All costs associated with DOI’s partnership with DOE to fill the remaining capacity of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) with Federal Gulf of Mexico royalty-in-kind (RIK) oil, in response to a Presidential directive issued in November 2001. The Initiative was structured so that MMS manages the supply side logistics of taking RIK oil at Federal offshore lease sites and then accomplishes the aggregation of the oil at onshore market centers. Custody of the oil is passed to DOE, which exchanges it for crude oil of desired quality and ensures that the oil is physically delivered to the SPR sites. |

Maintenance is the upkeep of constructed facilities and structures and capitalized equipment necessary to realize the originally anticipated useful life of the fixed assets. Methods of accomplishing Maintenance are:
1. Annual Maintenance is Maintenance performed to repair failures during the year in which they occur. Includes preventive and/or cyclic maintenance performed in the year in which it is scheduled to occur. Annual Maintenance can be performed through:
Repair: Work to restore a damaged, broken, or worn-out facility, facility component, or item of equipment to normal operating condition.
Preventive Maintenance: Scheduled servicing; repairs; inspections; adjustments; and replacement of parts that result in fewer breakdowns and fewer premature replacements and achieve the expected life of facilities and equipment
Cyclic Maintenance: Preventive maintenance activities that recur on a periodic and scheduled cycle of greater than 1 year.
2. Deferred Maintenance is Maintenance that was not performed when it should have been or when it was scheduled and which, therefore, was put off or delayed for a future period. This also includes work performed to correct facilities deficiencies where there is noncompliance to codes (e.g. life safety, ADA, OSHA, environmental, etc.) and other regulatory or Executive Order compliance requirements. Deferred Maintenance can be preformed through:
Repair: Work to restore a damaged, broken, or worn-out facility, facility component, or item of equipment to normal operating condition.
Rehabilitation (without expansion or change of function): Renovation of an existing facility or any of its components in order to restore and/or extend the life of the facility.
Replacement: Substitution or exchange of one existing facility, facility component, or item of equipment for another having the capacity to perform the same function.
Demolition: Dismantling and removal, or surplus of a deteriorated or otherwise unneeded facility or item of equipment, including necessary clean-up work.
This activity does not include maintenance of tribal roads, which is covered under DOI work activity V3.

Provide facilities for public benefit (construct, maintain, and operate projects and facilities) |
Maintenance is the upkeep of constructed facilities and structures and capitalized equipment necessary to realize the originally anticipated useful life of the fixed assets. Methods of accomplishing Maintenance are:
1. Annual Maintenance is Maintenance performed to repair failures during the year in which they occur. Includes preventive and/or cyclic maintenance performed in the year in which it is scheduled to occur. Annual Maintenance can be performed through:
Repair: Work to restore a damaged, broken, or worn-out facility, facility component, or item of equipment to normal operating condition.
Preventive Maintenance: Scheduled servicing; repairs; inspections; adjustments; and replacement of parts that result in fewer breakdowns and fewer premature replacements and achieve the expected life of facilities and equipment
Cyclic Maintenance: Preventive maintenance activities that recur on a periodic and scheduled cycle of greater than 1 year.
2. Deferred Maintenance is Maintenance that was not performed when it should have been or when it was scheduled and which, therefore, was put off or delayed for a future period. This also includes work performed to correct facilities deficiencies where there is noncompliance to codes (e.g. life safety, ADA, OSHA, environmental, etc.) and other regulatory or Executive Order compliance requirements. Deferred Maintenance can be preformed through:
Repair: Work to restore a damaged, broken, or worn-out facility, facility component, or item of equipment to normal operating condition.
Rehabilitation (without expansion or change of function): Renovation of an existing facility or any of its components in order to restore and/or extend the life of the facility.
Replacement: Substitution or exchange of one existing facility, facility component, or item of equipment for another having the capacity to perform the same function.
Demolition: Dismantling and removal, or surplus of a deteriorated or otherwise unneeded facility or item of equipment, including necessary clean-up work.
Note: This activity is used for dams and water storage facilities maintenance work related to any of the End Outcome Goals or Intermediate Outcome Strategies within DOI’s Strategic Plan.

