Subject: Final Action on Florida's 2010 Group Three Update to the Section 303(d) list for

the State of Florida

Dear Mr. Sole:

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Region 4 has completed its review of

the Florida Department of Environmental Protection's (FDEP) Group Three Update to Florida's

section 303(d) list, as approved in 1998 and updated on June 11, 2003. The Group Three

Update, which was submitted on March 30, 2010, identifies water quality limited segments

(WQLS) in the Group Three basin groups, pursuant to section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act

(CWA or the Act). EPA has determined that Florida's Group Three 2010 Update substantially

meets the intent of section 303(d) of the Act and EPA's implementing regulations, and is

partially approving that submission.

Specifically, EPA approves Florida's decision to include additional Group Three waters

and associated pollutants on the section 303(d) list, as set out in Appendix B of the enclosed

decision document. EPA's partial approval of Florida's submission is made with the

understanding that the two waters identified in Appendix C of the Decision Document will be

included on EPA's approved section 303(d) list for Group Three basins in Florida. The waters

included in Appendix C will be given a low priority, without a specific date for Total Maximum

Daily Load development, in order to allow FDEP time to more fully implement its watershed

restoration program, except as otherwise set out by the consent decree in Florida Wildlife

Federation, et al. v Carol Browner, et al., Civil Action No. 4:98CV356-WS (Northern District of

Florida).

EPA conducted a thorough review of the Group Three Update. While our review

concluded that FDEP's approach was successful for the vast majority of waterbody impairments,

EPA has identified two additional segments which FDEP did not include on the Group Three

Update. These additions reflect the need to adequately demonstrate that anthropogenic sources

do not cause or contribute to low dissolved oxygen levels in the identified segments.

Based on the above, EPA is therefore adding two WQLS to the section 303(d) list for the

State of Florida. The water quality limited segments that EPA is adding are identified in

Appendix C of the enclosed Decision Document. The complete section 303(d) list for Group

Internet Address (URL) • http://www.epa.gov

Recycled/Recyclable • Printed with Vegetable Oil Based Inks on Recycled Paper (Minimum 30% Postconsumer)

# Three basins in the State of Florida, as of the date of this action, is contained in the Appendices

of the attached Decision Document. EPA will open a public comment period to receive

comments concerning its decision to add waters and pollutants to the State's section 303(d) list.

EPA is not acting at this time on the State's failure to list Parker Bay (WBID 1141B) for

mercury in fish tissue. It is EPA's understanding that Parker Bay was inadvertently omitted from

the section 303(d) list and that FDEP intends to add Parker Bay to the list during the upcoming

list adoption for the Group Four basin groups.

The outcome of EPA's findings makes clear that the State of Florida conducted a very

extensive effort in collecting water quality information and assessing state waters. As you know,

the basis for any kind of water management activities begins and ends with the amount and

quality of information collected. On a last note, I would like to recognize the extensive public

participation process that FDEP conducted when developing the Group Three Update, including

area specific stakeholder meetings throughout the Group Three basins and the consideration of

data and information submitted by third parties. As we move through the other waterbody

groups, EPA would like to continue to work closely with your Department to successfully

implement the Clean Water Act and achieve improvements in water quality.

Sincerely,

A. Stanley Meiburg

Acting Regional Administrator

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

I Executive Summary

On March 30, 2010, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP)

submitted its Group Three 2010 update to the stat e’s previously approved section 303(d)

list to the Environmental Prot ection Agency (EPA) for review . This section 303(d) list

update submission is referred to in this document as the Group Three 2010 Update.

Florida’s Group Three 2010 submittal is an update, for waterbodies in Group Three

basins, to the state’s previous ly approved section 303(d) list. 1 

# Following its review of

Florida’s Group Three 2010 Update, EPA is a pproving that list in part and is adding

waters to the state’s secti on 303(d) list. This document summarizes EPA’s review and

the basis for the Agency’s decision.

Section 303(d)(1) of the Clean Water Act (C WA or Act) directs states to identify

those waters within their jurisdictions for which effluent limitations required by sections

301(b)(1)(A) and (B) of the Act are not stri ngent enough to implement any applicable

water quality standard (referre d to as water quality limited segments, as defined in 40

C.F.R. § 130.7), and to establish a priority ranking for such waters, taking into account

the severity of the pollution a nd the uses to be made of such waters. The section 303(d)

listing requirement applies to water qualit y limited segments impaired by pollutant

loadings from both point and/or nonpoint sources. After a state submits its section 303(d)

list to EPA, the Agency is required to approve or disapprove that list.

FDEP assessed waters for the Group Th ree 2010 Update pursuant to its approved

water quality standards, includ ing the water quality standard s contained in the Impaired

Waters Rule, commonly referred to as the IWR. Through the Florida Watershed

Restoration Act, the state legi slature directed the Florida Department of Environmental

Protection (FDEP) to develop and adopt by ru le a methodology to id entify waters that do

not meet the State’s approved water quality st andards and, therefore, are required to be

included on section 303(d) lists. See Identification of Impaired Surface Waters, Chapter

62-303, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). EPA determined certain provisions of the

IWR to be new or revise d water quality standards 2 

# and approved those standards on

February 19, 2008. 3 

# EPA views other IWR provisions as part of FDEP’s section 303(d)

listing methodologies. Consiste nt with EPA’s implementing regulations and guidance,

EPA considered these methodologies, to th e extent that they reflect a reasonable

interpretation of Florida’s water quality standards and sound science, when it reviewed

FDEP’s section 303(d) list submittals.

