Summary

Georgia Department of Natural Resources contributed data to MARIS from the Georgia Wade-able Streams Fish Index of Biotic Integrity Sampling program and from Georgia Standardized Sampling program. For Georgia Wade-able Streams Fish Index of Biotic Integrety Sampling, the Georgia Department of Natural Resources is engaged in a statewide effort to establish a fish index of biotic integrity (IBI) based on the state's five major ecoregions. The IBI consists of 13 metrics, and scoring criteria for the metrics are based on major river basin and watershed area as well as ecoregion. IBI scores are also reported to Georgia's regulatory agency for use in the Clean Water Act 305b/303d listing process. Data provided to MARIS is a subset of a larger [...]

Purpose

MARIS was initially developed to serve a need for states to provide data in response to data requests from multiple federal agencies. However, it has evolved to provide a potentially valuable tool for state agencies to provide data in response to numerous data inquiries from members of the public or nongovernmental organizations. The initial focus of MARIS was to provide data elements related to the “status and trends” of fisheries, but this thinking has evolved into a broader utility of the data including serving as a conduit for states to contribute data for the National Fish Habitat Partnership (NFHP)and other stakeholders.