Maintenance is the upkeep of constructed facilities and structures and capitalized equipment necessary to realize the originally anticipated useful life of the fixed assets. Methods of accomplishing Maintenance are:
1. Annual Maintenance is Maintenance performed to repair failures during the year in which they occur. Includes preventive and/or cyclic maintenance performed in the year in which it is scheduled to occur. Annual Maintenance can be performed through:
Repair: Work to restore a damaged, broken, or worn-out facility, facility component, or item of equipment to normal operating condition.
Preventive Maintenance: Scheduled servicing; repairs; inspections; adjustments; and replacement of parts that result in fewer breakdowns and fewer premature replacements and achieve the expected life of facilities and equipment
Cyclic Maintenance: Preventive maintenance activities that recur on a periodic and scheduled cycle of greater than 1 year.
2. Deferred Maintenance is Maintenance that was not performed when it should have been or when it was scheduled and which, therefore, was put off or delayed for a future period. This also includes work performed to correct facilities deficiencies where there is noncompliance to codes (e.g. life safety, ADA, OSHA, environmental, etc.) and other regulatory or Executive Order compliance requirements. Deferred Maintenance can be preformed through:
Repair: Work to restore a damaged, broken, or worn-out facility, facility component, or item of equipment to normal operating condition.
Rehabilitation (without expansion or change of function): Renovation of an existing facility or any of its components in order to restore and/or extend the life of the facility.
Replacement: Substitution or exchange of one existing facility, facility component, or item of equipment for another having the capacity to perform the same function.
Demolition: Dismantling and removal, or surplus of a deteriorated or otherwise unneeded facility or item of equipment, including necessary clean-up work.
Note: This activity is used for structures/non-building maintenance work related to any of the End Outcome Goals or Intermediate Outcome Strategies within DOI’s Strategic Plan. Code maintenance work here that does not support other facility type for which there is another, separate DOI work activity, e.g. buildings, dams, water conveyance facilities, utilities, etc.

This activity is used for all litigation related to any of the End Outcome Goals under Resource Protection. |
Litigation is the formal process in a court or administrative agency in which legal rights and obligations are contested by the parties and decided by a judge. This activity covers any and all work associated with administrative or judicial litigation related to the end outcome goals for Resource Protection, including litigation support provided by the bureaus and offices, legal representation provided by the Office of the Solicitor, and adjudications provided by the Office of Hearings and Appeals.
Examples include litigation involving wildfire management (non-WUI)*, natural resource damage assessments, threatened and endangered species, and wild horses and burros. Excluded are personnel-related litigation (which is covered by activities 61 and 75) and employee debt-related cases (which are covered by activity 62).
Work activities include the following when done in the context of litigation: reviewing case files and pleadings; factual investigations and legal research; preparing legal documents, testimony, and exhibits; responding to discovery requests; participating in direct negotiations or other ADR; participating in or conducting hearings (including related travel and court reporting costs); and preparing or reviewing judicial orders and decisions.
Legal tasks outside the context of litigation are covered by the specific programmatic activities to which they relate, not by activity 69. These include drafting or reviewing legislation and regulations, seeking or providing legal advice, contracting and contract administration, and ADR intended to head off litigation. Also excluded from activity 69 is the cost of complying with decisions from administrative or judicial tribunals.
For cases where the bureau or office is responding to litigation filed by others, time should be charged to this activity once a complaint, notice of appeal, or other initiating document has been filed with the administrative or judicial tribunal. For cases where the bureau or office is initiating litigation against others, time should be charged to this activity once any preliminary review has been completed and a decision has been made by government attorneys (Solicitor’s Office or Department of Justice) to initiate litigation.
* Note: litigation involving wildfire management (WUI) is covered by activity 72 under Serving Communities. |

This activity applies only to FWS and refers to domestic listings. |
Tasks: for US/domestic species, prepare 30-day responses, 90-day findings, 12-month findings and Federal Register Package; perform activities for revised listing packages; prepare and process special 4(d) rules that accompanies package; prepare and process 4(d) rules and critical habitat rules that are integral with listing package; compile relevant information; conduct status reviews, including National Marine Fisheries Service technical assistance; provide technical assistance on listing issues; write, review, and brief proposed and final finding, listing rules, critical habitat rules, and accompanying rulemaking documents; identify critical habitats; produce economic analyses of critical habitat designations; comply with other regulatory requirements, such as Small Business Regulatory Flexibility Act and Executive Order 12866, the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and Executive Orders 12630 and 12988; develop maps; hold public hearings and take, assemble and respond to public comments; post legal notices; obtain and conduct peer reviews; respond to Notice(s) of Intent; provide input for responding to complaints or drafting declarations; assist with legal briefs; compile administrative records; provide input into negotiations; assist with settlement memos and discoveries; respond to interrogatories and depositions; provide expert testimony; conduct court hearings and negotiations; coordinate and develop litigation strategy with Office of the Solicitor; ensure National Environmental Policy Act compliance; compile, analyze, and report digital spatial data; compile record of compliance; provide program management and research; prepare and process policy and guidance documents; maintain litigation database
Note: The Service must make finding within 90 days of receiving a petition as to whether or not there is substantial information indicating that the petitioned listing may be warranted.
Note: The Service must make finding within 9 months of the 90-day finding that there is substantial information indicating that the petitioned listing may be warranted. There are two distinct actions for petition management. The first step in 30/90 day finding; however, not all 90-day findings will trigger a 12-month action. 90-day findings that are substantial require 12-month findings that funded at a different level, and require public notice or status review. 12-month findings could result in listing a species.
Note: Publication in the Federal Register of a 12-month finding makes public the Service's decision on a petition to list a species as threatened or endangered under the Federal Endangered Species Act. That finding is based on a detailed assessment of the available information on the species, as detailed in the species' status review. One of three possible conclusions can be reached as part of the finding: that listing is warranted, not warranted, or warranted but presently precluded by other higher-priority listing activities involving other species.
Note: Listing a species as threatened or endangered provides the species with protections under Endangered Species Act. These include restrictions on taking, transporting, or selling species; a requirement that federal agencies not fund, permit or undertake activities that would jeopardize the continued existence of the species; authorization for the Service to develop and carry out recovery plans; authority to purchase important habitat; and federal aid to state wildlife agencies that have cooperative agreements with the Service. This activity includes revisions and corrections to listing packages, as well as reclassifications from threatened to endangered.
Note: The law provides for designation of critical habitat for listed species when judged to be prudent and determinable . Critical habitat includes geographic areas on which are found those physical or biological features essential to the conservation of the species and which may require special management considerations or protection. Critical habitats may include areas not occupied by the species at the time of listing but that are essential to the conservation of the species. Critical habitat designations affect only federal agency actions or federally funded or permitted activities. This activity includes revisions and corrections to critical habitat packages.

