| # Overview | ||
|
|
||
| As of March 11, 2024, NWIS services are "frozen": any public data retrieval will not include any new data. | ||
|
|
||
| ### NWIS qw services | ||
|
|
||
| Discrete water quality samples data are undergoing modernization, and NWIS services pulling that discrete water quality data ('qw') will no longer be updated with the latest data starting mid-March 2024, with a full decommission expected 6 months later. Learn more about the upcoming change and where to find the new samples data in our [blog](https://waterdata.usgs.gov/blog/changes-to-sample-data/). | ||

| ### WQP: USGS Data | ||

| Limited availability of **new** USGS data: starting mid-March new USGS data will not be accessible on the Water Quality Portal (WQP). Data will still be collected but will not be publicly available. This limited availability is expected to last a few weeks. | ||
| **New USGS data**: temporarily not accessible on the Water Quality Portal (WQP). Data are still being collected, but are not publicly available. This limited availability is expected to last a few weeks. | ||
|
|
||
| **New USGS data** will be accessible again upon release of the new "Data Profiles" (how the data is formatted by the WQP), which will be in the "WQX version 3.0 format" (WQX = [Water Quality Exchange](https://exchangenetwork.net/data-exchange/wqx/)). These profiles should be available starting April 2024. These profiles are not yet available to test. When they are, we will update this page with recommendations. | ||
