Description
Project 1990-044-00:
https://www.cbfish.org/Project.mvc/Display/1990-044-00
Enhance critical habitat to mitigate limiting factors for westslope cutthroat in 4 target watersheds in the Coeur dAlene subbasin. Complete monitoring of populations and physical habitat and promote coordination/participation among stakeholders.
Contract 76828 REL 16:
https://www.cbfish.org/Contract.mvc/Summary/76828 REL 16
The scope of work and budget presented in this document describe the activities associated with the Coeur dAlene Tribes resident fish enhancement project for the Coeur dAlene Subbasin corresponding to the contract period June 1, 2021 to May 31, 2022. The work elements for this project are related to planning and coordination, construction and implementation, research and monitoring, and project administration. Total contract value is $1,539,069.
A list of spatially explicit projects was developed to address process-based objectives for each of the highest priority subbasins in the Benewah and Lake creek watersheds to meet the Coeur dAlene Basin goal of restoring harvestable surpluses of naturally reproducing adfluvial adult cutthroat trout (Intermountain Province Subbasin Plan 2004; Firehammer et al. 2011). The prioritized subbasins encompass the distribution of adfluvial cutthroat within the target watersheds and the critical habitats used for spawning and early life stage rearing. The restoration actions included in this scope of work represent a sub set of the ranked projects from this list and were identified based on the results of watershed assessments and long-term monitoring data collected as part of this BPA funded project.

Additional Detail
Work Statement Element 159854:
https://www.cbfish.org/WorkStatementElement.mvc/Summary/159854
No Ground Disturbance is to occur under this Work Element. This Work Element is to exclude brook trout from channel habitat in the upper Benewah Creek watershed, and to remove brook trout from approximately 1.6 km of channel habitat in the lower Evans Creek watershed using backpack electro-shocking equipment. In the Benewah Creek watershed, prior surveys in the targeted area indicate that mainstem reaches above 12-mile bridge (i.e., river kilometer 19.8-21.85) likely serve as spawning habitat for brook trout, and that efforts inhibiting the accessibility of this reach should suppress reproductive success. A temporary fence weir will be installed in late summer at 12-mile bridge to prevent mature brook trout that are residing downstream in deep pool habitat from ascending upriver to access these spawning reaches. Another temporary fence weir will be installed in late summer at the mouth of Windfall Creek (Benewah Creek river kilometer 19.3) to prevent mature brook trout from ascending this tributary. This work constitutes the 17th consecutive year in which suppression efforts have been implemented in this watershed. In the Evans Creek watershed, population surveys conducted in 2012 and 2016, that were corroborated by a pilot removal effort conducted in 2017, revealed a very recent, incipient invasion in lower reaches that needs to be suppressed before brook trout become more firmly established and gain a stronghold in this watershed. Backpack electro-shocking during late summer will be used as the primary technique to remove fish. The results from 2019 suppression efforts indicated an upsurge in reproduction, necessitating additional tactics to inhibit spawning. Consequently, a fyke net will be deployed at the downstream end of the targeted reach to capture fish ascending from downriver reaches. This work in 2021 constitutes the 5th consecutive year in which suppression efforts will be conducted in this watershed.
