| 52. Remove Mine Tailings |
Active |
Work to remove or re-contour remnant landscape effects from old mining operations. Could be terrestrial or aquatic in nature.
If work also creates wetland or modifies channel use 181. Create, Restore, and/or Enhance Wetland and 30. Realign, Connect, and/or Create Channel. |

The length of stream made accessible to the next upstream barrier to fish passage in miles. To calculate miles, divide the total length of feet by 5,280 ft/per mile. Note: If this metric is captured for this barrier under another work element, put "0" here. |

| 84. Remove/Install Diversion |
Active |
Work that removes, replaces, or avoids creating a fish passage barrier associated with a stream diversion, including push-up dams. May be part of a diversion consolidation effort that reduces the number of diversion sites. Includes installation of alternative ways to divert stream flow without creating passage barriers caused by traditional diversion structures. Examples include, but are not limited to, infiltration galleries, instream diversion pumps, and lay-flat stanchions. |

| 85. Remove/Breach Fish Passage Barrier |
Active |
Work that facilitates fish passage over a human-made barrier by breaching or removal without replacement. This includes dams, weirs, fish ladders, tidegates, culverts, bridges, and road crossings. If the dam is part of a diversion, use 208. Irrigation Infrastructure Construction or Replacement. If installing a fish passage structure at the same location, use 184. Install Fish Passage Structure, and have removal of the passage barrier as a milestone under that work element. |

| 180. Enhance Floodplain/Remove, Modify, Breach Dike |
Active |
This work element is intended for the full or partial removal, breaching, lowering, and/or relocation/set-back of artificial levees or dikes adjacent to streams and estuaries for the purpose of floodplain, riparian habitat improvements. This WE may be the main emphasis of a stream habitat restoration project, or it may be a component of a broader set of techniques implemented in concert which collectively define a project.
When this WE is used, the contract must also include 175. Produce Design . If the work includes improvement of fish passage into upstream reaches of the existing channel, then use 84. Remove/Install Diversion (Expired) , 85. Remove/Breach Fish Passage Barrier , or 184. Install Fish Passage Structure . If work is to create, restore, or enhance wetland function then use 181. Create, Restore, and/or Enhance Wetland . |

| 184. Install Fish Passage Structure |
Active |
Install, replace, or modify structures when the intent is to improve fish passage and/or flow, typically by removing or modifying a full or partial instream barrier. "Structures" include fish ladders, bridges, culverts, jump pools, roughened channels, and weirs. "Barriers" include such obstacles to fish passage as tidegates, weirs, culverts, rock fords, road crossings, and manmade dams. Structures also include natural barriers such as logjams and natural streambeds.
This work element excludes diversion dams. Use 208. Irrigation Infrastructure Construction or Replacement for diversion dam removal, and include this work as a milestone under this WE.
Where anadromous fish are present, structures installed must meet current NOAA specifications and USFWS specifications for lamprey and bull trout respectively. Use 180. Enhance Floodplain/Remove, Modify, Breach Dike if the installation of a passage structure is associated with a dike removal, breaching, and modification, and may create additional acres of habitat as well as providing access to instream habitat. Use 70. Install Fish Monitoring Equipment, for weirs installed primarily to restrict fish passage for the purpose of monitoring or collecting fish (e.g., picket weirs). Design of complex or large-scale fish passage structures is often a separate work element (see 175. Produce Design).
In known or potential lamprey habitat use guidance from these documents:

Pacific Lamprey Habitat Restoration Guide https://www.fws.gov/pacificlamprey/BPALampreyGuidanceDocuments.cfm.
Lamprey presence can be determined from Data Basin map https://www.fws.gov/pacificlamprey/BPALampreyGuidanceDocuments.cfm. This map does not show all distribution due to limited data. Pre-project lamprey surveys should be done (see USFWS lamprey Guidelines document) if the map does not show presence. |

| 208. Irrigation Infrastructure Construction or Replacement |
Active |
All actions related to the construction and installation of irrigation infrastructure for the purpose of fish and wildlife conservation. Includes fish screens (and related infrastructure such as concrete, gantries, solar panels, bypass pipe, etc.), headgates, flow measuring devices, irrigation diversions, siphons, wells, piping, pumps, and fish passage structures associated with irrigation diversions. The design of complex or large-scale screens is typically a separate work element. See 175. Produce Design.
