• 2008 National Research Council advice ⇒comprehensive, integrated basin-wide plan
• KBRA Fisheries Program included concepts for fisheries restoration and monitoring plans, but expired in 2015
• FWS/NMFS and others still need a science plan to guide highest priority ecosystem process, habitat & fish population restoration and monitoring actions
• The Integrated Fisheries Restoration and Monitoring Plan (IFRMP) complements Klamath and Oregon fisheries reintroduction implementation plan, KRRC Definite Plan, and other plans
What is This Project? (for new folks)

• When completed, a fully funded IFRMP will provide:– Prioritized and sequenced ecosystem process/habitat restoration
actions (and a methodology to iteratively update these priorities)– Status/trend & effectiveness monitoring to determine which
restoration actions over time provide greatest benefit– An adaptive management framework to learn & improve over time– Cost estimates for getting the work done
• USFWS contracted with the PSMFC, a neutral party, to oversee Plan development,
• And PSFMC contracted with to do the work.• Expected completion 2021 (subject to funding appropriations)

Summary of Key Changes• Major restructuring of the candidate restoration actions section away from a high-
level sub-regional scale to individual sub-basin scale.
• Remove “fisheries” (& hatchery) actions and focus on watershed inputs, ecological processes & habitat restoration actions
• Restructuring the indicator framework to:
– Use spatially-explicit core performance indicators (CPIs)
– Remove strict "triggers" and "decision rules" to structure restoration decisions, instead relying on suitability thresholds within a weight of evidence approach (to be refined in Phase 3)
• Simplification of the prioritization methodology and use of specific projects from sub-basin chapters. Emphasize sequencing.
• Identify an adaptive management approach to implement the plan
• Overall: streamline and boil down document (ideally to ~100 pages of text + key infographics, visuals). Move conceptual models and process related information to an appendix or supplemental volume (in Phase 3)

Benefits of re-structuring
• Sub-basin scale plan more practitioner friendly. Plan is more versatile at multiple scales.
• Will facilitate more natural/easy engagement with broader sub-regional working group members who have expertise in specific parts of the basin (vs. regional scale).
• Info-graphics packed with information on stressors, focal species, restoration actions, with geographic references. Easy & helpful for variety of audiences.

The Other Players
![Page 11: Klamath Basin Integrated Fisheries Restoration and ...kbifrm.psmfc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IFRMP-SRWG-Update-and-Call... · Caveat on Approach to Prioritization NOT IMPLEMENT](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041217/5e069066b984792d361493a9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Initial Restoration and Monitoring Priorities
![Page 12: Klamath Basin Integrated Fisheries Restoration and ...kbifrm.psmfc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IFRMP-SRWG-Update-and-Call... · Caveat on Approach to Prioritization NOT IMPLEMENT](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041217/5e069066b984792d361493a9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Process-Based Restoration• Bottom-up restoration by tier of watershed functional processes
instead of population benchmarks (e.g., Elwha)
![Page 13: Klamath Basin Integrated Fisheries Restoration and ...kbifrm.psmfc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IFRMP-SRWG-Update-and-Call... · Caveat on Approach to Prioritization NOT IMPLEMENT](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041217/5e069066b984792d361493a9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Still to be refined in next phase of work!
Core Performance Indicators (CPIs)
![Page 14: Klamath Basin Integrated Fisheries Restoration and ...kbifrm.psmfc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IFRMP-SRWG-Update-and-Call... · Caveat on Approach to Prioritization NOT IMPLEMENT](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041217/5e069066b984792d361493a9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
• For each indicator, suitability thresholds or benchmarks must be identified to help guide prioritization of restoration needs and progression through functional watershed tiers
Suitability Thresholds
![Page 15: Klamath Basin Integrated Fisheries Restoration and ...kbifrm.psmfc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IFRMP-SRWG-Update-and-Call... · Caveat on Approach to Prioritization NOT IMPLEMENT](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041217/5e069066b984792d361493a9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Restoration & Monitoring Phasing, Sequencing• Scale specific CPIs and their thresholds can also be used
for planning restoration priorities over time, across spatial scales.
![Page 16: Klamath Basin Integrated Fisheries Restoration and ...kbifrm.psmfc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/IFRMP-SRWG-Update-and-Call... · Caveat on Approach to Prioritization NOT IMPLEMENT](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041217/5e069066b984792d361493a9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

The report is organized by subsections for each HYDROLOGIC SUB-BASIN.
Benefits include:
• Based on recognized scientific subdivisions of watersheds, and consistent with org. in prior phases.
• Aligns with the scale of local monitoring and management planning, typically at sub-basin scale.
• Prevents perception that some sub-areas (e.g., individualtribs) are being given “special attention”.
• But still able to encompass tributary-scale information within each sub-basin profile.
Change in Focal Scale

Sub-Region Overviews• Restoration section
still includes sub-regional overviews.
• Includes summary of key issues and stressors at the sub-region scale.
• Then goes into each sub-basin.

Summary InfographicsSimple Visual Summaries
These infographics roll up the substantial content in each sub-basin profile into one easy-to-interpret summary.
Later, these graphics can form the foundation of a much shorter “plan summary document” aimed at time-limited managers and policymakers.

Roles Involved in Conducting Iterative PrioritizationThe multi-criteria scoring relies on aligning inputs and judgements from two groups:• A Technical Rating Committee
– Decide how criteria weighting factors should be set based on the context (e.g., location of interest, focal species of interest, etc.).
– Determine the spatial scale at which the prioritization will occur: sub-basin, sub-region, basin-wide.
– Will be key to maintaining the Integrated Tracking Inventory & Scoring Tool
• Restoration Proponents– Submit key information on costing and other attributes of a restoration
proposal that can support some Tier 2 criteria

each sub-basin? – Are any specific new actions recently proposed
missing? If so, please list these other actions with reference to supporting documentation.
2. Have any of the candidate restoration actions identified already been accomplished? Which ones?
3. Do you have any concerns about how this document is going to be received in your community?
4. Any other comments, questions or advice for us?