1 

# On September 2, 2009, EPA took action on Florida’s update to the section 303(d) list for Group One,

Two and Five basins. Complete listings of the changes to Florida’s previously approved section 303(d) list

for Group One, Two and Five basins as a result of that update are set out in EPA’s Amended Decision

Document Regarding Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s Section 303(d) List Amendments

for Basin Groups One, Two and Five.

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

Waters that are not attaining Florida’s water quality standards are identified by

FDEP as water quality limited segments and submitted to EPA as an update to Florida’s

then-current section 303(d) list. The wa ter quality standards a nd listing methodologies

contained in the IWR establish specific protocols and thresholds for assessing

waterbodies, in addition to data sufficiency and data quality requirements. The IWR

contains procedures for assessing both a quatic life use support and human health use

support. FDEP conducts these assessments ba sed on Florida’s rotating basin approach.

Florida waters are divided into five basin groups, with each group representing

approximately 20% of state watersheds. E ach year, FDEP assesses waterbodies within

one group of basins. Lists based on those basin assessments constitute updates to the

state’s then-current section 303( d) list. All five basin groups are assessed within a five

year period. All waters which were include d in Florida’s approve d 1998 section 303(d)

list will remain on Florida’s section 303(d) list, unless FDEP removes a waterbody and

EPA approves that removal.

FDEP submitted a 2002 update to EP A for review, assessing Group One

waterbodies. EPA’s decision partially appr oving that update and pa rtially disapproving

and adding waters to Florida’s section 303(d) list was challenged in court. While that

litigation, and related litig ation challenging the IWR we re pending, FDEP developed

basin group assessment reports but did not s ubmit section 303(d) lists to EPA. On

September 3, 2009, EPA approved in part and ad ded waters to FDEP’s Update for Group

One, Two and Five basins. On March 30, 2010, FDEP submitted its Group Three update

to EPA for review.

FDEP’s updated list submittal includes, among other things:

• Additional waterbodies in Group Three wh ich FDEP determined to be water

quality limited segments.

• Group Three waterbodies included on Florid a’s previously approved 1998 section

303(d) list which were determined not to need TMDLs and were, therefore,

removed from Florida’s section 303(d) list as submitted to EPA.

EPA reviewed FDEP’s submittal to determine whether the Group Three 2010

Update appropriately assessed waters base d on Florida’s water quality standards,

including those provisions of the IWR which have themselves been determined to be

water quality standards and a pproved by EPA pursuant to S ection 303(c) of the CWA.

EPA further considered whether those provisi ons of the IWR which it determined to be

listing methodologies reasonably identified wa ter quality limited segments, considering

the state’s water quality standards. Where EPA was unsure whether the methodology

was a reasonable method for identifying wa ter quality limited segments, the Region

conducted further waterbody and data analysis.

The Agency reviewed FDEP’s water body assessments for all designated uses,

based on Florida’s water quali ty standards. EPA concl uded that FDEP was largely

successful in assessing the Group Three waterbodies for attainment of designated uses

4

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

and water quality criteria, in cluding aquatic life use support and water quality criteria for

most naturally variable indi cator pollutants, aquatic life use support for water quality

criteria with a toxic effect, aquatic life use support and narr ative water quality criteria for

nutrient impairments, fish consumption use support, and use suppor t for those pollutants

with water quality criteria expres sed as an annual average.

FDEP has an extensive m onitoring network and data co llection effort. Without

the database compiled by FDEP, which contai ns millions of data points for Group Three

waterbodies, much of the analysis conducted the State and by EPA would not have been

possible.

Following EPA’s decision to approve Florida’s Group Three 2010 Update, the

current section 303(d) list fo r Group Three basins in the St ate of Florida contains:

Approved 2003 Updated section 303(d) list (Appendix A)

(+) Approved Group Three FDEP additions (Appendix B)

(+) Group Three EPA additions (Appendix C)

(-) Approved FDEP Group Three delistings (Appendix D)

The statutory and regulatory requirements relevant to section 303(d) lists, and

EPA’s review of Florida’s compliance with each requirement, are described in detail

below.

5

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

II. Statutory and Regulatory Background

A. Identification of Water Quality Limited Segments (WQLSs) for

Inclusion on the Section 303(d) List

Section 303(d)(1) of the Clean Water Act directs states to identify those waters

within their jurisdic tions for which effluent limitations required by sect ion 301(b)(1)(A)

and (B) are not stringent enough to implement any applicable water quality standard, and

to establish a priority ranking for such wate rs, taking into account the severity of the

pollution and the uses to be made of such waters. The section 303(d) listing requirement

applies to waters impaired by point and/ or nonpoint sources, pur suant to EPA’s longstanding interpretation of Section 303(d).

