KRIS Garcia River: Meta Information Page
This page contains detailed information about a data set in KRIS, including where the original data reside and how to contact the sources for the data. Data sets are linked to the appropriate page by means of the Meta Identifier. Many data sets can be linked to same page by sharing the same Meta Identifier.
Meta Identifier | thp_roads |
Type of Data | Roads for the Garcia River Basin and adjacent coastal Calwater Planning Watersheds |

Notes | Data obtained from CDF Santa Rosa along with timber harvest plan data. |
Data Set Name | road_dens_cdf_mg.dbf, road_dens_cn_cdf.dbf, road_dens_cw_paul.dbf |
Maint. and Update Freq. | Updated with new THPs |
Serial Name | THP Data |
Purpose | To map roads because of their recognized potential contribution to cumulative watershed effects. |
Data Quality Information | High but only represents main haul roads. |
Use Constraints | Data give an index of cumulative watershed effects as miles of road per square mile, however, true extent of compacted areas (skid trails, landings, temporary haul roads) are under-represented. |
Supplemental Information | Garcia River TMDL addresses roads and erosion and abatement of potential sources (US EPA, 1998). Euphrat (1998) and PWA (1998) also addressed road issues in the Garcia River basin. |
