B 1-HIP HIP3 Risk Determination: Contact BPA EC Lead for risk determination 9/1/2014 8/31/2015 Concluded Ken Stinson 7/24/2014 9:34:08 AM
Description: A project risk determination shall be made before the Sponsor begins preliminary design activities. Sponsor shall contact BPA EC lead to describe project scope for HIP3 Risk Determination. This is a decision point – EC Lead will determine risk (low, medium, or high) and define which milestones will apply. COTR or EC Lead will add the applicable milestones after the EC Lead has made the risk determination. The EC Lead will provide the Sponsor with the required list of conservation measures (Checklists) at this stage. 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/175. For additional specific guidance or questions, consult the BPA EC lead or the HIP3 BO.

F LAMP Determine if contract work could adversely affect Pacific lamprey 9/1/2014 8/31/2015 Concluded Ken Stinson 7/24/2014 9:34:09 AM
Description: Contractor will review work proposed under this contract and determine the following: 1) Will field work take place in any area where lamprey may be present? (Any tributary or subbasin where anadromous fish exist is also accessible Pacific lamprey habitat.) 2) Are there any stream disturbing activities or instream activities that could adversely impact Pacific lamprey? 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).
G ESA Report lamprey observation and catch data to USFWS by Feb. 15 2/1/2015 2/15/2015 Concluded Ken Stinson 7/24/2014 9:34:09 AM
Description: [IF ALL WORK UNDER THE SOW IS IN SUBBASINS BLOCKED TO ANADROMOUS SPECIES, ASK YOUR COTR TO CANCEL THIS MILESTONE.] All contractors doing instream work in anadromous fish areas (e.g., surveys, habitat improvements, electrofishing, screwtraps, etc.) are required to report annually, by Feb 15 each year, on lamprey observations or catch, including zero, during the previous calendar year to christina_luzier@fws.gov at US Fish and Wildlife Service. A data template is available - ask your COTR for a link. See page 10 of 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) for life stage pictures.
H ANS Inspect water craft, waders, boots, etc. to be used in or near water for aquatic invasive species 9/1/2014 8/31/2015 Concluded Ken Stinson 7/24/2014 9:34:09 AM
Description: Aquatic invasive Species Guidance: Uniform Decontamination Procedures: http://www.aquaticnuisance.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/Recommended-Protocols-and-Standards-for-Watercraft-Interception-Programs-for-Dreissenid-Mussels-in-the-Western-United-States-September-8.pdf -- Best management guidance for boaters: http://www.coastal.ca.gov/ccbn/bmp-boaters.pdf -- Aquatic Nuisance Species newsletter: http://www.aquaticnuisance.org/newsletters -- State Aquatic Invasive Species Management Plans: Oregon: http://www.clr.pdx.edu/publications/files/OR_ANS_Plan.pdf -- Washington: http://www.wdfw.wa.gov/publications/pub.php?id=00105 -- Montana: http://www.anstaskforce.gov/Montana-FINAL_PLAN.pdf -- Idaho: http://www.idahoag.us/Categories/Environment/InvasiveSpeciesCouncil/documents/Idaho%20Aquatic%20Nuisance%20Species%20Plan.pdf

J PI Complete and document public involvement activities and provide to EC Lead 9/1/2014 8/31/2015 Concluded Ken Stinson 7/24/2014 9:34:09 AM
Description: Public involvement is any outreach to the public or landowners about specific actions that are proposed. This could be public letters, meetings, newspaper notices, posted notices at local facilities, or information booths at local events.
K ESA Participate in ESA Consultation 9/1/2014 8/31/2015 Concluded Ken Stinson 7/24/2014 9:34:09 AM
Description: Work may include drafting BA, completing HIP III BO Project Notification Form, submitting high risk project designs to Restoration Review Team (RRT), providing copy of Section 10, 4(d), or 6 permit, etc., or submitting Hatchery Genetic Management Plan to BPA for ESA consultation initiation, and providing input for the ensuing consultation.
L NHPA Participate in Cultural/Historic Resource Consultation 9/1/2014 8/31/2015 Concluded Ken Stinson 7/24/2014 9:34:09 AM
Description: BPA must initiate the Sec. 106 consultation – sponsors cannot do this themselves. Provide the EC Lead with appropriate information to help them initiate Sec. 106 consultation (examples include maps, a detailed project description, GIS data, etc.). Provide this information to your EC Lead early to avoid affecting your construction schedule. Section 106 consultations typically take 4 months to complete, assuming access is available for survey fieldwork (e.g., weather permitting). If the EC Lead and sponsor have agreed that the sponsor will be responsible for contracting out some of the compliance work (such as surveys), the EC Lead will assist the project sponsor in drafting a SOW for the contract to ensure that the appropriate methodology and deliverables are included. Survey methods and the area of potential effects map needs to be shared and reviewed by BPA archaeologists and the SHPO prior to initiation of cultural resources fieldwork. The EC Lead will include this information in the letter initiating consultation with the SHPO/THPO and tribes. Draft cultural resource survey reports must be submitted to the BPA archaeologist for review. Any comments resulting from this review need to be addressed in the final report. BPA, or another federal cost share partner if they have been determined the lead for consultation, has the sole authority to submit the final survey report to the SHPO/THPO. Submitting these reports yourself or having your consultant submit them will only result in delays to your approval.

Obtain sign-off from BPA's environmental compliance group that environmental requirements are complete for each applicable work element in the 2013 performance period. Submit environmental compliance information as requested by BPA for review of NEPA compliance.
