Relevant datasets include:
drinking water quality
NMED (SDWIS - captures 1000+ PWS)
theoretically have the machine readable data available
per Mary/Jeff: a lot of spreadsheet not linked to SDWIS right now
SDWIS accessible online but not query-able per criteria (only viewable by well)
Connection between SDWIS and Drinking Water Watch (EPA-driven) is primarily spreadsheet driven
Drinking Water Watch: https://dww.water.net.env.nm.gov/NMDWW/
surface water quality (W2X)
700 units assessed by NMED (for various criteria)
theoretically have the machine readable data available
considers agricultural water quality issues
groundwater quality
NMED regulates protection of groundwater from discharges, i.e. Nancy McDuffy
mostly spreadsheets and some paper files
monitoring well data - as required for discharge permits (such as petroleum storage tanks, dairy farms, or landfills) * these data include measurements of water levels
NMBGMR collects groundwater quality for hydrogeologic research
SQL database, can be made machine readable (and is connected by Sensor Things? Jake Ross )
USGS collects groundwater quality for hydrogeologic research
produced water quality
not regulated right now by NMED, no state agency database
eventually PRRC/NMPWRC hope to be intaking some quality data for treated produced water (that’s used outside of O&G)
precip water quality
Occasionally collected for research purposes (NMBGMR)
