AB: The San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD), a part of the National Science Foundation's EarthScope program, has recently completed the third phase of drilling and coring. With additional support from the USGS and the International Continental Drilling Program (ICDP), we have obtained over 30m of core from active deforming sections of the San Andreas Fault. In addition to the core, cuttings, and fluid samples collected at the drill site, there have been several successful instrument deployments in both the Pilot Hole and Main Hole, during the past year. This paper will discuss the acquisition, storage and distribution plan for the diverse types of data and samples that have been collected at SAFOD to date. The website at http://safod.icdp-online.org provides the detailed descriptions of all the physical samples (cuttings, core and fluid samples) available from SAFOD, together with sample request form and other general information on the SAFOD project. The samples are being archived at the , Integrated Ocean Drilling Program's Gulf Coast Repository in College Station, Texas. The geophysical monitoring program at SAFOD continues to expand. There is a real-time seismic data stream of 250 sample/sec data (downsampled from the 4000 sample/sec onsite data). Helicorder previews can be viewed at http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/cgi-bin/helipark.pl. The high sample rate data are available in SEED format from the Northern California Earthquake Data Center (http://quake.geo.berkeley.edu/safod/) and from the IRIS data center (http://www.iris.edu/data/data.htm). And, new this year, there are now both tiltmeter and strainmeter data flowing to the data centers on a daily basis, available at http://www.ncedc.org. As with all elements of EarthScope, these data and samples are openly available to members of the scientific and educational communities.
