Issue Summary from the May 1995 IAC Meeting
Meeting Date: May 4, 1995 REO Contact: Mike Tehan
Topic: Revision of Ecosystem Analysis at the Watershed Scale: The Revised Federal Guide to Watershed Analysis (Guide)
Objective: Comment on the March 24 review draft Guide; agree on next steps for revision.
Summary of Discussion/IAC Actions: The Watershed Analysis Coordination Team (WACT) presented background information on watershed analysis, explained the draft Guide, summarized comments received from IAC members and others, and identified two policy issues for IAC resolution: 1) what (if any) standard requirements should the Guide prescribe for all watershed analyses; and, 2) what approach should the WACT take to finalize the Guide. Among the many points addressed during the IAC discussion were:

a. Different views of how to proceed with the "six-step analysis process."

  • Edit, finalize, and distribute the "six-steps" as a stand-alone document, while continuing to refine other portions of the Guide (domains and modules).
  • Do not release the "six-steps" until key policy questions can be further discussed.
  • Delay release of the "six-steps" until the domains and modules are revised and can accompany the steps as a complete package.

b. IAC members were not in agreement on whether or not watershed analysis should be "issue-driven." This stemmed, in part, from different interpretations of the term "issues."

c. Some members want to review the consistency of the January 10, 1995, direction letter to REO with the ROD.

d. There were questions regarding what, if any, minimum standards would be included in the revised Guide. There was extensive discussion regarding when watershed analysis is required, what level of analysis is required for different activities, and how much agency discretion exists to interpret the requirement for, and level of, watershed analysis.

e. Several members of the committee expressed agreement to suspend the current Guide revision schedule until the issues discussed are resolved.

IAC Agreements: The IAC took the following actions in lieu of directly responding to the two policy issues identified by the REO/WACT at the beginning of the presentation.

1. A policy group was formed and charter written to address the above policy issues.

2. Further work on the domains and modules will be put on hold until the June meeting. The WACT will continue to refine the "six-step analysis" process by incorporating written comments already received.

3. The agencies should continue to use the existing Federal Agency Guide to Pilot Watershed Analysis until further notice (to avoid confusion associated with multiple interim Guides).

4. Federal executives on the IAC reaffirmed their commitment to fully support the WACT and related staff requirements to complete the Guide.

RIEC Decisions: NA
Follow-up Actions (who/what/when):

1. The REO will schedule a policy group meeting. The policy group will meet to: 1) resolve policy questions, including those identified in the attached charter; and, 2) develop options for IAC discussion/agreement at the June meeting, to clarify direction to the WACT for Guide revision.

2. The REO will work with WACT, legal counsel, and agency managers to staff-out items in the attached charter for the initial policy group meeting.

3. The WACT will further refine the six-step analysis process incorporating the comments received, and report progress at the June meeting.

CHARTER
Group Name: Watershed Analysis Policy Group May 5, 1995
Purpose: There is common agreement among Intergovernmental Advisory Committee (IAC) members that the watershed analysis process must be implementable, add value, and result in timely analysis to support resource programs integral to the Northwest Forest Plan (NFP) implementation. The process must be responsive to the public, to agencies' management and regulatory needs, and meet expectations established in the NFP. However, there is a wide range of interpretations on how comprehensive a watershed analysis should be and still be able to meet these expectations.

Prior to formation of the IAC, the Regional Interagency Executive Committee (RIEC) directed the interagency Watershed Analysis Coordination Team (WACT) to develop a watershed analysis guide that would meet these expectations within the framework of the Record of Decision (ROD) for the NFP. This policy group of the IAC is being established to provide an opportunity for IAC members to review the previous direction and provide input to the REO and WACT as they revise Ecosystem Analysis at the Watershed Scale: The Revised Federal Guide to Watershed Analysis (Guide).

Tasks:

1. Perform (or commission) a review of:

a. The January 10, 1995, RIEC direction letter for consistency with the fundamental requirements of the ROD.

b. The ROD requirements for watershed analysis: when is it required and when is it not required.

c. The basis for agency discretion to exempt "minor activities" from watershed analysis. (This may need to be put on a fast track, as it is a current problem for the agencies.)

d. Authority in the ROD to have different levels of analysis (e.g., simple vs. complex).

