Springs and Seeps Monitoring Protocol Data for Park Units in the Northern Colorado Plateau Network from 1999-02-19 to 2024-11-20

This data package was created 2025-09-24 08:12:31 by NPSTORET and includes selected project, location, and result data.

Data are from the Northern Colorado Plateau Network's Springs and Seeps database that was exported/converted into an NPS WQX Electronic Data Deliverable (EDD) for EQuIS. The EDD was also imported into NPSTORET to produce an NPSTORET version of the database named NCPN_SAS_NPSTORET_BE_20250922.ACCDB (NPSTORET back-end file). This NPSTORET version of the database was filtered to include the following data in the Data Package:

Station:
- Include Trip QC And All Station Visit Results
Value Status:
- Accepted or Certified (exported as Final) or Final

The data package is organized into six data tables:
- Projects.csv - describes the purpose and background of the monitoring efforts
- Locations.csv - documents the attributes of the monitoring locations/stations
- Results.csv - contains the field measurements, observations, and/or lab analyses for each sample/event/data grouping
- HUC.csv - enumerates the domain of allowed values for 8-digit and 12-digit hydrologic unit codes utilized by the Locations data table
- Characteristics.csv - enumerates the domain of characteristics available in NPSTORET to identify what was sampled, measured or observed in Results
- Taxon.csv - enumerates the domain of taxa available in NPSTORET to identify the organism sampled for Results

Period of record for filtered data is 1999-02-19 to 2024-11-20. This data package is a snapshot in time of one National Park Service project. The most current data for this project, which may be more or less extensive than that in this data package, can be found on the Water Quality Portal at:
