Central Valley Regional Water Board staff provided a demonstration of Aquatic Science Center’s Central Valley Monitoring Directory. The monitoring directory is a web-based tool developed to help
improve the coordination and integration of existing surface water monitoring efforts. The monitoring directory provides access to program details and metadata for current water quality monitoring
efforts in the Central Valley watershed (Delta, San Joaquin River, Sacramento River and Tulare Lake Basins). Currently, the monitoring directory has information on 31 programs monitoring at 1,088 sites.
A demonstration to the California Water Quality Monitoring Council is planned for the Council’s April
meeting and there is interest to use the tool statewide.
