The San Bernardino Valley Water Conservation District (SBVWCD) contracted AECOM to produce an association-level vegetation classification and map of lands owned and/or managed by the District in the Upper Santa Ana River Wash. The classification is consistent with the Manual of California Vegetation (MCV) (CNPS 2018), and vegetation sampling methods followed National Park Service (NPS) Vegetation Index protocols. The mapping study area consists of approximately 2,200-acres near Mentone, in San Bernardino, California. Approximately 1,500-acres lie within the Preserve set aside for the Upper Santa Ana River Wash Habitat Conservation Plan. The primary purpose of this project was to provide the District a consistent system for the mapping of vegetation on its lands. Vegetation mapping is conducted periodically by the District to inform various environmental and species management initiatives.All plot data collection took place May 2-5, 2025. Four-band (RGB and color NIR) aerial imagery was collected May 4, 2022. All image acquisition, processing, and ortho-rectification were conducted by GeoTerra, Inc. Polygons were drawn using a minimum mapping unit (MMU) of 0.5 acre, and vegetation attributes assigned using the vegetation key provided in the newly created classification. Field reconnaissance was conducted by the photo-interpreter during the earliest stages of mapping to establish photo-signature recognition for each alliance and association. There were a total of 21 mapping classes. More information can be found in the project report, which is bundled with the vegetation map published for BIOS here: https://res1filelibd-o-twildlifed-o-tcad-o-tgov.vcapture.xyz/Public/BDB/GIS/BIOS/Public_Datasets/3200_3299/ds3212.zip

This data depicts California Proposition 1 Funding Area boundaries as defined by Water Code §79744, which states, "(a) Of the funds authorized by Section 79740, five hundred ten million dollars ($510,000,000) shall be allocated to the hydrologic regions as identified in the California Water Plan in accordance with this section. For the South Coast hydrologic region, the department shall establish three funding areas that reflect the watersheds of San Diego County and southern Orange County (designated as the San Diego subregion), the Santa Ana River watershed (designated as the Santa Ana subregion), and the Los Angeles and Ventura County watersheds (designated as the Los Angeles subregion), and shall allocate funds to those areas in accordance with this subdivision. The North and South Lahontan hydrologic regions shall be treated as one area for the purpose of allocating funds. For purposes of this subdivision, the Sacramento River hydrologic region does not include the Delta. For purposes of this subdivision, the Mountain Counties Overlay is not eligible for funds from the Sacramento River hydrologic region or the San Joaquin River hydrologic region. Multiple integrated regional water management plans may be recognized in each of the areas allocated funding." Key differences between the old and new P1 FAs data set (original/proposed data set, respectively): 1. Line-work along the coastline formerly excluded much detail (bays, inlets, piers, lagoons, etc.); the new proposed dataset more closely follows the i03_Hydrologic_Regions data set. Hence, this data set includes more line detail along the coastline. 2. Line-work forming the P1 FAs between the Southwest portion of the San Joaquin River funding area and Northwest portion of the Tulare/Kern funding area was inconsistent between the two data sets. This data set corrects this notable discrepancy.

Version InformationThe data is updated annually with fire perimeters from the previous calendar year.Firep23_1 was released in May 2024. Two hundred eighty four fires from the 2023 fire season were added to the database (21 from BLM, 102 from CAL FIRE, 72 from Contract Counties, 19 from LRA, 9 from NPS, 57 from USFS and 4 from USFW). The 2020 Cottonwood fire, 2021 Lone Rock and Union fires, as well as the 2022 Lost Lake fire were added. USFW submitted a higher accuracy perimeter to replace the 2022 River perimeter. A duplicate 2020 Erbes fire was removed. Additionally, 48 perimeters were digitized from an historical map included in a publication from Weeks, d. et al. The Utilization of El Dorado County Land. May 1934, Bulletin 572. University of California, Berkeley. There were 2,132 perimeters that received updated attribution, the bulk of which had IRWIN IDs added. The following fires were identified as meeting our collection criteria, but are not included in this version and will hopefully be added in the next update: Big Hill #2 (2023-CAHIA-001020). YEAR_ field changed to a short integer type. San Diego CAL FIRE UNIT_ID changed to SDU (the former code MVU is maintained in the UNIT_ID domains). COMPLEX_INCNUM renamed to COMPLEX_ID and is in process of transitioning from local incident number to the complex IRWIN ID. Perimeters managed in a complex in 2023 are added with the complex IRWIN ID. Those previously added will transition to complex IRWIN IDs in a future update.If you would like a full briefing on these adjustments, please contact the data steward, Kim Wallin (kimberly.wallin@fire.ca.gov), CAL FIRE FRAP._CAL FIRE (including contract counties), USDA Forest Service Region 5, USDI Bureau of Land Management & National Park Service, and other agencies jointly maintain a fire perimeter GIS layer for public and private lands throughout the state. The data covers fires back to 1878. Current criteria for data collection are as follows:CAL FIRE (including contract counties) submit perimeters ≥10 acres in timber, ≥50 acres in brush, or ≥300 acres in grass, and/or ≥3 damaged/ destroyed residential or commercial structures, and/or caused ≥1 fatality.All cooperating agencies submit perimeters ≥10 acres._Discrepancies between wildfire perimeter data and CAL FIRE Redbook Large Damaging FiresLarge Damaging fires in California were first defined by the CAL FIRE Redbook, and has changed over time, and differs from the definition initially used to define wildfires required to be submitted for the initial compilation of this digital fire perimeter data. In contrast, the definition of fires whose perimeter should be collected has changed once in the approximately 30 years the data has been in existence. Below are descriptions of changes in data collection criteria used when compiling these two datasets. To facilitate comparison, this metadata includes a summary, by year, of fires in the Redbook, that do not appear in this fire perimeter dataset. It is followed by an enumeration of each “Redbook” fire missing from the spatial data.

