Section 2. Past accomplishments
| Year | Accomplishment |
|---|---|
| 1997 | Completed designs for adult collection and juvenile acclimation facilities at Catherine Creek and upper Grande Ronde. |
| Lostine preliminary planning, design and environmental assessment (NEPA) documents completed for the adult trapping and juvenile acclimation/release facilities. | |
| 1998 | Completed long-term management plan for Grande Ronde endemic spring chinook program and applied for modification of ESA Section 10 Permit No. 1011. Plan was developed cooperatively with NPT, CTUIR, and USFWS. |
| Comanagers operated temporary adult collection facilities in upper Grande Ronde River, Catherine Creek, and Lostine River. Too few adult chinook were collected for spawning. Adults were returned to spawn naturally. | |
| Reviewed drafts of master plan documents prepared by or for NPT and provided comments to NPT. Wrote a captive broodstock alternative and submitted it to NPT for inclusion in Imnaha master plan. | |
| 1999 | Completed Lookingglass Hatchery Review considering limitations to meet GRESCSP goals |
| Reviewed drafts of master plan documents prepared by or for NPT and provided comments to NPT. Wrote a captive broodstock alternative and submitted it to NPT for inclusion in Imnaha master plan. | |
| Completed a report on infectious disease epidemiology at Lookingglass Hatchery. | |
| 2000 | Reviewed drafts of master plan documents prepared by or for NPT and provided comments to NPT. NPT submitted Master Plan for the Imnaha and Lostine to Power Planning Council. Started Step 2 process. |
| 2001 | Reviewed draft documents of spring chinook propagation facilities in NE Oregon prepared by Mongomery Watson and NPT for the Power Planning Council Step 2 submittal process. |
Section 3. Relationships to other projects
| Project ID | Title | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 199800702 | Grande Ronde Supplementation: Lostine River O&M and M&E | Operate adult trapping and juvenile acclimation facilities and conduct monitoring and evaluation in the Lostine River to implement the Lostine component of the Grande Ronde Basin Endemic Spring Chinook Supplementation Program (GRESCSP). |
| 199800703 | Facility O&M And Program M&E For Grande Ronde Anadromous Salmonids | Operate adult trapping and juvenile acclimation facilities and conduct monitoring and evaluation in the upper Grande Ronde and Catherine Creek for spring chinook and steelhead and to implement the UGR and CC component of the GRESCSP. |
| 199801001 | Grande Ronde Basin Spring Chinook Captive Broodstock Program | Implement captive broodstock programs and associated research, monitoring, evaluation, and fish health for spring chinook salmon populations in Catherine Creek, upper Grande Ronde and Lostine rivers, to conserve genetic diversity and assist in recovery. |
| 199801006 | Captive Broodstock Artificial Propagation | Implements the captive broodstock project through the collection of juvenile salmon from the wild and maintaining them in captivity. The founding generation is spawned at maturity and the resulting F1 generation is released back to the parental stream. |
| 199606700 | Manchester Spring Chinook Broodstock Project | Rear Snake River spring/summer chinook salmon captive broodstocks from Idaho's Salmon River sub-basin and Oregon's Grande Ronde River sub-basin. Provide pre-spawning adults, eyed eggs, and juveniles to aid recovery of these ESA-listed stocks. |
| 198805301 | Northeast Oregon Hatchery Master Plan, NPT | Plan and develop conservation production facilities in the Imnaha and Grande Ronde rivers necessary to implement salmon recovery programs for native, ESA listed salmon. |
| 199703800 | Preserve Salmonid Gametes | Preserve male salmonid gametes through cryogenic techniques in order to maintain genetic diversity in populations with low levels of abundance and at high risk of localized extinction. |
| 199202604 | Early Life History of Spring Chinook Salmon in the Grande Ronde Basin. | We utilize migration timing information from this project to determine when to collect juveniles for captive broodstock. Life history information will also be used to access the success of supplementation programs and smolt migration success. |
| 0 | Lower Snake River Compensation Plan | The captive broodstock project is providing embryos for use in the LSRCP supplementation program. Production and release of captive brood progeny is funded under the LSRCP. |
| 199202601 | Grande Ronde Model Watershed Project | Selected in 1992 by the NPPC as the model watershed project in Oregon (includes the Grande Ronde and Imnaha subbasins). The Program provides coordination of efforts in the Grande Ronde and Imnaha subbasins. |
| 198805305 | Spring Chinook Endemic Broodstock Implementation | This captive broodstock program is integrated with the Grande Ronde Endemic program and will utilize the adult collection facilities to monitor returns and survival of captive broodstock produced returns. |

Comment:
Response required. These proposals [198805305 and 199800704] provide for ODFW to work with co-managers to implement the Grande Ronde Endemic Spring Chinook Supplementation program. The activities are largely related to operating and maintenance expenses for program coordination, the safe transport of juveniles and brood adults from field sites to the Lookingglass Hatchery, and assistance to the Fish Health Pathologist (USFWS). Minimal funds are requested for M&E but the activities seem more involved than would be provided by the limited M&E budget ($20,973 in FY02). A very strong cost sharing budget is included in this proposal: $3 million per year from the LSRCP for Lookingglass and Irrigon hatcheries, M&E and fish health inspections, plus $70,000 for the ODFW District Biologist. The activities are well integrated with the associated proposals (#199800702 and #199800703) and captive brood program. A response is requested, however, concerning the activities to be included in M&E (Objective 4, section 9f). What will be undertaken and how are the tasks to be addressed with such a limited budged? Is this proposal only including staff time for participation?Comment:
M&E plan still in development (will be completed in the third step of the Three-Step process). This project is considered BASE by NMFS.Comment:

As noted in project #198805301, final monitoring plans will be developed as the Step 2 process proceeds.Comment:
Statement of Potential Biological Benefit to ESUBenefits are indirect. Support improvements in survival, abundance, and distribution by identifying key opportunities for implementing actions in the subbasin.
Comments
The preparation of the HGMP should occur and efficient, expeditious, integration of hatchery programs to meet resource needs would result.
