Cramer and Associates, 600 NW Fariss Road, Gresham, OR 97030 S.P. Cramer and Associates Executive Summary Irrigation in the Yakima Valley has altered the regional hydrology through changes in streamflow and the spatial extent of groundwater. Natural topographic features such as draws, coulees and ravines are used as drains to discharge irrigation water (surface and groundwater) back to the Yakima River. Salmonids are documented in some of the drains raising the question of irrigation impacts on habitat as there is speculation that the drains were historic habitat. We assessed the volume and temporal variability of streamflow that would occur in six drains without the influence of irrigation. We used gage data from other streams that are not influenced by irrigation to estimate streamflow volume and timing, and we compared the results to two reference streams in the Yakima River Valley that have a small amount of perennial streamflow. We estimate that natural streamflow in the six study drains ranged from 33 to 390 acre·ft/year depending on the contributing area. Runoff occurred infrequently often spanning years between flow events, and was unpredictable. The geology of the study drains was highly permeable indicating that infiltration of what runoff occurs would be rapid.

  • Times When Spawning Or Incubating Salmonids Are Least Likely to Be Within Washington State Freshwaters
    Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife TIMES WHEN SPAWNING OR INCUBATING SALMONIDS ARE LEAST LIKELY TO BE WITHIN WASHINGTON STATE FRESHWATERS June 1, 2018 Page 1 Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) biologists will use this table as a starting point when they consider timing restrictions for any hydraulic project for which they will issue a written HPA. WDFW developed this table based on the general conditions and fish life histories present within broad reaches of stream or sub- basins. Based on the site-specific conditions, circumstances, work proposed, and fish life stages present, timing restrictions for individual hydraulic project sites may differ from those upon which this table was based; therefore alternative work times may be appropriate for some projects. The table identifies times when salmonid eggs and fry are least likely to be incubating within stream gravels. In the case of some large streams, such as the Columbia and Snake Rivers, outmigration timing of smolts was also considered. Check the listing for the county in which in-water work will occur to identify times that may avoid impact to spawning and incubating fish life. Biologists will also consider such things as the expected impact of construction activities, equipment type and access, life history stages of all species of fish life present, presence or absence of spawning habitat and incubating fish at or near the project site, weather (heavy rain, snow, frozen soils), work site containment, wastewater management, best management practices proposed by the project proponent, mitigation measures volunteered or imposed upon the project, and other circumstances and conditions when permitting in-water work.

  • Wildlife Report for the Rachel Road Alignment Study in Richland, Benton County, Washington
    Wildlife Report for the Rachel Road Alignment Study in Richland, Benton County, Washington Dated February 3, 2017 Prepared for: Pete Rogalsky, Public Works Director City of Richland 840 Northgate Avenue P.O. Box 190, MS-26 Richland, WA 99352 Office (509) 942-7558 [email protected] Prepared by: Vincent Barthels, Biologist J-U-B ENGINEERS, Inc. 422 W. Riverside, Suite 304 Spokane, WA 99201 Office (509) 458-3727 Cell (509) 951-9564 [email protected] Preface The attached Wildlife Report was developed pursuant to Richland Municipal Code (Title 22.10) and details the listed sensitive species and current habitat conditions that fall within the defined project study area, which is the Amon Creek Natural Preserve (ACNP). This report aims to evaluate plant communities and wildlife functions and values contained within the study area. This report also outlines Best Management Practices (BMPs) and potential mitigation measures that could be implemented to offset any encroachments from roadway development activities implemented in this area. It should be noted that the proposed trail enhancement renderings and vegetation re-plantings outlined in the report are preliminary conceptual designs; final designs have not been performed by J-U-B ENGINEERS, Inc. The vegetation planting suggestions presented herein are intended for general habitat functionality only. Prior to final design, J-U-B ENGINEERS, Inc. suggests that the impacts of the recommendations outlined in this report be analyzed by a licensed professional engineer with regard to bank stability and slope protection. Should the engineering analysis show that changes to the proposed recommendations are required, such changes should be analyzed for habitat functionality by the project biologist.

