- Description
- This announcement is not a request for proposals. The Bureau of Reclamation Snake River Area Office intends to issue a sole source contract with the BURNS PAIUTE TRIBE to trap and transport bull trout at Agency Valley Dam. The deliverables under this contract will address certain terms and conditions of the 2005 bioligical opinion and maintain compliance with the Endangered Species Act. The opinion directs Reclamation to implement measures to minimize the effects and or amount of take associated with operation of Agency Valley Dam. The requirement - Trap and return bull trout that are entrained at Agency Valley Dam back to Beulah reservoir or the north Fork Malheur River upstream from the dam. All bull trout entrained below the dam will suffer take through death due to poor habitat conditions in the river. Services required are for the trap and transport of federally protected animals to reduce take and maintain compliance with the Endangered Species Act for federal actions. This is an exclusive governmental service requiring a federal permit that mandates expertise in care and handling of federally protected animals. The Tribe has done the most advanced fisheries work in this remote area of Agency Valley Dam and therefore is the most knowledgeable entity to trap and transport federally listed bull trout. The Tribes employ staff members who are trained and federally permitted for the capture and handling of ESA protected species and have completed these activities for Reclamation each spring since the listing of bull trout in 1998. The BPT currently holds a permit to capture and transport fish in the State of Oregon. Parties who believe they have knowledge sufficient to respond may e-mail their firm's qualifications to the following address. mday@pn.usbr.gov No phone or fax inquiries will be allowed.
