KRIS Garcia River: Meta Information Page
This page contains detailed information about a data set in KRIS, including where the original data reside and how to contact the sources for the data. Data sets are linked to the appropriate page by means of the Meta Identifier. Many data sets can be linked to same page by sharing the same Meta Identifier.
Meta Identifier | TMDL |
Type of Data | EPA Garcia River Sediment Total Daily Maximum Load |
Originator | US Environmental Protection Agency |
Description | US Environmental Protection Agency Garcia River Sediment Total Daily Maximum Load (TMDL) allocations. The TMDL includes: an assessment of existing instream and upslope conditions; identification of instream numeric sediment targets; assessment of significant sediment sources; allocation of sediment loads. |
Area | Garcia River Watershed |

Lead Organization | IFR |
Data Set Name | sed_yield_sources_garcia_tmdl.db |
Purpose | Identify the necessary reductions of human-related delivery of sediment to the Garcia River system which will result in the improvement of channel conditions necessary to efficiently reduce instream sediment sources and provide adequate salmonid habitat. |
Data Quality Information | High for sediment budget and source analysis using existing data and aerial photos. |
Use Constraints | PWA (1997), on which the TMDL was based, note that sediment estimates are minimum values and that their analysis should be considered preliminary. |
