Background:
The Integrated Status and Effectiveness Monitoring Program (ISEMP, 2003-017-00) is an ongoing collaborative effort to design, test, implement and evaluate Status and Trends Monitoring for salmon and steelhead populations and their habitat, and watershed-scale Effectiveness Monitoring for management actions impacting salmon and steelhead populations and habitat in the Interior Columbia River Basin.
ISEMP explicitly addresses work requirements of many 2008 FCRPS Biological Opinion RPAs (56.1, 56.2, 56.3, 57.1, 57.2, 57.3, 57.4, 57.5) and is directly related to additional 2008 FCRPS Biological Opinion implementation strategy requirements and recommendations. ISEMP takes a pilot-project approach to the research and development of monitoring by implementing experimental programs in several major subbasins of the Interior Columbia: the Wenatchee, Entiat, Methow, John Day, South Fork Salmon and Lemhi River basins. The overall goal of the project is to provide regional salmon management agencies with the data, information and tools necessary to design efficient and effective monitoring programs.
Specifically, ISEMP generates quantitative guidance on and examples of: the robustness and limitations of population and habitat monitoring protocols, indicators and metrics; sampling design approaches for the distribution of monitoring effort in time and space; analytical approaches to the evaluation of monitoring data, information and programs; effective data management and communication designs that support the use, standardization and compilation of implementation, compliance, status, trends and effectiveness monitoring data by regional data generators and decision makers; and finally the design and implementation of watershed-scale restoration actions to maximize both the biological impact and associated learning opportunities resulting from the design and implementation strategy.
Through its work to date, ISEMP has developed expertise in the coordination and implementation of large-scale monitoring data collection programs. Applying this experience, ISEMP coordinates the installation, maintenance and calibration of in-stream PIT tag arrays across the Snake River basin and is designing and coordinating the implementation of a Columbia River basin-wide stream habitat status and trends monitoring. These programmatic implementation facets of ISEMP leverage previous experience with logistics and social factors to effectively implement comprehensive, standardized monitoring research and development at an unprecedented scale.

Developing restoration scenario estimated impacts on fish populations
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. As an outcome of this work element, the annual analysis workplan for ISEMP and CHaMP is updated and integrated with regional analysis product needs.
This work element involves data analysis to estimate changes in stream habitat quality and quantity based on spatially explicit habitat rehabilitation scenarios and the resultant changes in fish population processes such as capacity and survival. Specifically, this work element will generate estimates of expected “fish benefit” in terms of change in summer and winter rearing capacity, spawning capacity, summer and winter juvenile survival, and adult and juvenile tributary movement patterns. The final work product will be quantitative relationships that can be applied at the scale of stream reaches (e.g., 1:100k hydrography confluence to confluence reaches) to estimate the change in fish population processes as a function of stream rehabilitation actions. The types of habitat quality changes to be evaluated include – in-channel longitudinal complexity, planform stream complexity, riparian vegetation extent, and stream temperature. These habitat quality improvements are generally accomplished with boulder and wood placement, main and side channel construction, riparian planting and protection.
ISEMP - Population Life Cycle Model for Chinook in the Wenatchee River basin
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.

Several key analyses are now possible, due to the ISEMP data set generated to date, and the recent advances in multivariate and spatial statistics. As an outcome of this work element, the annual analysis workplan for ISEMP and CHaMP is updated and integrated with regional analysis product needs.
This work element involves data analysis done to build and parameterize life cycle models in the Wenatchee River basin that integrate tributary habitat quality and quantity data into fish population process metrics such as capacity, survival and movement.
Coordinate ISEMP and CHaMP into regional RME processes
This work element involves participating in regional RME planning processes to integrate ISEMP/CHaMP data, lessons learned, and analyses into ongoing or emerging RME or tributary habitat management decision making processes.
These regional processes are of three basic types:
1. Planning / prioritization meetings with FCRPS BO coordination entities. These discussion will generally involve staff from BPA, NPCC and NOAA.
2. Regional technical coordination. These discussion are based on outreach, local / regional vetting and feedback, as well as technical collaboration. These discussions are organized by AMIP, ISAB/ISRP, UC and LS RTT, Lower Snake Comp Chinook, LGD coordination committee, PNAMP.
3. National science meeting. These discussion are based on outreach, professional feedback and vetting with the regional to national science and technical community. These discussions are based around presentations or working meetings in conjunctions with professional meetings such as the American Fisheries Society or the American Geophysical Union, or River Restoration Northwest.
Through regular meetings, weekly coordination calls, and analysis workshops, develop an annual analysis workplan for ISEMP/CHaMP analysis team based on progress to date on current analysis tasks, input from BPA, NPCC and NOAA staff regarding FWP and FCRPS BA and BO needs.
Work under this task will involve travel to meet with comanagers and policy oversight groups to understand regional and programmatic needs for data analysis and product development. Travel will consist of up to 4 trips to locations such as SEA, PDX or BOI.
Ensure necessary documents are provided to BPA's Environmental Compliance group in sufficient time to allow for a compliance letter to be written prior to any ground-disturbing work. Coordinate with appropriate agencies regarding any permits that may be required.
EC documentation to be provided under this work element is as follows:
ESA sampling permit from NOAA for all ISEMP remote site juvenile PIT tagging.
ESA sampling permit from NOAA for operation of adult steelhead trap (weir) in Bridge Creek
ESA sampling permit from NOAA for adult chinook, steelhead and sockeye handling and tagging at Lower Granite Dam Adult Fish Facility
ESA sampling permit from USFWS for incidental encounter of Bull Trout while sampling for ESA listed anadromous salmonids
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.
Projects that have claimed that they support one or more RM&E RPAs (i.e., RPAs 50-73) under the FCRPS BiOp are required to report their results. To facilitate the summary of these results across the entire Columbia River Basin, and to provide more clarity as to the format required under the BiOp, these reports are required to be completed online. If desired, the required information can be prepared in MS Word, and pasted into Taurus. For more guidance see https://www.cbfish.org/Content/tutorials/Reporting_Guidance_BiOp_2013.pdf.
Produce CY2017 Integrated RME Technical Report for ISEMP/CHaMP
ISEMP will update the lessons learned synthesis report for FY17 by compiling the work of all ISEMP contractors (from each of the three pilot subbasins and the umbrella group), describing ISEMP's progress in FY17 in relation to its proposed goals and objectives, and document changes in protocols/indicators being monitored that have resulted from data collected over the course of the program. This work will be coordinated by Terraqua Inc., and depends on the collaboration and input of all ISEMP contractors.
The 2017 ISEMP Lessons Learned report will consist only of an update to progress and lessons learned that occurred between reporting points (e.g., since last released project-level report). Descriptions of progress and lessons learned will only be included in the ISEMP Lessons Learned Report if not included in the RM&E and RPA reporting.
Background:
Since its inception in 2003, reporting for Project #2003-017 has been accomplished through reports prepared by individual contractors, an annual program-wide (project-wide) capstone report that collates the reports from each ISEMP pilot subbasin and the data management team, or through BiOp reporting. Also, in 2006 ISEMP produced the first Three-Year Review document, which provided a retrospective of the work that had occurred over the three years since ISEMP's inception through 2006. (http://www.nwfsc.noaa.gov/research/divisions/cbd/mathbio/isemp/documents.cfm). In 2011 BPA managers (and other entities) expressed the need to have a lessons learned synthesis report covering the entire period of the program. This synthesis report reviewed the relevant F&W Program management questions and RPAs that ISEMP was initiated to help answer.
