Sites were sampled monthly for multiple constituents. Lab analysis was conducted on water samples to determine the type of possible impairment and toxicity. CCWQP continued to assist growers with on-farm sampling.CCWQP also prepared to begin monitoring 4000 (groundwater) wells, and to collect and report fertilizer and water application data from growers (preparation took place in 2021; monitoring and reporting began in early 2022). 150205 Outreach, Education and Water Quality Reports:CCWQP held meetings or participated in meetings with farmers in the region. Meetings were held in Santa Cruz, Monterey, San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties. Education materials were designed to provide farmers with information relevant to their sub-watershed. Numerous water quality reports and presentations were prepared and delivered to public and government agencies. Additional meeting were held to provide farmers with information on new compliance requirements due to updates to the region's Irrigated Lands Regulatory Program, and information on how to report fertilizer and water application data.
