198331900New Marking and Monitoring Techniques for FishNMFS 1,100,000 770,000Although we appreciate the difficulties that arose this year in deciding on an overall FY03 budget plan for all of the mainstem projects, the current solution of using FY03 levels of funding for FY04 does not work for Project 198331900 (development of PIT-tag technology), which is an R&D-based project whose budget depends on what is being developed. We discovered a budget problem last December and consequently submitted a formal request to the Council requesting a change in budget. This problem got lost in the negotiation shuffle that occurred during January - June. In February and in May, we expressed to Council and NMFS staff that the budget levels being used for discussion were inadequate. We really need a budget closer to $1100K for FY04 than $878K to get the high priority tasks done for this project. The original estimate in May 2002 for FY04 was $1032K and in December 2002, it was $1254K. If we must live within the $878k, we would need to delay some actions and/or reduce scope. We certainly would not recommend a delay to the Corner Collector work, given all of the effort it took to get that project moving. The idea to try to capitalize this project was also raised this spring. I immediately followed up on this approach and learned that it would not satisfy BPA's definition of a capital project (contract of >$1M and having some worth after 10 years). I then wrote to various Council and NMFS staff to provide them with this information. Since it seems to still be on the table, I thought I would add it to this statement. We know that BPA is aware of these aspects for this project.   n/a
198335000Nez Perce Tribal HatcheryNPT 2,028,000 2,096,952Year-2001 projected budgets stated FY'05 as $1,974,000; however, the rule applied here is to increase the FY'04 budget by 3.4% to project the FY'05 amount. In addition, we are finding that O&M costs and personnel requirements could not be met if we decreased the FY'05 budget. Having the FY'05 budget at $2,096952 is more in line with the anticipated 10 year projections based on inflation.  2,028,000 1,974,000O&M, portable equipment to be acquired - could be capitalized. $124K in 2003 (within year reallocation). 2005 estimate - higher than original projection.

198909801Evaluate Supplementation Studies in Idaho Rivers (ISS)USFWS/IFRO 125,590 128,270The 2004 budget reflects a decrease in activities associated with project 198909801, from 2003. As a result of this decrease, there is a reduction in the requested budget for 2004. This decreased request is due to: 1. completion of Pete King Creek production PIT tagging in 2003. The completion of this portion of the project will result in a reduction of the requested amount due to a reduction in labor costs associated with PIT tagging and a reduction in funds needed for purchasing of those PIT tags. 2. a vehicle lease expiring in 2003. There are no vehicle lease costs associated with project 198909801 for 2004. The estimated budget request for 2005 is increased from 2004. In 2004, PIT tagging of Clear Creek production will be be completed. This results in a reduction of requested funds for labor and PIT tags associated with this portion of the project, for 2005. After that reduction, the 2005 budget was increased by 5% over 2004. This estimated budget reflects a base budget request and would not reflect any potential increases in the requested budget due to expansion of the scope of the project.  125,590 128,270On track.

Additional monies in 2004 will be needed to contract a engineer to oversee the on the ground implementation of the stablilzation work on the 2556 feet of Bridge Creek starting from the new culvert on the Old State Road.The design for this stabilization is very detailed and complicated an engineer will be needed on site during the channel work to insure success. The additional monies in 2005 will allow for the implementation of the lower channel which will involve the construction of a new channel and outlet to the San Poil River. I have obtained grant money from Ferry County Conservation District to complete fencing and money from NRCS to do planting and off site watering troughs.I am working with the DOT on joint funding for replacement of culvert passage barriers on Highway 21 along the San Poil River.

The budget breakdown by phase indicates additional monies above the FY2002 provincial review estimates are needed for Planning/Design to complete detailed channel design on property purchased under the Albeni Falls Mitigation Project. Other budget phases generally are within 10% of the totals estimated in the provincial review. FY2005 - The total of sponsor' budget projections are $1,564,338. We didn't see a Council recommendation posted for this project during this fiscal year. The budget breakdown by phase includes 69,788 for P/D; $881,728 for C/I; $335,485 for O/M; and $277,337 for M/E. A substantial increase in C/I over past years is reflective of completed design work that will allow restoration to proceed for 6,600 linear feet of stream channel.

Upon Council aproval of step 1, we will begin the Step 2 NEPA process included in 2004. By 2005, we should be able to construct the facility and complete work in 2006.  1,165,000 1,715,000Check on project adjustment 03, needed to add NEPA work, sponsor needs to restore elements to project..