EPA regulations at 40 CFR 131.7(b)(1) provide that

[e]ach State shall identify those water quality-limited segments still

requiring TMDLs within its boundaries for which: (i) Technology-based

effluent limitations required by sectio ns 301(b), 306, 307, or other sections

of the Act; (ii) More stringent effl uent limitations (inc luding prohibitions)

required by either State or local auth ority preserved by section 510 of the

Act, or Federal authority (law, regulation, or tr eaty); and (iii) Other

pollution control requirements (e.g., best management practices) required

by local, State, or Federal authority are not stringent enough to implement

any water quality standards applicable to such waters.

EPA regulations at 40 CFR 130.2(j) defi ne water quality limited segment as

[a]ny segment where it is known that water quality does not meet

applicable water quality standards, and/or is not expected to meet

applicable water quality standards, even after the application of the

technology-based effluent limitations re quired by sections 301(b) and 306

of the Act.

“Water quality limited segment” may also be referred to as “WQLS,” “impaired

waterbodies,” or “impairments” in this document.

B. Consideration of Existing a nd Readily Available Water QualityRelated Data and Information

In developing section 303(d) lists, states are required to assemble and evaluate all

existing and readily available water quality-related data a nd information, including, at a

minimum, considering existing and readily available data and information about the

following categories of waters: (1) waters iden tified as partially meeting or not meeting

designated uses, or as threatened, in the st ate’s most recent section 305(b) report; (2)

waters for which dilution calculations or predictive modeling indicate nonattainment of

applicable standards; (3) waters for which water quality problems have been reported by

6

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

governmental agencies, members of the public , or academic institutions; and (4) waters

identified as impaired or threatened in any section 319 nonpoint assessment submitted to

EPA. See 40 CFR 130.7(b)(5). In addition to these minimum categories, states are

required to consider any other water quality-rel ated data and information that is existing

and readily available. EPA’s 1991 Guidance for Water Quality-Based Decisions

describes categories of water quality-related data and information that may be existing

and readily available. See Appendix C of Guidance for Water Quality-Based Decisions:

The TMDL Process , EPA Office of Water, 1991 (EPA ’s 1991 Guidance). While states

are required to evaluate all existing and read ily available water quality-related data and

information, states may reasonably decide to rely or not rely on particular data or

information in determining whether to list particular waters.

In addition to requiring states to assemb le and evaluate all existing and readily

available water quality-related data and information, EPA re gulations require states to

include, as part of their submissions to EPA, documentation to support decisions to list or

not list waters. See 40 CFR 130.7(b)(6). Such documentation includes, at a minimum,

the following information: (1) a description of the methodology used to develop the list,

(2) a description of the data and information used to identify waters, (3) a rationale for

any decision to not use any existing and read ily available data and information, and (4)

any other reasonable informa tion requested by the Region.

C. Priority Ranking

EPA regulations also codify and interpre t the requirement in Section 303(d)(1)(A)

of the Act that states establish a priority ranking for listed waters. The regulations require

states to prioritize waters on their section 303(d) lists for TMDL development and to

identify those WQLSs targeted for TMDL development in the next two years. See 40

CFR 130.7(b)(4). In prioritizing and targeting waters, states must, at a minimum, take

into account the severi ty of the pollution and the uses to be made of such waters. See

Section 303(d)(1)(A). As long as these fact ors are taken into account, the Act provides

that states establish priorities . States may consider other fa ctors relevant to prioritizing

waters for TMDL development, including im mediate programmatic needs; vulnerability

of particular waters as aqua tic habitats; recreational, economic, and aesthetic importance

of particular waters; degree of public intere st and support; and stat e or national policies

and priorities. See 57 FR 33040, 33045 (July 24, 1992) and EPA’s 1991 Guidance at 4.

III. Analysis of the Florida Depar tment of Environmental Protection’s

Submission

In reviewing FDEP’s Group Three 2010 U pdate, EPA first reviewed the listing

methodology used by the State to develop the lis t update in light of Florida’s approved

water quality standards. EPA th en reviewed the list of waters. This section describes

FDEP’s listing methodology and outlines EPA’ s evaluation of both that methodology and

the list of water quality limited segments included in the Gro up Three 2010 Update.

Where EPA was unsure whether the listing methodology identified all water quality

limited segments for a given designated use or water quality criteria, EPA reviewed water

7

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

quality data and information to determine whether any waterbodies should be added to

the section 303(d) list.

A. Florida’s Group Three 2010 Update.

FDEP submitted its section 303(d) li sts updates for Group Three to EPA for

review on March 30, 2010, including newly lis ted waterbodies and waterbodies proposed

for delisting within Group Three. All other waterbodies included on Florida’s approved

2003 section 303(d) list which we re not delisted remain on the section 303(d) list.

Details of Florida’s listing a pproach and EPA’s review of the list are described below.

1. Florida’s Water Quality Standa rds and Section 303(d) List

Development

Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act requires each State to identify and

prioritize those waters where technology-base d controls are inadequate to implement

water quality standards:

Each State shall identify those waters w ithin its boundaries for which the effluent

limitations required by section 1311(b)(1)(A) and section 1311(b)(1)(B) of this

title are not stringent enough to implement any water quality st andards applicable

to such waters.

33 U.S.C. § 1313(d)(1)(A); see also 40 C.F.R. 130.7(b) (EPA’s section 303(d) listing

regulations).

