Deliverable Status:
Required
Default Deliverable Desc:
Alternative Water Source
Potential Deliverables:
  • Alternative water source facilities

  • Rule 1 (Environmental Compliance): Any associated ESA, cultural resources, NEPA, or other environmental compliance work should be split out under 165. Produce Environmental Compliance Documentation.

    Example:

    WE: 34. Develop Alternative Water Source
    WE Title: Develop alternative water source facilities at Johnson site

    WE: 165. Produce Environmental Compliance Documentation
    WE Title: Provide documentation to BPA for alternative water source facilities at Johnson site

  • Rule 2 (Location of Work): If you are constructing alternative water source facilities at more than one location, you may lump multiple locations in a single subbasin under a single work element. However, you may wish to break the work into separate work elements if it provides clarity or better supports project management. Note that different locations do not need to be separated into multiple environmental compliance work elements. Please note: If you work in multiple subbasins, you must use a separate work element for each subbasin, but you may have multiple locations within each subbasin.

    Examples:

    Option 1 (lumping):

    WE: 34. Develop Alternative Water Source
    WE Title: Develop watering troughs and guzzler at Johnson and Smith sites

    Option 2 (splitting):

    WE: 34. Develop Alternative Water Source
    WE Title: Develop watering trough at Johnson site

    WE: 34. Develop Alternative Water Source
    WE Title: Develop guzzler at Smith site
