DACs - Census

The following data were used for the Department of Water Resources' (DWR) Disadvantaged Communities (DAC) Mapping Tool: https://gis.water.ca.gov/app/dacs/.  The data source is from the US Census (American Community Survey), that may include attribute table additions by DWR. 
The DAC Mapping Tool was designed, and the related datasets made publicly available, to assist in the evaluation of DACs throughout the state, as may relate to the various Grant Programs within the Financial Assistance Branch (FAB) at DWR.  The definition of DAC may vary by grant program (within FAB, DWR or grant programs of other public agencies).  As such, users should be familiar with the specific requirements for meeting DAC status, based on the particular grant solicitation/program of interest.

Toxics Release Inventory (TRI)

 The Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) is a dataset compiled by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). It contains information on the release and waste management for over 800 toxic chemicals and toxic chemical categories as reported annually by facilities in certain industries as well as federal facilities.  This inventory was established under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986 (EPCRA) and expanded by the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990. TRI data support informed decision-making by communities, government agencies, industries, and others.

Major Land Uses

ERS has been a source of major land use estimates in the United States for over 50 years, and the related U.S. cropland used for crops series dates back to 1910. The Major Land Uses (MLU) series is the longest running, most comprehensive accounting of all major uses of public and private land in the United States. The series was started in 1945, and has since been published about every 5 years, coinciding with the Census of Agriculture. See the latest report in the series, Major Uses of Land in the United States, 2007.
 
Data from all 14 Major Land Uses reports have been combined into a set of files showing major land use estimates by region and State from 1945 to 2007. Alaska and Hawaii were added in 1959, when they achieved Statehood. Since Alaska contains such vast acreage, 50-State totals in all categories prior to 1959 may appear to change precipitously.

EnviroAtlas - Percent Agriculture on Hydric Soil for the Conterminous United States

This EnviroAtlas dataset contains data on Agricultural Land Coverage on Hydric Soils for each Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD) 12-Digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC-12) of the conterminous United States. This is based on the October 2023 Natural Resources Conservation Service gridded Service Soil Survey Geographic Database and gridded National Soil Survey Geographic Databased (NRCS gSSURGO and gNATSGO), the 2021 National Land Cover Database (NLCD) and the 2020 Cropland Data Layer (CDL). 
The hydric soils are determined based on whether hydric soils make up 80% or more of a mapunit's components. The raster was made binary, where the mapunit's with at least 80% hydric soil coverage were assigned a value of 1. This was then intersected with a 30-m raster that combines the NLCD and CDL resources, where the CDL provides more exact and detailed agricultural land coverage. This layer does not include the NLCD class Pasture/Hay as agricultural lands. 

This dataset was produced by the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas. EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas) allows the user to interact with a web-based, easy-to-use, mapping application to view and analyze multiple ecosystem services for the contiguous United States. The dataset is available as downloadable data (https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/EnviroAtlas) or as an EnviroAtlas map service. Additional descriptive information about each attribute in this dataset can be found in its associated EnviroAtlas Fact Sheet (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas/enviroatlas-fact-sheets).

National Status and Trends: Mussel Watch Program

Mussel Watch is the longest running continuous chemical contaminant monitoring program in U.S. coastal and Great Lakes waters and was created in response to concerns over environmental quality of the Nation's coastal and estuarine ecosystems. The Program analyzes chemical and biological contaminant trends in sediment and bivalve tissue collected at over 300 coastal sites from 1986 to present. Parameters monitored include over 150 organic and inorganic contaminants, in sediment and bivalve tissue and bivalve histology; and Clostridium perfringens (pathogen) concentrations. Some of the chemicals regularly quantified include: PAHs, PCBs, chlorinated pesticides including DDT and its metabolites, TBT and its metabolites, major andtrace elements. In addition to the aforementioned legacy contaminants, new contaminants of Emerging Concern (CECs) such as flame retardant polybrominated biphnyl ethers (PBDEs) and pharmaceutics are being analyzed.

cp_387-20190408T0135-delayed

The Pioneer Array is located on the continental shelf and slope south of Martha's Vineyard. The shelf-slope area is home to a highly productive ecosystem, and coincident with a persistent ocean frontal system where heat, salt, nutrients and other properties are exchanged between the shelf and the deep ocean. Data from gliders operating over the shelf contribute to understanding of the frontal system while those over the slope provide information about mesoscale features that may impinge on the front. This dataset contains raw Slocum glider data parsed directly from the native glider file format. No corrections or other quality control algorithms have been applied.

Control Performance Of Amphibian Metamorphosis Assays With Xenopus Laevis

This paper presents data from studies performed to satisfy test orders from the US EPA’s Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program. Data Evaluation Records were used to collate the control variability and performance of biological endpoints in AMAs conducted in different laboratories, then supplemented with additional recent studies. We examine the statistical power of AMA endpoint analysis and assess whether historical control data (HCD) can assist evidence-based interpretation of the endpoints, with 52 studies from 7 different laboratories.

Census Tract EQI

The Environmental Quality Index (EQI) accounts for the multiple domains of the environment with which humans interact. These domains include chemical, natural, built, and sociodemographic environments that have both positive and negative influences on health. An overall EQI was created for census tracts within the contiguous United States for 2006-2010 and 2011-2015. Provided data sets include full EQI for 2006-2010 and 20011-2015, variables used to create the census tract EQI, as well as links to maps of the data.

Utah FORGE 10-3726: Geothermal Multiset Straddle for High Temperature Applications - 2025 Workshop Presentation

This is a presentation on the Geothermal Multiset Straddle (GMS) for High Temperature Applications by Welltec, presented by Ricardo Vasques. This video slide presentation discusses the development of (1) an annular multiset isolation system; (2) a stimulation straddle isolation system; and (3) a multi open-close flow system, for geothermal environments. This is to enable effective zonal isolation and stimulation with multiset capabilities, to implement downhole controlled EGS in any location, and to extend the productive life of the well. This presentation was featured at the Utah FORGE R&D Annual Workshop on September 10, 2025. The workshop offered a valuable opportunity to review the progress of Research and Development projects funded under Solicitation 2022-2, which aim to improve our understanding of the key factors influencing Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) reservoir and resource development.