EPA’s regulations expressly provide that “[f]or purposes of listing waters under §

130.7(b), the term ‘water quality standard a pplicable to such waters’ and ‘applicable

water quality standards’ refer to those water quality standa rds establishe d under section

of the Act, including numeric criteria, narrative criteria, water body uses, and

antidegradation requirements.” 40 C.F.R. 130. 7(b)(3). EPA’s revi ew of state section

303(d) lists ensures that those lists identify water quality limit ed segments consistent with

existing state standards.

Water quality criteria can be expressed either as narrative or numeric criteria.

Numeric criteria typically esta blish either a maximum level or a range of levels of a

pollutant which can be present in the wa terbody while still atta ining water quality

standards. Narrative criteria typically describe a condition (i.e. no imbalance of flora or

fauna) which must be met for the water body to meet water quality standards.

Determining whether a waterbody is meeting water quality standards for a narrative

criterion generally involves the identifica tion of reference points against which the

waterbody can be evaluated. In the cont ext of listing, EPA considers a state’s

interpretation of its water quality standard s, including how narrative criteria should be

interpreted, when that interpretation is cons istent with the underl ying narrative criterion

and is a reasonable translation of that criterion.

8

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

a. Florida’s numeric water quality criteria

The primary numeric water quality criteri a in Florida are deta iled in the Table

under 62-302.530 FAC (Table: Surface Water Qual ity Criteria). These criteria are

expressed in a number of different ways that will be discussed in more detail below.

b. Florida’s narrative water quality criteria

The primary narrative water quality criteria in Florida are set out below, with a

summary of EPA’s review of FDEP’s methodology for these narrative criteria.

• Criteria: 62-302.530(47) FAC (Nuisance Speci es): Substances in concentrations

which result in the dominance of nuisance species: none shall be present.

To implement this narrative standard , FDEP relies on Florida’s water quality

criterion for biological inte grity. That criterion, set out in Rule 62-302.530(11) FAC,

provides that biological integr ity is to be measured by percent reduction of the Shannon

Weaver Diversity Index. Florida’s water quality standards also allow the biological

integrity to be assessed through BioRecons , Stream Condition Indices, and the benthic

macroinvertebrate component of the Lake Condition Index. 4 

# Use of these biological

condition tools to assess Florida’ s narrative criteria for nuisan ce species is consistent with

the state’s water quality standards.

• Criteria: 62-302.530(47)(b) FAC (Nutri ents): In no case shall nutrient

concentrations of a body of wa ter be altered so as to cau se an imbalance in natural

populations of aquatic flora or fauna.

Florida’s water quality standards contai n provisions which translate Florida’s

narrative nutrient standard for assessment purposes, 5 

# establishing thresholds of nutrient

impairment which are “one-sided” in nature . That is, the thre sholds represent upper

boundary conditions above which a water body is not meeting its applicable water quality

standards (unless demonstrated otherwise) and is identified as impaired. In other words,

TSI or chlorophyll-a values are used to demons trate that there is an “imbalance” in flora

and fauna such that the narrative nutrient crit erion is not attained. Waters below the IWR

4 

# The IWR contains provisions that supplement Rule 62-302.530(11) by identifying additional biological

condition indices, and methods for applying those indices, for use in water quality assessment. See Rules

62-303.200 (1), (2), (8) and (22); 62-303.330(2), (3)(a), and (3)(b); 62-303.430(1), (2), and (3); and 62-

303.720(2)(b). EPA determined that these provisions constituted new or revised standards and approved

those provisions as standards in February 2008. See 2008 IWR Determination, pp 26-32 and 2008 IWR

Approval Letter.

5 

# The IWR contains provisions that translate Rule 62 -302.530(47)(b) when assessing water quality. See

Rules 62, 303.200(6), (11), (12) and (25); 62-303.350(2)(c), (3); 62-303.351(2); 62-303.352; 62-303.353;

62-303.450(1); and 62-303.720(2)(j). EPA determined that these translation provisions constituted new or

revised standards and approved those provisions as standards in February 2008. See 2008 IWR

Determination, pp 33-42 and 2008 IWR Approval Letter.

9

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

thresholds, however, are not considered “in a ttainment” of the narrativ e criterion. Rather,

waters with TSI or chlorophyll-a values belo w the threshold of impairment will continue

to be considered “unassessed” until FDEP adopts and EPA a pproves numeric criteria for

nutrients or FDEP develops other methodologie s that can be used to determine that an

imbalance of flora and fauna does not exist in a water body.

FDEP has reasonably applied its water quality standards to assess waterbodies for

attainment of the narrative nutrient standard.

