  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Oregon Fish Passage Barriers Abstract -- The Oregon Fish Passage Barrier Data Standard (OFPBDS) dataset contains barriers to fish passage in Oregon watercourses. Barriers include the following types of natural or artificial structures: bridges, cascades, culverts, dams, debris jams, fords, natural falls, tide gates, and weirs. The OFPBDS dataset does not include structures which are not associated with in-stream features (such as dikes, levees or berms). Barriers are structures which do, or potentially may, impede fish movement and migration. Barriers can be known to cause complete or partial blockage to fish passage, or they can be completely passable, or they may have an unknown passage status. This dataset complies with version 1.1 of the OFBPDS data standard. New optional attributes have been added to describe fish passage barrier feature modifications, to describe supplementary information (via a comments field) and also to linear reference the barrier features to the National Hydrography Dataset. The OFPBDS dataset now contains over 40,000 barrier features from 19 separate sources including: Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW), Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), Oregon Department of Water Resources (OWRD), Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF), Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board (OWEB), Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) US Bureau of Land Management (BLM), US Forest Service, Nez Perce Tribe, Benton SWCD, Washington county, Lower Columbia River Estuary Partnership and watershed councils representing the Rogue, Umpqua, Siuslaw, Santiam, Calapooia, Clackamas and Scapoose basins. The Data Steward obtained fish passage barrier data from multiple data originators between 2008 and 2015, collaborated with them to develop inclusion / exclusion criteria and dataset specific crosswalks for converting data from its original data structure to the structure of the OFPBDS. The data were then converted into the OFPBDS format and analyzed for duplication with existing OFPBDS barrier features. Where duplicates were identified, depending upon the scenario, one feature was either chosen over the other or in some cases attributes from different sources are combined. Source information is retained for each feature. The data were then loaded into the OFPBDS database. Barrier features were linear referenced (Framework Hydro only which is outside of the standard) and the corresponding optional attribute elements were populated. The data conversion, duplication reconciliation and linear referencing protocols are documented in the Oregon Fish Passage Barrier Data Management Plan. A separate dataset containing fish passage barrier features that have been completely removed or replaced (e.g. dam removals and culvert replacements) is published simultaneously with the OFPBDS dataset. The OFPBDS database is the most comprehensive compilation of fish passage barrier information in Oregon however, it does NOT represent a complete and current record of every fish passage barrier within the state. Efforts to address deficiencies in data currency, completeness and accuracy are ongoing and are often limited by lack of sufficient resources. Attributes (including key attributes such as fish passage status) are often unknown or incomplete. Consistency in attribution also varies among data originators. Field verification of barrier features and their attributes will be an important component to making this dataset current, comprehensive and accurate. Fish passage status is a key attribute. Many barrier features have an unknown passage status. For other features, the passage status may have changed since it was originally documented. Note that this metadata file is best viewed in ArcCatalog. Documentation for the OFPBDS can be found online at http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/EISPD/GEO/docs/bioscience/OregonFishPassageBarrierDataStandardv1dot1.pdf.

The goals of this program were discussed by Dalton (1998). Briefly, we examine migration timing and abundance of the various species by size and/or age class. In the Tillamook Bay watershed, the Tillamook County Performance Partnership (TCCP) and the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODFW) have provided funding for monitoring in the Little North Fork (LNF) Wilson and Little South Fork (LSF) Kilchis rivers. Data collected during the 2001 trapping season and an annual report are presented for juvenile salmonid out-migrant trapping on the LNF Wilson and LSF Kilchis rivers. Juvenile chinook salmon numbers had decreased greatly each year from 1998 to 2000 in both rivers, but in 2001 this trend was reversed. Data is presented as tables and figures within the report.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: 2000-2002, Effectiveness Monitoring for the Western Oregon Stream Restoration Program Abstract -- This report characterizes change in habitat conditions of restoration projects competed by Western Oregon Stream Restoration Program biologists. Typical restoration activities included the placement of large wood and/or boulders in stream channels, removal of culvert passage barriers, riparian planting, road decommissioning, and streamside fencing. Implementation occurred coast-wide and in the Willamette Valley, with an overall goal of enhancing aquatic habitat for salmonid species. This program works in cooperation with the Oregon Heritage Foundation, Oregon Department of Forestry, US Fish and Wildlife Service, US Forest Service, industrial and private landowners, and watershed councils. Projects that were implemented in 2000 and 2001 were monitored to assess baseline pre-treatment and one-year post-treatment conditions. Additionally, projects that were treated in 1995 were monitored in 1996 to assess one-year post-treatment conditions and in 2001 to assess six-year posttreatment conditions. The objectives of the monitoring program were to describe changes in channel morphology, channel unit composition, and structural complexity in the restoration project areas.