Memorandum Report on Surface Water Availability in the Caloosahatchee Basin; Surface water availability in the Caloosahatchee Basin.58 p. : ill., maps ; 28 cm.; "September 1974."; The main purpose of this 1974 report is to identify, quantify and evaluate the hydrologic constraints operating in the Caloosahatchee Basin which have a bearing on surface water allocations for salinity control and for irrigation and navigational uses. A corollary purpose is the establishment of minimum flows from S-79 (Franklin Lock and Dam) to the estuarine areas. Recommendations are made concerning guidelines for evaluating new surface water withdrawal permits; treatment of existing valid surface water withdrawal permits; guidelines for salinity control in the reach between S-79 and S-78; minimum discharges to the estuary from S-79; and guidelines for water supply operations for the Caloosahatchee Basin.; (Ownership) Florida Collection, Government Documents, Green Library, Florida International University

Chemical quality of water in conservation area 2A and associated canals; by Patrick J. Gleason.vii, 72, [79] p. : ill. ; 28 cm.; Bibliography: p. 71-72 (1st group); This document reports the results of a 1972-1973 study of the chemical quality of water in Florida's Conservation Area 2A and adjacent areas. Chemical quality was good, with two exceptions: 1) specific conductance of marsh and canal water exceeded water quality standards, and 2) ammonia in canals frequently exceeded standards. The spring drawdown of Conservation Area 2A had no determinable effect on water quality. The concentrations of various ions showed linear relationships.; (Ownership) Florida Collection, Government Documents, Green Library, Florida International University

Biscayne Bay Water Quality Monitoring NetworkAbstract: Project BISC serves the mandates listed above. The District and DERM initiated and maintained this monitoring program to identify areas of ecological concern and provide a clear understanding of baseline conditions using both systematic and investigative monitoring. The main purpose has been to characterize water quality spatially and seasonally, and to detect long-term trends. Additionally, the program has also been used to identify specific hotspots, develop and monitor comprehensive stormwater improvement programs, develop non-degradation criteria, and develop freshwater response relationships. An objective of the program is to maintain the long-term dataset for characterization of water quality through various climatic cycles, events and watershed changes. DERM data is used to address Dade County water quality permitting issues and support various non-degradation and TMDL planning activities for Biscayne Bay. As such, the focus of DERM's sampling is in canals; DERM's Bay sampling program is on receiving waters with a focus on channels. Several DERM stations are named in RECOVER's Monitoring and Assessment Plan (MAP) as key stations for assessment of environmental response to the CERP. FIU data is used to support long-term water quality assessments and planning. The FIU stations purposely avoid sampling in channels in Northern Biscayne Bay. Funding for the DERM program comes from the State of Florida through the District, while funding for FIU originates with the District. The monitoring program includes all of Biscayne Bay from the Broward County line to U.S. Highway 1 at Key Largo and tributaries to Biscayne Bay. Several District canals empty into Biscayne Bay. Monitoring sites are fixed and are denser in the northern area of the bay than the southern area. The program covers roughly 1400 square miles. Two water quality-monitoring contracts support the District's management of the Biscayne Bay region, one with Miami-Dade DERM and one with FIU. The FIU Biscayne Bay project was optimized during a previous effort. District staff suggested that the FIU information be evaluated with the DERM data for this BISC optimization. In addition to spatial redundancies, frequency of sampling and the parameters that are sampled by both organizations should be compared to determine if redundancies or data gaps exist.; Project Start Date: 1978 began, was updated in 1995

Lake Okeechobee Littoral ZoneAbstract: The purpose of OLIT is to gather baseline data for the development of management strategies and research objectives for Lake Okeechobee, estimate long-term phosphorus loading to Lake Okeechobee; identify trends in total phosphorus and other water quality variables that are indicators of the Lake's health over time; and provide a water quality database for: a. complying with monitoring requirements of the Lake Okeechobee Operating Permit #50-0679349 issued by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) b. determining effectiveness of the implementation of basin management plans in reducing nutrient loadings into the lake as specified in the Surface Water Improvement and Management Act of 1987 c. determining long and short-term trends necessary to identify potential problem areas in terms of water quality degradation, nutrient loadings, and tracking eutrophication of the lake d. applying eutrophication models to verify and refine the nutrient load targets for the lake and rank its trophic status. The primary focus of the OLIT Project's design is the estimation of long-term phosphorus loading to Lake Okeechobee and the identification of trends in total phosphorus and other water quality variables that are indicators of the Lake's health over time.; Project Start Date: 1996
