Contract Description:
This contract will work to improve stream flows and reduce fish passage barriers in the Walla Walla Basin for the migration and rearing of summer steelhead, spring Chinook salmon, and bull trout. Limited stream flows and fish passage barriers are two primary limiting factors for aquatic species in the Walla Walla Basin. Under this contract the Walla Walla Basin Watershed Council (WWBWC) will address several fish passage issues with the construction of the Lampson Habitat Side Channel Entrance Construction, development of final designs and permitting for two North Fork Walla Walla Push Up Dams alternatives, an alternatives assessment and preliminary designs for the Upper Couse Creek Fish Passage at Blue Mountain Stations issue, and the Upper Walla Walla River ground-based Habitat Assessment.

The WWBWC identified these projects through staff conversations with basin partners, working with property owners, and referring to fish recovery plans. WWBWC held a basin-wide meeting which included representatives from BPA, CTUIR, ODFW, WDFW, USFWS, NOAA, OWRD, local irrigation districts, and other interested parties to review identified projects. These projects were identified as priorities and selected for BPA funded implementation.

WWBWC and the partners mentioned above will begin adding their most current, summarized empirical biological and physical habitat data sets to a GIS platform, such as Arc GIS Online, to determine prioritiy areas and actions at the watershed level.  Areas that contain focal fish species and life stages will be the highest priority.  Specific habitat improvement actions will be prioritized based on their ability to meet the life stage specific needs of the fish species, such as holding, spawning, summer rearing, winter rearing, and juvenile emigration.

The FY 2021 contract will include a structured approach, based on the available empirical biological and physical habitat data, to collaboratively analyze the data to determine priority areas and actions.  This evidence based prioritization approach will be attached to the contract and modified over time as new data become available and as projects are implemented.
