EPAs Vision for STORET and the Role of STORET in Water Quality Management Programs

Agency information efforts Office of Water information efforts Water Quality Monitoring program and STORET Ongoing STORET work

Agency Information Efforts

Office of Water Information Efforts

Business analysis Data “classes” OW business need for monitoring data and information Decision that STORET is the sole database for monitoring data –Migration of data OW commitment to STORET

Water Quality Monitoring Programs

How many of you organizationally sit in Water Monitoring Programs?

Why are Water Monitoring Programs important? Feedback on water quality management decisions

How are Water Monitoring Programs changing? Shared data and information Requires metadata Decisions using monitoring data have legal implications

New Guidance Documents 2002 Integrated Reporting Guidance CALM (Consolidated Assessment and Listing Methodology) Elements of a State Monitoring Program

The Elements of a State Monitoring Program Monitoring Program Strategy Quality Assurance Monitoring Objectives Monitoring Design Core Indicators of Water Quality Data Management Data Analysis/Assessment (CALM) Reporting Programmatic Evaluation General Support and Infrastructure

Office of Water memo: EPA contracts will require use of STORET, and grant requirements will be phased in.

States use section 106 and 319 grants to upload monitoring data.

Ongoing STORET Work Some data-providing organizations are unable to run STORET locally. Need all available water quality monitoring data Goal: –Create alternative process for States and other organizations to send monitoring data to OW

STORET Pilot Project Advisory Committee on Water Information (ACWI) water quality data standard – Develop XML schema Send data through CDX to STORET –Participants: NM, VA, OR, FL, USGS Test with two states early next year
