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. -

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. -

Gann: Top: mahogany mistletoe (Phoradendron rubrum), a tropical species that grows only on Key Largo, and one of South Florida’s rarest species. Mahogany poachers and habitat loss in the 1970s brought this species to near extinction in South Florida. Bottom: fuzzywuzzy airplant (Tillandsia pruinosa), a tropical epiphyte that grows in several conservation areas in and around the Big Cypress Swamp. This and other rare epiphytes are threatened by poaching, hydrological change, and exotic pest plant invasions. Funding for Rare Plants of South Florida was provided by The Elizabeth Ordway Dunn Foundation, National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, and the Steve Arrowsmith Fund. Major funding for the Floristic Inventory of South Florida, the research program upon which this manual is based, was provided by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and the Steve Arrowsmith Fund. Nemastylis floridana Small Celestial Lily South Florida Status: Critically imperiled. One occurrence in five conservation areas (Dupuis Reserve, J.W. Corbett Wildlife Management Area, Loxahatchee Slough Natural Area, Royal Palm Beach Pines Natural Area, & Pal-Mar). Taxonomy: Monocotyledon; Iridaceae. Habit: Perennial terrestrial herb. Distribution: Endemic to Florida. Wunderlin (1998) reports it as occasional in Florida from Flagler County south to Broward County. -

Water-Quality Assessment of Southern Florida: an Overview of Available Information on Surface and Ground-Water Quality and Ecology
Water-Quality Assessment of Southern Florida: An Overview of Available Information on Surface and Ground-Water Quality and Ecology By Kirn H. Haag, Ronald L. Miller, Laura A. Bradner, and David S. McCulloch U.S. Geological Survey Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4177 Prepared as part of the National Water-Quality Assessment Program Tallahassee, Florida 1996 FOREWORD The mission of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is to assess the quantity and quality of the earth resources of the Nation and to provide information that will assist resource managers and policymakers at Federal, State, and local levels in making sound decisions. Assessment of water-quality conditions and trends is an important part of this overall mission. One of the greatest challenges faced by water-resources scientists is acquiring reliable information that will guide the use and protection of the Nation's water resources. That challenge is being addressed by Federal, State, interstate, and local water-resource agencies and by many academic institutions. These organizations are collecting water-quality data for a host of purposes that includes: compliance with permits and water-supply standards; development of remediation plans for a specific contamination problem; operational decisions on industrial, wastewater, or water-supply facilities; and research on factors that affect water quality. An additional need for water-quality information is to provide a basis on which regional and national-level policy decisions can be based. Wise decisions must be based on sound information. As a society we need to know whether certain types of water-quality problems are isolated or ubiquitous, whether there are significant differences in conditions among regions, whether the conditions are changing over time, and why these conditions change from place to place and over time. -

Decapoda, Palaemonidae) 1) By
NEW DISTRIBUTION' RECORDS FOR SPECIES OF MACROBRACHIUM WITH NOTES ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE GENUS IN FLORIDA (DECAPODA, PALAEMONIDAE) 1) BY LIPKE B. HOLTHUIS Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden, Netherlands AND ANTHONY J. PROVENZANO, JR. Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences,University of Miami, Florida, U.S.A. The palaemonid shrimp genus ?Ylacrobrachium was known to be represented in Florida waters by four species: M, acanthuriis (Wiegmann, 1836) (Schmitt, 1933: 313, 314, St. Augustine, Miami River, Coconut Grove; Hedgpeth, 1949: 31, fig. 5, St. Augustine, Coconut Grove; Holthuis, 1952: 50, St. Augustine, Daytona Beach, Sebastian, Fort Pierce, Boca Raton, Miami), At. ohione (Smith, 1879) (Holthuis, 1952: 69, St. John's River), At. olfe;-sil (Wiegmann, 1836) (Schmitt, 1933: 315, St. Augustine; Hedgpeth, 1949: 35, fig. 5, St. Augustine; Holthuis, 1952: 100, St. Augustine, Silver Glen Springs) and M. carcinus (L., 1758) (Schmitt, 1933: 313, 314, 316, St. Augustine, Silver Springs and Miami River; Hedgpeth, 1949: 32, fig. 5, St. Augustine, Miami, and Big Pine Key; Holthuis, 1952: 123, St. Augustine, Silver Glen Springs, Miami River, Big Pine Key). All of these, with the exception of M. olfersii, have a wide range in the southern U.S.A. Outside its range in South and Central America, M. olfersii so far was only known from north Florida. Recent collecting in south Florida waterways has revealed the presence of two additional species, neither of which had been reported from the U.S.A. before. The purpose of this note is to record the occurrence of these two species and to extend southward the known range of M.
