3.14 Transportation SECTION 3 AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT, ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES, AND MITIGATION 3.14 TRANSPORTATION The regional transportation network in and around the Project Area is managed by several jurisdictions, including Harney County, individual communities within the County, and the state of Oregon. There is also an extensive network of private roads and public access roads on land administered by Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) that provide access to large parcels of rangeland in and around the project area. This section describes the existing transportation network and how the proposed Project would affect that network during the short-term construction phase and during long-term operation. 3.14.1 Methodology This section was prepared using information from a variety of federal, state, and local planning documents sources, including: Oregon Department of Transportation website. Harney County Transportation System Plan. Three River Resource Management Plan. Andrews Management Unit Resource Management Plan. Steens Mountain Cooperative Management and Protection Area Resource Management Plan. Steens Mountain Travel Management Plan Malheur National Wildlife Refuge Master Plan. Additional policy and procedural guidance was obtained from the following sources: Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, as amended. BLM Land Use Planning Handbook (H-1601-1). BLM National Environmental Policy Act Handbook (H-1790-1). The information from these sources was used to assess the existing transportation conditions within the Project Area and to assess the short term and long terms effects of the Proposed Action, Action Alternatives, and the No Action Alternative on transportation within the Project Area. Where appropriate, mitigation measures have been identified to reduce or avoid anticipated adverse effects. The analysis also addresses several comments received from the public during the EIS scoping process. Comments from agency representatives, local organizations and private citizens requested that the following issues relevant to transportation be addressed in the EIS: Assessment of whether the money Harney County would receive from the project would be sufficient to offset the cost to repair County roads potentially damaged by heavy equipment during construction. Potential environmental effects of construction and maintenance of access roads and the passage of construction and maintenance vehicles. Inventory of existing road networks and evaluation of the potential change in road miles and density due to the project. 3.14-1 NORTH STEENS TRANSMISSION LINE EIS ADMINISTRATIVE DRAFT JUNE 2010 3.14.2 Affected Environment For the purposes of this analysis, the Project Area was defined to include the area within the 150-foot wide transmission line ROW and all areas affected by the construction and operation of access roads, interconnection stations, substations, turbine towers, power collection systems, and other permanent and temporary project features, including temporary laydown areas and tensioning sites. However, the Project Area is located in a broader geographic region that is served by a network of state highways, county roads, private roads, and BLM and USFWS service roads. Each component of the regional transportation network is described below. 3.14.2.1 State Highways The state highway system forms the primary roadway network within the Project Area (Figure 3.14-1). In Harney County, the state highway system serves statewide, regional, and local traffic demands. The main routes in Harney County include US Highway 20 (Central Oregon Highway) and US Highway 395 (John Day-Burns and Lakeview-Burns Highways). US Highway 395 runs north-south connecting Lakeview (Lake County) with John Day (Grant County). Oregon State Highway 78 (Steens Highway) begins in Burns and continues southeast to US Highway 95 in Malheur County. Oregon State Highway 205 (Frenchglen Highway) begins outside of Burns and continues about 20 mile south of Frenchglen where it transitions to a County road (Catlow Valley Road) that continues south to the Nevada border. US Highway 20 Highway 20 is the main east-west highway through central Oregon and is designated a highway of statewide importance. It begins in Newport, on the Oregon coast and continues through the cities of Corvallis, Albany, Lebanon, Bend, Burns, and Nyssa before continuing into Idaho. Throughout Harney County, Highway 20 is primarily a two-lane roadway with a speed limit of 55 mph, except in the cities of Burns and Hines where the roadway varies between two and five lanes and the speed varies between 25 and 45 mph. The highway has three westbound and three eastbound passing lanes in the county. Roadway shoulders on both sides of the highway are typically four to six feet wide and partially paved; however, some sections of the highway have shoulders in excess of six feet in width. Pavement conditions on Highway 20 range from “fair” for the segment between Hines and Riley, to “poor” and “very poor” for segments west of Riley (note: ODOT maps may not have been updated to reflect paving conducted in 2009) (ODOT 2008a). Traffic operations along the rural highway sections of Highway 20 are characterized by relatively free flow conditions with some stops at signalized intersections within the community of Burns. In 2008, average annual daily traffic (AADT) volumes for all vehicles along Highway 20 were approximately 1,400 AADT west of Riley and approximately 1,700 AADT east of Riley. The section of Highway 20 that passes through Burns and Hines carried the greatest volumes of traffic in Harney County with volumes as high as 7,600 AADT in Burns. East of the junction with Highway 395, traffic levels declined to 1,400 AADT and to 1,100 AADT at the Harney-Malheur County Line. (ODOT 2008b) In 2008, the accident rates (i.e. crashes per million vehicle miles) for the rural segments of Highway 20 in Harney County west of Burns ranged from 0.56 to 0.62 and were about the same as the 0.57 statewide average for highways in rural Oregon. The accident rates for segments of Highway 20 east of Hines ranged from 0.50 to 0.60. The accident rates for the urban segments of Highway 20 through Burns and Hines ranged from .62 to 2.74. The 2.74 rate reflects the 10 crashes that occurred on the 1.4 mile segment between the western city limits of Burns and the junction at Highway 78. This rate was substantially higher than the 1.09 statewide average for highways in rural cities (ODOT 2008c). 3.14-2 SECTION 3 AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT, ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES, AND MITIGATION Figure 3.14-1 State highway system forms the primary roadway network within the Project Area. 3.14-3 NORTH STEENS TRANSMISSION LINE EIS ADMINISTRATIVE DRAFT JUNE 2010 US Highway 395 Highway 395 runs north-south through eastern Oregon from California to Washington, and north and south of its junctions with Highway 20 is designated a highway of statewide importance. The highway is a two-lane roadway with a speed limit of 55 mph. Roadway shoulders on both sides of the highway are typically four to six feet wide and partially paved. Pavement conditions on Highway 395 between Highway 20 and Alkali Lake are rated “fair” and “poor” from Alkali Lake to the county line (ODOT 2008a). Traffic operations along the rural highway sections of Highway 395 are characterized by a relatively free flow of traffic with some stops at signalized or stop sign controlled intersections. Traffic volumes on Highway 395 in 2008 were 270 AADT at the Lake-Harney County Line and 470 AADT south of the Highway 20 junction. North of Highway 20, traffic volumes were 490 AADT and declined to 310 AADT at the Harney-Grant County Line (ODOT 2008b). In 2008, the only recorded accident rate for the rural segment of Highway 395 in Harney County south of Highway 20 was 2.42 (two crashes) on the segment of the highway between the Harney County line and the Malheur National Forest. This accident rate was substantially higher than the 0.57 statewide average for highways in rural Oregon. The accident rates for segments of Highway 395 north of Highway 20 ranged from 0.54 to 0.97 (ODOT 2008c). State Highway 78 Highway 78 is a highway of regional importance. Beginning within the Burns city limits, it extends southeast through Lawen, Crane, and Princeton, and continues across the Harney/Malheur County line. It is a two-lane roadway with a speed limit of 55 mph, except within the Burns city limits where the speed varies between 25 and 40 mph. The route is comprised of numerous curves and moderate grade changes resulting in localized speed reductions ranging from 35 to 45 mph. Extended segments of roadway shoulders on both sides of the highway vary in width from two to four and four to six feet and are typically partially paved. A few short shoulder segments are less than two feet wide. Pavement ratings on Highway 78 range from “good” to “very good” between Hines and the Malheur County line (ODOT 2008a). Traffic operations of mainstream traffic along the rural highway sections of Highway 78 are characterized by a relatively free flow of traffic. Traffic volumes on Highway 78 in 2008 were highest in Burns, east of the Highway 20 junction, where traffic volumes were 3,400 AADT. At Airport Road traffic volumes declined to 720 AADT, 500 AADT at Lawen, and 330 AADT at Lave Beds Road. Volumes declined to 230 AADT at the Harney/Malheur County line (ODOT 2008b). In 2008, accident rates for the rural segments of Highway 78 in Harney County between Burns and the county line ranged from 0.48 to 2.14, the later rate being substantially higher than the statewide average for highways in rural Oregon (0.57). The highest accident rate (four crashes) was recorded on the 23-mile segment of Highway 78 between Princeton and the Malheur County line (ODOT 2008c).

