PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

FCRPS FY 22 Site Condition Monitoring, Washington Side of The Dalles and John Day Projects, Benton and Klickitat Counties

GENERAL STATEMENT:

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) and the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) (Agencies) are jointly responsible for compliance with Sections 106 and 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) under the terms of the 2009 Systemwide Programmatic Agreement (SWPA) for management of historic properties affected by operations of the Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS). The Corps, Portland District manages The Dalles and John Day Projects, which are part of the FCRPS. The FCRPS Cultural Resource Program works closely with interested and affected tribes, state historic preservation offices (SHPOs), and other agencies for cultural resource management in compliance with Sections 106 and 110 of the NHPA.

The Corps is the land manager for The Dalles and John Day Projects (Projects). The Corps gathers data to assess the condition of historic properties, including historic properties of religious and cultural significance to Indian tribes (HPRCSITs), located on project lands and other lands within the Area of Potential Effects (APE) for Project operations.

The objective of this contract is to gather information that can assist in the development of long-term cultural resource management decisions. The following actions assist the Corps in management decisions:

Observing, documenting, and reporting on the physical dynamics of the erosional or depositional processes at monitored sites.

Recording site conditions to provide information from which future changes such as sediment loss, topographic change, vegetation change, human and animal use impacts, soil disturbance, and vandalism can be quantitatively determined.

Monitoring for looting, vandalism, and burial desecration at designated sites and ensuring the notification of proper authorities.

Accurate documentation of the variation and diversity of potential impacts and causal factors at the site.

Providing tribal insight about the religious and cultural significance of sites.

Providing recommendations for treatment of monitored sites including recommendations regarding future monitoring frequency.

The Corps and BPA require monitoring of the north shore of the Bonneville pool, The Dalles pool, and John Day pool.

Attachment 3 – GIS Data

BPA GIS Specification for FCRPS Cultural Resources Program Data, Updated 06/11/2021

1. GPS/GIS STANDARDS FOR ARCHAEOLOGICAL FIELD INVENTORY

The Agencies seek assistance to use GPS (global positioning system) to collect cultural resource Site, Survey, Documentation Methods, and Cultural Material locations within the location of work, as defined in the main body of the Statement of Work. The contractor will collect, edit, and differentially correct GPS files and then transmit projected ESRI geodatabase feature classes with tabular information and FGDC metadata as a deliverable. See Attachment: GIS data dictionary for a list of required fields, field definitions, and values. This data dictionary is not intended to represent all the possible information collected in the field. It is the information the agencies need for internal purposes.

1a GPS data collection The contractor will load a Data Dictionary or XML to the GPS unit. The Data Dictionary or XML file must match the BPA FCRPS Cultural Resource Program specifications1 for Feature Class Names, Field Names, Data Types/Lengths, and Field Definition and Values (Domains). If the contractor is unable to use the BPA’s XML data dictionary or geodatabase template, the contractor will create the data dictionary using the information provided in Attachment: GIS Data Dictionary.

1b GIS Data Formatting GIS Deliverable requirements:

Geodatabase Format: Tabular fields will be populated with information as specified in the GIS Data Dictionary. All feature class names, field names, and value choices must match the naming conventions in GIS Data Dictionary. The deliverable will include one geodatabase containing all deliverable feature classes.
