WE ID:
157. Collect/Generate/Validate Field and Lab Data
Work Element Usage Report
Title:
E: 157 - Maintain the Upper Wind PIT Tag Interrogation System and Ensure Data Collection
Description:
Maintain the upper Wind PIT tag interrogation system (site code WRU) and the associated auxiliary antennas downstream of the site (used for developing and assessing detection efficiency of WRU). This may include tuning of the transceiver, changing batteries, adjustment of solar panels, and replacement of lost or malfunctioning antennas. Assure that the data are collected in a timely manner. USGS will submit data to PTAGIS. Data will be summarized in the annual RM&E reporting, and we will be collaborating with WDFW on use of these data in steelhead estimates and long-term monitoring of Steelhead parr. This site serves in concert with the Mine Reach site to generate adult and juvenile data for the upper Wind River to act as control for Trout Creek as ongoing and proposed restoration actions take place there.
WE Agreement Type:
Contracted

Produce an error checked dataset from interrogation site WRU submitted to the PTAGIS Database

Milestones

7 Milestones
Sort Type Title Start End Status Modified By Modified Date
A EC Environmental compliance requirements complete 11/1/2024 10/31/2025 Concluded Verl Miller 7/31/2024 12:44:45 PM
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 PUBPROTOCOL Review, revise, and finalize study plan sample design protocol and methods in MonitoringResouces.org 11/1/2024 10/31/2025 Active Verl Miller 7/3/2024 8:29:08 AM
Description: The Study Plan's Sample Design, Protocol and Methods for this work element are stored at MonitoringResources.org and need to be completed (i.e., "Finalized" through MonitoringResources.org), preferably prior to data collection. Preparations for contract renewals must include reviewing any previously finalized Sample Designs, Protocols & Methods to ensure that they are consistent with how work will be done in any subsequent contract.
C Suggested Implement Study Plan 11/1/2024 10/31/2025 Active Verl Miller 7/3/2024 8:29:08 AM
Description: Implement the study plan's protocols and sample design consistent with the WE description and methods in the SOW. The start date of this milestone is used to set the completion date for the EC milestone.
D BackUp Secure data back-up 11/1/2024 10/31/2025 Active Verl Miller 7/3/2024 8:29:08 AM
Description: Minimum requirements: Hard copies of field sheets and original dataloggers secured against fire and flood. At least daily data back-up of electronic data on a separate hard drive. Secure cloud-based or off-site location data back-up to preclude catastrophic data loss at least weekly. More frequent cloud/off-site back-up is greatly encouraged. [Timing guidance: from beginning to end of contract]
E Upload Yearly upload of error-checked datasets 11/1/2024 10/31/2025 Active Verl Miller 7/3/2024 8:29:08 AM
Description: Upload datasets with associated metadata to a publicly accessible site each year as soon as they have been QA/QC checked. This generally happens within 6 months for direct field-to-database input, but may be longer if laboratory analysis is required (e.g., scale reading or genetic analyses). If data is not QA/QCed within 1 year, data must be made accessible with acknowledgement of QA/QC limitations. Periods for dataset collection should be no longer than a year, and coincide with the logical biology of the data collection, which may not be on a calendar year. Example of a dataset: redd counts for one species for one season for a particular brood year. Dataset upload requirements apply to both original and derived data, which should be at a level of quality suitable for release to resource co-managers to make decisions – not the rigor required as if you were going to use the data for a peer-reviewed publication.
F Maintain the upper Wind PIT tag interrogation system and assure data collection. 11/1/2024 10/31/2025 Active Verl Miller 7/19/2024 11:37:40 AM
Description: Maintain the upper Wind PIT tag interrogation system and associated WRA (auxiliary site) and troubleshoot or repair as needed and assure that data are being recorded in a format compatible with the PTAGIS database. Download data every 7-14 days and submit data to the PTAGIS database within 24-48 hrs on average.
G DELIV Produce accessible, error-checked datasets 10/31/2025 Active Verl Miller 7/19/2024 11:37:40 AM
Description: Produce an error checked dataset from interrogation site WRU submitted to the PTAGIS Database
