This decision to operate the FSC continuously was originally made in large part given the limited amount of information at the time regarding anadromous fish run timing in the upper Xxxxx River Basin and how run timing may be affected by seasonal reservoir conditions. However, as more information becomes available, it is important to periodically evaluate the operational procedures of the FSC in order to ensure the facility is being operated in a manner beneficial to the capture and safe passage of out‐migrating fishes. After two years of operation, it has been shown that warm surface water temperature in Swift Reservoir correlates to both a reduction in the rate of target species collected by the FSC and an increase in mortality rates. This correlation has been observed from early‐July when the spring out‐migration period is coming to a close and remains prevalent through September. During this period, surface water temperatures in the reservoir exceed 180C and the reservoir becomes thermally stratified. Fish numbers collected at the FSC throughout the summer and early fall remain almost non‐existent due to these prevailing warm conditions, however those fish that are collected experience a high rate of mortality. By mid‐October reservoir surface water temperatures begin to cool and shortly after fish collection numbers at the FSC begin to increase. During the December 2014 monthly coordination meeting, PacifiCorp presented these finding to the Aquatic Coordination Committee (ACC). Included in the meeting was discussion on the need for turning the FSC off during this critical time period, particularly when surface water temperatures increase beyond what is thermally tolerated by anadromous salmonids. (The visual references used during this discussion are included at the end of this document). It was also discussed that this outage period would allow PacifiCorp to complete annual maintenance activities on the FSC and prepare the facility for winter operation. The following section is a summary of the protocols agreed upon by the ACC that would be used to guide operational decisions for turning the FSC off in the summer and back on in the fall. New Operational Protocols It was agreed that an adaptive management type approach would be best mode of operation for determining when to turn the FSC off each year. The reason for this is that conditions can change from year to year. PacifiCorp will notify the ACC prior to the maintenance outage for the FSC that coincides with warm surface water. • Key criteria and assumptions that will be considered for suspending daily operations of the FSC in the Summer: o Maximum daily water temperature recorded in the FSC reaches 180C; o Daily catch rates in the FSC have decreased by 50 percent for three consecutive days; o Daily rates recorded for collection mortality (SCOL) or transport mortality (STRANS) exceed the standard of 0.5 percent for three consecutive days. • Returning the FSC to daily operation in the fall: o The FSC will be returned to service after scheduled maintenance activities are completed. This occurring no later than the fifteenth day of October; o Maximum daily water temperature recorded in the FSC remains below 180C for three consecutive days; 160 Swift FSC ‐ July 2014 Daily Fish Catch and Average Water Temperature 25 140 20 120 Line Represents 18o C 100 15 80 60 10 40 5 20 0 0 7/1 7/3 7/5 7/7 7/9 7/11 7/13 7/15 7/17 7/19 7/21 7/23 7/25 7/27 7/29 7/31 Xxxxx Xxxx Number Collected Average Daily Water Temperature (C) Visual references provided during the December 2014 ACC meeting: 12 FSC Collection Mortality Rate May ‐ July, 2014 n=623 8 COHO (n=6,126) SPCH (n=905) CT (n=512) ST (n=853) BT (n=5) 4 Mortality 2 29 272n=1,078 n=3,394 n=3297 Standard 0.5% 0 April May June July Month ‐ 2014 Mortality Rate (%) Figure 1.

Swift Floating Surface Collector. Operation A total of 1,390 juvenile fish were collected during the Swift FSC was suspended periodically in January on account month of severe weather conditionsJanuary. The majority (57 percent) of these fish were coho (n=796), ice and snow build-upfollowed by spring Chinook (n=501), debris loadingcutthroat trout (n=45), emergency repairshatchery rainbow trout (n=35), bull trout (n=7), and poor road conditionssteelhead (n=6). All hatchery rainbow trout, bull trout, and salmonid fry (<60mm) were returned back to Swift Reservoir. The FSC continuously ran throughout the month of January – it was returned to service January 1, 2015 once conditions improvedthe smolt water supply valve (damaged in late December 2014) was repaired. During the month of January, only 272 No fish were collected with the majority of those fish being transported downstream.

