This annual self-monitoring report (ASMR) summarizes the results of the water quality monitoring and pond management sampling conducted at the Baumberg Complex, also known as the Eden Landing Ecological Reserve (ELER), in Hayward, California, from May through October 2009. Data was collected by Department of Fish and Game (Department) staff in accordance with the waste discharge requirements. Water quality monitoring was performed using continuous data recorders at the locations described in the Self-Monitoring Program outlined in the Final Order. Previous nomenclature used the initial “B” for Baumberg Complex ponds, which has been subsequently changed to “E” for Eden Landing, as part of the South Bay Salt Ponds (SBSP) restoration project. For consistency with the SBSP nomenclature now commonly used, this report uses the “E” nomenclature, except where noted and older figures or references provided by others are not easily modified.
