Instream members,
DEQ’s Water Quality Standards and Assessment staff agreed to hold a short informal session on the 2018-2020 Integrated Report for us prior to our Nov 5 Instream workgroup meeting.
As many of you know, the official Newport session was coincidently scheduled on the same date & time as the Instream ‘monthly’ meeting (it’s been a few months since we met).
Date: Nov 5, 2019
Time: 11:00 am-12:00 pm
Location: OSU HMSC - Barry Fisher Room
Topics: overview of the IR and tools to review the draft Integrated Report prior to the officially scheduled meeting (see below).
Regards, David

Oregon’s Draft 2018/2020 Integrated Report on Surface Water Quality and List of Water Quality Limited Waters is now available on DEQ’s website: https://www.oregon.gov/deq/wq/Pages/2018-Integrated-Report.aspx.
The Draft Integrated Report can be accessed in three ways:
- An interactive story map that provides an overview of the water quality assessment process and displays results in terms of beneficial use support
- An interactive web map application that displays the Integrated Report by overall status of an assessment unit. The application also provides all applicable Water Quality Standards and TMDL information.
- An on-line searchable database that provides categorical assessment conclusions for all assessed pollutants
DEQ will be holding informational sessions to walk through changes to the Integrated Report, demonstrate new map tools and online searchable database, and provide technical assistance for interested parties who may want to provide comment on the report.
