  11. Water Information Strategies Work Groups Data Analysis and Interpretation Data Management and Access Ad Hoc Project Team Program Development and Network Design

  12. Methods and Data Comparability Board The NWQMC Methods and Data Comparability Board provides a forum for exploring, evaluating, and promoting methods that facilitate collaboration and further comparability between water monitoring programs.

  13. Methods and Data Comparability Board Work Groups National Environmental Methods Index (NEMI) Aquatic Sensors Water-Quality Data Elements

  14. NAWQA, National Liaison Committee The National Liaison Committee (NLC) for the National Water Quality Assessment Program (NAWQA) creates an ongoing national liaison process for external organizations to work interactively with the NAWQA Program in joint problem solving on water quality issues.

  15. Subcommittee on Ground Water The overall goal of the SOGW is to develop and encourageimplementation of a nationwide,long term ground-water quantityand quality monitoring frameworkthat would provide information necessary for the planning, management, and developmentof ground-water supplies to meetcurrent and future water needs, and ecosystem requirements.

  16. Subcommittee on Ground Water Work Groups Monitoring Inventory Field Practices Implementation Data Standards andData Management

  17. Subcommittee on Hydrology The Subcommittee on Hydrology desires to improve the availability and reliability of surface-water quantity information needed for hazard mitigation, water supply and demand management, and environmental protection.

  18. Subcommittee on Hydrology Work Groups Hydrologic Frequency Analysis Hydrologic Modeling Extreme Storms Satellite TelemetryInteragency Hydrologic InformationSystems

  19. Subcommittee on Sedimentation The Subcommittee on Sedimentation promotes and supports development and standardization of equipment, methodologies, and calibration and performance criteria for the collection, analysis, interpretation, and interchange of fluvial-sediment data and related technical information.

  20. Subcommittee on Sedimentation Work Groups Federal Interagency Sedimentation Conferences Dam Removal / Sediment Management Reservoir Sedimentation Database (RESSED) Stream Morphology Database

  21. Subcommittee on Spatial Water Data The Subcommittee on Spatial Water Data jointly is sponsored with the Federal Geographic Data Committee develops water – resources components of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure.

  22. Sustainable WaterResources Roundtable The Sustainable Water Resources Roundtable Task Force serves as a forum to share information and perspectives that will promote better decision making regarding the sustainable development of our Nation's water resources.

  23. The Water Resources Adaptation to Climate Change Workgroup The Water Resources Adaptation to Climate Change Workgroup identifies research, data, and policy necessary for effective management and protection of water resources in the United States as the climate continues to change.

  24. ACWI/USGS Monitoring Challenges Workgroup The ACWI/USGS Monitoring Challenges Workgroup is to provide advice and recommendations to help USGS and Interior leadership continue to provide high quality water monitoring and related science within the framework of constrained financial resources. .
