29. Increase Aquatic and/or Floodplain Complexity	Active	This work element is intended for the placement of natural materials in the water or on the floodplain to create habitat features or improve channel morphology. Actions include placement of large woody debris (LWD), constructed riffle features, boulder placements, and beaver dam analogs (BDAs). It also includes placing gravel to improve complexity by creating pools or fish spawning habitat. Complexity structures are typically used in stream reaches with limited natural tendencies to foster development of, or ability to maintain, natural habitat features. For example, structures are often placed to improve habitat variability for fish in otherwise uniform flow conditions. These actions can have the objectives of creating and/or maintaining scour pools, influencing channel sinuosity and hydraulic complexity, recruiting and retaining wood and gravel, sorting of gravels, and supporting hydrologic connectivity with the floodplain. Design review should be at 80% completion before contracting to help assure implementation and expenditure of contracted funds. When this WE is used, the contract must also include 175. Produce Design . If structures are being added to resolve a fish passage barrier, use 184. Install Fish Passage Structure . If maintaining an existing structure, use 186. Operate and Maintain Habitat/Passage/Structure . If work involves only plantings, use 47. Plant Vegetation . If other methods are used to control erosion in the riparian and upland zones, use 55. Erosion and Sedimentation Control . This work element should not be used for bank stabilization unless it is part of a larger habitat or complexity action.	2005		16	This metric only applies to work in riparian areas.

30. Realign, Connect, and/or Create Channel	Active	This work element is intended for adding sinuosity, meanders, side channels, and/or off-channel habitats (e.g., sloughs or oxbows). Actions include reconnection of historical channels, excavation of new channels, or actions that significantly alter channel planform, profile, and cross-section. Channel modifications should create diverse habitats (pools, riffles, glides and runs) while retaining characteristic features and forms over time. These actions should increase stream channel and/or side channel length and acreage. This WE may be the main emphasis of an aquatic habitat restoration project, or part of a larger habitat project. Design review should be at 80% completion before contracting to help assure implementation and expenditure of contracted funds. When this WE is used, the contract must also include 175. Produce Design . If work is solely to add structures/features within the existing channel, then use 29. Increase Aquatic and/or Floodplain Complexity . If structures are being added to resolve a fish passage barrier, use 184. Install Fish Passage Structure . If work is to create, restore, or enhance wetland function then use 181. Create, Restore, and/or Enhance Wetland	2005		16	This metric only applies to work in riparian areas. Must be entered in decimal degrees.

40. Install Fence	Active	Work to install various types of fence and/or gates for habitat improvement. If applicable, include cattle guards or water gaps for livestock as part of the deliverable. For riparian fencing, BPA recommends project sponsors include 50+ foot riparian buffers, or wider, based on the stream type, site specific dynamics, and current research. This work is not generally intended to be used for upland fencing for pasture rotation purposes. Upland fencing for fish will be considered on a case by case basis. Upland fencing is authorized for parcels managed for wildlife if this is part of a management plan to exclude livestock. 40. Install Fence should not be used for non-habitat purposes such as securing equipment or property; instead, use a milestone under the work element for which the property or equipment is used. 40. Install Fence should not be used for protection of new plantings; instead, use a milestone under 47. Plant Vegetation or 198. Maintain Vegetation. If work is to repair a fence or exclusion device, use 186. Operate and Maintain Habitat/Passage/Structure . If a lease or other land use agreement of greater than 15 years is completed as part of the fence installation, you must also use 92. Lease Land in addition to 40. Install Fence (i.e., if you have an agreement for less than 15 years, only use 40. Install Fence). For a renewal of a lease or land use agreement that extends the period of protection, you must use 92. Lease Land instead of 40. Install Fence.	2005		16	This metric only applies to work in riparian areas. Must be entered in decimal degrees.