2. If found consistent with the ROD, review the January 10 RIEC direction letter to the REO and WACT to:

a. Identify policy issues of concern to IAC members.

b. Agree on solutions for resolving the issues so that Guide revision can proceed.

This review will include items such as:

a. Clarify use of term "issues" in watershed analysis:

  • Define "issues."
  • Explain how "issues" affect watershed analysis priorities.
  • Explain how "issues" affect the scope of analyses.

b. Define options for levels of analysis:

  • If there is discretion in the ROD, can the circumstances or activities that warrant different levels of analysis be defined?
  • If there is discretion in the ROD, can certain minor activities be exempted from watershed analysis? If so, examples of such activities?

c. Define options for minimum watershed analysis requirements/data:

  • Minimum elements/analyses to characterize the watershed.
  • Minimum analyses (including modules) to address management needs (e.g., ESA, riparian reserve changes, CWA, etc.).
  • Minimum data standards.

d. Clarify which agencies are expected to use the Guide and its relationship to nonfederal lands.

3. Review WACT recommendations for Guide revisions (easy fixes). Identify non-controversial items for action by the WACT.

Group Members: All IAC members (or their alternates) are invited to participate.
Statement of Success: The work group will be considered successful if it can agree on policies that are consistent with the ROD, that can be supported by IAC members, and that clarify existing direction to the REO and the WACT for revising the watershed analysis Guide so that watershed analysis is doable, yet still rigorous and ecosystem-focused.

 

Issue Summary from the May 1995 IAC Meeting
Meeting Date: May 4, 1995 REO Contact: Curt Loop/Ranotta McNair
Topic: Ecosystem Restoration/Jobs-in-the-Woods
Objective: Review the background paper on the Ecosystem Restoration/Jobs-in-the-Woods program. Agree on how the IAC will proceed with this issue.
Summary of Discussion/IAC Actions: Following the presentation of the background paper on the Economic Initiatives, Terry Gorton, State of California representative, stated that she had just attended a meeting of the chairpersons of the three State CERTs. Their next meeting is scheduled for May 23, 1995. Ms. Gorton agreed to brief the committee on the results of the meeting, which may help identify future issues to pursue and what the IAC focus should be.

Some IAC members indicated that there is some frustration at the local level due to the apparent lack of opportunity to influence how money is spent. Committee members representing federal agencies indicated that there may be a difference in the way states and federal agencies measure success. Federal agencies often measure success by identifying how much money is injected into the community; whereas, the states often view success as providing (long-term) employment to displaced timber workers.

The committee suggested they invite a province chairperson to give a presentation on field activities, at a future meeting.

IAC Agreements: The IAC indicated that members who serve on various CERTs may provide sufficient information for the committee concerning the Economic Adjustment Initiative. Further, IAC members, and REO Staff, working with the CERTs may provide the needed liaison and linkage between the forest resources and economic development organizations (i.e., the IAC and the CERTs).

The IAC will focus on the Jobs-in-the-Woods portion of the Economic Adjustment Initiative as it pertains to the federal agencies responsible for the implementation of the program (FS, BLM, FWS, BIA, & EPA).

RIEC Decisions: NA
Follow-up Actions (who/what/when): The REO will schedule a province chairperson to present a status report of actions and issues at the province level.

Issue Summary from the May 1995 IAC Meeting
Meeting Date: May 4, 1995 REO Contact: Gary S. Sims
Topic: FACA
Objective: Review FACA exemption language in 1995 Unfunded Mandates Bill and agree on related follow-up actions.
Summary of Discussion/IAC Actions: The REO presented the results of a review of the applicable section of the bill (Section 204). There are a number of unresolved issues about the language and its potential affect on the operations of the committee; e.g., what is meant by: "meetings exclusively" between federal and other governments, or "elected officers ... or their designated employees ... with authority to act on their behalf."

The current USDA position regarding the legislation was summarized as: 1) The Department, not individual committees, will determine which advisory committees will be terminated and "re-formed" under Section 204; and, 2) the Department does not intend to act until the GSA publishes the interim regulation.

