  • Initial Draft – for Discussion Purposes Only
    Initial Draft – For Discussion Purposes Only Draft South Florida Canal Aquatic Life Study October 29, 2012 1 Initial Draft – For Discussion Purposes Only Draft South Florida Canal Aquatic Life Study Background and Introduction The Central & Southern Florida (C&SF) Project, which was authorized by Congress in 1948, has dramatically altered the waters of south Florida. The current C&SF Project includes 2600 miles of canals, over 1300 water control structures, and 64 pump stations1. The C&SF Project, which is operated by the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), provides water supply, flood control, navigation, water management, and recreational benefits to south Florida. As a part of the C&SF, there are four major canals running from Lake Okeechobee to the lower east coast – the West Palm Beach Canal (42 miles long), Hillsboro Canal (51 miles), North New River Canal (58 miles) and Miami canal (85 miles). In addition, there are many more miles of primary, secondary and tertiary canals operated as a part of or in conjunction with the C&SF or as a part of other water management facilities within the SFWMD. Other entities operating associated canals include counties and special drainage districts. There is a great deal of diversity in the design, construction and operation of these canals. The hydrology of the canals is highly manipulated by a series of water control structures and levees that have altered the natural hydroperiods and flows of the South Florida watershed on regional to local scales. Freshwater and estuarine reaches of water bodies are delineated by coastal salinity structures operated by the SFWMD.

  • St. Lucie and Indian River Counties Water Resources Study
    St. Lucie and Indian River Counties Water Resources Study Final Summary Report November 2009 Prepared for: South Florida Water Management District St. Johns River Water Management District St Lucie and Indian River Counties Water Resource Study St Lucie and Indian River Counties Water Resources Study Executive Summary Study Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential for capturing excess water that is currently being discharged to the Indian River Lagoon in northern St. Lucie County and southern Indian River County and making it available for beneficial uses. The study also evaluated the reconnection of the C-25 Basin in the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) and C-52 in the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) so that available water supplies could be conveyed to meet demands across jurisdictional boundaries. The study objectives were to: Identify the quantity and timing of water available for diversion and storage; Identify water quality information needed to size water quality improvement facilities; Identify and provide cost estimates for the improvements and modifications to the existing conveyance systems necessary for excess runoff diversion and storage; Identify, develop cost estimates, and evaluate conceptual alternatives for storing excess runoff, and Provide conceptual designs and cost estimates for the highest ranked alternative in support of feasibility analysis and a future Basis of Design Report. Study Process The study process consisted of the following activities: Data compilation and analysis, Identification of alternative plans, Evaluation of alternative plans, Identification of the preferred plan, and Development of an implementation strategy. St Lucie and Indian River Counties Water Resource Study Formal stakeholder meetings were conducted throughout the study.

  • Stormwater Management Master Plan Updates There Are 16 Defined
    Stormwater Management Master Plan Updates There are 16 defined watersheds in Volusia County. Stormwater Management Master Plans (SWMP) have been prepared for the 11 of the watersheds, with the concentration on the urbanized basins. Many of these SWMPs were prepared in the 90’s and are currently over 20 years old. These plans need to be updated to address current corporate boundaries and responsibilities and to address current priorities. The SWMP updates proposed are for the Indian River Lagoon, the Halifax River, the Tomoka River and Spruce Creek. The studies will update the stormwater system improvements in these watersheds and analyze for water quantity and water quality impacts to the receiving water bodies, each of which is an impaired water body. Current Situation The Indian River Lagoon, Halifax River, Tomoka River and Spruce Creek SWMPs were completed in the 90s prior to the cities in these areas completing SWMPs. Each of these basins is an impaired water body with Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL) established. A Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP) has been completed for the Indian River Lagoon and the BMAP process has begun for the Halifax River (Northern Coastal Basin). Future BMAPs are scheduled for the Tomoka River and Spruce Creek basins. The goal of the SWMP Updates is to review and update Volusia County’s previous SWMPs with a focus on water quality and projects that serve areas within unincorporated Volusia County. Project The preparation of a Stormwater Management Master Plan Update for these watersheds will include: A review of previous SWMPs to determine if capital projects recommended at that time may still be recommended for grant applications An evaluation of potential water quality benefits resulting from altering or increasing stormwater maintenance practices An evaluation of water quality conditions to propose additional improvement alternatives and quantify resultant pollutant load reductions The majority of the land uses in these basins is urban and fall within city limits.

  • 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.