2. List Development Methodology and Data Assessment

The Florida Watershed Restoration Act sets out, among other things, FDEP’s

authority to establish methodologies for id entifying water quality limited segments and

developing section 303(d ) lists. FDEP uses a watershed management approach to assess

state waters, managing the state’s water reso urces on the basis of hydrologic units, as the

framework for implementing the Watershed Restoration Act. Florida’s watershed

management program also adopted a rotating basin approach to address water quality

issues, which allows the state to achieve ma ximum effectiveness from limited monitoring

and assessment resources by concentrating specif ic functional activities in specific basins

according to an established, multi-year schedule. Florida’s basin planning process

divides 52 water basins into five ba sin groups, with each group representing

approximately 20% of state waters. The pro cess rotates through t hose basin groups over

an established five-year cycle. Information about Florida’s basin pl anning process, the

functions occurring during each year of the rota ting basin cycle, and the basins included

in each basin group are set out in more detail in Appendix E. Consistent with its rotating

basin approach, FDEP will update its section 303(d) list and 305(b) report annually and

submit an annual section 303(d) li st update to EPA for review. 6



# FDEP’s Group Three 2010 Update addr esses waterbodies in the Group Three

watersheds. The Update was de veloped in accordance with EPA’s Guidance for 2006

Assessment, Listing and Reporting Requirement s Pursuant to Sections 303(d), 305(b) and

314 of the Clean Water Act (Integrated Report Guidance ), issued on July 29, 2005 and

last updated on May 5, 2009. That guidance r ecommends that states submit Integrated

Reports to satisfy CWA requirements for bot h section 305(b) water quality reports and

section 303(d) lists of impair ed waters. EPA’s guidance a dvocates the use of a five

category approach for classifying the water qua lity standard attainment status for each

waterbody segment. Florida uses several su bcategories, in addition to the categories

included in EPA’s guidance.

6 

# FDEP submitted its first update to the state’s s ection 303(d) list under the rotating basin approach in

2002. That assessment report covered Group One basins. EPA’s decision regarding that update was

challenged in federal court. That litigation was co ncluded in 2008. Litigation challenging the IWR was

also concluded in 2008. EPA determined that certain provisions of the IWR, as amended in 2007,

constituted new or revised water quality standards and a pproved those standards pursuant to section 303(c)

of the CWA in February 2008. FDEP developed state assessment reports while the litigation was pending,

but did not submit section 303(d) list updates to EPA for review.

Category 1 Data are available to assess whether all beneficial uses are being met and

while insufficient data are available to assess whether all beneficial uses

are being met.

Category 3a No data are available to assess whet her beneficial uses are being met.

Category 3b Some data are available, but they are insufficient to assess whether

beneficial uses are being met.

Category 3c Enough data are available to meet th e requirements for the Planning List

in Rule 62-303 and the water body is pot entially impaired for one or more

designated uses.

Category 4a One or more designated uses are im paired and the TMDL is complete.

Category 4b One or more designated uses ar e impaired but no TMDL will be

developed because a proposed pollution control measure provides

reasonable assurance that the designated us es will be restored in the future.

Category 4c Impaired for one or more criteria or designated use but does not require a

TMDL because the impairment is not caused by a pollutant.

Category 4d No causative pollutant has been iden tified for impairment. Waterbody

impairments identified in this category will be submitted to EPA for

inclusion on the section 303(d) list.

Category 4e Impaired but recently completed or ongoing restoration activities are

underway to restore th e designated uses of the waterbody. All

requirements for placing the waterbo dy in Category 4b have not been

finalized or approved by FDEP. Because FDEP recognizes the ongoing

implementation of restoration activitie s with the goal of restoring water

quality, a TMDL is not scheduled at this time. Waterbody impairments

identified in this category will be submitted to EPA for inclusion on the

section 303(d) list.

Category 5 Enough data are available to meet the requirements for the Verified List in

Rule 62-303. These waters are im paired, are included on the state's

section 303(d) list, and will have TMDLs developed to restore them.

3. Public Participation Process

The Florida Department of Environmen tal Protection (FDEP) notified the public

about opportunities to participate in the de velopment of the Group Three section 303(d)

11

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

list update. The State used notices in the Florida Administrative Weekly (FAW), email

and regular mail notifications to over 1000 in terested parties; a nd notices published in

several newspapers statewide to notify the public of the list deve lopment activities.

The notifications included a brief descrip tion of the list at issue and the applicable

regulations; a state website address where inte rested parties could obt ain the draft list; a

contact name, e-mail address, regular mailing address, and phone number where

interested parties could obtain supporting information and information about planned

public meetings; the times and locations fo r public meetings; procedures for submitting

written comments; and the timetable in which a decision would be made on the list.

FDEP also posted the draft section 303(d) list on its website along with information

regarding the public part icipation opportunities.

FDEP held public meetings across th e State. Department staff provided

background information about the TMDL pr ogram, the section 303(d) list, and how

waters were assessed for impairment. Atte ndees were provided an opportunity to make

verbal comments and were requested to: (a) comment on the appropriateness of the

listing for individual water segments; (b) prov ide more recent information about the listed

waters, including water quality and bioassessm ent data; (c) provide “other information”

such as evidence of algal blooms or site speci fic studies about nutrient impairment in area

waters; and (d) provide information about planned pollution control mechanisms.

Attendees were also notified that written comments would be accepted.

The updates to Florida’s section 303(d) list which comprise the Group Three 2010

Update includes updates developed during two ba sin cycles. The first update for Group

Three basins was adopted by Secretarial Orde r on June 20, 2005, with revisions to that

update adopted by Secretaria l Order on May 12, 2006; the se cond update was adopted by

Secretarial Order on January 15, 2010. Interest ed parties were notif ied about the adopted

lists by e-mail, by publication of notices in the FAW, by notices in several newspapers

statewide, and by issuance of De partment press releases. Each Order notified interested

parties of their right to challe nge the order with in 21 days or file an appeal within 30 days

of receiving the notice.

