From the State Water Board’s Statewide Mercury Control Program for Reservoirs:
The Statewide Mercury Control Program for Reservoirs publically released the Summary of Responses from the Water Chemistry and Fisheries Management Questionnaire and Workshops.
The report summarizes statewide reservoir:
- physical characteristics
- water chemistry management (e.g. oxygenation, chemical controls)
- fisheries management activities (e.g. fish stocking, culling)
- owner’s preference for pilot test binning options
- owner’s financial and technical contributions towards coordinated pilot tests
- and a summary of discussions from workshops held in Fall 2017
Report is accessible on the Statewide Mercury Control Program for Reservoirs website: https://www.waterboards.ca.gov/water_issues/programs/mercury/reservoirs/
You are also invited to attend a series of free webinars on mercury in reservoirs hosted by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and California Water and Environmental Modeling Forum (CWEMF).
