  1. Utah Department of Environmental QualityDivision of Water QualityModern STORET Implementation • Why Move From a Working Database To STORET: • Originally a Dept. of Health Wang Application • Database Housed on Dept. of Health Hardware • Paid Dept. of Health $--- per Year for Support • Application Support Provided Dept. of Health • Only Two Appx Programmers in the State • Incumbent Programmer Left Dept. of Health • Application Software Outdated • Biological Data not Stored in Database • Chronic Standards Not Stored or Reported • Data Retrieval Limited Access

  2. Utah Department of Environmental QualityDivision of Water Quality Modern STORET Implementation • Utilize and Enhance Modernized EPA STORET • Pro’s: • Easy Transfer of Data to EPA • Application Follows WQ Business Process • DEQ Supported Database • EPA Support, Updates and Enhancements • Con’s: • Does Not Support DEQ Unique Needs • Data Entry is Awkward • Data Transfer from Appx

  3. Utah Department of Environmental QualityDivision of Water Quality Modern STORET Implementation • First Accomplishments • Historical Data Migrated to Modernized STORET • STORET Input Module Developed • DEQ/WQ, Region VIII, Headquarters: Cooperative

  4. Utah Department of Environmental QualityDivision of Water Quality Modern STORET Implementation • Using SIM as a major import tool for: • Field/Multi-probe data • Chemical Data • Macroinvertebrate Data • Periphyton/Phytoplankton Data • Habitat Assesment Data • Batch update process is used for lake profile data

  6. Utah Department of Environmental QualityDivision of Water QualitySTORET Modernization Tables Used in Reformating Multi-probe Data

  7. Utah Department of Environmental QualityDivision of Water QualitySTORET Modernization Reformat Multi-Probe Data for SIM2

  8. Utah Department of Environmental QualityDivision of Water Quality Modern STORET Implementation • DEQ/WQ STORET Enhancements • Standards Module • Trip Module • Data Export/Reporting Module

  9. Utah Department of Environmental QualityDivision of Water QualitySTORET Modernization • STORET Database Comprised of Tables • Tables Owned by User STORET Read Only • Characteristics, Units of Measure, Field Gear, • Hydrological Units • Tables Owned by User STORET1 - Read/Write Ability • Stations, Station Visits, Trips, Samples, • Results, Field Measurements/Observations • Tables Owned by SIM2 - Data Entry Transition Tables • Stations, Station Visits, Samples, Results • Tables Owned by UTAHDWQ - Read/Write Ability • Utah Water Quality Specific Tables • Water Quality Standards, Use Designations, Transition Tables

  21. Conclusion Utah Department of Environmental QualityDivision of Water QualitySTORET Modernization The STORET database does not meet the needs of individual programs. Because monitoring program methods and goals are as diverse as our country, it would be impossible to meet the needs of every individual program. STORET does provide the basic tables and appropriate element relationships necessary for any program to store data. The STORET database provides an excellent “starter” database that can be customized to meet the requirements of individual programs
