Title:	Longley Meadows Fish Habitat Enhancement Project
Description:	BPA and the Forest Service are considering a proposal to restore aquatic habitat on a 1.4-mile stretch of the Grande Ronde River to benefit Endangered Species Act (ESA)-listed spring Chinook salmon, summer steelhead, and bull trout. Approximately 1.0 miles of the project would be implemented on National Forest System Lands, 0.4 miles on State and private lands. This is the second phase of restoration work in a reach of the Grande Ronde River which was disconnected from its floodplain when the Grande Ronde River Road (Highway 244) and the railroad grade were constructed. BPA is considering whether to fund the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation to implement this proposal and the Forest Service is deciding whether to issue a special use permit. Under Forest Service requirements, as a project or activity implementing the land management plan not authorized under the Healthy Forest Act, this project is subject to subparts A and B of the project level pre-decisional administrative review process as described in 36 Code of Federal Regulations 218.
