It compares the results to studies conducted across the United States. The report evaluates the data reported in the literature concerning the treatment efficiencies associated with various stormwater management systems. The authors conclude that stormwater runoff is highly variable among different land use areas, and that stormwater treatment systems should be chosen on a site-specific basis.

Show moreUnder provisions of the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1979 designated the Biscayne aquifer is the sole or principal source of potable water in southeast Florida. The Florida Department of Environmental Regulation (FDER) in 1980 submitted a conceptual study to EPA designed to develop a strategy for protecting the groundwater resource. In February 1981, EPA approved the FDER aquifer protection study and the 208 Areawide Clean Water Management Programs were awarded lead roles in implementing the strategy in Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties. The program submitted for the tri-county area generally consists of three phases: developing time of pollutant travel contours around selected existing wellfields, identifying land uses and sources of pollution within contours, and devleoping wellfield protection ordinances. Camp Dresser & McKee Inc. (CDM) was subsequently selected by a joint committee of representatives from the tri-county 208 Groups, the FDER, the United States Geological Survey, and the South Florida Water Management District to complete the first phase of the program, i.e. the development of pollutant travel time contours around approximately 70 existing wellfields in Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties. The methodology and procedures used to develop the travel times are described in this report.

Show moreIn south Florida, controversy has existed among urban, agricultural, fisheries, tourism, and natural resource interests over methods to restore the Everglades National Park and Florida Bay. Currently, elevating the water table and increasing the flow of water to Everglades National Park in order to restore more natural hydroperiods is proposed as a solution by the Army Corps of Engineers (COE), South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), and the Everglades National Park (ENP), based on studies by hydrologists and researchers at those agencies., However, the impact that these water management decisions may have on agriculture in the area has not been addressed to the satisfaction of the local agricultural community. This report summarizes and analyzes many years of work completed by the USACOE, the SFWMD, and the ENP, and makes recommendations for additional work that may improve the planning, design and operation of water management facilities in the south Dade County area.

- Abstract/Description
-
This report describes a probability analysis of salinity conditions in the St. Sebastian River estuary, taking into account the effects of freshwater discharge over a period from May 1992 to March 1996. Two possible management alternatives are analyzed: stormwater detention and stormwater retention. Tidal and freshwater flow conditions and probabilities are presented and discussed, as are the range and natural variability of salinity conditions in the estuary.
