  • Blue-Green Algal Bloom Weekly Update Reporting June 26 - July 1, 2020

    BLUE-GREEN ALGAL BLOOM WEEKLY UPDATE REPORTING JUNE 26 - JULY 1, 2020 SUMMARY There were 14 reported site visits in the past six days (6/26-7/1), with 16 samples collected. Algal bloom conditions were observed by the samplers at 11 sites. Satellite imagery from 6/29 shows bloom potential in Lake Okeechobee on approximately 45% coverage concentrated in the center of the lake, while visible portions of the Caloosahatchee and St. Lucie rivers and estuaries show no observable bloom activity. Over the course of the week, the area of potential algal bloom has decreased in open waters and intensified along the northwestern and northeastern shorelines. Satellite imagery from 6/29 for the St. Johns River is partially obscured by cloud cover, but shows little bloom potential in visible portions of Lake George or on the mainstem of the St. Johns River downstream of Lake George. The imagery indicates there may be an uptick on some of the lakes associated with the St. Johns River System. Please keep in mind that bloom potential is subject to change due to rapidly changing environmental conditions or satellite inconsistencies (i.e., wind, rain, temperature or stage). On 6/29, South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) staff sampled the C43 Canal – Upstream of S77, C43 – Upstream of S79 and Lake Okeechobee – S308C (Lakeside). The Lake Okeechobee – S308C sample and C43 Canal – Upstream of S79 were both dominated by Microcystis aeruginosa, while the C43 Canal – Upstream of S77 had no dominant algal taxon. No cyanotoxins were detected in these three samples. On 6/29, the St.

    Blue-Green Algal Bloom Weekly Update Reporting March 26 - April 1, 2021

    BLUE-GREEN ALGAL BLOOM WEEKLY UPDATE REPORTING MARCH 26 - APRIL 1, 2021 SUMMARY There were 12 reported site visits in the past seven days (3/26 – 4/1), with 12 samples collected. Algal bloom conditions were observed by the samplers at seven of the sites. The satellite imagery for Lake Okeechobee and the Caloosahatchee and St. Lucie estuaries from 3/30 showed low bloom potential on visible portions of Lake Okeechobee or either estuary. The best available satellite imagery for the St. Johns River from 3/26 showed no bloom potential on Lake George or visible portions of the St. Johns River; however, satellite imagery from 3/26 was heavily obscured by cloud cover. Please keep in mind that bloom potential is subject to change due to rapidly changing environmental conditions or satellite inconsistencies (i.e., wind, rain, temperature or stage). On 3/29, South Florida Water Management District staff collected a sample from the C43 Canal – S77 (Upstream). The sample was dominated by Microcystis aeruginosa and had a trace level [0.42 parts per billion (ppb)] of microcystins detected. On 3/29, Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) staff collected a sample from Lake Okeechobee – S308 (Lakeside) and at the C44 Canal – S80. The Lake Okeechobee – S308 (Lakeside) sample was dominated by Microcystis aeruginosa and had a trace level (0.79 ppb) of microcystins detected. The C44 Canal – S80 sample had no dominant algal taxon and had a trace level (0.34 ppb) of microcystins detected. On 3/29, Highlands County staff collected a sample from Huckleberry Lake – Canal Entrance.

Home to more than 1,000 freshwater lakes and rivers, there is no doubt how this natural wonderland received its moniker. Other Lake County superlatives include the ridges of peaks and valleys unseen in any other area of Florida and endless acres of preserves to include access to three state parks, one state forest, one national wildlife refuge and one national forest. Lake County Vacation Guide - 3 Long & Scott Farms produces Zellwood Sweet Corn, pickle cucumbers, red & green cabbage and other produce. In addition, the farm features a country market, seasonal corn mazes, hayrides and farm tours (352-383-6900). With this variety of open spaces and crisp, clear waterways popular activities include...just about anything imaginable. From the traditional activities of hiking, fishing, golfing and horseback riding to the more “extreme” adventures of wakeboarding, hang gliding, off-road motorcycling and kayaking, Lake County is a one-stop vacation for outdoor enthusiasts.
  • Status of the Aquatic Plant Maintenance Program in Florida Public Waters