  • Coyote Lake Lahontan Cutthroat Trout
    Oregon Native Fish Status Report – Volume II Coyote Lake Lahontan Cutthroat Trout Existing Populations Lahontan cutthroat trout populations in the Coyote Lakes basin are remnant of a larger population inhabiting pluvial Lake Lahontan during the Pleistocene era. Hydrologic access routes of founding cutthroat trout from Lake Lahontan basin into the Coyote Lakes basin have yet to be described (Coffin and Cowan 1995). The Coyote Lake Lahontan Cutthroat Trout SMU is comprised of five populations (Table 1). All populations express a resident life history strategy; however large individuals in the Willow and Whitehorse Complex populations suggest a migratory component may exist. Table 1. Populations, existence status, and life history of the Coyote Lake Lahontan Cutthroat Trout SMU. Exist Population Description Life History Yes Willow Willow Creek and tributaries. Resident / Migratory Yes Whitehorse Complex Whitehorse and Little Whitehorse Creeks, and Resident / Migratory tributaries. Yes Doolittle Doolittle Creek above barrier. Resident Yes Cottonwood Cottonwood Creek above barrier. Resident Yes Antelope Antelope Creek. Resident Lahontan cutthroat trout from Willow and Whitehorse creeks were transplanted into Cottonwood Creek in 1971 and 1980, and into Antelope Creek in 1972 (Hanson et al. 1993). Whether Lahontan cutthroat trout were present in these creeks prior to stocking activities is disputed (Behnke 1992, Hanson et al. 1993, Coffin and Cowan 1995, K. Jones, ODFW Research Biologist, Corvallis, OR personal communication). For the purpose of this review these populations are considered native. Lahontan cutthroat trout were also transplanted into Fifteenmile Creek above a natural barrier (Hanson et al. 1993), but they did not establish a self- sustaining population (ODFW Aquatic Inventory Project, unpublished data).