EPA has reviewed Florida’s public partic ipation process and has concluded that

the State provided adequate public notice a nd opportunity for the public to comment on

its decision regarding the section 303(d) list in compliance with federal requirements.

4. Consideration of Existing and Readily Available Water

Quality Related Data and Information

Florida identified WQLSs in the Group Three 2010 Update based on assessment

and consideration of all existing and readily available water quality-related information

and data. The information and data include d physical, chemical, and biological data;

shellfish reclassification information; fish consumption information; and beach closure

information. The information and data were collected from the following sources:

Once all of the data and information wa s collected, FDEP screened the data to

remove any data that would not be appropria te for assessing water quality for the purpose

of identifying water quality limited segments . FDEP provided EPA a description of data

excluded from use under this assessment and the basis for that exclusion. Data were

excluded for reasons including: data were reported with ne gative values, data were

reported with values less than the detection limit, data were identified by data providers

as of suspect quality, and mercury data we re not collected and analyzed using clean

techniques. A complete list of FDEP’s data exclusion screen s is set out in Appendix G.

EPA has determined that FDEP’s screeni ng of data to remove data of suspect

quality is a reasonable scient ific approach for considering data when making decisions

regarding the identification of water quality limited segments. In each case, it was

reasonable to conclude that the sample resu lt does not provide information that can be

used to determine whether a waterbody m eets water quality sta ndards and the value

reported cannot be relied upon as evidence of impairment.

B. Review of FDEP’s Identification of Waters (40 CFR 130.7(b)(6)(i - iv))

Consistent with EPA regulations and gui dance, EPA considered Florida’s listing

methodology to the extent that it reflects a reasonab le interpretation of Florida’s water

14

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

quality standards and sound science. 7 

# In reviewing Florida’s submittal, EPA first

reviewed the methodologies set out in the IWR and used by FDEP to develop the list

update in light of Florida’s approved water quality standards, and then reviewed the

actual list of waters. This section desc ribes FDEP’s listing methodology and outlines

EPA’s evaluation of both that methodology and the actual list of im paired waterbodies

included on the Group Three 2010 Update. In cases where EPA could not determine if

the Florida’s listing methodology identified all impaired waterbodies for a given

designated use or water quality criteria, EPA conducted a review of water quality data to

determine whether any waterbodies should be added to the section 303(d) list.

The listing methodologies set out in th e IWR and used by FDEP are compared

against Florida’s approved water quality st andards as found in Chapter 62-302, FAC and

those provisions of Chapter 62-303 which EPA determined were water quality standards.

Information on monitoring procedures wa s obtained from the FDEP documents:

“Elements of Florida’s Water Monitoring and Assessment Program (March 19, 2009) and

“Standard Operating Procedures for Fiel d Activities (DEP-SOP-001/01 (March 31,

2008)).

1. Review of FDEP’s Data Guidelines

Federal regulations provide that each state “shall assemble and evaluate all

existing and readily available water quality-related data a nd information to develop the

list required by 130.7(b) (1) and 130.7(b)(2).” See 40 CFR 130.7(b)(5). The listing

methodology set out in the IWR also provides fo r FDEP to “assemble and evaluate” data

to prepare the State’s section 303(d) list and generally provide s for assessment when that

data meets certain temporal and spatial guidelines set out in the rule. The IWR

methodology contains guidelines for the co llection, evaluation, a nd use of data for

assessing water quality and impa irments to designated uses. See Rules 62-303.320 and

62-303.420, FAC.

If water quality data was available for a waterbody, but that data did not meet the

data sufficiency provisions contained in the IWR methodology, the methodology

provides that FDEP may still consider whethe r the water should be listed on Florida’s

section 303(d) list (Category 5) where (1) there are less than twenty samples, but there

are five or more samples that do not meet an applicable water quality criterion based on

at least five temporally independent samples or (2) scientifically credible and compelling

information provides overwhelming evidence of impairment. See Rule 62-303.420(7),

FAC. FDEP might also include the water on either the list of waters with insufficient

data for assessment (Category 3b) or the list of waters that are pot entially impaired, also

known as the “planning list” (Category 3c).

7 

# In this document, the terms “IWR methodology,” “listing methodology,” or “methodology” are used to

refer to those portions of the IWR which EPA determin ed were not water quality standards but were listing

methodologies. EPA considers that methodology in re viewing Florida’s 303(d) lists . The adequacy of the

list, however, is measured only against EPA-approved state water quality standards, relevant provisions of

the CWA, and EPA’s implementing regulations.