The California State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) and the nine Regional Water Quality Control Boards (Regional Water Boards), collectively known as the California Water Boards (Water Boards), are dedicated to a single vision: abundant clean water for human uses and environmental protection to sustain California’s future. Under the federal Clean Water Act (CWA) and the state’s pioneering Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act, the State and Regional Water Boards have regulatory responsibility for protecting the water quality of nearly 1.6 million acres of lakes, 1.3 million acres of bays and estuaries, 211,000 miles of rivers and streams, and about 1,100 miles of California coastline.The State Water Board is located in Sacramento. There are nine Regional Water Boards, the boundaries of which are generally based on watersheds, also known as hydrologic areas. The nine Regional Water Boards are referred to by specific names, which are: (1) North Coast, (2) San Francisco Bay, (3) Central Coast, (4) Los Angeles, (5) Central Valley, (6) Lahontan, (7) Colorado River Basin, (8) Santa Ana, and (9) San Diego. Due to their size, and/or geographic spread, the Central Valley Board has three offices and the Lahontan Board has two offices. In addition, the Drinking Water Program has fourteen District offices spread throughout the state.This map service shows the jurisdictional boundaries of the nine Regional Water Boards and the locations of their administrative offices. The official legal definitions of Regional Water Quality Control Board jurisdictions may be found in the Section 13200 of the California Water Code.For more information, please visit the California Water Boards website at https://www.waterboards.ca.gov.
The data set for the Devore 7.5' quadrangle was prepared under the U.S. Geological Survey Southern California Areal Mapping Project (SCAMP) as part of an ongoing effort to develop a regional geologic framework of southern California, and to utilize a Geographical Information System (GIS) format to create regional digital geologic databases. These regional databases are being developed as contributions to the National Geologic Map Database of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program of the USGS.
The digital geologic map database for the Devore 7.5' quadrangle has been created as a general-purpose data set that is applicable to other land-related investigations in the earth and biological sciences. For example, it can be used for groundwater studies in the San Bernardino basin, and for mineral resource evaluation studies, animal and plant habitat studies, and soil studies in the San Bernardino National Forest. The database is not suitable for site-specific geologic evaluations.
This data set maps and describes the geology of the Devore 7.5' quadrangle, San Bernardino County, California. Created using Environmental Systems Research Institute's ARC/INFO software, the data base consists of the following items: (1) a map coverage containing geologic contacts and units, (2) attribute tables for geologic units (polygons), contacts (arcs), and site-specific data (points). In addition, the data set includes the following graphic and text products: (1) A PostScript graphic plot-file containing the geologic map, topography, cultural data, a Correlation of Map Units (CMU) diagram, a Description of Map Units (DMU), an index map, a regional geologic and structure map, and a key for point and line symbols; (2) PDF files of this Readme (including the metadata file as an appendix), Description of Map Units (DMU), and the graphic produced by the PostScript plot file.
The Devore quadrangle straddles part of the boundary between two major physiographic provinces of California, the Transverse Ranges Province to the north and the Peninsular Ranges Province to the south. The north half of the quadrangle includes the eastern San Gabriel Mountains and a small part of the western San Bernardino Mountains, both within the east-central part of the Transverse Ranges Province. South of the Cucamonga and San Andreas Fault zones, the extensive alluviated area in the south half of the quadrangle lies within the upper Santa Ana River Valley, and represents the northernmost part of the Peninsular Ranges Province.
There are numerous active faults within the quadrangle, including right-lateral strike-slip faults of the San Andreas Fault system, which dominate the younger structural elements, and separate the San Gabriel from the San Bernardino Mountains. The active San Jacinto Fault zone projects toward the quadrangle from the southeast, but its location is poorly constrained not only within the quadrangle, but for at least several kilometers to the southeast. As a result, the interrelation between it, the Glen Helen Fault, and the probable easternmost part of the San Gabriel Fault is intrepretive. Thrust faults of the Cucamonga Fault zone along the south margin of the San Gabriel Mountains, represent the rejuvinated eastern end of a major old fault zone that bounds the south side of the western and central Transverse Ranges (Morton and Matti, 1993). Rejuvenation of this old fault zone, including the Cucamonga Fault zone, is apparently in response to compression in the eastern San Gabriel Mountains resulting from initiation of right-lateral slip on the San Jacinto Fault zone in the Peninsular Ranges.The structural grain within the San Gabriel Mountains, as defined by basement rocks, is generally east striking. Within the Devore quadrangle, these basement rocks include a Paleozoic (?) schist, quartzite, and marble metasedimentary sequence, which occurs as discontinuous lenses and septa within Cretaceous granitic rocks. Most of the granitic rocks are of tonalitic composition, and much of them are mylonitic. South of the granitic rocks is a complex assemblage of Proterozoic (?) metamorphic rocks, at least part of which is metasedimentary. The assemblage was metamorphosed to upper amphibolite and lower granulite grade, and subsequently remetamorphosed to a lower metamorphic grade. It is also intensely deformed by mylonitization which is characterized by an east striking, north dipping foliation, and by a pronounced lineation that plunges shallowly east and west.