GSA expects to have interim regulations to be released in early to mid-May 1995.

IAC Agreements: The IAC will continue to operate as an advisory committee until additional guidance and/or Department direction is received.
RIEC Decisions: NA
Follow-up Actions (who/what/when): The REO staff should keep abreast of activities at Departmental and GSA levels. Interim guidelines, when released, should be reviewed to see if they lead to a different assessment than presented to the committee.

Issue Summary from the May 1995 IAC Meeting
Meeting Date: May 4, 1995 REO Contact: Dan McKenzie
Topic: Research and Monitoring Committee (RMC) as a subcommittee.
Objective: Discuss and approve the RMC subcommittee charter. Finalize formation of the subcommittee.
Summary of Discussion/IAC Actions: The RMC presented the subcommittee charter and a communication strategy to facilitate participation by subcommittee members at reduced time/funding costs. The RMC also noted that no nominations from IAC members for new membership to the subcommittee have been received. It was pointed out that such nominations may be received at any time.

IAC members stated that although the content of the subcommittee charter was acceptable, the format was difficult to read and understand. The IAC requested that the charter be re-written in a format similar to the IRICC charter. Some IAC members requested that the RMC review the possibility of moving meetings around the region in order to make them more accessible to a wider group of people and thereby enhance participation opportunities.

IAC Agreements: The IAC approved the charter of the RMC subcommittee.
RIEC Decisions: NA
Follow-up Actions (who/what/when):
  • The RMC will re-write the subcommittee charter in a format similar to that of the IRICC.
  • The RMC will explore opportunities to hold meetings in different geographic locations in order to enhance participation opportunities.
 

CHARTER
Group Name: Research and Monitoring Subcommittee Date: May 5, 1995
Purpose: The Research and Monitoring Committee (RMC) is established as a subcommittee of the IAC to facilitate implementation of the Northwest Forest Plan (NFP) in three major areas: scientific oversight, monitoring, and research. In each of these areas, the RMC provides advice and guidance in the development of plans and guidelines to coordinate interagency planning, research and monitoring activities for NFP implementation. The RMC will report to the IAC through the Regional Ecosystem Office (REO) and will provide recommendations and reports on relevant scientific issues.

Scope: The RMC works to develop strong scientific relationships among the participating agencies, Indian Tribes, management groups, and public and private organizations. These efforts focus on coordination, communication, information sharing, and planning to insure that the best available scientific information is developed and applied in ecosystem management. In addition, RMC develops guidelines for scientific oversight to achieve credible science of the highest quality in NFP implementation. Scientific oversight includes periodic review of the monitoring and research activities that support the NFP, as well as interpretation and recommendations for changes to the standards and guidelines.

The RMC orchestrates the development of an interagency monitoring network plan to provide monitoring data that can be compared and interpreted across numerous agencies and on relevant temporal and spatial scales. This includes identification of information needs, monitoring designs and protocols, and guidelines for implementation at several spatial scales and project objectives. The RMC adopts a leadership role in working with the numerous groups developing monitoring activities as part of specific Plan implementation components; e.g., Watershed Analysis (WACT), Adaptive Management Areas (AMA), Late-Successional Reserves (LSR), Survey and Manage (S&M). The RMC coordinates the implementation of monitoring activities and aids in translating priority needs into action and budget plans. The RMC will periodically review and update this plan and evaluate progress toward meeting high priority monitoring needs. The RMC seeks to involve a wide spectrum of scientists and managers in the conduct and review of the monitoring activities.

The RMC helps coordinate and facilitate priority research for the NFP through development of an interagency research plan. Annually, the RMC will review and update this plan, identify significant findings, and assess priority research needs. In addition, the RMC will help to translate this information into action and budget plans. The RMC will also work to coordinate the research activities conducted in the AMA's. Significant research results and their implications for management actions, and standards and guidelines will be highlighted. The annual assessment will also present an evaluation of the implementation of the research plan and progress towards acquisition of priority scientific information.

