Contract Description:
The John Day Native Plants Nursery Program started in 2004 under the John Day Watershed Restoration Project (1998-018-00; aka 2007-397-00). In 2011, the nursery program was moved under the Forrest Conservation Area Project (2001-041-01) because of county land zoning and the project's ability to generate revenue.  This contract is now (as of 4.1.18) under the merged project -Upper John Day Conservation Lands Program.  This contract will fund work to propagate, grow, and out-plant roughly 15,000 plants for the Tribes' BPA-funded projects including the Forrest Conservation Area, the Oxbow Conservation Area, and the John Day Watershed Restoration Project. The nursery will also assist with growing plants for partners including federal and state agencies where project goals seek to enhance anadromous fish habitat. Plants produced under this contract may be planted at conservation project sites throughout the John Day River Basin that aim to protect, manage, and enhance habitat that support culturally significant fish populations.

This Contract funds two full-time staff and partially funds other staff as needed. This contract will fund operations and maintenance of the nursery program including utilities, supplies, office support, and travel/transportation. This contract shares some materials and support from the main Forrest Conservation Area operations and maintenance contract.

Projected propagation for 2018:
seedlings: 20,000-25,000
rooted cuttings: 5,000

Nursery Program Core Components:
Greenhouse: one 30'x72' structure with gravel floors, polycarbonate siding and ceiling, automated overhead boom irrigation, electricity, and propane heat. Greenhouse propagation capacity is between 20,000 and 30,000 depending on plant container size.

Coldframes: two 20'x48' structures for overwintering plants.

Outdoor Nursery (stoolbeds): 1.79 acres containing roughly 600 native plants. Current irrigation systems are drip and overhead sprinkler run on gas pumps. Anticipated 2018 vegetative-cutting harvest from the nursery stoolbeds is roughly 5,000 depending on project orders.

Outdoor Shade Areas: approximately 2000 square feet of outdoor shaded growing area.

Seed Lab: indoor laboratory space for cleaning, drying, and treating seed.

Walk-in Cooler: 6'x6' cooler for storing and stratifying seed.
