Soil data was updated in 1999 in a report prepared by the TNC. GIS-Plant community data was available from layers produced by Humbolt SU. Some searching was done using this information and the results were not promising. This suggests that aerial photos, soil survey info and plant community data are not currently helpful because they lack adequate resolution. If the data were improved with greater resolution that might make searching more effecient. As part of the FERC relicensing process PacifiCorp had plant surveys done along the Klamath River from the outlet of Link River downstream to Iron Gate Dam. A new ASAP population was found near the shore of Keno Reservoir in section 23, T39S R8E. This new find suggests that more searching is perhaps warrented along the floodplain from Lake Ewauna to Keno. | |||||||||||

The survey was limited to public lands. A small population was found on the west side of Washburn Way where the railroad crosses the road across from AquaGlas. This site covers <1 acre and consists of about 100 mature plants located on both the north and south sides of the railroad tracks. An additional population was found in 2003 by consultants working for PacifiCorp. The new population was found near the shore of Keno Reservoir in S23 T 39S R8E. These new discoveries indicate that more searching could locate additional populations. In 2007 and 2008 additional searches were done and substantial new populations were found at Collins Products and the Klamath Falls airport. In 2008 we did a census of known sites and found a total of 30,000 mature plants. The largest populations were at the airport (20,000) and Collins Products (10,000). In 2009 a new site was discovered near the west shore of Lake Ewauna in the Greensprings area of Klamath Falls. 600 plants were found in two patches. Not all of the area has been surveyed. | |||||||||||

Plants were sucessfully raised to flowering size. Potting mixes contained soil collected from around the roots of wild plants to ensure the soil contained nitrogen-fixing myccorrhizal fungi and Rhizobium bacteria. This technique has proved effective and in 2002, 170 day-old plants were out-planted. More propagation by ODA was funded in 2005. Those efforts were unsucessful because of damp off disease, so new efforts were made in 2011 in Klamath Falls. | |||||||||||

Follow-up monitoring showed that mortality was high owing to herbivory and possibly water stress from drought. Additional outplanting will likely occur in 2006 or 2007. No site has been selected but it could be Miller Island. No outplanting was done in 2006 or 2007 because no additional plants were propagated. Based on on-going efforts to propagate the plants, the earliest time for outplanting would be in 2013. | |||||||||||

The review was completed in 2009. In July 2009 a recovery meeting was held at the TNC office in Medford. From that meeting it was determined that we need to begin experimentally assessing the status of weeds that are a threat to ASAP and experiment with control methods for weeds. No futher work has been done on this issue. | |||||||||||

In a brief examaination within one exclosure in 2009, many seedlings were seen. | |||||||||||

The most recent monitoring was in 2007. TNC noted that they found seedlings in 2006. In 2008 a complete census was made at ASAP sites at the airport, Collins Products, Worden, and Miller Island. As a result it was determined that the approximate populate size is 30,000 mature plants. | |||||||||||

The seeds are banked at Berry Bontanic Garden in Portland. No germination tests have been done to our knowledge. Since the banked seeds have come from only one population it would be advisable to collect seeds from additional populations for banking. In 2008, large numbers of seeds were collected at the washburn Way site and at Miller Island. | |||||||||||
