K | 239538 | 171 | Build, Modify, and/or Refurbish Artificial Production Facility | Overhead Cover (Marion Drain): Replace failing overhead screening with structural roof to protect and maintain circular rearing tanks | Background: Three large circular tanks were purchased and installed at Marion Drain in the FY19 contract period, to replace the ten small aging and leaking fiberglass tanks (previously relocated to the facility and used for rearing), that were failed or failing and long-past their expected useful life. The existing overhead protection for the new fish-rearing tanks, originally planned and installed as an interim and impermanent component of the facility infrastructure (i.e., low-capital cost), is equally degraded and inadequate, missing or incomplete in many areas, and long-ago began to fail and compromise efficient, protected and secure facility operations, and robust, effective fish culture practices. The currently ineffective overhead shading and protection, to be consistent with production goals and rearing protocols, should be replaced as a necessary and planned major maintenance requirement.
Current (FY22): Construction of a structural overhead cover should have already commenced in the prior contract period (FY21): installed above the circular tanks at Marion Drain to replace the inadequate, and now failing, partial shading cover and protection netting currently in-place.
[COTR]: Maintenance actions are a permanent feature but an interim measure, a necessary upgrade to impermanent or temporary facility features that are failing, and not a premature investment that may be stranded in a future build-out of facilities. The previously installed tanks - easily adapted for water reuse, and a constructed overhead roof - for shading and predation deterrence, are expected to be incorporated as permanent features of future hatchery design and operation, if the Marion Drain Hatchery is updated in the post 2022-2025 period.
Note: Facility investment and production planning is expected to continue within ongoing discussions between BPA and the YN in the outyears (6-8 years). | $60,000 | 3.04% | 07/01/2022 | 06/01/2023 |

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. | $1,200 | 0.06% | 10/01/2022 | 10/31/2023 |
M | 239540 | 132 | Produce Progress (Annual) Report | [Deliverable due next period]: Progress Report (2-year): 2022 and 2023 (01/01/2022 - 12/31/2023) | Note: Annual progress reporting for the implementation period of the current contract (FY22), will occur in the subsequent contract term (FY23).
The YN Contract Manager and BPA COTR have agreed to continue a two-year reporting period cycle that began during the 2014 contract term, as an adjustment to efficiently align report requirements with the calendar year. A 2-year report that encompasses: (a) the one-year of reporting for this contract FY(22); and (b) the following one-year report period (2023), will be due as a deliverable before the end of the next contract period (Jun 30, 2024).
Contractor is current with reporting requirements (there is no report overdue as a deliverable); this adjustment in reporting periods is more efficient, serves BPA's implementation management purposes by reducing redundancy in reporting O&M activities that are recurring; better accommodates contract actions that occur toward the end of the implementation period; and encourages report preparation during the winter months, outside of the summer-fall work period. | $300 | 0.02% | 07/01/2022 | 09/30/2022 |
N | 239541 | 61 | Maintain Artificial Production Facility/Infrastructure | Repair and ground prep Marion Drain Circulars | Address the circular repair and prep grounds for re-setting repaired circulars, caused by BAC 2 failure at Marion Drain Hatchery.
The following are examples of work to be performed, however they are not limited to:
1) Disassembly of failed 30’ circular and removal of all three 30’ circulars.
2) Recondition circular sub-grade, including bringing in sand needed to fix washed out areas of concern.
