This amendment corrects the time of the site visit and when responses are due.
The requirement to manage and maintain the WFWMA. The WFWMA was established in 1988 to mitigate the losses of wildlife habitat due to loss of habitat resulting the construction of the third power plant. The area is approximately 574-acres and located on a narrow terrace along the west bank of the Columbia river near the town of Coulee Dam. WFWMA has 16 irrigated plots comprised of trees and shrubs and planted food crops. The primary irrigation system water is supplied by a large capacity well, which uses a 50-horsepower submersible electrical pump. Work will consist of; maintaining and operating the irrigating system, clear debris from the irrigation system, plant food crops, shrubs, trees and native grasses, fertilize existing and new-planted vegetation, control grasses and noxious weeds, maintain deer fencing and fencing around perimeter of WFWMA, maintain gravel roads, maintain wildlife feeding and watering stations, and fill wildlife feeding stations for winter. This requirement is to ensure that wildlife habitat will continue to be viable and thrive in years to come.
