A | 192909 | 185 | Produce CBFish Status Report | Periodic Status Reports for BPA | 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. | $1,025 | 0.02% | 10/01/2017 | 06/30/2019 |
B | 192910 | 165 | Produce Environmental Compliance Documentation | Produce EC for projects | CREST completes all environmental compliance and permitting at the local, state, and federal levels. CREST has a history of completing all environmental compliance for its restoration projects. CREST has worked closely with BPA through other direct contracts and has a track record of successful design, permitting, and implementation of restoration projects. CREST has completed cultural resources assessments, programmatic endangered species act compliance, and NEPA documentation in support of past contracts and we will continue to due so for projects during this contract period.
Since CREST is in design and construction on multiple restoration projects each year environmental compliance work occurs throughout the contract period. | $500,000 | 7.81% | 07/01/2017 | 06/30/2019 |
C | 192911 | 119 | Manage and Administer Projects | Manage and Administer Projects | CREST will manage and administer the contract in compliance with Bonneville Power Administration policies and procedures. | $488,000 | 7.63% | 07/01/2017 | 06/30/2019 |
D | 192912 | 99 | Outreach and Education | Meetings, Newsletters, and Education | Outreach and education actions follow a specific strategy targeting key watersheds/communities and supporting project goals. Targeted outreach not related to projects focuses on increasing relationships within communities which strengthen and improve relationships between CREST, landowners, and community groups. These relationships are important to develop and maintain for long term project success. Targeted outreach related to projects provides communities, landowners, and interested parties with information specifically related to the project and how it relates to that community, ecosystem, and other resources in the community.
Specifically, CREST project managers Tom Josephson, Jason Smith, and Madeline Ishikawa will conduct community outreach and education related to projects. Actions include Technical Advisory Committee development, coordination, and oversight, community scoping meetings, community information meetings, permit and design meetings, and printed material development to name some specific actions. Activities account for approximately 20% of staff hours in this contract proposal. | $5,000 | 0.08% | 07/01/2017 | 06/30/2019 |
E | 192913 | 114 | Identify and Select Projects | Systematically Identify, Prioritize, and Select Projects | CREST employs multiple methods for identification of projects.
Opportunistic projects are developed when CREST is approached by a landowner with a specific project concept. CREST investigates and determines if it is feasible based on known biological objectives.
Targeted projects are developed by CREST utilizing reach or watershed mapping, on-the-ground investigation, meeting with landowners, agencies, and partners to identify specific project opportunities. As part of this second process, CREST uses metrics based on limiting factors to determine site priorities, developing a project list and focusing on top priority projects first.
Approximately 20% of Project Managers and CREST Director time is devoted to project development activities under this work element. It is critical that CREST continue to develop projects and work through the Action Agencies' Expert Regional Technical Group (ERTG) and project selection process as well as design and implement within a give contract period. Therefore, significant effort is devoted to identifying, prioritizing, and selecting projects.
Top-priority projects are peripheral, shallow-water refugia or rearing habitats favored by out-of-basin ocean-type juvenile salmonids. CREST develops ERTG templates describing the project site and including project alternatives for top-priority projects. The template forms the basis for developing funding and review documents for BPA and the other AAs. CREST then completes letters of permission/agreement with individual landowners, finalizes ERTG templates, and begins developing design documents.
CREST will continue to participate in regional coordination meetings with the Estuary Partnership, Columbia Land Trust, PC Trask, UW, etc., related to the development of new project prioritization tools. CREST will utilize these planning framework and prioritization tools as they come on line and available to practitioners and managers. | $500,000 | 7.81% | 07/01/2017 | 06/30/2019 |
F | 192914 | 100 | Construction Management | CREST oversight of purchasing, contracting, permit compliance of active projects | Construction management activities include purchasing construction materials, arranging transport to the site, contract development and oversight, coordinating meetings between contractors and engineers, coordinating construction schedules, overseeing permit compliance, conducting construction site visits, reviewing construction budgets, releasing funds for contractor payment, and overseeing whatever elements of construction were not specifically contracted out, which may include fish rescue, temporary erosion and sediment control actions, monitoring, etc.
During the contract period CREST will provide construction management activities for the following restoration projects: Flights End, Enyarts/ McCarthy Creek, Bear and Mary's Creek, Ferris Creek, West Sand Island, and John Day #11. | $420,000 | 6.56% | 07/01/2017 | 06/30/2019 |
G | 192915 | 175 | Produce Design | PROJECT DEVELOPMENT-- Surveys and Early Project Development | Survey, design, and preliminary engineering is necessary for project sites that CREST is investigating. These projects will be coordinated closely with BPA for evaluation of cost/SBU and potential for implementation.
These projects are proposed for implementation in 2019-20 as approved by BPA. Design will focus on alternatives development, habitat objectives, and preliminary engineering design. | $19,942 | 0.31% | 07/01/2017 | 06/30/2019 |
H | 192916 | 159 | Transfer/Consolidate Regionally Standardized Data | Participate in Regional Data Rollup Projects | Pre and Post Project Monitoring data will be available as a source document for other researchers as well as a stand-alone evaluation of project outcomes.
