Guide to Action Tables

The Action Agencies have developed a database for planning and reporting of BiOp 

implementation measures. This database was used to produce the tables included in this 

Appendix. The database is undergoing continual refinement and some errors may be apparent. 

The Action Agencies are working together to maintain and update this database.

The tables provide detailed information about the Action Agencies’ planned BiOp 

implementation projects. Each table shows a different grouping of the planned projects. To 

assist the reader, a sample of each Table is labeled below.

Table 3 includes five reports that provide cross-references between the Action Agency BiOp 

Project Id (a unique identifier generated by the database that is permanently assigned to each 

Action Agency project), NMFS and USFWS BiOp action numbers (assigned in the NMFS and 

USFWS BiOps), Provinces/Subbasins, and ESUs. Reports 1 through 4 are intended to be crossreferenced with the detailed Project summary information provided in Report 5. 

A brief description of each report is included below.

Report 1: Action Agency Projects for each NMFS BiOp Action

The report lists each Action Agency BiOp Project Id that is associated with a NMFS BiOp 

Action. A comprehensive description of each Project can be found in Report 5. 

Report 2: Action Agency Projects for each USFWS BiOp Action

The report lists each Action Agency BiOp Project Id that is associated with a USFWS BiOp

Action. A comprehensive description of each Project can be found in Report 5. 

Report 3: Action Agency Projects for each Province and Subbasin

The report lists each Action Agency BiOp Project Id that is associated with each subbasin within 

a Province. A comprehensive description of each Project can be found in Report 5. 

Report 4: Action Agency Projects for each ESU

The report lists each Action Agency BiOp Project Id that is associated with each ESU. A 

comprehensive description of each Project can be found in Report 5. 

Report 5: Action Agency Projects Summaries

In order by BiOp Project Id, this report lists the Action Agency project summaries. When used 

as a cross reference with Reports 1 to 4, the reader can glean more detailed project information 

about BiOp implementation than may be available in the narrative portion of the Plan.

Similar, based on budget submitted - Planning = 1) Complete Pataha Creek Model Watershed Plan (PCMWP). 2) Implement Pataha Creek MWPa) Set up program with 

individual landowners - See implementation. 3) Coordinate PCMWP with the public and others to inform them about the program - a) Newsletters/newspaper-magazine 

articles, as applicable, b) Sponsor tours/workshops/ conferences, conduct PCMWP meetings, provide information and education with students. 4) Work with WSU on 

monitoring water quality to compare no-till, 2 pass seeding, and conventional seeding methods - a) Coordinate data collection, b) Operate water sediment samplers and 

electronic thermographs, c) Collect soil erosion data. 5) Coordinate salmon habitat work - a) Meet with landowners, Technical Adviory Committees, and WDFW, b) attend 

training into keep up to date on new techniques and opportunities.Implementation = 6) No till seeding (0-33% soil distrurbance - drill used to plant seed and fertilize). 7) Direct 

seeding (34-66% soil disturbance - 2 pass method- fertilizer then plant). 8) Critical Area seeding - grass seeding onto productive, but highly erodable land. Must remain in grass 

for 10 years to reduce erosion. Land that does not meet CRP criteria, or patches that are too small to be enrolled. 9) Pasture Planting - reduce erosion, but can be grazed. 

Usually used close to riparian areas to reduce near-stream erosion. Required to be pasture for 10 years. Often mets CREP criteria, but farmer was not interested in signing up 

with CREP (under which use for grazing is not be allowed). 10) Terrace rebuilding - reduce erosion by retiering land. 11) Pipeline and spring development. 12) Write Annual

seeding (34-66% soil disturbance - 2 pass method- fertilizer then plant). 8) Critical Area seeding - grass seeding onto productive, but highly erodable land. Must remain in grass 

for 10 years to reduce erosion. Land that does not meet CRP criteria, or patches that are too small to be enrolled. 9) Pasture Planting - reduce erosion, but can be grazed. 

Usually used close to riparian areas to reduce near-stream erosion. Required to be pasture for 10 years. Often mets CREP criteria, but farmer was not interested in signing up 

with CREP (under which use for grazing is not be allowed). 10) Terrace rebuilding - reduce erosion by retiering land. 11) Pipeline and spring development. 12) Write Annual