  • Open Spaces, Trails, and Open Space Protection in the Mid-Columbia Today
    RROSN Vision Plan III. Open Spaces, Trails, and Open Space Protection in the Mid-Columbia Today No other place on Earth is like the Mid-Columbia. Massive basalt flows, cataclysmic floods, and other geologic processes created the ridges and rivers landscape that defines our sense of place. Visual and physical access to these places – views of them and from them – help us to understand and physically and emotionally connect with a landscape we recognize as “home”. Open spaces, whether viewed or explored, are our portals to making these connections. Our unique geographic region (Figure 3) is the home of a significant number of open space and trail resources that benefit both Tri-City residents and visitors. In fact, the “To be rooted is Mid-Columbia region is a hub for numerous trail perhaps the most networks (Figure 4) and federal, state, regional, and important but least local open space areas (Figure 5). These resources understood need of include a National Monument, several National Wildlife Refuges, a National Historic Landmark, a Wilderness the human soul.” Area, a State Park, sites eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, a tri-state water trail system spanning - Simone Weil over 1000 river miles, several large regional parks, and many other special places and long-distance trails. This chapter presents brief descriptions of some of the federal, state, and larger regional-scale open space and trail recreational resources that are found in the Mid- Columbia Region. They form the context for the many other city and county resources that are also listed. This chapter also lists policies and regulations available to jurisdictions associated with hillside and floodplain developments.

Adding log to a river slows the water, which reduces erosion and encourages the water to flow into the protected side channels, creating additional areas for salmon to spawn. Logs also create places for fish to rest, feed, and hide from predators. Finally, logs change the flow of the river, creating riffles and pools, which give salmon more varied and productive habitat. This project is the first phase of a broader effort to improve stream habitat. The river is used by summer steelhead trout, which is a species listed as threatened with extinction under the federal Endangered Species Act. The Asotin County Conservation District will contribute $12,000 in a federal grant. Visit RCO’s online Project Snapshot for more information and photographs of this project. (20-1037) Asotin County Conservation District Grant Awarded: $80,000 Designing a Barrier Removal in Cougar Creek The Asotin County Conservation District will use this grant to develop a construction-ready design to replace a culvert where Cougar Creek flows under the Grande Ronde River Road in southeast Washington. Culverts are pipes or other structures that carry water under roads and often block fish migration because they are too steep, too tall, or too small to allow fish to pass through easily.

  • Chapter 1 Provides More Detail on the Planning Process and Its Broader Context
    per Yakima Steelhead Recovery Plan Extracted from the 2005 Yakima Subbasin Salmon Recovery Plan with Updates September 30th, 2009 Compiled by: Alex Conley, Yakima Basin Fish & Wildlife Recovery Board Joel Freudenthal, Yakima County David Lind, Yakama Nation Phil Mees, Benton County Richard Visser, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife Cover photo by Ken Bevis, WDFW Yakima Basin Fish & Wildlife Recovery Board http://www.ybfwrb.org/ Contact: [email protected] or (509) 453-4104 p. i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction The federal Endangered Species Act (ESA) requires listing species that have declined to the point that they are threatened with extinction and sets up regulations to protect these species. Recovering a listed species to the point that it no longer needs protection under the ESA is an important goal, both for people with a direct interest in the health of that species and for the individuals and groups who may be negatively affected by regulations put into place to protect a listed species. The ESA requires development of recovery plans that review a listed species’ status, set recovery goals, and identify actions required to recover it and remove it from the list. Recovery plans are non-regulatory documents that provide guidance on how to recover a species; they do not create any binding commitments or legal mandates. In 1999, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA Fisheries) classified Middle Columbia River Steelhead as a threatened species under the ESA. In 2006, NOAA Fisheries revised its listing to apply only to the anadromous (ocean-going) form of Oncorhynchus mykiss, commonly known as steelhead.1 This listing applies to steelhead that spawn in a large portion of central and eastern Washington and Oregon (See Figure 1.1).