Membership: Currently the RMC has representatives from the following participating agencies: EPA, BIA, FS, NMFS, NPS, NRCS, BLM, FWS, USGS, and NBS. These members will continue and be joined by representatives from the additional IAC organizations. Representatives are expected to contribute to the success of the RMC and to provide the necessary coordination and communication with their organization. The RMC is supported by three full-time staff on assignment from FS, NBS, and EPA research organizations, in coordination with the Regional Ecosystem Office (REO). These staff will provide support for scientific oversight, monitoring, and research, and are designated as the Research and Monitoring Group (RMG).

Meeting Schedule: RMC meetings are open and encourage broad participation. Meetings are held twice monthly; while attendance is encouraged, participation via conference call will be provided whenever feasible. Pre-meeting materials and agendas will be distributed prior to meetings. Meeting notes will be distributed following the meetings. Electronic communication will be used to the maximum extent feasible to facilitate committee operations and information sharing.

Leadership: The committee will be chaired by the RMG staff assigned to Scientific Oversight. The Chair will be expected to serve as coordinator and facilitator in support of RMC objectives as determined by the IAC.

Project Teams: The RMC will create working groups on an as needed basis. Ongoing groups will address monitoring and research issues and planning.

Funding: Participating organizations are responsible for covering costs associated with subcommittee activities.

Issue Summary from the May 1995 IAC Meeting
Meeting Date: May 4, 1995 REO Contact: Tim Quinn
Topic: Interoganizational Resource Information Coordinating Council (IRICC) Charter
Objective: Discuss and approve the IRICC subcommittee charter. Finalize formation of the subcommittee.
Summary of Discussion/IAC Actions: The IRICC presented a summary of its charter. Ensuing discussion and questions included:

1. IRICC's efforts to include representatives from California.

2. IRICC's scope beyond federal lands.

3. Potential overlap between IRICC and Research and Monitoring Committee.

4. Clarification of specific provisions within the charter.

IAC Agreements: The IAC approved the IRICC charter with modifications to clearly state that the geographic scope includes Washington, Oregon, and northern California; and, to change references from "Treaty Rights" to "Federally Reserved Rights."
RIEC Decisions: N/A
Follow-up Actions (who/what/when): Tim Quinn will contact Mark Stanley of the State of California Resources Agency concerning coordination of fire information systems with IRICC. IRICC and the Research and Monitoring Committee were asked to ensure that they have at least one member in common to coordinate and avoid duplication. Tim Quinn will contact the county and tribal representatives to obtain their nominations for the IRICC subcommittee.

Issue Summary from the May 1995 IAC Meeting
Meeting Date: May 4, 1995 REO Contact: Chris Hamilton
Topic: Activity Information Sharing (Management Information Sharing)
Objective: Review and provide direction concerning format and possible content items of a proposed management information system.
Summary of Discussion/IAC Actions: The REO suggested the following activities which agencies may consider sharing information:
  • Timber Sales Restoration Projects FERC License Renewals
  • Future ESA Listings Section 7 Consultation Section 303d Impaired Waterbodies
  • Watershed Analysis LSR Assessments Adaptive Management Area Plans

During the presentation, IAC members identified the following additional items of interest:

  • Status of the Proposed 4(d) Rule
  • Location and Status of HCPs
  • Conservation Agreements
  • Consultation Timeline
  • Annual Accomplishments and Budget Report

It was noted that a consistent set of watershed boundaries is needed to make the information easily used and understood. Private lands must be included in watershed delineation and coverage should be rangewide.

IAC Agreements:
  • The IAC supported the concept of an Activity Information Sharing system as presented, but made it clear that it is to be developed by using existing data.
  • The first two priorities of the REO GIS staff are Survey and Manage and Watershed Delineations. The Activity Information Sharing is third priority.
RIEC Decisions: NA
Follow-up Actions (who/what/when):
  • The REO GIS staff will collect the above information and distribute "paper copies" to all IAC members.
  • The REO GIS staff will initiate a pilot test to attempt to spatially tie together: timber sales, watershed analyses, Jobs-in-the-Woods projects, impaired waterbodies, and fish stocks being considered for ESA listing.
  • The REO GIS staff will work with the IRICC to collect and distribute the information listed; agencies will refer resources to Chris Hamilton to collect the information.
  • A progress report will be presented at the July IAC meeting.
