Plan Direction:
Continue coordination with the State of Idaho in determining areas that should be considered available for suction dredge mining. Determinations concerning availability should consider:
a) Avoid suction dredge mining in bull trout and chinook salmon habitat after August 15 and through the remainder of the calendar year where it will adversely affect spawning and rearing fish and associated redds.
b) Seasonal closures should also be considered for other fish species as necessary to protect spawning adults, rearing juveniles and incubating redds, including steelhead trout, especially during drought years.
c) Avoid adverse effects from suction dredging to occupied TEPC plant habitat.
