Before Filling out the Form...
  1. There are three reporting methods for OWRI submissions, review 'Which OWRI reporting method should I use?' before beginning a hard-copy form.  If the submission is a requirement of an OWEB grant agreement, the new OWRI Online Reporting Tool must be used to ensure a complete submission.
  2. Please review the 'Defining your Project' guidance to understand the OWRI definition of a project.  If the project includes more than one landowner and the project could be reported as separate spatially discreet locations and treatments, please report each landowner's project as a separate OWRI project (e.g., one grant paid for multiple work sites).
  3. The hard-copy OWRI could be used if a project has:
    • More than two landowners at the work site
    • More than eight participants
    • Multiple Instream Water Right Transfers/Leases
    • Voluntary Tree Retention (related to timber harvest) and there are more than five treatments to report
  4. Check with project partners to make sure the project has not already been reported. If it is an update to a previously reported project, only report new information, such as this year's accomplishments or additional costs/contributions that occurred since the previous report.
  5. For projects funded by OWEB or the ODFW Restoration and Enhancement grant programs, be prepared to supply the grant number on the form (for cross referencing purposes).
  6. If it is an update to a previously reported project, report new information only (new cost, new treatments, etc.).

The hard-copy forms have not been revised.  To ensure a complete OWRI submission, please use the new OWRI Online Reporting Tool.  All projects submitted to the OWRI must either utilize the online reporting tool or the available forms dated January 2010.  If a project is submitted using a previous form, it will not be accepted.

Project Location Map Guidance
A project location map is required with your OWRI submission.
 
OWEB suggests using an online tool for creating a project location map. In an attempt to standardize the map products received by OWEB for OWRI projects, we have created mapping guidance documents. For those who prefer to submit paper copies of the OWRI form, we ask that you print the map created using the "Beginning GIS Users" instructions (below) and attach the paper copy of the map to your form before mailing it to OWEB.
  
1. Beginning GIS Users--  Use the Oregon Explorer Advanced Mapping tool to create a PDF map.
 
        Click here for Step-by-Step Instructions for submitting a map using Oregon Explorer. (PDF) 
 
2. Attach a printed, color copy of the map to the hard-copy form.