199107500Yakima Phase II Screens - Construction*BOR 300,000 400,000There are two screens remaining to be built in the Phase II program. Both of these screens were scheduled for construction in 2002 and 2003. However, delays caused by right-of-way problems and plan changes have required rescheduling of actual construction to FY 2004 and FY 2005. We will open bids on the Packwood screen in mid-August 2003 and award a contract in September 2003. However, most of the contractor earnings will be early in FY 2004. The Fogarty screen plans are being revised and this screen construction contract will be awarded in September 2004 with actual construction early in FY 2005. The revised dollar amounts for FY 2004 and FY 2005 will provide the funding needed to meet accrued expenses during the construction period for these screens. This year we didn't have a signed funding amendment until 8 months into the fiscal year. Fortunately we had some remaining FY 2002 funds to carry us through and our expenses were light. In the past, we were able to obligate current year funding to pay for construction in the following year. Since this is no longer acceptable, it will be critical that we have a signed funding amendment before the beginning of the fiscal year so that we are assured prior to contract award that funding will be available to pay construction related expenses. 300,000 400,000Capital project.

Also, Quarter Circle O property O&M activities did not occur during 2002, and the contract expired. As with the other properties, weed control, maintenance of previous plantings, etc. are needed. Activities for which we request funding are necessary to protect BPA’s previous investments in wildlife mitigation.

The revised 2004 amount has been reviewed by Project Personnel and BPA Environmental Coordinator. Reduction from original figure is due to deleting "other agency support/participation" and ISRP concerns over the genetic monitoring program. In 2005, the budget in the 2003 Solicitation Form is $3,046,200. This figure would be reduced by $400K to $500K for the same reasons as in 2004 but also interaction studies maybe significantly reduced due to resolution of ecological studies between coho, listed spring chinook, listed steelhead and sockeye.  2,213,597 2,288,859Contractors subtract 60k for agency/tribal participation, and 67K for genetics work that ISRP did not support.

This funded amount consisted of applying a $94,500 Contract balance from 2002 and PIT tag costs of $55,125 to the amount of money to be received from BPA. After PIT tag costs ($55,125) and the 2002 Contract balance ($94,500) are subtracted, the JCAPE project received $771,831 for 2003 from BPA. This value is higher than the 2003 obligated value of $762,079 provided by the NPPC. This represents a difference of $9,752 or 1.3%. The 2004 JCAPE budget recommendation from NPPC is $923,887. The JCAPE budget as determined by the sponsor meets that amount of $923,887 (O&M $517,783, M&E $406,104). This amount includes $55,125 for PIT tags, no training, required travel, and no computer or computer software costs. The 2005 budget is $955,299 (O&M $535,387 and M&E $419,912) and this number represents a 3.4% increase over the 2004 approved budget number.  923,887 923,887On track.

The FY04 request is less than originally estimated because we now plan to discontinue aerial searches of the Grande Ronde and Imnaha rivers (~$25,000 reduction in expenses), and discontinue searches using cameras (~$54,000 reduction). The Grande Ronde and Imnaha rivers will be searched by another agency, and we have compiled enough data to estimate the number of redds constructed in deep-water areas. The project now focuses on long-term monitoring in the Snake River, sharing the work with the Idaho Power Company (IPC). IPC and other managers have encouraged our continued involvement to ensure data credibility and consistency. Thus we are seeking funding for FY04 and beyond. 52,000 52,000Scope change downward.

Had proposed five objectives but agreed to defer objectives four and five, modeling and managmenet questions. Objective four, can proceed forward, probably through a within year allocaion for about $250 K for 2004. Would be a multi-year effort. $500 K increase in overall project proposed in 2004 to obtain physical measurements of plume. Check the dollars for objective three.E

199901300Ahtanum Creek Watershed AssessmentYN 245,000 327,000The existing project was initially intended to perform the analytical steps necessary to identify fish rehabilitation measures. Preliminary recommendations have been implemented and the results have been positive and immediate. We have observed juvenile chinook in Ahtanum Creek for the first time in decades. Similarly, adult bull trout have been observed in the lower creek for the first time since the early 1960's. Steelhead redd counts have also increased steadily as have outmigrating smolt numbers. Ahtanum Creek is also one of the strongholds for coho in the Yakima Subbasin. The final watershed analysis document is nearing completion. To effectively continue implementing the rehabilitation recommendations we will require the full $245,000 requested in the original FY2001 proposal. Considering the success achieved to date, increased funding in FY2005 would be warranted and well spent. Thus, we are requesting an FY2005 budget of $327,000. 221,313 221,314Looking for the review process numbers proposed. Accruals are looking good. Possible within year request for additional funds. 05 number represents implementation of the assessment work, would be a scope change. Assessment should be complete in the next few months.