15

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

In its review of FDEP’s 2002 Update to the state’s approved section 303(d) list,

EPA considered whether the IWR methodology overly restricted data analysis and,

therefore, led to FDEP not identifying water quality limited segments during its

assessment. EPA reviewed a random sample of waterbodies listed in Category 3b of

Florida’s Integrated Report. The random sa mple was selected to give the Region a 95%

confidence that FDEP did not overlook impair ed waterbodies when it determined that

there was insufficient data to assess waterbodies for listi ng purposes. Based on that

review, EPA determined that the listing methodology used by FDEP in its assessment

process did not result in the failure to identify any water quality limited segments. 8



# EPA believes that its 2003 review of th e adequacy of FDEP’s listing methodology

continues to be applicable to FDEP’s current listing methodology. Although the 2007

amendments to the IWR included amendm ents to FDEP’s listing methodology, those

amendments resulted in increased flexibility which allowed FDEP to consider more data

and to make decisions, where appropriate, ba sed on smaller data sets than allowed under

the original IWR. 9



# a. Minimum Sample Size

FDEP’s listing methodology generally provi des for a minimum of 20 samples to

be assessed before a water can be listed as im paired in Category 5 of the state’s section

303(d) list. Rule 62-303.420(2), FAC. In its 2003 review of FDEP’s 2002 Update to the

state’s approved section 303(d) list, EPA determined that use of the minimum sample

size could result in FDEP failing to identify impaired waters.

The 2007 amendments to the IWR, how ever, revised this provision of the

methodology. See Rule 62-303.420(7). Rule 62-303.420( 7) addresses the two most

significant concerns EPA identified associ ated with the IWR methodology’s minimum

sample size provisions. Firs t, this provision allows listi ng where data demonstrates

sufficient exceedences of a criterion, even though the full 20 samples have not yet been

collected. For example, the binomial stat istical method discussed below specifies 5

exceedances out of 20 samples to verify that a waterbody is impaired. Where a

waterbody has 7 exceedances out of 10 samples, however, Rule 62-303.420(7)(a)

provides that there is no need to collect an additional 10 samples to pass the IWR

exceedance threshold. Second, Rule 62-303.420(7 )(b) allows listing of waters based on

limited data, without satisfying the methodology ’s exceedance threshold, in appropriate

circumstances. Thus, FDEP’s listing methodol ogy doesn’t categorically exclude data sets

that don’t meet a certain sample size but rather allows flexibi lity for further assessment in

appropriate circumstances.

16

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

b. Age of Data

In its review of FDEP’s 2002 Update, EP A considered the data cutoff in FDEP’s

methodology, which provided for FDEP to use only data collected within 7.5 years of

that update. EPA’s regulations require states to “assemble and evaluate all existing and

readily available water quality-related data and information to develop [their impaired

waters lists].” 40 CFR § 130.7(b)(5). EPA found FDEP’s data cutoff reasonable, and

found it an appropriate basis to not use existing and readily available data and

information, as provided in 40 CFR § 130.7(b)(6)(iii). In Sierra Club et al. v. Leavitt

, 488 F.3d 904 (11 th 

# Cir. 2007), the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals disagreed. The

Court found that while 40 CFR § 130.7(b)(6)(iii ) may allow a state to make a case for not

using certain existing or readily available information, that regul ation does not allow a

state to avoid evaluating all such existing or readily available information. Bright line

cutoffs which result in a state not consideri ng data beyond a certain age result in the state

not fulfilling the requirement in 40 CFR § 130.7( b)(5) to consider all existing or readily

available information.

For the assessments included in the Group Three 2010 Update, FDEP developed a

process for including and consider ing data collected and analy zed outside of data periods

established in the IWR methodology. This Period of Record (POR) assessment is an

assessment of all data available for a part icular waterbody. Sin ce FDEP considers the

most recent data as most repr esentative of current conditions , if there is sufficient data

within the 7.5 years preceding assessment, FDEP will make a listing decision based on

that most recent data. However, if data collected with the pre ceding 7.5 years is not

sufficient to make a listing decision, FDEP will consider data older than that period in

addition to more recent data.

FDEP independently evaluates older data , considering the age and quality of the

data, the magnitude of exceedances, the amount of old data relative to newer data, the

source of the data, the documentation of the data, and any other information that would

inform the Department regardi ng the quality of the data colle ctors and the laboratory used

to analyze the samples. FDEP does not require additional data quality confirmation for

data produced by the FDEP Central Laborator y or contained in Modern STORET and

produced by a NELAC certified laboratory, although the othe r factors listed above will

still be considered. Beginning with the 2009 Group Two assessments, where older data

indicates a waterbody may be impaired, FD EP will also ask the public, during the

comment period on draft lists, for informati on about whether the older data remains

representative of waterbody conditions.

FDEP’s listing methodology doesn’t categorically exclude older data sets but

rather allows the state to use older data for assessment in appropriate circumstances.

EPA considers FDEP’s methodology for review of older data to be consistent with

Florida’s approved water quality standard fo r nutrients and with EPA’s regulations

17

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

2. Waterbodies Verified Impaired but no Pollutant causing

Impairment Identified

Most of the waters that EPA added to FDEP’s section 303(d) list in 2003 were

waters which FDEP had verified as impaired but where the state had not been able to

identify the pollutant causing the impairme nt. The IWR methodology provides that such

waters are not included in Category 5 of Florida’s Integrated Report. Since 2003,

however, FDEP has included a new category in its report, Category 4d. A water will be

placed in Category 4d when it has been identifi ed as impaired by FDEP but the causative

pollutant has not been identif ied. Category 4d is included as part of the section 303(d)

list submitted to EPA for review, although a TMDL will not be scheduled for Category

4d waters until FDEP identifies the pollutant causing the impairment.

