  • BLM Wood River Wetland Water Quality and Subsidence Reversal Monitoring Summary 2012, January 14, 2013
    BLM Wood River Wetland Water Quality and Subsidence Reversal Monitoring Summary 2012, January 14, 2013 Background: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) completed a Resource Management Plan for the Wood River Wetland in 1996. The primary goals and objectives for the 3,000 acre parcel were to improve water quality and quantity entering Agency Lake and provide habitat for endangered species, other wildlife species, and to provide for recreational opportunities. Recent management history can be summarized as follows: 1996 - Grazing cessation and implementation of seasonal flooding and water management infrastructure. 1996-2005 - Water management aimed at minimizing nutrient export (minimal pumping) and reduced irrigation. This management led to high wetland water nutrient loads and lack of perennial emergent vegetation cover over much of the property (see Carpenter et al 2009). o Typically, approximately 1,000 acre-feet of irrigation was applied in September. 2006-present – Implementation of a carefully managed water regime aimed at optimizing vegetation establishment, water storage and discharge, water quality treatment, and the accumulation of new organic soil (subsidence reversal). Pumping and irrigation were substantially increased. o Increased level of water quality, soils, and vegetatative cover monitoring to better understand and adapt to changing vegetation and water quality outcomes. 2008 – Five Artesian wells with high nutrient concentrations were fully decommissioned and/or capped with ball valves/pressure-gauges. This report summarizes recent water quality and subsidence reversal monitoring reuslts and water management data. Current Water Management: Typically, a water management level target is set for the beginning and end of the growing season (the 2012 target is the red line in Figure 1).

  • The Klamath Bird Observatory 2004 Bird Monitoring Effort Report
    Summary Report on Long-term Bird Monitoring Efforts by the Klamath Bird Observatory in 2005 Robert I. Frey and John D. Alexander 16 December 2005 Background The Klamath Bird Observatory (KBO) continued its comprehensive, long-term bird monitoring program in the Klamath Bioregion of northern California and southern Oregon during 2005. The objectives of this program are to collect data that provide an index to species diversity and abundance in riparian and upland habitats, to evaluate the reproductive success and population health of Neotropical migratory and resident birds, to maintain a long-term monitoring effort for tracking landbird population trends, and to test methods for effectively monitoring special species. The Klamath Bioregion lies within the Partners in Flight (PIF) Pacific and Intermountain West Avifaunal Biomes, which includes 35 bird species identified as focal species for conservation and monitoring efforts (Altman 1999, 2000, Rich et al. 2004; Tables 1a and 1b). KBO’s monitoring efforts are part of a regional program that started in the early 90s (Klamath Demographic Monitoring Network; Alexander et al. 2004). As a part of this program, during 2005 KBO maintained a long-term effort to track population trends and demographics at constant effort mist-netting stations, breeding bird census routes and extensive point count census routes throughout the Bioregion. The census efforts are documented in a separate report (Stephens and Alexander 2005). This report is focused on the summary of 2005 Constant-Effort Stations (CES), Rapid Ornithological Inventories (ROI), Special Species Monitoring, Technical Training, and Outreach efforts. These efforts were designed and completed in close collaboration with the US Forest Service Redwood Sciences Laboratory (RSL).

  • Life History and Monitoring of Upper Klamath- Agency Lakes Adfluvial Redband Trout
    Life History and Monitoring of Upper Klamath- Agency Lakes Adfluvial Redband Trout William R. Tinniswood (Author) Michael Harrington (Editor) Klamath Watershed District Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife 2015 Introduction Spawning surveys are the primary monitoring tool for monitoring bull trout and anadromous fish species in Oregon (Jacobs et al. 2009, Gallagher et al. 2007, Jacobsen et al. 2014,). Randomized redd counts are utilized to monitor steelhead escapement on coastal Oregon tributaries (Jacobsen et al. 2014). Numerous studies of disparate salmonid species have shown positive significant relationships between redd counts and estimates of escapement (Gallagher et al. 2007), redd counts are strongly correlated with adult escapements (Dunham et al. 2001) and bull trout redd counts can detect a 50% decline in the population over 10 years (Howell and Sankovich 2012). However, redd counts can have significant sources of bias and error (Dunham et al. 2001), 5 year trends in redd counts can be misleading (Howell and Sankovich 2012) and redd counts should be conducted by experienced surveyors (Howell and Sankovich 2012, Muhlfield et al. 2006). The primary sources of spawning survey error include (Dunham et al. 2001, Holocek and Walters 2007). 1) Inexperienced and/or surveyor variability 2) Index surveys 3) Species overlap (ie. brown trout, brook trout, and hatchery rainbow trout) 4) Redd identification a.

  • Wood River Ditch Fish Screen
    Wood River Ditch Fish Screen State(s): Oregon Managing Agency/Organization: Trout Unlimited Type of Organization: Nonprofit Project Status: Underway Project type: WNTI Project Project action(s): : Fish passage, Riparian or Instream Habitat Restoration Trout species benefitted: Interior Redband Trout Population: Wood River, upper Klamath Basin Project summary: The Wood River Ditch (WRD), Klamath County, Oregon, provides 30 cubic feet per second (CFS) of water delivery to irrigate approximately 2,175 acres in the Wood River valley. Three conventional, fixed-speed irrigation pumps provide water from the Wood River to the WRD. A rotary drum fish screen was installed at the point of diversion on the right bank of the Wood River by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) in 1997; however, the fish screen is in disrepair and no longer prevents native fish, including Redband Trout from becoming entrained in the ditch. In 2016 and 2017, ODFW personnel collected over 400 age-0 and age-1 Redband Trout in the ditch. Furthermore, the point of diversion is located immediately downstream of most Redband Trout spawning habitat in the Wood River. Trout Unlimited (TU) is working with the water users, the landowner, ODFW, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the U.S. Forest Service to address these issues. The goal of this project is to eliminate entrainment of native fishes while ensuring water delivery by installing a functioning fish screen and energy efficient irrigation pumps. This project represents an important step in protecting Redband Trout populations in the upper Klamath basin (UKB), reducing energy demand and water withdrawals, establishing collaborative and conservation- focused partnerships with private landowners and water users, and builds upon recent restoration efforts in the Wood River watershed.
