Title:

J: 197 - Replant and Maintain Riparian Plantings - Potlatch River

Description:

Significant riparian and upland planting have taken place throughout Corral Creek and other watersheds in the Potlatch River system over the past several years. Many of these planting have been reviewed, approved, and funded by BPA under the Latah SWCD Project #2002-061-00 and #2008-604-00.

The planting sites previously approved under 2002-061-00 and/or 2008-604-00 will be maintained through this contract if additional resources are needed beyond those allocated to this similar work element outlined in contract #53815 (Project #2008-604-00).

All plants and materials will be accessed to the various planting sites via 4x4 truck and/or ATV. Contractor will evaluate for survivability/mortality rates, and determine if a replanting is necessary. If necessary, these areas will be replanted and existing plants will be maintained to assure survivability.

Approximately 2,500 plants have been budgeted for replanting these various sites. Due to contract budget limitations, additional planting stock will be purchased with alternative state and federal funds with the majority of the planting labor provided through this contract. Approximately 10 miles of stream bank will be maintained.

		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 (completion can be based on pre-existing environmental documentation from BPA).
B		Update yearly planting crew agreements	2/1/2013	4/30/2013	Concluded	Ken Stinson	7/31/2012 8:32:10 AM
		Description: Latah SWCD staff will evaluate plantings 2 - 3 months post planting to determine survivability/mortality rates. Discussions will be held on levels of success/failure and possible explanations. Latah SWCD will determine whether or not a replant is needed and viable. If replanting is needed, seasonal planting crews will be hired and/or contracted. There may be seasonal crews for fall and spring plantings.
C		Replant and maintain vegetation - fall plantings	9/1/2012	11/30/2012	Concluded	Ken Stinson	7/31/2012 9:45:08 AM
		Description: Maintenance includes scraping/scalping/weeding competing vegetation, and adding sun and browse protectors on both newly planted, and previous years' plantings if needed. Replanting sites where survivability is not adequate to meet restoration objectives is also undertaken. Maintenance to be applied by Latah SWCD staff and/or contracted seasonal crews.
D		Replant and maintain vegetation - spring plantings	3/1/2013	6/30/2013	Concluded	Ken Stinson	7/31/2012 8:37:05 AM