    Status of the Aquatic Plant Maintenance Program in Florida Public Waters

    Status of the Aquatic Plant Maintenance Program in Florida Public Waters Annual Report for Fiscal Year 2006 - 2007 Executive Summary This report was prepared in accordance with §369.22 (7), Florida Statutes, to provide an annual assessment of the control achieved and funding necessary to manage nonindigenous aquatic plants in intercounty waters. The authority of the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) as addressed in §369.20 (5), Florida Statutes, extends to the management of nuisance populations of all aquatic plants, both indigenous and nonindigenous, and in all waters accessible to the general public. The aquatic plant management program in Florida’s public waters involves complex operational and financial interactions between state, federal and local governments as well as private sector compa- nies. A summary of plant acres controlled in sovereignty public waters and associated expenditures contracted or monitored by the DEP during Fiscal Year 2006-2007 is presented in the tables on page 42 of this report. Florida’s aquatic plant management program mission is to reduce negative impacts from invasive nonindigenous plants like water hyacinth, water lettuce and hydrilla to conserve the multiple uses and functions of public lakes and rivers. Invasive plants infest 95 percent of the 437 public waters inventoried in 2007 that comprise 1.25 million acres of fresh water where fishing alone is valued at more than $1.5 billion annually. Once established, eradicating invasive plants is difficult or impossible and very expensive; therefore, continuous maintenance is critical to sustaining navigation, flood control and recreation while conserving native plant habitat on sovereignty state lands at the lowest feasible cost.

    Historical Resources

    Application for Corridor Extension Historical Resources Historical Resources Although the Green Mountain Scenic Byway CME considers the proposed corridor eligible for designation on the strength of its recreational and natural resources, the corridor extension could be designated on the strength of its historical resources. The City of Mount Dora has created a Historic Preservation Review Area which is located within a larger National Register of Historic Places District. The entire Review Area is included within the proposed corridor extension. The extension connects the historic downtown of Winter Garden with the historic downtown of Mount Dora. Narrative The colonization of Florida by the Spanish proved disastrous to the Native Americans. Waves of epidemics of infectious diseases introduced from Europe crashed upon the Native Americans. Between 1565, the year that the Spanish founded St. Augustine, and 1595, when serious Catholic missionary attempts began, it is estimated that the Timucua speaking population had plummeted from about 150,000 to about 50,000. To add to the devastation of disease, savage raids by Creek and Yamasee Indians, often supported by Carolina colonists, further reduced the population. By 1700, the Timucua had been reduced to about 1,000 people. The remaining Timucua attempted to seek refuge from the raids at St. Augustine, but by 1753 only 136 Timucua remained. When the British took Florida from Spain in 1763, the few that were left were expelled from the St. Augustine area. A pitifully few Timucua moved south and tried to settle on the Tomoka River. It is possible that their descendants eventually joined the Seminoles. The Seminoles were originally part of the Creek Confederacy.

    St. Johns River Water Supply Impact Study (WSIS) Michael G. Cullum, P.E. Chief, Bureau of Engineering & Hydro Science St. Johns River Water Management District The Water Supply Impact study is the most comprehensive and rigorous investigation of the St. Johns River ever conducted. Major Conclusions • The St. Johns River can be used as an alternative water supply source with no more than negligible or minor effects. • Future land use changes, completion of the Upper St. Johns River Basin Project, and sea level rise reduce the effects of water withdrawals. • Potential for environmental effects varies along the river’s length. • The study provides peer-reviewed tools for use by the District and others. National Academy of Sciences National Research Council (NRC) Peer Review • Three-year process working with the NRC peer review committee. • Committee consisted of nine experts. • Six multi-day meetings, field trips and numerous teleconferences. • NRC ̶ 105 page report, December 2011 NRC Concluding Comment “The overall strategy of the study and the way it was implemented were appropriate and adequate to address the goals that the District established for the WSIS.” The first step: - Understand hydrology and hydraulics and predict the changes - Resulting from potential water withdrawals. • Watershed hydrology models predict inflows into the river. • River hydrodynamic model predicts river flow, level, and salinity.

    Assessment of Cyanotoxins in Florida's Lakes, Reservoirs And

    Assessment of Cyanotoxins in Florida’s Lakes, Reservoirs and Rivers by Christopher D. Williams BCI Engineers and Scientists, Inc. Lakeland, FL. John W. Burns Andrew D. Chapman Leeanne Flewelling St. Johns River Water Management District Palatka, FL. Marek Pawlowicz Florida Department of Health/Bureau of Laboratories Jacksonville, FL. Wayne Carmichael Wright State University Dayton, OH. 2001 Executive Summary EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are population increases of algae above normal background levels and are defined by their negative impacts on the environment, the economy, and human health. Historically, many of Florida's largest and most utilized freshwater and estuarine systems have been plagued by occasional blooms of harmful algae. During the last decade, however, the frequency, duration, and concentration levels of these blooms in freshwater and brackish water have increased significantly, primarily due to changes in land utilization, changes in hydrology, increases in nutrient runoff, loss of aquatic vegetation, and a climate that is very conducive to algal growth and proliferation. In 1998, the Florida Harmful Algal Bloom Task Force was established to determine the extent to which HABs pose a problem for the state of Florida. Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) were identified as top research priorities due to their potential to produce toxic chemicals and contaminate natural water systems. In June 1999, the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) initiated a collaborative study in conjunction with the Florida Marine Research Institute, the Florida Department of Health, and Wright State University to determine the geographical distribution of various types of toxin-producing blue-green algae in Florida's surface waters and to positively identify any algal toxins present in these waters.
