Maintenance
Instead, maintenance funding is often included along with other activities in departments’ operating budgets.
 

What is deferred maintenance?

When maintenance is delayed or does not occur, we refer to this as deferred maintenance. Defining and estimating the amount of deferred maintenance is often complicated because departments vary in what types of activities they consider maintenance. For example, some departments include as maintenance projects that are not traditionally considered as such—for example, energy and water efficiency upgrades, studies, and code compliance work. In contrast, other departments do not include such activities when identifying maintenance projects.
 

How much maintenance has the state deferred?

The state does not have a comprehensive inventory of the condition of its existing infrastructure. However, according to the administration’s 2018-19 estimate, the state has $67 billion in deferred maintenance, most of which is in the transportation area.

Chancroid (soft chancre)
Untreated chancroid often results in ulcers occurring on the genitals. Sometimes the ulcers persist for weeks or months.
Does past infection with chancroid make a person immune?
No. Reinfection can readily occur immediately after cure. There is no evidence of natural resistance.
What is the treatment for chancroid?
Chancroid may be successfully treated with certain antibiotics. Lesions and ulcers can be expected to heal within two weeks.
How can the spread of chancroid be prevented?

Limit the number of your sex partners.
Use a condom.
Carefully wash the genitals after sexual relations.
If you think you are infected, avoid any sexual contact and visit your local STD clinic, a hospital or your doctor. Notify all sexual contacts immediately so they can obtain examination and treatment.

MODIS

Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer

With its sweeping 2,330-km-wide viewing swath, MODIS sees every point on our world every 1-2 days in 36 discrete spectral bands. Consequently, MODIS tracks a wider array of the earth’s vital signs than any other Terra sensor. For instance, the sensor measures the percent of the planet’s surface that is covered by clouds almost every day. This wide spatial coverage enables MODIS, together with MISR and CERES, to help scientists determine the impact of clouds and aerosols on the Earth’s energy budget.
In addition to recording the frequency and distribution of cloud cover, MODIS measures the properties of clouds such as the distribution and size of cloud droplets in both liquid water and ice clouds. MODIS also measures the properties of aerosols—tiny liquid or solid particles in the atmosphere. Aerosols enter the atmosphere from manmade sources like pollution and biomass burning and natural sources like dust storms, volcanic eruptions, and forest fires. MODIS helps scientists determine the amount of water vapor in a column of the atmosphere and the vertical distribution of temperature and water vapor—measurements crucial to understanding Earth’s climate system.
MODIS is ideal for monitoring large-scale changes in the biosphere that are yielding new insights into the workings of the global carbon cycle. MODIS measures the photosynthetic activity of land and marine plants (phytoplankton) to yield better estimates of how much of the greenhouse gas is being absorbed and used in plant productivity.
Chancroid (soft chancre)
Chancroid is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by a bacterium. It is common in tropical countries but rare in other parts of the world.
Who gets chancroid?
Any sexually active person can be infected with chancroid. It is more commonly seen in men than in women, particularly uncircumcised males.
How is chancroid spread?
Chancroid is spread by sexual contact with an infected individual. The bacteria are more likely to invade the sexual organs at the point of a pre-existing injury, such as a small cut or scratch. The likelihood of transmission is greater if a person is very active sexually and does not practice personal hygiene.
What are the symptoms of chancroid?
The first sign of infection is usually the appearance of one or more sores or raised bumps on the genital organs. Sores are surrounded by a narrow red border which soon becomes filled with pus and eventually ruptures, leaving a painful open sore. In 50 percent of untreated cases, the chancroid bacteria infect the lymph glands in the groin. Within five to 10 days of the appearance of primary sores, the glands on one side (sometimes both sides) of the groin become enlarged, hard and painful. A rounded painful swelling results which may eventually rupture.
How soon do symptoms appear?
Symptoms usually appear four to seven days after exposure.
When and for how long is a person able to spread chancroid?
Chancroid is contagious as long as the infected person has any open sores. The open sores contain bacteria and any contact with these sores can result in infection.
What complications can result from chancroid?
Untreated chancroid often results in ulcers occurring on the genitals. Sometimes the ulcers persist for weeks or months.
Does past infection with chancroid make a person immune?
No. Reinfection can readily occur immediately after cure. There is no evidence of natural resistance.
What is the treatment for chancroid?
Chancroid may be successfully treated with certain antibiotics. Lesions and ulcers can be expected to heal within two weeks.
Sturgeon

Their mouth is also unique and is thought to have evolved separately from other fishes, forming a toothless, extendible tube that is good for sucking food items up off the bottom. Sturgeon have no teeth as adults, instead food is swallowed whole. Their diet usually includes bottom-dwelling crustaceans such as amphipods, shrimp, and crabs, as well as a variety of worms and fishes.

Sturgeon are large, very long-lived and late to mature. All sturgeon are migratory, typically spending most of their adult lives in estuaries, the lower reaches of rivers, or the ocean. They migrate upstream in large freshwater rivers to spawn in cool, deep, swift flowing river reaches over gravel and cobble bottoms. Sturgeon do not die after spawning like Pacific salmon, and the both species are capable of repeated migrations every 2-6 years.

Juvenile sturgeon remain in the river for a period of time before migrating to the estuary or bay.

Threats
Unfortunately, the life-history traits of sturgeon make them very vulnerable to human impacts. Fish ladders designed for salmon or shad are not effective at passing sturgeon, so dams and water diversions can impede migration and block ancestral spawning grounds. Changes to river hydrology can impact water quality, such as temperature or dissolved oxygen, which may particularly harm sensitive life-stages such as eggs or larvae. Changes to how rivers are managed can also degrade necessary spawning habitat by increasing siltation, covering the coarse gravel and cobble substrates that sturgeon require for spawning. Additionally, pollution from runoff, and predation or changes to the food web from introduced non-native species may impact these fishes. Sturgeon are frequently sought after in fisheries, both for their meat and for eggs for caviar. Because they are so slow to reproduce, they are very sensitive to overfishing and require careful management.

Status in California
Worldwide, sturgeon are considered the most threatened group of animals on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, with 85% species considered to be at risk of extinction. Of the species found in California, Green Sturgeon from the southern population were federally listed as threatened in 2006. Northern population Green Sturgeon and White Sturgeon are not state or federally listed, but they both are categorized as a state Species of Special Concern.
