Description
Project 2001-021-00:
https://www.cbfish.org/Project.mvc/Display/2001-021-00
Wasco County Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) provides local leadership in implementation of several full-scale watershed enhancement projects focused on improving watershed health. Working in close partnership with Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) our teams strength is our ability to develop and implement scientifically sound, economically feasible resource management plans for private landowners.
This project to implement riparian buffer systems in the Mid-Columbia addresses high priority actions identified in the Fifteenmile Sub-basin Plan. It will dedicate 1.0 FTE to provide the technical planning support needed to implement at least 36 riparian buffer system contracts on approximately 872 acres covering an estimated 40 miles of anadromous fish streams as a 3-year goal. Buffer widths will be between 35 and 180 ft. on each side of the stream. Implementation will include prescribed plantings, fencing, and related practices. Actual implementation costs, lease payments, and maintenance costs will be borne by existing U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) programs: Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and Conservation Reserve Enhancement Programs (CREP). Leases will be for 10-15 year periods.
Ten to fifteen (10-15) CCRP/CREP agreements will be signed by landowners annually, committing desired property to CCRP/CREP rules, i.e. shrub/tree/grass planting, weed control, livestock exclusion. Wasco SWCD staff will track contracts to ensure a smooth process between landowners and partner agencies. This tracking entails monitoring the approval process on completed plans through SWCD, NRCS, and FSA County Committee sign-off and Farm Service Agency (FSA) contracting.
This program meets a critical need in Fifteenmile Watershed in particular where existing Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) riparian lease agreements are expiring. This project f

Work Statement Element 153601:
https://www.cbfish.org/WorkStatementElement.mvc/Summary/153601
Approximately 132.7 acres of riparian habitat will be restored through planting under all new conservation plans developed under this project. Streams on all new leased land contracts and install fence contracts will have some level of new riparian plantings. The planting efforts will be documented in the metrics as the efforts are completed. The location, layout and density of the buffer should complement natural features, and mimic natural riparian forests. Planting density will be site specific and determined by the CREP planner at the time of contract development. Planting prescriptions may include a mix of trees, shrubs and/or grasses. Some contract renewals will be planted for enhancement. Planting for renewals will be determined following site inspection and prior to renewal. All planting costs will be covered by FSA and OWEB.

Work Statement Element 153977:
https://www.cbfish.org/WorkStatementElement.mvc/Summary/153977
A CREP agreement will be renewed and signed resulting in continued riparian protections. BPA funding is utilized only to cover CREP technician time for conducting outreach, preparing the conservation plan, and providing technical assistance prior to and during implementation. Fencing installation and other management actions are by the FSA through a contract with the landowner. The landowner is responsible for all implementation.
A completed water survey form will be uploaded if water rights are associated with the CREP buffer.
This riparian protection project is located along 0.25 miles on the right bank of Buck Hollow Creek which is mapped as Essential Salmonid Habitat (ESH) (https://www.streamnet.org). Work Elements L-O are all related projects that are contiguous within one family but made up of different ownership's therefore different contracts are for the different segments of the stream.
The project reach is currently enrolled in CREP. Prior restoration activities include riparian fencing, livestock use exclusion, and riparian planting. This buffer contract is eligible to be renewed for an additional 15 years, resulting in continued riparian protections. The process includes assessment of the existing buffer status, updating the conservation plan and CREP agreement, and providing technical assistance to landowners. The landowner is responsible for all implementation activities.
Vegetation, especially trees, in the riparian buffer improve fish habitat by limiting how much solar radiation can reach the stream surface. As a result, stream water temperatures are lower, and they fluctuate less during the day compared to non-shaded portions of the stream. Trees also provide woody debris for the stream, an important component of fish habitat. Continuous riparian buffers provide the most cumulative benefit, thus it is important to reenroll as many properties into the CREP program as possible.
Contract renewals are important because they protect the prior investments made by BPA and partners. CREP contracts can span 10-15 years depending on landowner objectives. The majority of contracts are 15 year commitments and this CREP contract is expected to renew for an additional 15 years.

New CREP Agreement with Landowners, NRCS, SWCD & FSA (initiated in prior contract), Start of Reach
Additional Detail
Work Statement Element 153615:
https://www.cbfish.org/WorkStatementElement.mvc/Summary/153615
This work element (WE) continues the work initiated in the prior contract (82673 WE AC).
A new 15 year CREP agreement will be developed and signed resulting in new riparian fence exclosure funded through the FSA. BPA funding is utilized only to cover CREP technician time for conducting outreach, preparing the conservation plan, and providing technical assistance prior to and during implementation. Fencing installation and other management actions are funded by the FSA through a contract with the landowner. The landowner is responsible for all implementation.
New CREP projects have to meet certain criteria for FSA to enroll them, including degradation by agriculture use which may include farming practices within a healthy riparian buffer zone or livestock grazing. The CREP Technician will determine on the ground conditions and eligibility. Land with trees already established and functioning as a riparian buffer is not eligible for enrollment. All stream segments proposed for new enrollment will benefit from expanding and enhancing the riparian area and use exclusion (restrictions on agricultural farm use and grazing). All new enrollments will have some level of planting prescription to establish or enhance the buffer.
A completed water survey form will be uploaded if water rights are associated with the CREP buffer.
This riparian protection project is located along 0.65 miles of Eightmile Creek which is mapped as Essential Salmonid Habitat (ESH) (https://www.streamnet.org). The project reach is currently in agricultural use. Implementation of this riparian protection project will address limiting factors such as high temperature and lack of woody debris within the reach through establishment of riparian vegetation to provide shade and future recruitment of large wood. Future restoration actions include exclosure fencing and tree and shrub establishment.

This riparian protection project is located along 5.23 miles of Big Pine Hollow and Brush Canyon which is mapped as Essential Salmonid Habitat (ESH) (https://www.streamnet.org). This project includes riparian buffers on both Big Pine Hollow and Brush Canyon, plus 15 small tributaries with small buffers on them. The metrics for this Work Element refer to the largest section of stream on the mainstem of Big Pine Hollow. The coordinates for Big Pine Hollow are: Start -120.636382, 45.038408 and End -120.686658, 45.018040. The buffer on Big Pine Hollow covers 3.28 miles of stream. The coordinates for Brush Canyon are: Start -120.636636, 45.000000 and End -120.63435, 45.02526. The buffer on Brush Canyon covers 1.95 miles of stream.
The project reach is currently enrolled in CREP. Prior restoration activities include riparian fencing, livestock use exclusion, and riparian planting. This buffer contract is eligible to be renewed for an additional 15 years, resulting in continued riparian protections. The process includes assessment of the existing buffer status, updating the conservation plan and CREP agreement, and providing technical assistance to landowners. The landowner is responsible for all implementation activities.
Vegetation, especially trees, in the riparian buffer improve fish habitat by limiting how much solar radiation can reach the stream surface. As a result, stream water temperatures are lower, and they fluctuate less during the day compared to non-shaded portions of the stream. Trees also provide woody debris for the stream, an important component of fish habitat. Continuous riparian buffers provide the most cumulative benefit, thus it is important to reenroll as many properties into the CREP program as possible.
Contract renewals are important because they protect the prior investments made by BPA and partners. CREP contracts can span 10-15 years depending on landowner objectives. The majority of contracts are 15 year commitments and this CREP contract is expected to renew for an additional 15 years.
