A	1-HIP	HIP3 Risk Determination: Contact BPA EC Lead for risk determination	2/1/2018	5/31/2018	Concluded	Deborah Docherty (Inactive)	9/26/2017 7:53:58 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 . For additional specific guidance or questions, consult the BPA EC lead or the HIP3 BO.

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).
