Work Element Usage Report

Title:

H: 184 - Replacement of Road Crossing #1 at Iron Creek Rd (BIA Rd 84) - CO FY17

Description:

A road crossing on Iron Creek at an intersection with Iron Creek Rd/BIA RD 84 (375126 E, 5333007 N) will be replaced in 2018. The culvert is a fish passage barrier and limits habitat connectivity for redband rainbow trout and access to desirable spawning habitat. Replacement of this crossing will allow access to approximately 0.44 miles (0.71 km) of additional habitat.

The current road crossing is a corrugated metal pipe arch culvert. The culvert is 2.9 m wide and 16.8 m long, it is undersized for a stream of this size (mean active width of 4.4 m) and is not embedded. The culvert has a steep gradient, 4.5% slope, causing it to be a full velocity barrier to redband rainbow trout passage. Additionally, the upstream opening of the culvert has been nearly 60% blocked by the accumulation of woody debris.

The culvert will be removed from the site and replaced with a bridge. The new structure will be able to accommodate the yearly stream flow fluctuations, including a 500 year flood event. The new crossing will be installed by a qualified contractor following the design plans and under the oversight of the subcontracted engineer and direction of project biologists.

WE Agreement Type:

Contracted

Deliverable Specification:

In order to provide migratory redband trout access to approximately 0.71 km (0.44 mi) of spawning habitat in Iron Creek, the CCT in coordination with subcontractors, will replace a culvert that is a complete barrier to fish passage. The new bridge will allow for complete fish passage.

Milestones

9 Milestones

Sort	Type	Title	Start	End	Status	Modified By	Modified Date
A	EC	Environmental compliance requirements complete	2/1/2018	5/31/2018	Concluded	Amy Mai	9/18/2017 11:55:18 AM
		Description: On-the-ground work associated with this work element cannot proceed until this milestone is complete. Milestone is complete when final documentation is received from BPA environmental compliance staff.
B	HIP	Discuss HIP3 ESA coverage with BPA EC lead; obtain HIP3 risk determination	2/1/2018	5/31/2018	Concluded	Amy Mai	9/18/2017 11:55:18 AM
		Description: The EC Lead will determine if work under this work element may be able to have full ESA-coverage (NOAA & USFWS) under the 2013 Habitat Improvement Program Biological Opinion (HIP3). The HIP3 has expanded coverage for projects that may pose a moderate to high risk of impacting an ESA-listed species or critical habitat that would normally require a Biological Assessment. For work that qualifies, projects will undergo a review by the BPA-internal Restoration Review Team (RRT). Before conceptual design commences, contact the EC lead for HIP3 consideration, instruction, and information needs and requirements for coverage eligibility. 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/165
C		Develop RFB for bridge manufacture and delivery and advertise	2/1/2018	2/28/2018	Concluded	Amy Mai	9/20/2017 11:16:52 AM
		Description: CCT project biologists and engineering subcontractor will develop a request for bids (RFB) to manufacture a bridge to replace the existing culvert, following the CCT standard RFB format. The RFB will be submitted to CCT Fish and Wildlife Contract Specialist for review. The CCT Fish and Wildlife Contracts Specialist will advertise the RFB in regional newspapers and trade journals. In addition, the CCT Contracts Specialist may solicit for proposals from individual firms that provide these services, as requested by the project biologists.
D		Select bridge manfacturer and negotiate contract	3/1/2018	3/15/2018	Concluded	Amy Mai	9/20/2017 11:18:49 AM
		Description: CCT project biologists, Resident Fish Program Manager, and engineering subcontractor will evaluate the bridge manufacture bids to insure that they meet design specifications, can be supplied within schedule, and for cost. Following evaluation, they will recommend a manufacturer. The Lead Biologist will notify the CCT Contract Specialist as to the selected contractor. The Contract Specialist will initiate the contracting process (negotiations, approvals, etc...) with the selected firm.
E		Develop RFP for project implementation and advertise	2/1/2018	4/30/2018	Concluded	Amy Mai	9/18/2017 12:05:58 PM
		Description: CCT project biologists and engineering subcontractor will develop a request for proposals (RFP) to implement the culvert replacement, following the CCT standard RFP format. The RFP will be submitted to CCT Fish and Wildlife Contract Specialist for review. The CCT Fish and Wildlife Contracts Specialist will advertise the RFP in regional newspapers and trade journals. In addition, the CCT Contracts Specialist may solicit for proposals from individual firms that provide these services, as requested by the project biologists.
F		Select implementation contractor and negotiate contract	5/1/2018	5/31/2018	Concluded	Amy Mai	9/18/2017 12:05:58 PM
		Description: CCT project biologists and Resident Fish Program Manager will independently review and score the proposals submitted in response to the implementation RFP, using a predetermined standardized scoring protocol. Following independent scoring, they will meet, discuss the scores, and recommend a contractor. The Lead Biologist will notify the CCT Contract Specialist as to the selected contractor. The Contract Specialist will initiate the contracting process (negotiations, approvals, etc...) with the selected firm.
