Description: Original Shapefile Name: WatershedManagementZones_v3. This layer shows Watershed Management Zones (WMZ) for the Central Coast Joint Effort for Hydromodification Control project area. This dataset is the result of the combination of 3 layers: Receiving Water Types, Physical Landscape Zones (PLZ), Groundwater basin. Please refer to each individual layer metadata for details about these datasets. The key attribute of WMZ is 'WMZ_VALUE', represented by a number and an associated category of watershed management zone. Those are as follow:1 = OF, GW /IF, ET; 2 = OF / GW, IF, ET; 3 = CBT / OF, ET; 4 = CBT (*)/; 5 = DS / GW, IF, ET; 6 = DS / OF, ET; 7 = DS / (*); 8 = / GW, IF, ET; 9 = / OF, ET; 10 = / (*), where: OF = apply strategies to protect OVERLAND FLOW (avoidance); GW = apply strategies to protect GROUNDWATER RECHARGE; IF = apply strategies to protect INTERFLOW; ET = apply strategies to protect EVAPOTRANSPIRATION; CBT = apply strategies to protect CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL TRANSFORMATIONS; DS = apply strategies to protect DELIVERY OF SEDIMENT; DO = apply strategies to protect DELIVERY OF ORGANICS; (*) = apply strategies to protect GROUNDWATER RECHARGE, but only where underlain by mapped groundwater basin. Processes before the “/” = key watershed processes; of primary concern for protection; should be subject to most stringent numerical criteria. Processes after the “/” = watershed processes of less critical importance; could be subject to less stringent numerical criteria.
