| HARNEY BASIN GROUNDWATER MARKETING DEVELOPMENT EVALUATION | Oregon (Bureau of Reclamation federal awards) | COUNTY OF HARNEY | $50K | — |
| THE CITY OF KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SOUTH SUBURBAN SANITATION DISTRICT, WILL DEVELOP A STRATEGY TO INCREASE THE SUPPLY AND QUALITY OF RECYCLED WATER TO CONSERVE THE CITYS POTABLE WATER SUPPLIES AND IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF DISCHARGES FROM THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT TO THE KLAMATH RIVER. CURRENTLY, THE CITY DOES NOT RECYCLE ENOUGH WATER FROM THEIR WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT TO MEET POWER PLANT COOLING TOWER REQUIREMENTS, AND IS LOOKING FOR OPTIONS TO IMPROVE TREATMENT LEVELS. WORKING TOGETHER, THE CITY AND THE DISTRICT WILL DEVELOP A PLAN FOR JOINT OPERATIONS OF THE CITY S SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT AND THE DISTRICT S LAGOON TREATMENT FACILITY TO INCREASE RECYCLED WATER PRODUCTION AND ELIMINATE THE USE OF POTABLE WATER AT THE COOLING TOWER, CONSERVING THE CITYS GROUNDWATER RESOURCE FOR DOMESTIC NEEDS. THEY WILL FURTHER COLLABORATE TO DECREASE THE COST OF UPGRADES NEEDED TO IMPROVE THE WATER QUALITY OF DISCHARGES FROM THE WASTEWATER PLANT. THE STUDY WILL INCLUDE OUTREACH AND PARTNERSHIP BUILDING, TECHNICAL ANALYSES TO IDENTIFY THE FACILITIES NEEDED, AND DEVELOPMENT OF JOINT OPERATING REQUIREMENTS AND A FRAMEWORK FOR AN INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT. THE WATER STRATEGY SUPPORTS THE GOALS OF THE U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE S 2023 KLAMATH BASIN INTEGRATED FISHERIES RESTORATION AND MONITORING PLAN. | Oregon (Bureau of Reclamation federal awards) | CITY OF KLAMATH FALLS | $268K | — |
| KLAMATH PROJECT GROUNDWATER MONITORING AND DATA ANALYSES | Oregon (Bureau of Reclamation federal awards) | DEPARTMENT OF WATER RESOURCES OREGON | $750K | — |
| PROJECT WILL EXAMINE THE INFLUENCE OF WHOLE VALLEY-FLOOR RESTORATION (I.E., RESTORATION TO A STAGE-0 CONDITION) ON LATE SUMMER BASEFLOWS IN MEADOW CREEK USING TWO COMPLEMENTARY APPROACHES.FIRST, THE PROJECT WILL EXPLORE THE POTENTIAL MECHANISMS INFLUENCING THE WATER BUDGET LINKING A SURFACE FLOW MODEL (HEC-RAS-2D) WITH A GROUNDWATER FLOW MODEL (FLOPY) TO SIMULATE A VARIETY OF PRE- AND POST-RESTORATION CONDITIONS. INITIAL SIMULATIONS WILL HELP US DESIGN THE NETWORK OF FIELD MONITORING WELLS. FOLLOWING INSTRUMENTATION, DATA COLLECTED FROM THE WELL NETWORK WILL BE USED TO IMPROVE MODEL PARAMETERIZATION AND SIMULATION OF OBSERVED CHANGES IN GROUNDWATER LEVELS AND CHANGES IN STREAM DISCHARGE WILL BE USED TO CONFIRM MODEL RESULTS (ORESKES, ET AL., 1994).SECONDLY, THE PROJECT WILL USE A BEFORE-AFTER CONTROL-IMPACT (BACI) DESIGN TO COMPARE REACH-SCALE WATER BUDGETS FOR THE RESTORED REACH, BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER THE RESTORATION. BRIEFLY, NEW STREAM GAGES WILL BE LOCATED ABOVE AND BELOW THE RESTORATION PROJECT TO OBSERVE CHANGES IN STREAMFLOW, SOIL MOISTURE SENSORS AND REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES WILL BE USED TO ESTIMATE WATER USED BY VEGETATION, AND WELLS WILL BE INSTALLED TO MONITOR CHANGES IN GROUNDWATER STORAGE AND LATE-SUMMER DRAWDOWN THAT MIGHT AUGMENT LATE SUMMER STREAM FLOWS. CRITICALLY, INCREASES IN THE POST-RESTORATION STREAM DISCHARGE, RELATIVE TO THE PRE-RESTORATION CONDITIONS, MUST BE SUPPLIED BY GROUNDWATER LOST FROM STORAGE ON THE RESTORED FLOODPLAINS (AFTER ACCOUNTING FOR ET LOSSES) FOR THE CHANGE IN DISCHARGE TO BE ATTRIBUTED TO THE STAGE-0 RESTORATION. THUS, CLOSURE OF THE WATER BUDGET WILL PROVIDE DEFINITIVE PROOF OF THE ROLE OF STAGE-0 RESTORATION ON LATE-SUMMER DISCHARGES. | Oregon (Bureau of Reclamation federal awards) | OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY | $117K | — |
