Placer County

The County began the implementation of its portion of the Phase 1 components during the 2010 water year (October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2010). Phase 1 activities were limited by available funding to a set of select monitoring activities in the Bear, Squaw and Martis Creek watersheds. The activities performed during the first year included:

This Joint Annual Monitoring Report describes the monitoring activities performed by Placer County and the Town of Truckee during WY 2011 and presents their results. Data collection activities during this second year of the TRWQMP’s implementation included:

• Tributary level discrete water quality sampling within the Martis Creek watershed, and
• Continuous discharge monitoring on Martis Creek.

No rapid assessments or bioassessments were performed during WY 2011.