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Salmon, Steelhead and Bull Trout (SSBT) Pre-cursor Layer for Western Oregon Abstract -- This dataset represents both a derivation and synthesis of seven Oregon Fish Habitat Distribution datasets (winter steelhead, summer steelhead, coho salmon, spring Chinook, fall Chinook, chum salmon and Bull Trout) into a single SSBT dataset to support forestry related water protection rules. Stream reaches were filtered to include only the currently accessible habitat for the aforementioned species within the four Oregon Dept. of Forestry georegions in western Oregon: Western Cascade, Interior, Coast Range and South Coast. Basis categories were generalized into the following categories: observation-based or opinion-based. Observation based records include those records with a basis of: "Documented Observation of Fish" or observations of fish made during a protocol based survey, "Undocumented Observation of Fish" or observations of fish made during a non-protocol based survey, "Documented Observation of Habitat" or observation of habitat during a protocol based survey, and "Downstream of Documented Observation of Fish". Opinion based records include only those records which have a "Concurrence of Professional Opinion" amongst multiple fisheries biologists. The Oregon Fish Habitat Distribution Data Standard includes descriptions of these basis categories as well as the rules required for implementing updates. Data were synthesized into this single GIS dataset by selecting the "highest" record basis present across all 7 datasets. If an observation based record occurred within any one of the seven datasets, it was retained. If no observation based records were present across all seven species, the record was identified as opinion based. These data include all ODF stream size classes and also all ownerships and will be processed further by the Oregon Dept. of Forestry to identify where SSBT stream reaches occur on small and medium streams and on private lands in Western Oregon. Original source data are referenced to the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD). In some rare cases, records for different species describing the same stream reach may be represented by different stream geometry due to mapping that referenced different versions of the NHD.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The Oregon Conservation Strategy, 2006 Abstract -- State and federal agencies, as well as other organizations, have developed and led many plans during the years to guide conservation of Oregon's fish and wildlife and their habitats. Most of these plans have focused on a particular species, area or natural resource. Although wildlife conservation often has been an implicit concern of these plans, many were developed primarily for other purposes. With the creation of this Oregon Conservation Strategy, Oregon has its first overarching state strategy for conserving fish and wildlife. The Conservation Strategy is an effort to use the best available science to create a broad vision and conceptual framework for long-term conservation of Oregon's native fish and wildlife, as well as various in­vertebrates and native plants. As a guide to conserving the species and habitats that have defined the nature of Oregon, this strategy can help ensure that Oregon's natural treasures are passed on to future generations. The Conservation Strategy emphasizes proactively conserving declining species and habitats to reduce the possibility of future federal or state listings. It is not a regulatory document, but instead presents issues and opportunities, and recommends voluntary actions that will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of conservation in Oregon. Healthy fish and wildlife populations require adequate habitat, which is provided in natural systems and, for many species, in landscapes managed for forestry, agriculture, range and urban uses. The goals of the Conservation Strategy are to maintain healthy fish and wildlife populations by maintaining and restoring functioning habitats, preventing declines of at-risk species, and reversing declines in these resources where possible. These goals fit well with ODFW's statutory obligation to protect and enhance Oregon's fish and wildlife and their habitats for use and enjoyment by present and future generations. However, this is not a management plan for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Instead, it is a broad strategy for all of Oregon, offering potential roles and opportunities for residents, agencies and organizations. It incorporates information and insights from a broad range of natural resources assessments and conservation plans, supple­mented by the professional expertise and practical experiences of a cross-section of Oregon's resource managers and conservation interests. It is designed to have a variety of applications both inside and outside of state government. Most important, perhaps, it establishes the basis for a common understanding of the challenges facing Oregon's fish and wildlife, and provides a shared set of priorities for addressing the state's conservation needs. The heart of the Conservation Strategy is a blueprint for voluntary action to address the long-term needs of Oregon's fish and wildlife. The future for many species will depend on landowners' and land managers' willingness to voluntarily take action on their own to protect and improve fish and wildlife habitat. The strategy outlined in this document considers fish and wildlife from a statewide perspective, establishing a broader context for decisions about the species and habitats in greatest need of conservation attention. It also recognizes that these issues vary in different regions, requiring conservation actions to be tailored to the unique needs of the fish, wildlife and human communities that coexist throughout Oregon. Much good work already is being done by private landowners. water-shed councils, conservation organizations and agencies like the many soil and water conservation districts. This strategy continues building on the solid foundation these groups have set for Oregon's conservation future. This document is called a strategy, not a plan, because its purpose is to help people make decisions more strategically about how they can invest time and resources in fish and wildlife conservation. To that end, the Conservation Strategy focuses on a suite of species and habitats, many of them closely linked, that are in greatest need of conservation attention. The strategy provides guidance on the types of actions most likely to benefit these species and habitats, and describes a variety of non-regulatory programs that can help landowners and land managers with implementation. For agencies and organizations working on a larger scale, the Conservation Strategy highlights specific geographic "Conservation Opportunity Areas" that provide good opportunities to address the conservation needs of high-priority habitats and species. These landscape-scale areas include both public and private ownership where targeted investments in conservation actions and incentives for private landowners are likely to generate the greatest long-term benefits for fish and wildlife. The expanding footprint of human development and 150 years of landscape alteration have left much of Oregon's fish and wildlife at varying degrees of risk. For example, the song of Oregon's state bird, the western meadowlark, is rarely heard in the Willamette Valley any more. A grassland bird still common in eastern Oregon, the meadowlark is not going to be a candidate for listing under the Endangered Species Act any time soon. But the state bird is in trouble across a significant portion of its historic range in Oregon. Like most of Oregon's wildlife, it retains a natural resilience and will respond to improved habitat conditions. However, the meadowlark needs some conservation attention. For the western meadowlark and dozens of other similarly vulnerable species including fish, amphibians, reptiles, mammals, invertebrates and plants, the Oregon Conservation Strategy offers hope for a more secure future.
