Santa Margarita River Wma Monitoring Station Descriptions APPENDIX C Santa Margarita River WMA TMAR – FINAL January 2019 APPENDIX C – SANTA MARGARITA RIVER WMA MONITORING STATION DESCRIPTIONS Santa Margarita River WMA Transitional January 2019 Monitoring and Assessment Report - Final APPENDIX C Station Name: Temecula Creek below Pala Road (Lower Temecula Creek) Hydstra1 Reference #: 902LTC777 Location: Latitude 33° 28 '28.14" N Longitude 117° 8' 19.84" W Elevation 1,008 feet Thomas Bros Pg 979B3 Classification: Receiving Water - Mass Loading Station & Stream Assessment Type of Channel: Natural River Receiving Water: Santa Margarita River Directions to the site: Drive south on the I-215 freeway and exit at SR 79 South/Old Town Front Street. Go west of the freeway and turn left at the first stoplight. Turn left about 100 feet past the stop light onto a gravel/dirt road. Turn right, before the yellow EMWD gate. Drive to the dirt road that goes left and up. Go about 100 feet and turn right onto the dirt road. Go about 1,700 feet and drive to where the dirt road meets up with the gravel road. Follow the gravel road to the L3437 Pala II Pump Station. Park just past the pump station. Walk to the east and sample water from the stream flow just under the bridge. Temecula Creek at Pala Road is a Receiving Water Station. The Temecula Creek site, at an elevation of 968 feet, is located just east of the I-15 Freeway overpass, upstream of its confluence with Murrieta Creek. Creek flows are subsurface approximately 200 yards upstream (east) of the I-15 Freeway. The site seasonally varies from sparse to heavy in-stream vegetation. Aquatic habitat is not found in this reach. Conditions for benthic invertebrates tend to be poor at best. Primary source of flow at this sampling location during Dry weather is rising groundwater surfacing approximately 400 yards upstream. Since 2011-2012, Dry weather monitoring activities has shown that there is little to no evidence of any MS4 contribution to flow at this station; Temecula Creek is ephemeral beyond this spot. Vail Lake lies approximately 18 miles upstream of the Pala Road Crossing and traps virtually all of the Temecula Creek storm flows; discharges from Vail Lake flow into infiltration basins above Butterfield Stage Road. The soil profile in this 18-mile reach of Temecula Creek consists of deep alluvium with a high infiltration rate. 1 Hydstra is a proprietary data management system, the program supports export of data in commonly used spreadsheet and database formats.

Less than 5% of the watershed tributary to this station is zoned for urban land uses and within the Permittee's jurisdiction. MS4 facility discharges to Temecula Creek flow into a 100-foot-wide vegetated strip that is approximately 13,000 feet long and starts approximately 3½ miles upstream of this sampling location. This site was also used as a probabilistic site in the SMC Dry Weather Regional Monitoring Program for the 2009 Index Sampling Period. The total drainage area tributary to the Temecula Creek stations is 232,404 acres, of which 175,671 acres are within Riverside County. This tributary map includes the drainage area above Vail Lake, which is actually a controlled input to the tributary that releases flows infrequently.

Drive west of the freeway and turn left to Front Street. Turn right to Main Street. Turn left to Pujol Street. When Pujol Street goes from asphalt to a dirt road, drive about 500 feet and turn left at the two yellow vertical bollards. CAUTION: A 4-Wheel drive vehicle is recommended when driving in this area. Drive straight toward the creek. The picture shows the sampling location which is approximately 1100 feet downstream of the Rancho California Water District blow-off and approximately 600 feet downstream of the USGS gauge house. Note: During Storm Events, sampling is conducted at the USGS gauge house, upstream of the USGS weir due to safety. Lower Murrieta Creek at is a Receiving Water Station. The station is located just above the confluence of Murrieta Creek with Temecula Creek, at an elevation of 987 feet, downstream of the USGS gauging station in southern Temecula, CA, where Highway 79 crosses the I-15. The station is located in a section of bedrock just downstream (within ½ mile) from a portion of the Creek that was graded and re-vegetated in 2004 as a result of an Army Corps of Engineers project. A tributary to the Santa Margarita River, flows during Dry Weather at this station consists of rising groundwater that begins approximately ½- to ¼- mile from Murrieta Creek's confluence with the Santa Margarita River. This monitoring station is 0.4 miles upstream of the confluence of Temecula Creek and Murrieta Creek. The soil profile here indicates bedrock at the surface. The flow seen in the photo above is supplied by the mandated Rancho California Water District blow off just 100 yards upstream of the gauge and sampling point. * Source for Riverside County Receiving Water Site Descriptions: Attachment D, 2015-16 Monitoring Annual Report (Riverside County Copermittees, 2016) C-3 Santa Margarita River WMA Transitional January 2019 Monitoring and Assessment Report - Final APPENDIX C The total drainage area tributary to the Murrieta Creek station is 141,912 acres, all of which resides within Riverside County.

(Photo credit: American Red Cross) Opposite Page: Painting of Harris Fire by Kate Dore, based on photo by Wes Schultz. 2 Introductory Statement In October of 2007, a series of large wildfires ignited and burned hundreds of thousands of acres in Southern California. The fires displaced nearly one million residents, destroyed thousands of homes, and sadly took the lives of 10 people. Shortly after the fire siege began, a team was commissioned by CAL FIRE, the U.S. Forest Service and OES to gather data and measure the response from the numerous fire agencies involved. This report is the result of the team’s efforts and is based upon the best available information and all known facts that have been accumulated. In addition to outlining the fire conditions leading up to the 2007 siege, this report presents statistics —including availability of firefighting resources, acreage engaged, and weather conditions—alongside the strategies that were employed by fire commanders to create a complete day-by-day account of the firefighting effort. The ability to protect the lives, property, and natural resources of the residents of California is contingent upon the strength of cooperation and coordination among federal, state and local firefighting agencies.

  • 4 Tribal Nations of San Diego County This Chapter Presents an Overall Summary of the Tribal Nations of San Diego County and the Water Resources on Their Reservations
    4 Tribal Nations of San Diego County This chapter presents an overall summary of the Tribal Nations of San Diego County and the water resources on their reservations. A brief description of each Tribe, along with a summary of available information on each Tribe’s water resources, is provided. The water management issues provided by the Tribe’s representatives at the San Diego IRWM outreach meetings are also presented. 4.1 Reservations San Diego County features the largest number of Tribes and Reservations of any county in the United States. There are 18 federally-recognized Tribal Nation Reservations and 17 Tribal Governments, because the Barona and Viejas Bands share joint-trust and administrative responsibility for the Capitan Grande Reservation. All of the Tribes within the San Diego IRWM Region are also recognized as California Native American Tribes. These Reservation lands, which are governed by Tribal Nations, total approximately 127,000 acres or 198 square miles. The locations of the Tribal Reservations are presented in Figure 4-1 and summarized in Table 4-1. Two additional Tribal Governments do not have federally recognized lands: 1) the San Luis Rey Band of Luiseño Indians (though the Band remains active in the San Diego region) and 2) the Mount Laguna Band of Luiseño Indians. Note that there may appear to be inconsistencies related to population sizes of tribes in Table 4-1. This is because not all Tribes may choose to participate in population surveys, or may identify with multiple heritages. 4.2 Cultural Groups Native Americans within the San Diego IRWM Region generally comprise four distinct cultural groups (Kumeyaay/Diegueno, Luiseño, Cahuilla, and Cupeño), which are from two distinct language families (Uto-Aztecan and Yuman-Cochimi).
