Contract Description:
The primary focus of the Columbia Basin Water Transactions Program (CBWTP) is to fund water transactions that restore streamflow on ecologically-significant Columbia Basin tributaries within the Okanogan, Methow, and Wenatchee subbasins.  The CBWTP is administered through a cooperative agreement between BPA and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF), with cooperation from the Colville Confederated Tribes.  

Subbasin plans and other habitat assessments throughout the Columbia Basin cite inadequate streamflows as a key factor limiting the productivity of both anadromous and resident fish species.  Water transactions provide an effective and appropriate response to this key limiting factor.  Restored streamflow benefit multiple fish species, particularly Chinook salmon, Steelhead and Bull trout.  

The CBWTP works throughqualified local entities (QLEs).  The QLEs include state agencies and nonprofit organizations.  These QLEs receive funds to implement, process and/or monitor water transactions in multiple priority watersheds throughout the Columbia Basin.  

CBWTP Background:
Since 2002, over 12 million acre feet has been dedicated instream through transactions. These transactions have included a number of innovative methods, including split-season leases, source switches, permanent purchases and water produced through significant capital investments in irrigation efficiency projects. The term of these deals has varied from short-term to permanent.
