Completed! Legacy datasets saved from the shelves and uploaded to estuary-wide data repository

SFEI worked in partnership with the Delta Conservancy to complete a two year project funded by a USEPA National Environmental Information Exchange Network (NEIN) grant to expand the existing San Francisco Bay Regional Data Center (RDC) to include the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and Suisun Marsh (Delta) for an estuary-wide data repository. SFEI received Delta data from public and private sector sources ranging from scientists, environmental program staff, managers, the public and other stakeholders. SFEI worked with Delta data providers to harmonize their data for improved interoperability. Once Delta data were included in the RDC, it was shared with the California Environmental Data Exchange Network (CEDEN) and in turn EPA’s Water Quality Exchange (WQX). The expanded RDC will ensure broad dissemination of data to support the state’s mandated reforms to the Delta’s water resources and ecological management.

Over 160 Delta datasets were uploaded to the RDC as part of this project. The table below provides a summary of the Delta datasets and includes the data provider, project name, a description of the project and the years that monitoring was conducted. Results include samples collected for water, effluent, sediment, tissue and toxicity. These data are now available through SFEI’s RDC (more info below), CEDEN and WQX as a product of the DEDUCE project:

Sacramento Regional County Sanitation District	Sacramento Regional County Sanitation District’s Coordinated Monitoring Program	Sacramento Regional County Sanitation District’s (SacSan) Coordinated Monitoring Program (CMP) monitored five sites along the Sacramento and American Rivers. Water samples were collected 4-12 times per year during the time period of 1991-2015.	1991-2015
California Department of Pesticide Regulation	Department of Pesticide Regulation Surface Water Monitoring	The Department of Pesticide Regulation’s (DPR) Surface Water Protection Program protects human health and the environment by preventing pesticides from adversely affecting our surface waters, by addressing both agricultural and nonagricultural sources of pesticide residues in surface waters.	1991-2016

The project's 160 datasets included multiple analytes and test materials. You can find them on CD3. Each of the listed datasets are potentially associated with multiple analyte groups. To access them, you may map, chart, or download the raw data. For the latter, plug into the Direct Download Tool, the appropriate project name:
