2008 UPDATE ON SACRAMENTO VALLEY GPS HEIGHT-MONITORING PROJECT

The Yolo County Subsidence Network monitoring project was the template and inspiration for DWR to expand a monitoring project throughout the Sacramento Valley.  Jim Frame, Frame Surveying and DWR staff are coordinating the surveying activities. In Yolo County, the cities of Davis and Woodland, Yolo County Flood Control & WCD, and UC Davis have committed staff or equipment to the project in addition to paticipation by local agencies in at least six counties in Northern California.  Observationsin Yolo County will take place between May 2 to May 22, 2008. Report results of the monitoring survey are expected in the fall 2008.  The WRA Technical Committee will receive regular updates on the project as available.
