Tampa Bay Dredged Hole Habitat Assessment: Status of Benthic Macrofauna and Sediment Contaminants, Final Report. TBEP Technical Report #03-18. 105 p. ii Abstract Eleven dredged holes in Tampa Bay were sampled to evaluate their benthic habitat status and provide data for future management decisions. Samples were collected in August 2016 (fall) and March/April 2017 (spring). Sediment grab samples were collected from three sites within each dredged hole and from one reference site outside of the dredged hole during each season. Samples were analyzed for benthic infauna, sediment composition and sediment contaminants (fall only). Results indicated that four of the eleven dredged holes had clean or only low levels of sediment contaminants and supported a healthy benthic community. These included the Skyway Causeway North and South dredged holes in Lower Tampa Bay, The Venetian Isles dredged hole in Middle Tampa Bay and the Georgetown dredged hole in Old Tampa Bay. The Culbreath Bayou North dredged hole in Old Tampa Bay had moderate levels of sediment contaminants but still supported a relatively healthy benthic community. These five dredged holes are recommended to be maintained in their current state. The Culbreath Bayou South, MacDill AFB Beach and MacDill AFB Docks dredged holes all had moderate to high levels of some sediment contaminants and a poor benthic community during the fall season. The Ft. Desoto and Bay Point dredged holes had the lowest rankings due to low bottom dissolved oxygen concentrations and degraded benthic communities. The Bay Point dredged hole in Old Tampa Bay had the lowest ranking overall and may be a good candidate for mitigation. Results from the restored McKay Bay dredged hole indicated that the benthic infaunal community has improved with higher species richness and composition, abundance and higher Tampa Bay Benthic Index scores then during the pre-restoration period. However, low bottom dissolved oxygen during the fall and elevated sediment concentrations of several contaminants including lead, PAH’s and DDT were evident. Periodic monitoring in the future is recommended to continue to evaluate the recovery of this site. iii Table of Contents Acknowledgements ....................................................................................................................................... ii Abstract ........................................................................................................................................................ iii Table of Contents ......................................................................................................................................... iv List of Figures ................................................................................................................................................ v List of Tables ................................................................................................................................................. v Introduction .................................................................................................................................................. 1 Methods ........................................................................................................................................................ 2 Sample Locations ...................................................................................................................................... 2 Field Sampling ........................................................................................................................................... 2 Laboratory Analysis ................................................................................................................................... 4 Data Classification and Analysis ................................................................................................................ 4 Results and Discussion .................................................................................................................................. 5 Bay Point ................................................................................................................................................... 5 Culbreath Bayou North ........................................................................................................................... 12 Culbreath Bayou South ........................................................................................................................... 20 Georgetown ............................................................................................................................................ 26 MacDill AFB Docks................................................................................................................................... 33 MacDill AFB Beach .................................................................................................................................. 41 Venetian Isles .......................................................................................................................................... 49 Ft.

The Planning Commission is required to make recommendations to the Tampa City Council on all proposed changes to the Imagine 2040: Tam pa Comprehensive Plan pursuant to Chapter 163, Part II, Florida Statutes and Chapter 97-351, Laws of Florida as amended. Plan Amendment TA/CPA 17-05 is a privately initiated request to amend the Imagine 2040: Tampa Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Plan Map. The proposed amendment would allow for higher residential density. The subject site is located in the South Tampa Planning District, on the southwest corner of West Roland Street and South Sterling Avenue. The request is to change the Future Land Use designation for an approximate 0.19- acre subject site from Residential-10 (R-10) to Residential-20 (R-20). Currently, the site is being used as a single family home. The proposed Plan Amendment, which allows consideration of up to 20 units per acre, would allow for the subject site to see a potential maximum of three residential units on site. The maximum Floor Area Ratio would also increase, from the current 0.35 to a 0.50. Under the adopted Residential-10 category, the subject site could be utilized for single family detached residential development with limited townhomes considered.
