Description: The division line is the eastern edge of the Montecito basin and western edge of the Carpinteria basin. The modification aligns the basins with the current Montecito Water District and the Carpinteria Valley Water District service area boundaries. The remaining boundaries of the respective basins are similar to the USGS Bulletin 118 2016 versions.
Description: The dataset is a feature class showing the boundaries of 517 groundwater basins and subbasins as defined by the California Department of Water Resources as last modified by the Basin Boundary Emergency Regulation adopted on October 21, 2015. The file is in ESRI geodatabase format and is intended for use with compatible GIS software. Groundwater basins are represented as polygon features and designated on the basis of geological and hydrological conditions - usually the occurrence of alluvial or unconsolidated deposits. When practical, large basins are also subdivided by political boundaries, as in the Central Valley. Basins are named and numbered per the convention of the Department of Water Resources. The associated data are considered DWR enterprise GIS data, which meet all appropriate requirements of the DWR GIS Spatial Data Standards. DWR makes no warranties or guarantees, either expressed or implied, as to the completeness, accuracy or correctness of the data, nor accepts or assumes any liability arising from or for any incorrect, incomplete or misleading subject data. The official DWR GIS Data Steward for this dataset is Brett Wyckoff, who may be contacted at 916-651-9283, or at brett.wyckoff@water.ca.gov. Comments, problems, improvements, updates, or suggestions should be forwarded to the official GIS Data Steward as available and appropriate.

Description: ***** BACKGROUND *****In late 1996, the Dept of Conservation (DOC) surveyed state and federal agencies about the county boundary coverage they used. As a result, DOC adopted the 1:24,000 (24K) scale U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) dataset (USGS source) for their Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program (FMMP) but with several modifications. Detailed documentation of these changes is provided by FMMP and included in the lineage section of the metadata. A dataset named cnty24k97_1 was made available (approximately 2004) through the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection - Fire and Resource Assessment Program (CDF - FRAP) and the California Spatial Information Library (CaSIL). In late 2006, the Department of Fish and Game (DFG) reviewed cnty24k97_1. Comparisons were made to a high-quality 100K dataset (co100a/county100k from the former Teale Data Center GIS Solutions Group) and legal boundary descriptions from ( http://www.leginfo.ca.gov ). The cnty24k97_1 dataset was missing Anacapa and Santa Barbara islands. DFG added the missing islands using previously-digitized coastline data (coastn27 of State Lands Commission origin), corrected a few county boundaries, built region topology, added additional attributes, and renamed the dataset to county24k. In 2007, the California Mapping Coordinating Committee (CMCC) requested that the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) resume stewardship of the statewide county boundaries data. CAL FIRE adopted the changes made by DFG and collected additional suggestions for the county data from DFG, DOC, and local government agencies. CAL FIRE incorporated these suggestions into the latest revision, which has was renamed cnty24k09_1. ***** THIS VERSION*****This version of the county dataset was created as a result of an effort to improve the coastal linework. It uses the previous interior linework from the cnty24k13_1 data, but replaces the coastal linework (including islands and inlets) based on NOAA's ERMA coastal dataset (which used NAIP 2010). In addition to the improved linework, additional coding was added to differentiate inlets and bays, islands, and manmade structures such as piers and breakers. This dataset is one of several available datasets that were created as a group designed to work in topological sync with each other. These "paired" datasets include a basic county dataset (cnty18_1_basic), a basic state dataset (state18_1), an ocean dataset (ocean18_1), and country/state datasets (both full and neighbor-only - cntrystate18_1_full and cntrystate18_1_neighbor, respectively). Further details about these paired datasets can be found in their respective metadata. This specific dataset represents the full detailed county dataset with all coding (islands, inlets, constructed features, etc). The user has the freedom to use this coding to create definition queries, symbolize, or dissolve to create a more generalized dataset as needed.In November 2015, the dataset was adjusted to include a change in the Yuba-Placer county boundary from 2010 that was not yet included in the 14_1 version of the dataset (ord No 5546-B). This change constitutes the diffrence between the 15_1 and 14_1 versions of this dataset.In March 2018, the dataset was adjusted to include a legal boundary change between Santa Clara and Santa Cruz Counties (December 11, 1998) as stated in Resolution No. 98-11 (Santa Clara) and Resolution No. 432-98 (Santa Cruz). This change constitutes the diffrence between the 18_1 and 15_1 versions of this dataset.

The boundary was clipped at the Yucca Barrier. The yucca barrier was digitized from Figure 12 “Water-level elevations in Warren Valley basin, spring 1969” on page 35 of “Ground-water resources of the Yucca Valley-Joshua Tree area, San Bernardino County, California”.

Description: The dataset is a feature class showing any changes that were made to the boundaries of the original groundwater basins and subbasins as defined by the California Department of Water Resources (Bulletin 118, 2003). Groundwater basins are represented as polygon features. Changes may have been made to certain lines only and not the entire basin. Lines that may have been changed were areas where the description stated that the basin boundary followed a stream or river course or a county boundary. These changes were termed as administrative edits. Update 5/25/2018: The Paso Robles Subbasin boundary has been modified by NPage (GSI Water Solutions) to show the proposed BBMR as specified in the May 2018 TECHNICAL REPORT PASO ROBLES AREA SUBBASIN No. 3-004.06 BASIN BOUNDARY MODIFICATION APPLICATION

Description: Metadata not provided with Bulletin 118 (v2016) download. Copied from download site:The Final 2016 Basin Boundary Modifications were developed through DWR's technical review of basin boundary modification requests and public comment made during the submission period, January 1, 2016 through March 31, 2016. DWR then held a series of public meetings to present the Draft Approved Basin Boundary Modifications, provide an overview of the BBMRS and technical review process, answer clarifying questions and receive further public comments on the Draft Approved Basin Boundary Modification submissions. After a technical review of the requests and public comments, DWR developed the list of 2016 Final Basin Boundary Modifications. The new basin boundaries will be included in the interim update of Bulletin 118, due January 1, 2017. Following the formation of GSAs, another basin boundary modification request period may be held in 2018, based on demand from local agencies and or GSAs. 20171004 - Bulletin 118 (v2016) boundary modified to make North Yuba Subbasin and South Yuba Subbasin coincident with FRAP (v2015) county boundary defintion along the Sutter County/Yuba County boundary. Elsewhere B118 (v2016) boundary was left unchanged.20180109- Extended north and south subbasins to include portions of Ramirez WD and Dry Creek MWC that extend into neighboring Butte and Sutter counties respectively.20180227- Extended eastern edge of North Yuba Subbasin to the alluvium/volcanic contact as depicted in the USGS 250k Chico Geologic Quad. This was done to match the extension of the South Yuba Subbasin to the same contact line in the 2016 release of the Bulletin 118 groundwater basin delineations.
