Title:

E: 202 - Submit 2017 RPA (FCRPS BiOp) Report (01/01/2017 - 12/31/2017)

Description:

BiOp RM&E Projects: BPA requires a structured report of results for projects that have claimed that they support one or more RM&E RPAs under the FCRPS BiOp (i.e., RPAs 50-73). Separate BiOp RPA reports are now required to be completed online in a template to: a) facilitate a consistent summary of results; b) enable a synthesis of information across the entire Columbia River Basin; c) promote a standardized presentation of information to relate outcomes among projects; and d) provide clarity about format requirements for reports under the BiOp.

The online BiOp RPA report in Taurus (www.cbfish.org) should include the data, analyses, and data management completed by your project through December 31st. Any activity after the last day of the Calendar Year should be included in a subsequent BiOp report. For example, if you have completed redd surveys, but have not completed the analyses, you will report the preliminary data (# of redds). You do not need to rush your analyses; they may be reported in the subsequent RPA report.

For each RPA, follow the directions in Taurus for each of the three sections and, as appropriate, input graphical or tabular data, accompanied by explanatory text. These are cumulative summary reports and should show relevant results for the life of your project. Each year, note trends and whether they are changing from one year (or groups of years) to the next.

Upload into Taurus for the FCRPS BiOp (for other BiOps, upload in Pisces as an appendix to the annual report); and notify RMESupport@bpa.gov, and your BPA COTR, that the report is complete. For more guidance see: https://www.cbfish.org/Content/tutorials/Reporting_Guidance_BiOp_2013.pdf.

WE Agreement Type:

Contracted

Deliverable Specification:

The online BiOp RPA report in Taurus (https://www.cbfish.org/BiologicalOpinionAction.mvc/Index/2014/BiOpRpaStatus) should include the data, analyses, and data management completed no later than December 31st. Any activity after the last day of the Calendar Year should be included in a subsequent BiOp report. For example, if you have completed redd surveys, but have not completed the scale analyses, you will report the preliminary data (# of redds), but not (incomplete) age distributions of carcasses, which would be reported in the subsequent CY report.

For each RPA, follow the directions in Taurus for each of the three sections and, input completed graphical or tabular data, accompanied by any complete explanatory text. These are cumulative summary reports and should show relevant results for the life of your project. Each year, note trends and whether they are changing from one year (or groups of years) to the next.