This decision to operate the FSC continuously was originally made in large part given the limited amount of information at the time regarding anadromous fish run timing in the upper Xxxxx River Basin and how run timing may be affected by seasonal reservoir conditions. However, as more information becomes available, it is important to periodically evaluate the operational procedures of the FSC in order to ensure the facility is being operated in a manner beneficial to the capture and safe passage of out‐migrating fishes. After two years of operation, it has been shown that warm surface water temperature in Swift Reservoir correlates to both a reduction in the rate of target species collected by the FSC and an increase in mortality rates. This correlation has been observed from early‐July when the spring out‐migration period is coming to a close and remains prevalent through September. During this period, surface water temperatures in the reservoir exceed 180C and the reservoir becomes thermally stratified. Fish numbers collected at the FSC throughout the summer and early fall remain almost non‐existent due to these prevailing warm conditions, however those fish that are collected experience a high rate of mortality. By mid‐October reservoir surface water temperatures begin to cool and shortly after fish collection numbers at the FSC begin to increase. During the December 2014 monthly coordination meeting, PacifiCorp presented these finding to the Aquatic Coordination Committee (ACC). Included in the meeting was discussion on the need for turning the FSC off during this critical time period, particularly when surface water temperatures increase beyond what is thermally tolerated by anadromous salmonids. (The visual references used during this discussion are included at the end of this document). It was also discussed that this outage period would allow PacifiCorp to complete annual maintenance activities on the FSC and prepare the facility for winter operation. The following section is a summary of the protocols agreed upon by the ACC that would be used to guide operational decisions for turning the FSC off in the summer and back on in the fall. New Operational Protocols It was agreed that an adaptive management type approach would be best mode of operation for determining when to turn the FSC off each year. The reason for this is that conditions can change from year to year. PacifiCorp will notify the ACC prior to the maintenance outage for the FSC that coincides with warm surface water.  Key criteria and assumptions that will be considered for suspending daily operations of the FSC in the Summer: o Maximum daily water temperature recorded in the FSC reaches 180C; o Daily catch rates in the FSC have decreased by 50 percent for three consecutive days; o Daily rates recorded for collection mortality (SCOL) or transport mortality (STRANS) exceed the standard of 0.5 percent for three consecutive days.  Returning the FSC to daily operation in the fall: o The FSC will be returned to service after scheduled maintenance activities are completed. This occurring no later than the fifteenth day of October; o Maximum daily water temperature recorded in the FSC remains below 180C for three consecutive days; 160 Swift FSC ‐ July 2014 Daily Fish Catch and Average Water Temperature 25 140 20 120 Line Represents 18o C 100 15 80 60 10 40 5 20 0 0 7/1 7/3 7/5 7/7 7/9 7/11 7/13 7/15 7/17 7/19 7/21 7/23 7/25 7/27 7/29 7/31 Xxxxx Xxxx Number Collected Average Daily Water Temperature (C) Visual references provided during the December 2014 ACC meeting: 12 FSC Collection Mortality Rate May ‐ July, 2014 n=623 8 COHO (n=6,126) SPCH (n=905) CT (n=512) ST (n=853) BT (n=5) 4 Mortality 2 29 272n=1,078 n=3,394 n=3297 Standard 0.5% 0 April May June July Month ‐ 2014 Mortality Rate (%) Figure 1.

Swift Floating Surface Collector. Operation The Swift Floating Surface Collector (FSC) was put back into daily service on October 15, 2015. A total of 215 juvenile fish were collected during the Swift FSC was suspended periodically in January on account month of severe weather conditionsOctober and transported downstream. The majority (53 percent) of these fish were coho (n=115), ice and snow build-upfollowed by spring Chinook (n=91), debris loading, emergency repairssteelhead (n=7), and poor road conditionsbull trout (n=2). One coho fry (<60mm) and two bull trout were returned back to Swift Reservoir. The FSC was returned suspended the night of October 16, 2015 and October 25, 2015 due to service once conditions improved. During the month of January, only 272 fish were collected with the majority of those fish being transported downstream. Juvenile coho and spring Chinook accounted for the largest percentage (84%) of fish collectedheavy debris loading.
