This subgroup will propose an Agricultural Monitoring Strategy, including scientific framework, implementation plan, and funding approach. The subgroup will meet approximately bi-monthly and its materials, draft reports, and meeting agendas and summaries will be posted on this webpage. Specifically, this subgroup is expected to:

 

  • Review the small streams and nearshore status and trends monitoring parameter lists and consider adding agricultural pesticides and or other parameters for analysis at status and trends sites located outside Urban Growth Area (UGA) boundaries.
  • Design a regional source identification and diagnostic monitoring strategy for agricultural issues.
  • Design effectiveness studies for agricultural BMPs.
  • Describe how the monitoring might be funded and conducted (implementation plan).
