Summary

To provide a link to the EPA Surf Your Watershed service. If you open the attributes of a Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) feature in this dataset the link found in the EPA_Link field will take you to the EPA Surf Your Watershed page for the selected hyrdologic unit.

Description

This dataset offers a link to the California segment of the Surf Your Watershed service offered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Surf Your Watershed is a service to help locate, use, and share watershed environmental information. A driving force behind Surf Your Watershed is to get environmental information into the hands of active citizens and groups to help those people connect and share information, ideas, and assistance.
