CA Water Quality Monitoring Council

The California Water Quality Monitoring Council was created in 2007 to coordinate water quality and related ecosystem monitoring, assessment, and reporting.

#CesarChavezDay March 31st marks the last day of #marchiswaterdatamonth. To celebrate we want to highlight the Viz of Visualizations created by @bevlikeabbs. It shows that a lot of innovative work has being done in CA and there is a lot still to be done, but together #SiSePuede

Have a fun and safe Memorial Day.

Mother's Day is coming up and unfortunately, a lot of balloons end up in our ocean, harming wildlife and adding to the plastic pollution epidemic. #balloonfreeseas

For Californians to respond more effectively to extreme weather, like the storms that recently pummeled the state, we need better data. @CAWaterData’s new report makes 6 recommendations to improve #WaterDataand build climate resilience https://t.co/mtUzmMrHoW #CAwater

Is #microplastics a concern? You'll be glad to know the Water Board has approved an environmental lab accreditation program - the 1st such in the world - for microplastics testing in drinking water! Program a key step to helping protect public health.

Today AB 2108 was signed into law! The law will require the @CaWaterBoards to evaluate the disproportionate impacts #cawater policies and permits have on #environmentaljustice and #Tribal communities, plus remove barriers so those communities can participate in policy making.

Honored to have the endorsement of @NancySkinnerCA, who provides critical leadership across the Bay Area and state as the vice-chair of the Democratic Legislative Women's Caucus and as an energy and climate change trailblazer.

Another heat wave is poised to strike the West Coast at the end of the Month. More details as to how strong/weak the heat wave will be, won't be known until later this weekend. Enjoy the cooler weather in the meantime for the next 7 to 10 days, but this is something to watch!!

[Sara Aminzadeh @saraminzadeh]

Lower income and historically marginalized communities disproportionately bear the burden of pollution, limited water supplies, and extreme heat. For example, studies show that communities of color can be on average, five degrees hotter than predominantly white communities.

Extraordinary images of #MosquitoFire this evening. This one is going to be burning & producing large volumes of smoke for many days, so folks in NorCal and western Nevada should prepare for a potentially prolonged period of smoke-related air quality impacts. #CAwx #NVwx #CAfire

This is a great thread from the author of a really nice piece on beavers. Never enough of these stories. Having just discovered them during a project this past year, I'm sold. Thanks @CatrinEinhorn and all the beaver believers out there. https://t.co/bUh50E4chm

The coming week is shaping up to be a pretty crazy weather week in California, TBH--even more so than previously thought. Ongoing heatwave expected to be longer & peak even higher, & now we have potential influence of a soon-to develop hurricane to consider. (1/n) #CAwx #CAfire

[Daniel Swain @Weather_West]

In addition to extreme/record heat risk (which will further increase into Mon/Tue after a slight lull), the long range models continue to hint at the potential for California to possibly be in the path of some remnant moisture from a former tropical storm in 7-10 days. (1/2)#CAwx

Due to high heat and forecasted energy demand across the state, the power grid operator issued a Heat Bulletin to prepare consumers for #FlexAlerts, especially on 9/4 & 9/5. https://t.co/kVLNk4w3l5
