Report produced by Florida FWC - Fish and Wildlife Research Institue on: Tuesday, January 15, 2013 For additional information, please contact FWC-FWRI Center for Spatial Analysis (727) 896-8626 INLET SUMMARY SHEET

SITE: Old Rhodes, Broad Creek, and Angelfish Creek Channels, Dade and Monroe Counties, Florida

DATE AND TIME OF ORIGINAL FIELD SURVEY [TIDE]: 23 June 1994; 1430 [Low @ 1511 (-0.7); Ocean Reef Harbor, Key Largo]

UPDATED: In October 2011 using imagery collected in 2010 and 2011.

RANKING (DEGREE OF DIFFICULTY): (see ranking scale)

B.

PRINCIPAL RESOURCES AT RISK: Mangroves, wading birds, and the American crocodile. Marina facilities and boats. For further information refer to the recent ESI map and data and the GRP.

PRELIMINARY PROTECTION STRATEGY: Use a combination of deflection boom and protection boom to divert oil away from the main inlet channel. Also place protection boom obliquely across some of the inlet channels themselves. Open water collection would be the most efficient means of recovering spilled product in this area. Therefore, we are proposing that a skimmer system be placed outside the main inlet area to do open water collection. Staging a land-based clean-up operation would be difficult in this rather remote area.
