Hard Copy Form and Instructions
Before Filling out the Form
You MUST use the hard-copy OWRI form if a project has:
  • Multiple landowners
  • More than seven participants
  • Multiple Instream Water Right Transfers/Leases
  • Voluntary Tree Retention (related to timber harvest) and there are more than 5 treatments to report
  1. Download the most current version of the electronic or paper form for reporting from the OWEB website
  2. Check with your project partners to make sure the project has not already been reported. If you are updating a previously reported project, only report new information, such as this year's accomplishments or additional costs/contributions that occurred since the previous report.
  3. For projects funded by OWEB or the ODFW Restoration and Enhancement grant programs, be ready to write the grant number on the form (for cross referencing purposes).
  4. If you are updating a previously reported project, report new information only (new cost, new treatments, etc.).
  5. Read the Step-by-Step Instructions  for completing the reporting form.
 
***Note to OWEB Grantees***
Reporting to OWRI is a requirement of the Terms and Conditions of your restoration grant agreement with OWEB.  At the end of your grant, please complete the necessary OWRI form(s) to account for all aspects of your restoration project.
  • OWRI encourages reporting of activities on a yearly basis when a particular phase of a project is completed or when restoration by an individual landowner or at a specific site is done.  At the end of a multi-year project, please do not submit a summary report form to OWRI that recaps work that has previously been reported.  Instead, we ask that you report only the last of the work completed as part of the project and which has not yet been reported.  Please alert OWRI staff that this is the last form we will receive and for which OWEB grant it closes.
  • Do not report post-implementation status or monitoring related to closed OWEB grants to OWRI.  The post implementation status reports to OWEB should not be submitted on OWRI forms.

Submitting a Map
 
A project location map is required with your OWRI submission. To complement the new online reporting to OWRI, OWEB is suggesting online map-making tools for creating and submitting a project location map electronically. In an attempt to standardize the map products received by OWEB for OWRI projects, we have created mapping guidance documents based on these different data formats. The idea is to give respondents a ranking of preferred map formats and to allow flexibility for novice GIS users. For those of you who prefer to submit paper copies of the OWRI form, we ask that you print the map created using the "Beginning GIS Users" instructions and attach the paper copy of the map to your form before mailing it to OWEB.

1. Advanced GIS Users-- The format OWEB would prefer to receive project location information in is one or several shapefiles (if the project has point, polygon and line features, three shapefiles would need to be submitted).
 
      Click here for Step-by-Step Instructions for submitting a shapefile.  (PDF)
 
2. Beginning GIS Users-- The second best method for submitting project location information is using the Oregon Explorer Advanced Mapping tool to create a map in PDF.

After you have created your project location information in one of the suggested formats, please email the data (PDF or shapefile) to oweb.mapping@state.or.usIf you submitted your form using the OWRI Online Submission Tool please include the ProjectID provided to you in the subject line of the email .
 
If for any reason you have difficulty sending your project location data by email, please contact Ashley Seim, ashley.seim@state.or.us
