In areas where ordinary high-water line has not been defined, the lateral extent is defined by the bankfull elevation. Bankfull elevation is the level at which water begins to leave the channel and move into the floodplain and is reached at a discharge which generally has a recurrence interval of 1 to 2 years on the annual flood series. Critical habitat in lake areas is defined by the perimeter of the water body as displayed on standard 1:24,000 scale topographic maps or the elevation of ordinary high water, whichever is greater.See the final rule (81 FR 9252) for descriptions of areas excluded from this critical habitat designation. Military areas ineligible for designation (qualifying Integrated Natural Resource Management Plan) were not clipped out of the data. Excluded Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) lands and Indian lands were not clipped out of the data. This spatial data file was modified from NMFS’s “agency-official” species critical habitat data to aid in the ESA/FIFRA section 7 pesticide consultation process. For example, existing data were adapted to incorporate associated watersheds where applicable, based on the USGS Watershed Boundary Dataset HUC-12 data (https://www.usgs.gov/national-hydrography/watershed-boundary-dataset). The modifications to the NMFS critical habitat spatial data make the data more compatible for future analyses with EPA’s Use Data Layers (UDLs). The following “Description” is from the original, “agency-official” data that was used to make this HUC-based map. Most of the metadata record for this species matches the “agency-official” record; however, NMFS added a new "Citation", "File Identifier", “Credits”, “Point of Contact”, and “Lineage Process Step” that are unique to this HUC-based critical habitat data.

FCH_STPUG_Designated&Excluded_6-6-16.shp Critical habitat data were derived from fish distribution data from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission. FCH_STPUG_Designated&Excluded_6-6-16.shp (GCS_North_American_1983 wkid 4269) geographic transformation not necessary, saved as -> STPUG_ch.shp (GCS_North_American_1983 wkid 4269). Geometry was edited (deleted features), attributes were not edited, metadata was edited. Deleted features were those with Econ_Excl = “Exclude - Economic Impacts” (i.e., removed economic exclusion features that were not designated). 2019-07-17T00:00:00 The 2019 version STPUG_ch.shp (GCS_North_American_1983 wkid 4269) was converted into the standardized feature class Steelhead_PugetSoundDPS_20160224 (GCS_WGS_84 wkid 4326) using the National Critical Habitat Geodatabase processing protocol. During standardization, geometry was not edited. Attributes were edited. Metadata was edited and populated using the final rule and metadata from the source FCH_STPUG_Designated&Excluded_6-6-16.shp (GCS_North_American_1983 wkid 4269). Migrated fields: "STRM_NAME" into "UNIT" (deleted values "unnamed" and "unnamed lake"), "USEDESC" into "NOTES" Dropped fields: FID, HUC5, USE, LENGTH, INRMP, Tribe_Excl, HCP_Excl, Econ_Excl, Final_CH 2021-04-26T00:00:00 As described above, this species’ HUC-based critical habitat dataset was modified from the line-based species “agency-official” NMFS critical habitat data. This HUC-based critical habitat file represents the HUC-12 watersheds (USGS Watershed Boundary Dataset; https://www.usgs.gov/national-hydrography/watershed-boundary-dataset) that intersect with the “agency-official” critical habitat line-based data. The data were reviewed and revised to add any additional HUC-12 watersheds that were determined to have hydrologic connectivity to the critical habitat. 2023-03-30T00:00:00 NMFS Office Of Protected Resources 301-713-2332 processor Source Contribution: Fishdist: 1:24,000 (24K) and 1:100,000 (100K) Statewide Salmonid Fish Distribution Fishdist: 1:24,000 (24K) and 1:100,000 (100K) Statewide Salmonid Fish Distribution Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife originator
