Reporting Requirements


Status Reporting
Most Fish and Wildlife program contracts are required to report on the progress of their work on either a monthly or quarterly basis. Monthly reports are typically due on the 7th of each month, and should cover the previous month's activities. Quarterly reports are typically due on the 15th of each month, and should cover activities of the previous quarter (the past three months). Beginning October 1, 2005, most Fish and Wildlife Program contractors will submit status reports online in Pisces, BPA's fish and wildlife project management software system.
Technical Publications
To see the types of reports used in the Fish and Wildlife Program, see Progress Reports and Publications.
Biological Reporting
Metrics
Some work elements have associated standards of measurement that should be used when reporting project accomplishments. Many of these metrics, such as the number of fish screens installed and miles of stream bank protected through land acquisition, easement, or lease, are for habitat protection and enhancement actions and are the same ones used by the Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund (PCSRF; Phase I) and BPA's current BiOp database. BPA also solicited new metric ideas from throughout the region.

Focal Species
BPA collects focal species data for all applicable work elements. A focal species is the primary species benefited from a project or contract action. In some cases, the focal species may be a group of species, such as wildlife, or a subset of a species, such as an ESU (evolutionarily significant unit).

Financial Reporting
Accruals
In order to accurately record Fish and Wildlife program expenses in the appropriate fiscal year, BPA asks its contractors report any unbilled expenses prior to the end of the fiscal year.

Cost Share
At the end of each fiscal year (starting with FY2007), we require Project Sponsors to provide an estimate of the cost share achieved (either cash or in-kind) for their project. Cost share information must be entered and submitted via Pisces. From the Report Center, you can view Project Cost Share Funding Source Summary reports.
