  • 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.

  • TMDL Report: Nutrient and Unionized Ammonia Tmdls for Lake Jesup, Wbids 2981 and 2981A
    FINAL 4/14/06 FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Division of Water Resource Management, Bureau of Watershed Management CENTRAL DISTRICT • MIDDLE ST. JOHNS BASIN TMDL Report Nutrient and Unionized Ammonia TMDLs for Lake Jesup, WBIDs 2981 and 2981A Xueqing Gao April 14, 2006 Executive Summary This report presents the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for nutrients and unionized ammonia for Lake Jesup (including Lake Jesup outlet), in the Middle St. Johns Basin. The lake was verified as impaired for nutrients and unionized ammonia due to elevated annual average Trophic State Index (TSI) values and exceedances of the unionized ammonia criterion (0.02 milligrams per liter [mg/L]), and was included on the Verified List of impaired waters for the Middle St. Johns Basin that was adopted by Secretarial Order on May 27, 2004. According to the 1999 Florida Watershed Restoration Act (FWRA), Chapter 99-223, Laws of Florida, once a waterbody is included on the Verified List, a TMDL must be developed. The purpose of the TMDL is to establish the allowable loadings of pollutants to Lake Jesup that would restore the waterbody so that it meets its applicable water quality criteria for nutrients and unionized ammonia. The nutrient TMDL for Lake Jesup was developed through four major steps: 1. Establish the TSI target 2. Model the existing nutrient load 3. Model the load that would achieve the TSI target (the TMDL) 4. Estimate the percent load reduction needed to meet the TMDL. To establish the TSI target, the Department first estimated the background TSI for the lake by comparing results from several methods, including a historic sedimentation rate method, literature published values, a TSI defined by the Florida Impaired Waters Rule, an Ecoregion approach, a hydrogeomorphologic method, and a model simulated background condition.

  • 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.

  • 5. CONSERVATION ELEMENT Data, Inventory, and Analysis
    CITY OF ALTAMONTE SPRINGS CONSERVATION ELEMENT 5. CONSERVATION ELEMENT Data, Inventory, and Analysis INTRODUCTION The purpose of the Conservation Element is to promote the conservation, use, and protection of natural resources within the City of Altamonte Springs. The objective of the Conservation Element Data Inventory and Analysis (DIA) Report is to document the conditions for various natural resources found within the City and identify key community priorities for conservation strategies. The DIA Report also examines the current and projected water needs for the community over the 20-year planning horizon (2030) to ensure adequate water supply is available to support future demands. Together, this information serves as the foundation for goals, objectives, and policies prepared to guide future development within the City of Altamonte Springs. DATA AND ANALYSIS This section addresses the data inventory and analysis requirements of §9J-5.013(1), Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), supportive to the goals, objectives, policies and implementation programs for the Conservation Element. Natural resources may include water, wetlands, floodplains, groundwater, air, minerals, soil, wildlife, and vegetative resources. Surface Water Quality Surface water resources within the City of Altamonte Springs generally consist of the Little Wekiva River and several lakes. Little Wekiva River The Little Wekiva River flows north from Lake Lawne in Orange County through Lake Lotus and Trout Lake in Altamonte Springs. It continues to flow in a northerly direction at the City limits into one of the southern arms of the Wekiva Swamp and eventually on into the Wekiva River. Extensive urban development along the Little Wekiva River has resulted in a host of problems including increased rate of flow and velocities, minimal upstream stormwater storage and treatment due to development occurring before current stormwater regulations, erosion and flooding, and degradation of the river’s water quality from the movement and deposition of sediments.

    the Shellcracker FLORIDA CHAPTER OF THE AMERICAN FISHERIES SOCIETY http://www.sdafs.org/flafs April, 2011 President’s Message: Greetings from South Florida, folks. For those of you who weren’t able to attend in January, you missed one heck of a Southern Division meeting in Tampa. With 408 attendees and over 200 individual oral and presentations, we’re still getting complements on how well it turned out. I appreciate all of the help that folks around the chapter offered, but special thanks need to be given to Eric Nagid, Linda Lombardi-Carlson, Kerry Flaherty, Andy Strickland, Wes Porak, and the rest of the planning committee for their tireless efforts to make this meeting a success. As many of you know, or perhaps are fast learning, this is a challenging time to be involved in fisheries sci- ence. Federal and state employees are both facing such issues as departmental hiring freezes, field and travel budget reductions, and an increasing individual workload. On the academic side, many colleges and universities are choosing to not back-fill positions upon retirements and are similarly increasing individual workloads on remaining faculty, not to mention the general decrease in external grant and contract funding that served in the past to support many of us and our research in graduate school. We may find our work personally fulfilling, and we often get to see things during our careers that would make many people envious, but I wish sometimes I knew where the public got its perception of the cushy life of the fisheries biologist! Now, it’s one thing to complain and yet another to offer solutions, as many of us likely heard from our parents growing up.
