Environmental
Restoration Technical Assistance (ERTA) Eastern Washington Section
The
WDFW TAPPS Division staff within ERTA East provide daily technical
assistance and customer service to a variety of constituents, including
the general public, irrigation owners, private industry representatives,
consultants and contractors, city officials, conservation districts,
lead entities and those they represent, legislators, and other federal,
state, and local governmental agencies and tribal nations.
ERTA East technical
assistance staff specialize in surface water diversion screening
consultation, Eastern Washington fish passage inventories, habitat
assessments, and habitat restoration projects. ERTA East staff are
available to assist project proponents in project prioritization,
scoping (site evaluation), planning, funding opportunities, permitting,
cost estimation, construction alternatives, and project management.
In concert with Habitat Engineering Technical Assistance (HETA)
staff that provides preliminary project design technical assistance,
TAPPS personnel can provide turn-key technical assistance and outreach
to prospective clients on a variety of salmonid habitat protection
and restoration projects.
In addition,
ERTA East and HETA staff may be available to meet requests for habitat
project technical assistance that would require a substantial commitment
of time (e.g., coordinating project permits, project development,
conceptual project design, and project management), provided the
project sponsor contracts with WDFW to provide necessary funding
to cover the time commitment.
