This statute requires that either a Water Management District (WMD) or the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) establish minimum flows for surface watercourses and minimum levels for groundwaters and surface waters. The statutory description of a minimum flow is “the limit at which further withdrawals would be significantly harmful to the water resources or ecology of the area” (Ch. 373.042 (1)(a), F.S.). The statute provides additional guidance to the WMDs and DEP on how to establish MFLs, including how they may be calculated, using the “best information available,” to reflect “seasonal variations,” when appropriate. Protection of non-consumptive uses also are to be considered as part of the process, but the decision on whether to provide for protection of non-consumptive uses is to be made by the Governing Board of the WMD or the DEP (Ch.

Seaton, Secretary GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Thomas B. Nolan, Director GEOLOGICAL SURVEY CIRCULAR 382 INDEX OF SURFACE-WATER RECORDS TO SEPTEMBER 30,1955 PART 2. SOUTH ATLANTIC SLOPE AND EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO BASINS By P. R. Speer and A. B. Goodwin Washington, D. C., 1956 Free on application to the Geological Survey, Washington 25, D. C. INDEX OF SURFACE-WATER RECORDS TO SEPTEMBER 30,1955 PAET 2. SOUTH ATLANTIC SLOPE AND EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO BASINS By P. R Speer and A. B. Goodwin EXPLANATION This index lists the streamflow and reservoir stations in the South Atlantic slope and Eastern Gulf of Mexico basins for which records have been or are to be published in reports of the Geological Survey for periods prior to September 30, 1955. Periods of record for the same station published by other agencies are listed only when they contain more detailed information or are for periods not reported in publications of the Geological Survey. The stations are listed in the downstream order first adopted for use in the 1951 series of water-supply papers on surface-water supply of the United States. Starting at the headwater of each stream all stations are listed in a downstream direction. Tributary streams are indicated by indention and are inserted between main-stem stations in the order in which they enter the main stream. To indicate the rank of any tributary on which a record is available and the stream to which it is immediately tributary, each indention in the listing of stations represents one rank.

This Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report may not contain all data available within the Community Map Repository. It is advisable to contact the community repository for any additional data. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) may revise and republish part or all of this FIS report at any time. In addition, FEMA may revise part of this FIS report by the Letter of Map Revision process, which does not involve republication or redistribution of the FIS report. Therefore, users should consult with community officials and check the Community Map Repository to obtain the most current FIS report components. Selected Flood Insurance Rate Map panels for this community contain information that was previously shown separately on the corresponding Flood Boundary and Floodway Map panels (e.g., floodways, cross sections). In addition, former flood hazard zone designations have been changed as follows: Old Zone(s) New Zone Al through A30 AE V1 through V30 VE B X C X Initial Countywide FIS Effective Date: September 26, 2014 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.0 INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................................ 1 1.1 Purpose of Study ............................................................................................................

  • Salinity Tolerances for the Major Biotic Components Within the Anclote River and Anchorage and Nearby Coastal Waters
    Salinity Tolerances for the Major Biotic Components within the Anclote River and Anchorage and Nearby Coastal Waters October 2003 Prepared for: Tampa Bay Water 2535 Landmark Drive, Suite 211 Clearwater, Florida 33761 Prepared by: Janicki Environmental, Inc. 1155 Eden Isle Dr. N.E. St. Petersburg, Florida 33704 For Information Regarding this Document Please Contact Tampa Bay Water - 2535 Landmark Drive - Clearwater, Florida Anclote Salinity Tolerances October 2003 FOREWORD This report was completed under a subcontract to PB Water and funded by Tampa Bay Water. i Anclote Salinity Tolerances October 2003 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The comments and direction of Mike Coates, Tampa Bay Water, and Donna Hoke, PB Water, were vital to the completion of this effort. The authors would like to acknowledge the following persons who contributed to this work: Anthony J. Janicki, Raymond Pribble, and Heidi L. Crevison, Janicki Environmental, Inc. ii Anclote Salinity Tolerances October 2003 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Seawater desalination plays a major role in Tampa Bay Water’s Master Water Plan. At this time, two seawater desalination plants are envisioned. One is currently in operation producing up to 25 MGD near Big Bend on Tampa Bay. A second plant is conceptualized near the mouth of the Anclote River in Pasco County, with a 9 to 25 MGD capacity, and is currently in the design phase. The Tampa Bay Water desalination plant at Big Bend on Tampa Bay utilizes a reverse osmosis process to remove salt from seawater, yielding drinking water. That same process is under consideration for the facilities Tampa Bay Water has under design near the Anclote River.

  • A Percent-Of-Flow Approach for Managing Reductions of Freshwater Inflows from Impounded Rivers to Southwest Florida Estuaries

The natural flow regime of the contributing river is considered to be the baseline for assessing the effects of withdrawals. Development of the percent-of-flow approach has emphasized the interaction of freshwater inflow with the overlap of stationary and dynamic habitat components in tidal river zones of larger estuarine systems. Since the responses of key estuarine characteristics (e.g., isohaline locations, residence times) to freshwater inflow are frequently nonlinear, the approach is designed to prevent impacts to estuarine resources during sensitive low-inflow periods and to allow water supplies to become gradually more available as inflows increase.

  • Chapter 62-302: Surface Water Quality Standards
    Presented below are water quality standards that are in effect for Clean Water Act purposes. EPA is posting these standards as a convenience to users and has made a reasonable effort to assure their accuracy. Additionally, EPA has made a reasonable effort to identify parts of the standards that are not approved, disapproved, or are otherwise not in effect for Clean Water Act purposes. blue – not a standard black – standard TCHAPTER 62-302: WATER QUALITY STANDARDS Effective April 30, 2018 In instances where the EPA has determined that certain provisions are not considered new or revised water quality standards, the Agency has attempted to indicate those in blue text. However, the font color indicated within this document, should not be interpreted as the official position of the Agency, and primarily addresses recent reviews by the EPA. For more detailed explanations on the EPA’s analysis and rationale related to decisions of new or revised water quality standards, see the Agency’s historical decision documents and associated records or contact the appropriate Agency staff. Additionally, arrow boxes found in the margins of this document direct the reader to other new or revised water quality standards which are related to provisions found in Chapter 62-302 but are found in documents outside of the regulations and are generally incorporated by reference. (See Attachments A-E of this document). The State of Florida recently revised the table of surface water criteria set out at section 62-302, F.A.C., to incorporate new human health criteria and designated uses promulgated by the state in 2016.
