2 M A F A C C B P T A S K F O R C E Overview of Today s Presentation: Background on Columbia Basin & why we need goals Progress on CBP Products: Relationships Vision, Guiding Principles Qualitative Goals Quantitative Goals Next Steps June 25,
3 Columbia Basin salmon landscape: NOAA Fisheries has multiple responsibilities Endangered Species Act and Magnuson-Stevens Acts, Treaty/trust to tribes, and Mitigation 24 salmon stocks - 13 listed under ESA 4 H s: Habitat, Hydrosystem, Harvest, and Hatchery 4 states, 13 tribes, and many stakeholders Ongoing litigation since mid s June 25,
4 Major Columbia Basin Dams & ESA-Listed Fish 4 June 25,
5 CBP Task Force Purpose 2012 Situational Assessment by Ruckleshaus Center and Oregon Consensus found the need for: More coherent, integrated, and efficient means of addressing the complexities of salmon recovery NOAA Fisheries to convene regional sovereigns and stakeholders to develop common, long-term goals for salmon and steelhead CBP Task Force established in fall 2016 and began in January, members from states, tribes and stakeholders June 25,
6 Pristine Historical Potential Salmon Status Delisted ESA Recovery Healthy & Harvestable Broad Sense Goals Threatened Endangered Listed Extinct Time June 25,
7 What does this mean for PNWA Members? Not a regulatory process May inform ESA and MSA implementation May result in more consistent recovery and mitigation efforts throughout the Basin Ideally basin-wide goals can translate into more robust recovery This phase consists only of goal setting for Salmon and Steelhead A second phase may develop scenarios and recommendations Scenarios may include climate change, ranges of development, fisheries and harvest management, dam removal Navigation has more visibility and connectivity with a broad range of interests within the Basin June 25, 2018
8 CBP Task Force: Progress and Products June 25,
9 Desired CBP Task Force Outcomes Goals that address both conservation and harvest/fishing aspirations Goals that are understandable and consider various users of Columbia Basin resources Quantitative adult abundance goals for both listed and non-listed stocks Better coordination, more effective use of resources, and alignment of strategic priorities Enhanced relationships, trust, and knowledge June 25,
10 Engagement Framework Operating Principles Work Plan Guiding Principles Policy Framework Vision Qualitative Goals Values Ecological Social Cultural Economic Quantitative Goals (Pilot/Prototype) Analytical Framework & Strategic Tradeoffs Quantitative Goals (Basinwide Integration) Outcome Recommendations for Basinwide Goals June 25, 2018
11 Work Products and Progress: Guiding Principles FAIRNESS: Foster a culture of respect, equity and generosity and be accountable for our interests. OPENNESS & TRANSPARENCY: Everything is on the table recognize yours and others needs, acknowledge fears, threats and limitations to success, and be willing to re-evaluate them together. OBLIGATIONS & RESPONSIBILITIES: Honor legal, statutory, treaty/trust and regulatory obligations, rights, and responsibilities. CLARITY: Collaboratively arrive at solutions that improve regulatory and legal certainty. SUSTAINABILITY: Strive for durable and practical outcomes, seeking clarity while acknowledging a dynamic social/cultural, economic and natural landscape. KNOWLEDGE & WISDOM: Ground decisions and recommendations in science, while accepting that science may not be definitive. INNOVATION & ADAPTIVENESS: Plan for the long term, act in the short term and be bold in the face of uncertainty and change. INTERCONNECTION & COMPLEXITY: Envision a healthy and resilient ecosystem. Assume there are multiple solutions to resolving Basin issues. June 25,
12 Work Products and Progress: Draft Vision A healthy Columbia River Basin ecosystem with thriving salmon and steelhead that are indicators of clean and abundant water, reliable and clean energy, a robust regional economy, and vibrant cultural and spiritual traditions, all interdependent and existing in harmony. June 25,
13 Work Products and Progress: Provisional Qualitative Goals Reflect Guiding Principles and Vision Provide a foundation for Quantitative Goals Important link between Vision and Quantitative Goals Four categories Natural production Hatchery/mitigation Harvest/fisheries Social, cultural, economic, and ecological June 25,
14 Natural Production Qualitative Goals Goal 1. Restore salmon and steelhead in the Columbia Basin to healthy and harvestable/fishable levels. [Add explanatory paragraph here. Include definition of healthy (i.e., implies that fish abundance, productivity, spatial structure and diversity are at high levels; addresses needs for dependent wildlife); address fishable ; explain ESA recovery and broad-sense recovery, discuss time-frame issue although some of these are long-term goals, strive to do them sooner (e.g., could achieve goal 1-Cb in a shorter timeframe, like 24 years, for some populations), take action as soon as practicable and move as fast as possible. Highlight the need for strategic prioritization in phase2, etc.] Subgoals Within 25 years Within 50 years Within 100 years 1-A.
