This Well Completion Report geospatial dataset represents an index to a subset of records available from the California Department of Water Resources' (DWR) Online System for Well Completion Reports (OSWCR). This version of the release contains data from about 255,000 well completion reports (WCRs) for water supply wells from Amador, Butte, Calaveras, Colusa, El Dorado, Glenn, Kern, Kings, Merced, Monterey, Nevada, Placer, Riverside, Sacramento, San Benito, San Bernardino, San Luis Obispo, San Joaquin, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Shasta, Stanislaus, Sutter, Tehama, Tulare, and Yuba counties. A subset of WCRs for wells that are not water supply wells also are included. The California Groundwater Ambient Monitoring and...
This Well Completion Report geospatial dataset represents an index to a subset of records available from the California Department of Water Resources' (DWR) Online System for Well Completion Reports (OSWCR). This release contains water supply well records from Amador, Calaveras, El Dorado, Nevada, Placer, Sacramento, San Bernardino, Sutter, and Yuba counties. The USGS California Water Science Center GAMA project has provided additional attributes: top of open interval; number of open intervals; and various other identifiers such as public supply well number and USGS site number where they can be identified. In some cases, locations are georeferenced to finer resolution based on county APN or 911 geospatial datasets....

The U.S. Geological Survey collected groundwater samples from 537 domestic wells for pharmaceutical compounds between 2014 and 2021 from 9 different study units. These wells were sampled as part of the California State Water Resources Control Board Groundwater Ambient Monitoring and Assessment (GAMA) Program Priority Basin Project’s assessment of the quality of groundwater resources used for domestic drinking water supply. The 9 study units are in parts of the San Joaquin Valley, Sacramento Valley, Sierra Nevada Foothills, and the Southern California Desert basins where domestic wells are extensively used for drinking water supply. The well selection for the study units were selected by using a grid-based approach...

The U.S. Geological Survey National Water Information System (NWIS) data archive contains publicly available water-quality data for approximately 20,000 groundwater wells and springs in California. This data release publishes site type information and a generalized use classification for the sites. The generalized use category is derived from, but is not equivalent to, the use of site and use of water fields from the NWIS data archive. The use of site and use of water fields in the NWIS data archive are not publicly available. The 20,000 groundwater wells and springs were categorized as into seven generalized use categories: 1) domestic, 2) irrigation, 3) production, 4) water supply, other, 5) observation, 6) other,...

The California Groundwater Ambient Monitoring and Assessment Program Priority Basin Project (GAMA-PBP) submitted 2,994 samples in 2004-2018 to the USGS National Water Quality Laboratory (NWQL) for analysis of pesticide constituents on NWQL schedules 2003, 2032, or 2033, and 840 samples in 2004-2011 for analysis of pesticide constituents on NWQL schedule 2060. Fram and Stork (2019) describe the GAMA-PBP data quality objectives for pesticide constituents and present a 5-step protocol for review and quality-control censoring of data from these NWQL schedules. This data release presents the original and final values for the 1,056 results censored by Fram and Stork (2019) and the entire final dataset for pesticide constituents...

ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
