| C | 83019 | 160 | Create/Manage/Maintain Database | Develop pilot enterprise-level data management system | Due to the large-scale data collection effort undertaken by ISEMP, and the project's goal of data analysis and interpretation, the project must develop its own approach to data management that takes into explicit account the versioning of protocols, the spatial/temporal representativeness of the data elements, the data flow from generators to managers, and ultimately, the output of data to data analysts. As such, the project will develop novel tools for the management and communication of monitoring data, monitoring data collection protocols and monitoring data flow. In addition, these tools will be implemented on a sub-basin scale and offered to the co-manager community to facilitate all of the above objectives. (SDM). This WE specifically involves the following actions: maintain, enhance and document Status and Trend Effectiveness Monitoring (STEM) database; maintain, enhance and document STEM data query and delivery website. | $151,826 | 34.60% | 07/01/2011 | 06/30/2012 |
| D | 83020 | 156 | Develop RM&E Methods and Designs | PIT tag antenna design and installation | The ISEMP project proposes to use PIT tags implanted in juvenile and adult spring/summer Chinook salmon and steelhead, in conjunction with extended length PIT tag arrays to estimate juvenile and adult movement patterns, survival, and abundance via mark-recapture. The extended length PIT tag arrays consist of two sets of antennas, separated by a distance of approximately 5 m that span the entire width of the stream. As PIT tagged juveniles or adults pass the arrays the PIT tags are triggered to report an individual specific tag code. Due to the upstream and downstream antennas, the resulting information can be used to determine the direction of fish movement and the efficiency of the array. Arrays will be deployed at the mouth of the major tributaries and in the mainstem Bridge Ck, SF John Day, Wenatchee, Entiat, SF Salmon and Lemhi Rivers. Juveniles will be collected and tagged throughout the summer in multiple tributaries.
The activities in this WE will be to upgrade PIT tag antennas at 2 locations in the Salmon River basin -- Big Ck (MFSR) and Valley Ck (USR) from current experimental designs to an ISEMP standard NOAA pipe antenna style currently deployed throughout the Wenatchee, Entiat and John Day River basins. The upgrade includes replacing antennas with standard antenna design, replacing data logging and remote communications hardware to standardize across ISEMP, replacing power source hardware to ensure power source is adequate to operate sites during extended periods where on-site work is not possible. This WE also seeks to develop and deploy standard Operations and Maintenance process and infrastructure for data QA/QC, downloading, remote site maintenance and operations monitoring at the upgraded sites as well as at the balance of ISEMP PIT tag antenna locations through out the Columbia River basin. As a result, data flow, integrity and quality control will be stabilized such that all ISEMP PIT tag antenna locations will have known data integrity with remote logging and error reporting capability.
This WE is integrated with, but does not duplicate and work specified by, contract 50585 WE AJ & AM (Quantitative Consultants Inc) and contract 48304 WE D-G (Biomark). | $133,950 | 30.52% | 07/01/2011 | 06/30/2012 |
| E | 83021 | 162 | Analyze/Interpret Data | ISEMP data analysis coordination | Assist data and GIS analysts in interpretation and statistical analysis of data. NOAA technical staff with specific GIS, Data Management and Statistical expertise will collaborate to develop novel data analysis products resulting from ISEMP data collection to date.
As designed, ISEMP data collection in the Wenatchee, Entiat, John Day and Salmon River basins represents a novel opportunity for the rigorous evaluation of salmonid habitat and population data to address resource management questions. Several key analyses are now possible, due to the ISEMP data set generated to date, and the recent advances in multivariate and spatial statistics. | $56,189 | 12.80% | 07/01/2011 | 06/30/2012 |
| F | 83018 | 162 | Analyze/Interpret Data | Develop models of learning and information flow | Population scale fish and habitat status and trends monitoring and watershed scale effectiveness monitoring and restoration action implementation are key objectives of the co-manager community in the Columbia River basin. Currently these activities are undertaken on an agency by agency or watershed by watershed basis without any real infrastructure for learning and information flow to be established between units. ISEMP is working to standardize methods and approaches for this work, and even within a watershed considerable learning and information flow is required in order to successfully transfer project tools to the local community. Potential barriers to this information transfer exist in that ways of doing monitoring and restoration work have been to a large extent engrained by practitioners as a culture. Therefore, strong social barriers exist for scientific or technical information to be incorporated and long-standing methods altered. The goal of this Work Element is to develop an understanding of the social framework in which ISEMP work exists, the framework of the co-manager community with which we collaborate, and the framework of the broader community that may not be directly involved, but which may be interested in adopting project output. The objective of this WE is to learn how to make information transfer more efficient and effective from the research and development component of RME to the applied, practitioner community. | $46,164 | 10.52% | 07/01/2011 | 06/30/2012 |

| H | 88151 | 132 | Produce Progress (Annual) Report | Support development of CHaMP Annual Synthesis Report | Description: The CHaMP Project lead will work with collaborators to produce a logistics/lessons learned annual synthesis report for the CHaMP 2011 field season. This “lessons learned” annual report will be used to inform full implementation in 2012, including any adjustments that may be appropriate on the design or scope of the project.
The CHaMP Annual Synthesis report will:
a) provide regular synthesis and reporting of habitat status results
b) compare these results to available fish status and trend information
c) inform adaptive management improvements for CHaMP, including comparison with other similar efforts such as PIBO and Washington State monitoring protocols with the goal of achieving use of fewer key parameters, greater efficiencies and lower costs.
e) be written to inform agency and tribal decision-makers and specifically address key management questions. | $4,974 | 1.13% | 09/01/2011 | 01/31/2012 |
