Categorization Of Shellfish Tmdl Sites Final Report, Julie Herman, Carl Hershner, Howard Kator Jun 2003

Categorization Of Shellfish Tmdl Sites Final Report, Julie Herman, Carl Hershner, Howard Kator

Reports

There were two important goals for this project, including the assembly and compilation of digital data for the Coastal Plain and tidal waters of Virginia, and the categorization of the Division of Shellfish Sanitation (DSS) shellfish growing areas to determine if some are similar enough for water quality models to be effectively transferred from the modeled growing areas to other areas. This report summarizes the data and statistical analyses and discusses the results. Note: The digital data has a very fine resolution. The maps displayed in this report cannot convey this information on 8.5x11" paper. All digital data layers (shape …

Initiating The Development Of A Forested Depressional Wetland Hgm Model For The Coastal Plain Of Virginia., Kirk J. Havens, David O'Brien, David Stanhope, Rebecca Thomas, Gene Silberhorn

Reports

This report encompasses the initial development of a WDW model up to the preliminary development stage and serves as an initial framework for a WDW model for the coastal plain of Virginia. These results can serve as a foundation for subsequent studies to complete the development of the model.

Reports

The Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) participated in the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) National Coastal Assessment (NCA) in 2003. As in the previous three years, the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) through EPA grant funds contracted VIMS to collect fish at pre-determined stations. Data on invertebrate community structure and bottom habitat were collected also. VIMS’ responsibilities included collection, documentation and verification of all data and the storage of samples for future delivery to DEQ.
