KRIS Russian 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 | SWRCB_TWA |
Type of Data | Water rights applications and permits |
Originator | SWRCB Division of Water Rights |
Description | Data from surface water appropriation permit files maintained by the California State Water Resources Control Board for all surface water appropriation permits issued by the Board in Sonoma and Mendocino Counties through 3/22/01 and al surface water appropriation permit applications pending in Sonoma County as of 3/22/01were compiled by the Watershed Associate (Napa, CA) with a grant from the Mennen Environmental Foundation, San Francisco, CA. Data include maximum allowable diversion, maximum allowable storage, diversion period and purpose, but not all these data are available for each record reported by SWRCB. |

Maint. and Update Freq. | complete |
Purpose | To examine current and potential diversions from streams in Mendocino and Sonoma counties. |
Data Quality Information | Data were collected from documents at the SWRCB Division of Water Rights; methods for determining max. diversions and storage are unknown |
Use Constraints | Data should not be used to quantify actual flow, diversion or storage in individual streams. |
Supplemental Information | Riparian owners may appropriate and use surface water under a claim of riparian right and are not required apply for an appropriation permit or to notify the SWRCB of the quantity of water diverted or used. Since many riparian owners do not file a "Statement of Use" with the State Water Resources Control Board, this report does not include surface water diversions under claim of riparian right. |

Abstract | This report presents selected data from the surface water appropriation permit files maintained by the California State Water Resources Control Board for all surface water appropriation permits issued by the Board in Mendocino County through 3/22/01 and all surface water appropriation permit applications pending in Mendocino County as of 3/22/01. The research presented here was completed on 6/30/01. Permit applications with a date in either the "Permit Date" or "License Date" column are issued. Applications with no date in the "Permit Date" column are pending, and confer no right to appropriate or use surface water. The values for "maximum direct diversion" and "maximum storage annually" provide are "not to exceed" values. Actual use could be less than these values. |
