental Compliance Documentation | Provide NEPA Information to BPA | All environmental compliance, including NEPA, ESA consultation, and cultural clearance were completed in 2003 and 2004 for five culverts (Corral, Camp, Hepner, Merton, and Black George Creeks). Permits are obtained by the Nez Perce National Forest (NPNF) the year the construction is completed.
| $958 | 1.20% | 03/01/2005 | 02/28/2006 |
B | 12994 | 119 | Manage and Administer Projects | Management, Coordination and Communication | Project management includes coordinating project activities, attending meetings, seeking additional funding, preparing statements of work, managing budgets, and completing reports.
Additional Notes: Communications will include e-mail, telephone, compressed video conferences, and face-to-face meetings. | $4,125 | 5.15% | 03/01/2005 | 02/28/2006 |
C | 12995 | 118 | Coordination | Prepare Partnering Agreements with the Nez Perce National Forest | The Nez Perce Tribe and the NPNF have been partners in watershed restoration since 1996, which includes sharing funds and resources to complete projects. Each year, projects specifics are spelled out in an agreement signed by both parties. | $1,895 | 2.37% | 03/01/2005 | 03/31/2005 |
D | 12996 | 174 | Produce Plan | Identify Culvert Restoration Projects | An effort to inventory every culvert within the Mill Creek drainage was completed in 2002. This data was entered into a database, and will now be prioritized for future culvert replacement projects.
Additional Notes: Work with Nez Perce National Forest to prioritize culverts for replacement. | $2,235 | 2.79% | 03/01/2005 | 05/15/2005 |
E | 12997 | 175 | Produce Design | Approve final design and cost estimate for culverts | Designs for culvert replacement are a cooperative effort between the NPT and the NPNF. The Forest Service generally takes the lead, and the Nez Perce Tribe reviews and approves all designs before being solicited for bids on construction projects.
Additional Notes: Culvert replacements installed to correct fish barriers are designed for stream simulation and sized for active channel, design size is checked with the capacity required for the 100-year flood, and the larger size becomes the final design criteria. Successful stream simulation culverts pass all aquatic species including all life stages of fish.
Camp Creek is a tributary to Mill Creek. A plan of work and cost-share will be detailed in the agreement for implementation.
Hepner and Merton Creeks are tributaries to Mill Creek. Designs will be completed during this contract cycle, and implementation will follow in the next two years.
| $8,683 | 10.84% | 03/01/2005 | 02/28/2006 |
F | 12998 | 184 | Install Fish Passage Structure | Replace Camp Creek Culvert. | Camp Creek was easily identified as a high priority for replacement as it was undersized and did not pass all life stages of fish.
Additional Notes: This work element will return fish passage to 3 miles of stream by removing and replacing existing culvert that is a juvenile spring Chinook and steelhead migration barrier. The culvert is located at T2N/R3E/Sec.13. The NPNF will offer and manage contract installations. Funding will come from NPT through BPA, the Idaho PCSRF, and the NPNF. | $30,683 | 38.31% | 03/01/2005 | 09/30/2006 |
G | 12999 | 18 | Maintain Terrestrial Structure | EXPIRED: EXPIRED: Maintain Fence | Five miles of fence were constructed between the years of 2000 & 2001 to protect critical meadow habitat. Fence consists of post and rail and post and four-strand barbed wire.
Additional Notes: The fence maintenance and construction crew is used by the entire watershed division. This project will be completed between the start and end date, but the exact timing is dependent on other projects within the division. | $0 | 0.00% | 03/01/2005 | 12/30/2005 |
H | 13000 | 47 | Plant Vegetation | Plant riparian vegetation | The meadow habitat in upper Mill Creek has lost over 90% of its riparian vegetation since 1930. It is virtually devoid of riparian vegetation, so this project will re-vegetate the riparian zone. | $3,805 | 4.75% | 03/30/2005 | 02/28/2006 |
I | 13001 | 157 | Collect/Generate/Validate Field and Lab Data | Collect data on culverts installed in 2004 and 2005 | A monitoring protocol for culvert replacements will track the status of habitat within and around the culvert and the stream channels reaction to the newly installed culvert. | $3,852 | 4.81% | 07/01/2005 | 09/30/2006 |
J | 13002 | 157 | Collect/Generate/Validate Field and Lab Data | Stream Habitat Data Collection | Stream habitat and temperature data will be collected within Mill Creek, and this data will be summarized into a monitoring report, showing trends of conditions as a result of watershed restoration activities.
Additional Notes: Data is needed to monitor and evaluate biological, chemical and physical habitat parameters that affect salmonid production in the Mill Creek watershed. Information will be collected on macro-invertebrates, flow, temperature, sediment composition, and habitat parameters to include channel morphology, valley width index, Wolman Pebble counts, cobble embeddedness, large woody debris, bank stability, and riparian condition and density.
The monitoring will occur between the start and end dates above, but the exact timing for the locations will be determined and adjusted during field season.
| $1,985 | 2.48% | 03/01/2005 | 09/30/2006 |
K | 13003 | 162 | Analyze/Interpret Data | Mill Creek Data Analysis | Stream habitat and temperature data has been collected within Mill Creek, and this data will be summarized into a monitoring report, showing trends of conditions as a result of watershed restoration activities. | $4,862 | 6.07% | 03/01/2005 | 06/01/2006 |
L | 13004 | 141 | Produce Other Reports | Quarterly Reports or Pisces formatted data in "stoplight" format | Quarterly reports will track project work element completion.
Additional Notes: Dates are based on fiscal year not contract year. Write quarterly reports summarizing each quarter's activities including 1) data generated by the project, 2) work required to collect data, and 3) problems, issues, concerns, and successes. Identify how the activities are contributing to the completion of the overall project objectives OR use "stop sign" system in Pisces to identify whether each work element is on time. | $7,374 | 9.21% | 04/01/2005 | 01/15/2006 |
M | 13005 | 132 | Produce Progress (Annual) Report | Annual Report | Annual reports summarize yearly activities.
Additional Notes: Annual Report describes all pertinent yearly activities, successes, problems, and opportunities encountered to include photos as needed. Summarize data generated by the project, as well as discussions with StreamNet; identify appropriate data format(s) (or linkages), timing of data sharing, and describe any work needed to provide data in these formats. | $3,956 | 4.94% | 03/01/2005 | 02/28/2006 |
N | 12992 | 185 | Produce CBFish Status Report | Quarterly status reports | 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. Additionally, when indicating a deliverable milestone as COMPLETE, the contractor shall provide metrics and the final location (latitude and longitude) prior to submitting the report to the BPA COTR. | $5,683 | 7.10% | 10/01/2005 | 02/28/2007 |
