S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (Service) Biological Opinion (Opinion) for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, National Marine Fisheries Service’s (NOAA’s) issuance of section 10(a)(1)(A) permits for the continued operation and maintenance of the Northeast Oregon and Southeast Washington Spring/Summer Chinook, Steelhead and Rainbow Trout Hatchery Programs funded by the Service’s Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP) Office and the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), and its effects on bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) and designated critical habitat in accordance with section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (Act) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. §§ 1531 et seq.). The three action agencies jointly prepared and submitted a Biological Assessment (Assessment), dated April 18, 2014; the request for formal consultation was received by our office on April 22, 2014. The Service requested additional information that was provided by LSRCP and BPA on May 13, 2014. The Service sent an email back to LSRCP and BPA initiating consultation on May 21, 2014. Additional information and clarifications regarding the proposed action and potential effects continued to be provided through April, 2016. This Opinion is based on information provided in the April 18, 2014 Assessment, the requested clarifications provided on May 13, 2014, an additional piece of the proposed action provided on April 12, 2016, Hatchery Genetic Management Plans for the 12 programs covered, correspondence with project staff at the BPA and the LSRCP office, and other sources of information. A complete record of this consultation is on file at the Service’s La Grande Field Office in La Grande, Oregon. CONSULTATION HISTORY The LSRCP Office initiated consultation on May 19, 1998 with the Service’s Snake River Basin Office for all LSRCP Programs under a programmatic Assessment. The Service issued an Opinion on Operation of the LSRCP Program (File # 1024.0000, 1-4- 99-F-2) on April 8, 1999. Work at BPA-funded facilities is conducted under Section 10 permits that have been issued to the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation (CTUIR) (permit TE844468-10) and the Columbia River Intertribal Fish Commission (permit TEOO1598-5). LSRCP requested the Service review a draft Assessment on May 6, 2013. The Service provided comments to the draft Assessment on July 30 and August 12, 2013. The Service, BPA, LSRCP, and National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA) had a conference call to discuss Service comments on the draft Assessment and combining BPA and LSRCP funded programs into a single Assessment on September 20, 2013. BPA and LSRCP requested a review of the combined draft Assessment on January 8, 2014. The Service provided comments to the January 8, 2014 draft Assessment on January 29, 2014. The Service, NOAA, BPA, and LSRCP had a conference call to discuss multiple hatchery consultations on February 11, 2014. Dr. Craig Busack 2 There was a follow-up meeting on March 21, 2014, in which the draft Assessment at that date was deemed by all parties to be complete. The Service received a request from NOAA for consultation on the project and final Assessment on April 22, 2014. The Service requested additional information that was provided by LSRCP and BPA on May 13, 2014. The Service sent an email back to NOAA (and LSRCP and BPA) initiating consultation on May 21, 2014. The Service sent a draft Opinion to NOAA, BPA, and LSRCP for review

  • Stand Density Conditions for Umatilla National Forest: a Range of Variation Analysis
    WHITE PAPER F14-SO-WP-SILV-50 Stand Density Conditions for Umatilla National Forest: A Range of Variation Analysis David C. Powell; Forest Silviculturist Supervisor’s Office; Pendleton, OR Initial Version: FEBRUARY 20131 Most Recent Revision: JUNE 2013 INTRODUCTION Umatilla National Forest adopted a program-of-work (POW) process in February 2013 involving three criteria: 1. Values at risk, including human infrastructure (Johnson 2013). 2. Subwatersheds where existing stand density exceeds a range of variation for stand density. 3. Unique habitats such as old-growth forests, aspen clones, riparian habitat conserva- tion areas, and meadows (Archuleta 2013). This white paper describes a process used to assess stand density conditions for Umatilla National Forest. A Forest-wide, stand-density assessment was completed to meet project planning needs associated with criterion #2 of a POW process. This assessment uses an analytical technique called the range of variation (RV), de- fined as a range of conditions likely to have occurred in the Blue Mountains prior to Euro-American settlement in mid-1800s. A white paper (WP Silv-3) provides concepts, principles, and methods relating to range of variation (Powell 2019) – that white paper provides more information about RV. Briefly, a stand-density assessment involved 4 steps: (1) compiling a dataset charac- terizing stand density conditions for Umatilla NF, (2) stratifying density data by biophysi- cal environment, (3) completing an RV analysis by using subwatersheds as landscape units, and (4) summarizing results while also accounting for land-use restrictions. 1 White papers are internal reports; they receive only limited review. Viewpoints expressed in this paper are those of the author – they may not represent positions of USDA Forest Service.

Recreational Located east of I-5, there are many opportunities for you to enjoy this area with relatively easy Opportunities access by several major highways. Starting up north: take a drive on the Mt. Baker Scenic Byway page 2 (State Route 542). This route starts in Bellingham, winds along the North Fork of the Nooksack River, and, from the town of Glacier, climbs 24 miles to an elevation of 5,100 feet at Artist Point in Heather Meadows. This destination is legendary for spectacular views of Mt. Baker, Mt. Shuksan and surrounding peaks. For other stunning vistas, follow the northern part of the Cascade Loop along the North Cascades Scenic Highway (State Route 20). A side trip up the Baker Lake Road, 16 miles east of Sedro-Woolley, Trip Planning leads into the Baker Lake Basin, which hosts campgrounds, water recreation and numerous trails. and Safety page 3 The 125-mile Skagit Wild and Scenic River System - made up of segments of the Skagit, Cascade, Sauk, and Suiattle Rivers - provides important wildlife habitat and recreation. The Skagit is home to one of the largest winter populations of bald eagles in the United States and provides spawning grounds for one-third of all salmon in Puget Sound. The North Cascades Scenic Highway travels through the gateway communities of Concrete, Baker Lake Rockport, and Marblemount before reaching and Mt.

    Bull Trout Final Critical Habitat Justification: Rationale for Why Habitat is Essential, and Documentation of Occupancy Chapter 16. Mid-Columbia Recovery Unit—Grande Ronde River Critical Habitat Unit 447 Bull Trout Final Critical Habitat Justification Chapter 16 U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service September 2010 Chapter 16. Grande Ronde River Critical Habitat Unit The Grande Ronde River CHU is essential to the conservation of bull trout because is supports strong bull trout populations and provides high-quality habitat to potentially expand bull trout distribution and is considered to be essential for bull trout recovery in the Mid-Columbia RU. The eleven populations in this CHU are spread over a large geographical area with multiple age classes, containing both resident and fluvial fish. This bull trout stronghold also has a prey base; connectivity with the Snake River; general distribution of bull trout throughout the habitat; and varying habitat conditions. But in several of the populations, including the Wenaha River, Lostine River, Lookingglass Creek, and Little Minam River populations, excellent habitat conditions exist; many streams and rivers are designated as Wild and Scenic Rivers and/or located within or near Wilderness areas. Two wilderness areas are designated within the Grande Ronde River basin. The Eagle Cap Wilderness is located in the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest, encompasses 146,272 (ha) (361,446 ac), and includes most of the Minam, upper Wallowa and Lostine river drainages as well as Bear Creek and Hurricane Creek and a small portion of Catherine Creek. Federal Wild and Scenic River status is designated for the Lostine and Minam Rivers and Oregon State Scenic Waterway status is designated to the Minam and Wallowa Rivers.