| AWARD PURPOSE: OWYHEE STATE PARK NEEDS TO REPLACE THE EXISTING FISH GRINDER AND CLEANING STATION WITH A HIGHER CAPACITY GRINDER THAT CAN HANDLE A HIGHER VOLUME OF FISH. THE CURRENT FACILITY IS INOPERABLE AND UNABLE TO BE REPAIRED. IN ADDITION, SITE UPGRADES NEED TO BE MADE TO BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH DEQ ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITTING REGULATIONS REGARDING DISPOSAL OF WASTE AND WATER QUALITY. THE END GOAL IS TO HAVE AN OPERATIONAL FISH CLEANING STATION THAT IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS, PROVIDING THE PUBLIC AN ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE PLACE TO WASH AND DISPOSE OF FISH WASTE, THEREBY PROTECTING THE PARKS RESOURCES.ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED: THE RECIPIENT WILL REPLACE THE EXISTING FISH CLEANING STATION AND BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH DEQ ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITTING REGULATION REGARDING DISPOSAL OF WASTE AND WATER QUALITY.EXPECTED DELIVERABLES OR OUTCOMES: TO PROVIDE AN OPERATIONAL FISH CLEANING STATION THAT IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS AND SAFE PLACE TO WASH AND DISPOSE OF FISH WASTE.INTENDED BENEFICIARIES: THIS PROJECT PROVIDES A BENEFIT TO PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY BY ASSISTING THE MANAGING PARTNER WITH A MAJOR REPAIR REPLACEMENT OF A FACILITY AND MAKING SITE UPDATES TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITYS (DEQ) GUIDELINES. HAVING A DEDICATED SITE FOR FISH CLEANING HELPS PROTECT THE NATURAL AND WATER RESOURCES FROM CONTAMINATION BY UNMANAGED OR IMPROPERLY DISPOSED FISH WASTE.

| DESCHUTES SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT, LOCATED IN CENTRAL OREGON, WILL ESTABLISH THE INDIAN FORD WATERSHED GROUP TO PROMOTE THE SUSTAINABLE USE OF WATER RESOURCES WITHIN THE INDIAN FORD WATERSHED. INDIAN FORD CREEK HISTORICALLY PROVIDED CRITICAL HABITAT FOR STEELHEAD, BEAVERS, AND OTHER WILDLIFE. WILDLIFE IS EXPERIENCING THE IMPACTS OF THE CHANGING SYSTEM THROUGH AN INCREASE IN WATER TEMPERATURES, DIMINISHED RIPARIAN VEGETATION AND SHADE, INVASION OF NOXIOUS WEEDS, REDUCED WATER QUALITY, AND DIMINISHED SUMMER FLOWS. THE PROJECT WILL DEVELOP A NEW WATERSHED GROUP AND SPECIFIC RESTORATION PLANNING ACTIVITIES ALONG THE CREEK. THIS PROJECT WILL ALSO CONDUCT A BASELINE ASSESSMENT FOR THE STREAM WITHIN U.S. FOREST SERVICE LAND AND DEVELOP A GEOGRAPHIC AND BIOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT THAT WILL INCLUDE RESTORATION RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FUTURE IMPLEMENTATION FOR PRIVATE LAND ALONG INDIAN FORD CREEK. THE WATERSHED GROUP WILL COLLABORATE WITH THE U.S. FOREST SERVICE, DESCHUTES LAND TRUST, BLACK BUTTE RANCH, AND PRIVATE LANDOWNERS. | Oregon (Bureau of Reclamation federal awards) | DESCHUTES SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT | $57K | — |
