A ECCOMP Obtain BPA's EC Lead sign-off that EC requirements are complete 2/15/2015 2/14/2016 Concluded Nick Bouwes (Inactive) 1/13/2015 6:56:09 PM
Description: The EC? column on the contract SOW tab in Pisces must have a "full moon" for each work element requiring environmental compliance before ground-disturbing implementation of that work element can begin. You will receive verbal or email notification from the EC Lead when a work element or, in rare instances, a portion of a work element is approved for implementation.
B 1-HIP HIP3 Risk Determination: Contact BPA EC Lead for risk determination 2/15/2015 2/14/2016 Concluded Nick Bouwes (Inactive) 1/13/2015 6:56:09 PM
Description: A project risk determination shall be made before the Sponsor begins preliminary design activities. Sponsor shall contact BPA EC lead to describe project scope for HIP3 Risk Determination. This is a decision point – EC Lead will determine risk (low, medium, or high) and define which milestones will apply. COTR or EC Lead will add the applicable milestones after the EC Lead has made the risk determination. The EC Lead will provide the Sponsor with the required list of conservation measures (Checklists) at this stage. The HIP3 activity categories and risk criteria are located in the “Note” section of the work element background page here: https://www.cbfish.org/WorkElement.mvc/Summary/175. For additional specific guidance or questions, consult the BPA EC lead or the HIP3 BO.
C LAMP Determine if contract work could adversely affect Pacific lamprey 2/15/2015 2/14/2016 Concluded Nick Bouwes (Inactive) 1/13/2015 6:56:10 PM
Description: Contractor will review work proposed under this contract and determine the following: 1) Will field work take place in any area where lamprey may be present? (Any tributary or subbasin where anadromous fish exist is also accessible Pacific lamprey habitat.) 2) Are there any stream disturbing activities or instream activities that could adversely impact Pacific lamprey? Examples of activities posing a threat to lamprey may include (this list is not intended to be all-inclusive): aquatic habitat improvements, fish passage improvements, culvert replacements, water diversions, altered management of water flows, dewatering of any portions of streams, or alteration of irrigation practices. If the answer is yes to BOTH 1 and 2, the contractor must implement USFWS Best Management Practices to Minimize Adverse Effects to Pacific Lamprey (Entosphenus tridentatus) http://www.fws.gov/pacific/Fisheries/sphabcon/lamprey/pdf/Best%20Management%20Practices%20for%20Pacific%20Lamprey%20April%202010%20Version.pdf (BMPs).

Description: [IF ALL WORK UNDER THE SOW IS IN SUBBASINS BLOCKED TO ANADROMOUS SPECIES, ASK YOUR COTR TO CANCEL THIS MILESTONE.] All contractors doing instream work (e.g., surveys, habitat improvements, electrofishing, screwtraps, etc.) in anadromous fish areas are required to annually report lamprey observations or catch, including zero, by Feb 15 for the previous calendar year’s work. A data template is available at: (https://efw.bpa.gov/contractors/docs/Lamprey_Database_Template.xls) As per instructions on the form, email your data to christina_luzier@fws.gov at US Fish and Wildlife Service and CC your COTR. For identification of lamprey life stages see page 10 of USFWS Best Management Practices to Minimize Adverse Effects to Pacific Lamprey (Entosphenus tridentatus) http://www.fws.gov/pacific/Fisheries/sphabcon/lamprey/pdf/Best%20Management%20Practices%20for%20Pacific%20Lamprey%20April%202010%20Version.pdf.

G PI Complete and document public involvement activities and provide to EC Lead 2/15/2015 2/13/2016 Concluded Nick Bouwes (Inactive) 1/13/2015 6:56:11 PM
Description: Public involvement is any outreach to the public or landowners about specific actions that are proposed. This could be public letters, meetings, newspaper notices, posted notices at local facilities, or information booths at local events.
H ESA Participate in ESA Consultation 2/15/2015 2/13/2016 Concluded Nick Bouwes (Inactive) 1/13/2015 6:56:11 PM
Description: Work may include drafting BA, completing HIP III BO Project Notification Form, submitting high risk project designs to Restoration Review Team (RRT), providing copy of Section 10, 4(d), or 6 permit, etc., or submitting Hatchery Genetic Management Plan to BPA for ESA consultation initiation, and providing input for the ensuing consultation.
I NHPA Participate in Cultural/Historic Resource Consultation 2/15/2015 2/13/2016 Concluded Nick Bouwes (Inactive) 1/13/2015 6:56:11 PM
Description: BPA must initiate the Sec. 106 consultation – sponsors cannot do this themselves. Provide the EC Lead with appropriate information to help them initiate Sec. 106 consultation (examples include maps, a detailed project description, GIS data, etc.). Provide this information to your EC Lead early to avoid affecting your construction schedule. Section 106 consultations typically take 4 months to complete, assuming access is available for survey fieldwork (e.g., weather permitting). If the EC Lead and sponsor have agreed that the sponsor will be responsible for contracting out some of the compliance work (such as surveys), the EC Lead will assist the project sponsor in drafting a SOW for the contract to ensure that the appropriate methodology and deliverables are included. Survey methods and the area of potential effects map needs to be shared and reviewed by BPA archaeologists and the SHPO prior to initiation of cultural resources fieldwork. The EC Lead will include this information in the letter initiating consultation with the SHPO/THPO and tribes. Draft cultural resource survey reports must be submitted to the BPA archaeologist for review. Any comments resulting from this review need to be addressed in the final report. BPA, or another federal cost share partner if they have been determined the lead for consultation, has the sole authority to submit the final survey report to the SHPO/THPO. Submitting these reports yourself or having your consultant submit them will only result in delays to your approval.
