DCP Recreation Facilities Condition and Demand Assessment

The DCP Recreation Facilities Condition and Demand Assessment Study is one of many relicensing documents for the Devil Canyon Project (DCP) Hydropower Project Number 14797. The California Department of Water Resources applied to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for a new license of the DCP Project located in San Bernardino County, California along the East Branch of the State Water Project (SWP). The SWP provides southern California with many benefits, including an affordable water supply, reliable regional clean energy, opportunities to integrate green energy, accessible public recreation opportunities, and environmental benefits.

Bank Swallow Range - CWHR B342 [ds606]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P STYLE="margin:0 0 14 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>Vector datasets of CWHR range maps are one component of California Wildlife Habitat Relationships (CWHR), a comprehensive information system and predictive model for California's wildlife. The CWHR System was developed to support habitat conservation and management, land use planning, impact assessment, education, and research involving terrestrial vertebrates in California. CWHR contains information on life history, management status, geographic distribution, and habitat relationships for wildlife species known to occur regularly in California. Range maps represent the maximum, current geographic extent of each species within California. They were originally delineated at a scale of 1:5,000,000 by species-level experts and have gradually been revised at a scale of 1:1,000,000. For more information about CWHR, visit the CWHR webpage (</SPAN><A href="https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/Data/CWHR" STYLE="text-decoration:underline;"><SPAN>https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/Data/CWHR</SPAN></A><SPAN>). The webpage provides links to download CWHR data and user documents such as a look up table of available range maps including species code, species name, and range map revision history; a full set of CWHR GIS data; .pdf files of each range map or species life history accounts; and a User Guide.</SPAN></SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

Recovery Strategy for California Coho Salmon, Coho Tasks Database - 2004

The Coho Tasks Database contains the Implementation Tasks from tables 9.1, 9.2, and 9.3 of the Recovery Strategy for California Coho Salmon (2004). The data was normalized and cross-referenced to Calwater 2.2.1 watershed units. Some updates were performed in 2005 and are noted in the data.

The database contains a set of related tables primarily related to the TASK table. The TASK table includes a description of the activity to perform. The PRIORITY table contains the description of the coded TASK.PRIORITY column. Similarly, the LEVEL table contains the description for the coded TASK.LEVEL column. The TASK_FOOTNOTE table is a many-to-many bridge between the TASK and FOOTNOTE tables. This captures the footnotes for tasks from the original document. Finally, the TASK_CALW contains the mapping of TASK records to Calwater 2.2.1 records. A task may be mapped to zero or more TASK_CALW records.

This data and metadata were submitted by California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) Staff though the Data Management Plan (DMP) framework with the id: DMP000714. For more information, please visit https://wildlife.ca.gov/Data/Sci-Data.

Elk Home Range - North Warners - 2019-2021 [ds3175]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The project lead for the collection of this data was Erin Zulliger. Elk (7 adult females) were captured and equipped with GPS collars (Litetrack/Pinpoint Iridium collars, Lotek Wireless Inc., Newmarket, Ontario, Canada or Vectronic Aerospace) transmitting data from 2019-2021. The North Warners herd does not migrate between traditional summer and winter seasonal ranges. Therefore, annual home ranges were modeled using year-round data to demarcate high use areas in lieu of modeling the specific winter ranges commonly seen in other ungulate analyses in California. GPS locations were fixed at 1-13 hour intervals in the dataset. To improve the quality of the data set, the GPS data locations fixed in 2D space and visually assessed as a bad fix by the analyst were removed.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The methodology used for this migration analysis allowed for the mapping of the herd’s annual range. Brownian bridge movement models (BBMMs; Sawyer et al. 2009) were constructed with GPS collar data from 5 elk, including 10 annual home range sequences, location, date, time, and average location error as inputs in Migration Mapper. BBMMs were produced at a spatial resolution of 50 m using a sequential fix interval of less than 27 hours. Home range is visualized as the 50th percentile contour (high use) and the 99th percentile contour of the year-round utilization distribution. Annual home range designations for this herd may expand with a larger sample.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

This dataset does not contain major State or Federal canals. The original data were from many sources including NHD,USBR,DWR,and contained errors in the attributes and locations. These errors were rectified by Jeff Galef of DWR Delta Levees Special Investigations Branch, using 2005 and 2006 NAIP imagery and Central Valley Aerials Express. These updates were as of 2009. Conflicts between this original data source and any new linework added was resolved using NAIP imagery from 2012. Digitizing was done at approximately 1:9000 scale. Many unnamed canals were identified using USGS topo maps and ESRI Street Map. Additional canal features were added in November 2017 which were inadvertently not included in the initial dataset.</span>

ACE addresses both terrestrial and aquatic data.

Vegetation - Oak Grove - San Diego County - 2011 [ds712]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The California Department of Fish and Wildlife Vegetation Classification and Mapping Program (VegCAMP) created a fine-scale vegetation classification and map of the Department's Oak Grove property, San Diego County, California following FGDC and National Vegetation Classification Standards. The vegetation classification was derived from floristic field survey data collected in the field in May 2010 and was based on previously described Alliances and Associations. The map was produced using true-color 2009 1-meter National Agricultural Imagery Program (NAIP) imagery as the base. Supplemental imagery including 2005 1-meter California Color Infrared (CIR) and true-color 1-foot aerial imagery available through GlobeXplorer ImageConnect were also used. The minimum mapping unit (MMU) is one acre, with the exception of wetland types, which were sometimes mapped to ½ acre. Field verification of 45 percent of the mapped polygons was conducted in June 2011; in combination with the 2010 sampling effort, 83 percent of the polygons were verified in the field.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

Utility Solar Generation Regions: 2022

The map depicts Solar Generation Regions of California, which 
are regions with concentrations of operating commercial solar 
plants. The regions were delineated using a k-means method 
that groups the plants into discreet regions based on their 
latitude, longitude and distance to the coast. After facilities 
were grouped, the outermost facilities in each region were 
connected to create the boundaries for each region. To include 
all facilities inside each polygon, a 5 km cartographic buffer was 
used. Plants that are farther from a concentration of other 
plants are not included. Areas outside California included in the 
regions are the result of the mapping process and do not 
represent solar generation facilities. Based on the Quarterly 
Fuel and Energy Report dataset, this map focuses on plants of 
commercial scale (at least 1 MW capacity).
