1. and
Introductions.
What is the experience level of the group?

2. Project Overview
An on-going project provides training and assistance to 12 tribes in consolidating, validating and flowing water quality monitoring data to WQX via the Ambient Water Quality Monitoring System (AWQMS).

3. Project Overview
The project has made data analysis tools available for supporting and defending local environmental decisions.
This presentation will discuss the project goals, progress made, and where we are heading.

4. Project Overview
Provide all participating Tribes/Pueblos with the tools and training to successfully:
Assess
Manage
Analyze
Share
Their Water Quality, Habitat Assessment, and Biological Data.

5. Project Overview
Satisfy their 106 obligation in submitting data to WQX on a continuing basis.
Conduct bi-annual AWQMS training for all Tribes and Pueblos.
Provide support to the Tribes and Pueblos in regards to their AWQMS use.

8. Project Accomplishments
Annual AWQMS Trainings have taken place in Albuquerque, NM since 2014:
2-3 day trainings review all things AWQMS in a 1-on-1 atmosphere with Gold Systems.
A BIG thank you to the Sandia Casino & Resort – HR Training Center for graciously providing us a center to host the trainings for the last 3 years.

9. Project Accomplishments
On-site training include:
1-on-1 assessment of each Tribe’s data and it’s status in AWQMS/WQX.
Giving the user the tools and know-how on how to manage, QA, assess, and analyze their data in AWQMS.

10. Project Accomplishments
On-site training include:
Various presentations on entering (and submitting) habitat data, biological data, and all water chemistry to WQX.
Overview of AWQMS enhancements that give greater and more useful functionality In the system for it’s users.

11. Project Accomplishments
The overall goal of these trainings is to ensure all participating Tribes/Pueblos have a full understanding of the system, and are submitting their data regularly to WQX.
Because of this, ENIPC AWQMS Consortium members spend less time worrying about submissions to WQX, and more time making informed water quality decisions.

23. AWQMS Strategic Plan Continuous Monitoring Data
Ability for dataset “adjustments”
Add flexibility in periodic summaries sent to WQX
EPA Central Sensor Catalog
Become a “Data Appliance”

24. AWQMS Strategic Plan Assessments
Capture & Manage Assessments Tied to Water Quality data
Submit assessments to ATTAINS via Exchange Network

25. AWQMS Strategic Plan Integrated Data Review Process Review dataset
Software assisted identification of potential issues
Set Result Status Individually or as a Batch (Preliminary, Reject, Final, etc.)

26. AWQMS Strategic Plan Event Analysis Capture and manage “events”
During data analysis be able to visualize data in context of events
