Title:
G: 175 - Produce design for in-stream habitat restoration on Muddy Springs
Description:
The area of interest is Muddy Springs Creek, which is a tributary to the Pahsimeroi River. This was one of the four systems re-connected after the P-9 project. This project reach of Muddy Springs within the Hayes property is approximately 10,000 feet of meandering stream. The lower reach was de-watered through most of the year for many years and was reconnected as a part of the P-9 Project in approximately 2015. Much of the stream has recovered on it's own but additional in-stream structure and vegetative plantings could increase it's viability for all species of fish (including juvenile rearing Snake River Chinook and steelhead). This project will improve habitat forms and processes for juvenile spring Chinook salmon and summer steelhead. Juvenile salmonid habitat enhancement will be accomplished through narrowing the channel width by placement large woody debris, channel spanning logs and BDA’s along with extensive riparian planting. Intended flooding in some areas will help reduced sediment in both Muddy Springs and the Pahsimeroi. Project actions will provide overwintering and summer habitat for juvenile fish and address limiting factors for salmonid production in the Pahsimeroi River watershed, such as reduced stream complexity and degraded riparian conditions.

Under this work element engineers will be hired to develop a plan on this reach of Muddy Springs. The stream has been fully fenced and is currently a excluded from grazing. This project will likely be installed in three phases over the next three years.

Work with landowner, Engineer, IDFG and BPA to develop alternatives for Muddy Spring to improve and increase instream habitat in the two mile reach of Muddy Springs. This plan development will provide preferred alternatives for landowner and BPA to consider for funding in the following year BPA contract for implementation. It will also include options that may include alternatives that is desirable for wildlife that can be considered for other funding such as USFWS.

This work was prioritized as HIGH by The Upper Salmon Basin Watershed Tech Team and was ranked 78 (>61 is high priority).

Description: Ensure bid package includes technical review criteria and HIP guidance. All projects are subject to Engineering Technical Services (ETS) review. Sponsors shall follow their own procurement process, so long as there is no conflict of interest. BPA’s preferred method is Engineer/Procure/Construct (EPC) or a two-phase design build selection process. If not included in the bid package, then the construction oversight shall be bid in accordance with the sponsor’s procurement process. Final design budget shall be provided to the COR once a design subcontractor is selected and the line item budget updated as necessary.

Description: Provide month and year of projected construction start date to assist in project planning, environmental compliance, planning and design review timelines. Provide during conceptual design stage and no later than 15% design. Include in WE description if possible.
E Design3 Develop and submit project concepts (typically 15% design) for review 6/12/2021 2/25/2022 Concluded Timothy Ludington (Inactive) 11/3/2021 6:53:47 AM
Description: Develop conceptual strategy, restoration approach, and/or preliminary design. Submit conceptual design and expected construction start date to the COR and EC Lead for review. Reviews shall include COR, EC, and ETS. EC Lead to determine other reviews as needed. Allow one month for review. At 15%, coordinate with BPA to schedule a site visit to review project concepts, goals, and objectives. . A typical site visit will include review of limiting factors and pertinent studies or reports that document restoration targets for implementation. Additional data that may be presented and reviewed (e.g., high resolution aerial photography, topographic maps, soil maps, or GIS/CAD data layers).
