Checking Your Data for Compatibility to STORET/WQX

Use this Checklist to determine how the water quality monitoring data you’ve collected can be organized in the STORET/WQX-compatible format. If you can answer "Y" to all of the REQUIRED elements, you have all of the components needed for STORET/WQX-compatibility. Each circled "N" within the REQUIRED elements indicates a data field which will need to be investigated before your data can be considered STORET/WQX-compatible.
