About the Asset Management Strategic Plan

The 2014 Fish and Wildlife Program (Program) included an investment strategy (Part Six, Section II; and Appendix P) that specifically called for long-term maintenance of the assets created by prior Program investments. This need was ranked the highest emerging priority in the 2014 Program.

In response, the Council developed a strategic plan to ensure the longevity and integrity of the Program’s past investments. This work, guided by the Asset Management Subcommittee (O&M Subcommittee), was a collaborative process between the Bonneville Power Administration, the Independent Economic Analysis Board, the Fish Screening Oversight Committee (FSOC), fish and wildlife managers, and the cost savings workgroup. This collaborative effort was developed to address non-recurring maintenance needs for hatcheries, fish screens, and mitigation lands to ensure longevity and integrity of the Program’s past investments made for the benefit of fish and wildlife.

The Asset Management Strategic Plan was adopted by the Council in 2018 and complements Bonneville’s strategic asset management plans.

Hatchery site visits and assessments were completed in 2017 and refreshed in 2023. Fish screen needs have continued to be prioritized by managers and FSOC, and an independent assessment of the Program’s five screen fabrication facilities was completed in 2025.