East of Lytle Creek and west of the San Andreas Fault zone, the predominant basement lithology is Mesozoic Pelona Schist, which consists mostly of greenschist grade metabasalt and metagraywacke. Intruding the Pelona Schist, between Lytle Creek and Cajon Canyon, is the granodiorite of Telegraph Peak of Oligocene age (May and Walker, 1989). East of the San Andreas Fault in the San Bernardino Mountains, basement rocks consist of amphibolite grade gneiss and schist intermixed with concordant and discordant tonalitic rock and pegmatite. Tertiary conglomerate and sandstone occur in the Cucamonga Fault zone and in a zone 200 to 700 m wide between strands of the San Andreas Fault zone and localized thrust faults northeast of the San Andreas. Most of the conglomerate and sandstone within the Cucamonga Fault zone is overturned forming the north limb of an overturned syncline. Clasts in the conglomerate are not derived from any of the basement rocks in the eastern San Gabriel Mountains. Clasts in the conglomerate and sandstone northeast of the San Andreas Fault zone do not appear to be locally derived either. The south half of the quadrangle is dominated by the large symmetrical alluvial-fan emanating from the canyon of Lytle Creek, and by the complex braided stream sediments of Lytle Creek and Cajon Wash.
The San Andreas Fault is restricted to a relatively narrow zone marked by a pronounced scarp that is especially well exposed near the east margin of the quadrangle. Two poorly exposed, closely spaced, north-dipping thrust faults northeast of the San Andreas Fault have dips that appear to range from 55? to near horizontal. These hallower dips probably are the result of rotation of initially steeper fault surfaces by downhill surface creep. Between the San Andreas and Glen Helen Fault zones, there are several faults that have north facing scarps, the largest of which are the east striking Peters Fault and the northwest striking Tokay Hill Fault. The Tokay Hill Fault is at least in part a reverse fault. Scarps along both faults are youthful appearing.
The Glen Helen Fault zone along the west side of Cajon Creek, is well defined by a pronounced scarp from the area north of Interstate 15, south through Glen Helen Regional Park; an elongate sag pond is located within the park.
The large fault zone along Meyers Canyon, between Penstock and Lower Lytle Ridges, is probably the eastward extension of the San Gabriel Fault zone that is deformed into a northwest orientation due to compression in the eastern San Gabriel Mountains (Morton and Matti, 1993). At the south end of Sycamore Flat, this fault zone consists of three discreet faults distributed over a width of 300 m. About 2.5 km northwest of Sycamore Flats, it consists of a 300 m wide shear zone. At the north end of Penstock Ridge, the fault zone has bifurcated into four strands, which at the northwest corner of the quadrangle are distributed over a width of about one kilometer. From the northern part of Sycamore Flat, for a distance of nearly 5 km northwestward, a northeast dipping reverse fault is located along the east side of the probable San Gabriel Fault zone. This youthful reverse fault has locally placed the Oligocene granodiorite of Telegraph Peak over detritus derived from the granodiorite.
The Lytle Creek Fault, which is commonly considered the western splay of the San Jacinto Fault zone, is located on the west side of Lytle Creek. Lateral displacement on the Lytle Creek Fault has offset parts of the old Lytle Creek channel; this offset gravel-filled channel is best seen at Texas Hill, near the mouth of Lytle Creek, where the gravel was hydraulic mined for gold in the 1890s.
The Cucamonga Fault zone consists of a one kilometer wide zone of northward dip-ping thrust faults. Most splays of this fault zone dip north 25 to 35.
The geologic map database contains original U.S. Geological Survey data generated by detailed field observation and by interpretation of aerial photographs. This digital Open-File map supercedes an older analog Open-File map of the quadrangle, and includes extensive new data on the Quaternary deposits, and revises some fault and bedrock distribution within the San Gabriel Mountains. The digital map was compiled on a base-stable cronoflex copy of the Devore 7.5 deg. topographic base and then scribed. This scribe guide was used to make a 0.007 mil blackline clear-film, from which lines and point were hand digitized. Lines, points, and polygons were subsequently edited at the USGS using standard ARC/INFO commands. Digitizing and editing artifacts significant enough to display at a scale of 1:24,000 were corrected. Within the database, geologic contacts are represented as lines (arcs), geologic units as polygons, and site-specific data as points. Polygon, arc, and point attribute tables (.pat, .aat, and .pat, respectively) uniquely identify each geologic datum.