The report in­ dicated the orevice to be of great length and depth. This was confirmed by the writer on the occasion of a hurried visit to the area May 7th. A more extended examination was made on May 21st and the following paragraphs summarize the observations made at that time. The crevice is looated about a mile southeast of the Miller ranch and extends for a paced distance of somewhat in exoess of 2 miles along a general northeast course. These relationships are indicated on the accompanying sketch. The area traversed represents valley bottom land which is essentially flat. This is made up of clays and silts with occasional interbedded lenses of sands and fine gravels.

  • Conservation Plan for the Closed Lakes Basin
    OREGON CLOSED LAKES BASIN WETLAND CONSERVATION PLAN Report to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Esther Lev, John Bauer, John A. Christy The Wetlands Conservancy and Institute for Natural Resources, Portland State University June 2012 1 Executive summary This landscape-scale conservation plan focuses on the Guano, Harney, and Warner sub-basins in Harney and Lake Counties. About 493,170 acres of wetlands (excluding streams) occur in the study area, 55% of which are in public ownership. Flood irrigation occurs on about 140,800 acres, and most floodplain areas have extensive networks of irrigation infrastructure. Historically, wetlands expanded and contracted with the region's highly variable precipitation, and both hydrology and vegetation were in a continual state of flux between and within years. Wetland boundaries were ephemeral and moving targets. Today, despite human alterations in flow patterns and timing, wetlands still expand and contract with climatic extremes, and conditions may vary greatly from one year to the next. Large areas mapped as upland in 1876-1880 are now perennially, seasonally, or irregularly flooded because of irrigation regimes. The configuration of historical wetlands may approximate one or more predicted future climate scenarios, where lack of water later in the season may cause some wetlands created by irrigation to revert to drier vegetation types. Climate change projections indicate that runoff will attenuate earlier than it does today, indicating a need for enhanced upstream water storage capacity. In addition to ongoing efforts to improve stream condition in the basin, we recommend (1) restoring natural hydroperiods where feasible, (2) flexibility in irrigation, grazing, and haying schedules to improve synchronization with annual variations in water quantity, duration and timing of runoff, and (3) developing state and transition models and water balance models to better inform management decisions.

  • A Hard Country to Settle
    A Hard Country to Settle By Jeff LaLande Lacking the rich gold or other precious-metal deposits of neighboring areas, southeastern Oregon’s development took a slower course. A few hardy settlers had begun grazing cattle herds in the region’s natural pasture bottomlands by the mid to late 1860s, developing their ranching operations near permanent watercourses. Southeastern Oregon was largely settled by two separate streams of cattlemen, from Oregon and California. Stockmen from southwestern Oregon pushed the cattle frontier to the east, most of them driving their herds into what is now western Lake County and southeastern Deschutes County. Others came from California’s Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys and across northwest Nevada into present-day Harney and Malheur Counties, bringing immense herds of cattle with them. Some established huge ranches that took on the character of feudal fiefdoms. Then, as now, control of water and the land adjacent to it was the key to survival. In some parts of southeastern Oregon, honest use of the homestead laws provided the legal means for desirable land to come into private ownership. Elsewhere, however, shady government land disposal deals (such as those that occurred in Warner Valley) as well as the outright abuse of homestead laws (such as the use of dummy homestead claims by ranch employees) brought thousands of acres of bottomland into the hands of wealthy entrepreneurs. By 1880, merchants and others willing to gamble on the prospects of the new country had founded a few small but important towns in the High Desert. A significant number of southeastern Oregon’s early stockmen, particularly those who settled in Lake County in the 1870s, came from the older ranching country of the Rogue River Valley, around Jacksonville and Ashland.

Smith/Dissertation Advisor December 2017 © by Anna Jeanne Camp All Rights Reserved THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the dissertation prepared under our supervision by ANNA JEANNE CAMP Entitled Catlow Twine Basketry Through Time And Space: Exploring Shifting Cultural Boundaries Through Prehistoric And Ethnographic Basketry Technology In The Northwestern Great Basin be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Geoffrey M. Smith, Advisor Pat Barker , Committee Member Eugene M. Hattori, Committee Member Gary Haynes, Committee Member Donica H. Mensing, Graduate School Representative David W. Zeh, Ph. D., Dean, Graduate School December, 2017 i Abstract In this dissertation, I focus on Catlow Twine basketry and address several questions about connections between prehistoric and ethnographic groups in the Great Basin and how and when prehistoric populations moved across the landscape. My results suggest that: (1) diagnostic basketry types in the northwestern Great Basin can be used to track different ethnolinguistic groups through time and space; (2) continuity in technological attributes of Catlow Twine basketry suggests an early and widespread occupation of Penutian speaking groups in the northwestern Great Basin; and (3) the technological relationship between Catlow Twine and ethnographic Klamath-Modoc basketry reflects continuity in basket making traditions that was severely disrupted by contact with Euro-American settlers and the sale of Native American basketry during the Arts and Crafts Period (1880-1920).
