The first phase of the Delta Mercury Control Program required discharging entities to develop characterization and control studies to evaluate approaches for managing methylmercury.

• Phase 1 Methylmercury Characterization and Control Study Final Reports are listed on the Archived Documents webpage.

The Central Valley Water Board requested the Delta Science Program coordinate and conduct an independent review of these studies to assess the scientific validity of methods, analyses, and conclusions.

• The Final Independent Scientific Reports are available below:
• Independent Scientific Review Panel's review of Municipal Wastewater and Urban Stormwater control studies (Part 1).
• NEW - Independent Scientific Review Panel's review of Tidal Wetlands and Open Water Habitat Final Reports (Part 2).
• The Independent Scientific Review Panel's Charge, Tidal Wetlands and Open Water Habitat Final Reports, and other associated documents are available on the Delta Stewardship Council's Delta Science Program's Independent Scientific Review of the Delta Mercury Control Program Phase 1 webpage.