All costs associated with enhancing the habitat (flooding, acquiring water rights, adjusting food availability, etc.) for the purpose of improving condition of species as well as annual and cyclic habitat management for purpose of species management.
This work activity may also include costs associated with assessing and documenting existing habitat conditions to determine the presence or absence, abundance, range, and/or distribution status, for plant and botanical resources, and species occurrence for non-endangered or threatened fish, wildlife, fungi and plant species and their habitat parameters. This work may include the collection, analysis, evaluation, interpretation, and synthesis of habitat baseline data and reporting of habitat information. The work also includes habitat-monitoring efforts related to species habitat parameters that are directly relevant to a species of interest.
This activity is intended to capture costs associated with managing habitat as a means for managing non-T&E species. It includes habitat enhancement, habitat replacement, use of easements, annual and cyclic habitat management, and purchase of water and water rights.
This work activity also includes all labor and operating costs associated with restoration and management of habitats (including uplands, wetlands, and riparian and aquatic habitats) supporting biologic communities. In addition, activities aimed at conservation of habitat for species of management concern are included: Work activities include habitat restoration, habitat enhancement, habitat replacement, use of easements, annual and cyclic habitat management, purchase of water and water rights.
The distinction between this activity and the activities for restoring wetland, upland, riparian, and aquatic habitats and their natural processes (DOI activities 7F, 7G, 7J, and 7K) is the focus an a specific habitat for the plant or animal species, rather than on restoration of an ecosystem in general. Restoration of wetland, upland, riparian, and aquatic habitats and their natural processes is reported under DOI activities 7F, 7G, 7J, and 7K.

Actions can include off site conservation needs, or projects identified in recovery plans or conservation strategies. |
Includes actions identified in the implementation schedule of federally authorized recovery plans for Endangered Species Act (ESA) listed species and actions identified in conservation strategies for listed, proposed, candidate or sensitive species. Actions implemented must be specifically related to the species of concern and referenced in the recovery plan or conservation strategy. This work activity includes the collection, evaluation and reporting of species population information (including Special Status Species) necessary to determine if management decisions are being met. Actions include: hunting, fishing, and trapping regulations; grants to states and tribes; disease management, endangered species listing; endangered species recovery implementation; reintroductions; predictive population modeling; predator control/population reduction; subsistence programs (Alaska) nest structures, fish hatchery production, harvest of plants and animals for cultural and commercial purposes, fencing and enclosures; outreach, education and training.
This work activity also includes all labor and operating costs associated with documenting population status and trend, and recovery plan tasks or conservation strategy actions implemented. Do not include plan or strategy development.
Monitoring is different from inventory in that a specific hypothesis or question is tested (e.g., are population trends stable, declining or increasing?). For purposes of consistency, any site established for monitoring species populations will be considered a population (e.g., 180 bald eagle sites monitored is a more accurate reflection of the work, rather than reporting 1 population of bald eagles; 3 smolt traps in a basin to monitor Chinook salmon are counted as 3 sites, and hence 3 populations monitored).
Monitoring, inventory, or treatments that would normally be done for other reasons or for other programs should not be included here even if they occur in the same area of concern and may have positive effects for the species of concern. |

Number of acres restored/developed (whole numbers)
Acres treated should be calculated using the actual acres where the treatment was accomplished on the ground during the fiscal year rather than the total landscape affected. Acres should be determined using professionally accepted ground survey or aerial photography interpretation techniques. Field Offices should be careful not to duplicate reporting in other programs such as Rangeland Management, Wildlife Management, or Threatened and Endangered Species.
Do not report acres of reforestation or forest development accomplished under the terms of a timber sale contract. Report only the acres of treatment accomplished per service contract and/or Force Account project. For example, multiple service contracts in the same fiscal year - even if on the same piece of ground - will also be considered as individual treatments with the acres for each treatment being reported.
For BLM: Do not report Prescribed Fire Treatments funded by subactivity 2823; site preparation or slash disposal work is prohibited under subactivity 2823. Subactivity 2823 funded treatments should be reported as Fuel Management Treatments Implemented (DOI activity 1H).