3. Aquatic life use support

In reviewing FDEP’s assessment of wa terbodies with data and information

associated with numeric water quality criter ia, EPA considered a number of factors.

These factors included whether more recent data show attainment that renders earlier data

suspect (trends); the magnitude of exceedan ce; the frequency of exceedance; pollutant

levels during critical conditions ; and any other site-specific da ta and information such as

biological monitoring, whether new controls ha ve been implemented on the water, etc.

EPA’s conclusions related to several specific issues are set out below.

EPA separated its review of FDEP’s a ssessment of Aquatic Life Use Support into

three categories of impairments, those due to exceedences of nu meric criteria, toxic

pollutants, biological assessments, and nutrient impairments.

a. Exceedances of numeric water quality criteria

Some of Florida’s numeric water quality criteria are expressed in the Table of

Surface Water Criteria as not to be exceeded at any time. Standards expressed in this

manner pose several challenges in assessing atta inment, especially for naturally variable

parameters. In terms of assessing waters to create a list of water-quality limited

segments, it is reasonable to not treat ever y single sample as representing the true

ambient condition of the water segment. Flor ida's Legislature recognized that sampling

introduces variability into the testing process -- some due to natural variability and some

associated with sample collection and analysis . Thus, a single sample does not determine

whether a waterbody fails to meet water quality standards.

The Florida legislature recognized that sampling introdu ces variability into the

assessment process:

It is the intent of the Legislature that water quality standards be reasonably

established and applied to take into account the variability occu rring in nature.

The [FDEP] shall recognize the statistical variability inherent in sampling and

testing procedures that are used to express water quality standards. The [FDEP]

18

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

shall also recognize that some deviations from water quality standards occur as

the result of natural background conditions. The [FDEP] shall not consider

deviations from water quality standards to be violations when the discharger can

demonstrate that the deviations would o ccur in the absence of any human-induced

discharges or alterations to the wa ter body. Section 403.021(11), Fla. Stat.

Because Florida does not have a monitoring program that continuously measures

all points in its waterbodie s, FDEP uses statistical sa mpling to estimate a waterbody's

compliance with water quality standards. When assessing aquatic life use support, the

statistical sampling method set out in the IWR methodology is a test based on a binomial

distribution. See Rule 62-303.420(2).

The binomial statistical test has two ke y components, a confidence value and a

probability value. The confidence value repr esents the desired certainty that small

sample sizes are truly repres entative of the entire populat ion. The confidence value is

also expressed as a percentage value. In the IWR methodology, the confidence value is

90%. The probability value represents the proportion of samples that do not meet

applicable water quality criteria before the waterbody, itself, is determined to be

impaired. In FDEP’s listing methodol ogy, the probability value is 10%.

EPA understands that the purpose of the 10% probability value is to exclude data

that are likely to be unrepresentative of actual ambient water conditions. Unless the

number of samples ostensibly showing exceed ance of the relevant water quality criterion

is 10% or more, then FDEP will not list the receiving waters as having exceeded the

criterion. The 10% probability value reflect s the fact that the universe of samples

assessed by FDEP are likely to include many unreliable and thus unrepresentative

measurements, which do not accurately reflec t the condition of the ambient water.

Therefore, the State’s binomial statistical test specifies that 10% or more of such samples

exceed criterion magnitude values before FDEP will determine th e waterbody itself does

not meet water quality standards. 10



# EPA considers FDEP’s use of the binomial statistical test to be a reasonable way

to assess data for section 303(d) list purposes, based in large part on the extensive

database FDEP has developed on Florida waterbodies. In 2009, FDEP had some 45

million records in its database, making it impossible to do quality assurance on each data

point. Rather than exclude all data of unknown quality, which is the majority of the

currently available data and much of which is from third parties, FDEP developed an

assessment methodology that allows consideration of as much data as possible related to

as many waterbodies as possible.

EPA’s evaluation is informed by th e provision in FDEP’s methodology which

allows the state to consider overwhelming evidence of impairment in making assessment

decisions. See Rule 62-303.420(7). This provi sion allows FDEP to consider data of

known high quality and reliability, as well as data having other char acteristics that make

10 

# For a more detailed explanation of EPA’s 2008 decision regarding the IWR binomial statistical test, see

the 2008 IWR Determination, Appendix A.

19

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

a credible and compelling case for non-attainment, and include waters on the section

303(d) list based on such data. This provi sion helps provide needed flexibility for

considering all relevant information pursuant to the regulatory requirements of 40 C.F.R.

Part 130 for preparing an appropriate a nd complete list of impaired waters.

Some of Florida’s numeric water quality criteria are for naturally variable

parameters. Naturally variable parameters ar e those that fluctuate in a waterbody due to

non anthropogenic influences such as rainfal l/flow, depth, time of day, salinity, etc.

Naturally variable parameters include dissolved oxygen (DO) , turbidity, fecal coliform,

total coliform, conductivity, and alkalinity. As to naturally variable pollutants, even if

EPA determined the probability value were an allowable rate of criteria exceedance, that

allowable exceedance would be consistent with Florida’s underlying water quality criteria

for those naturally variable pollutants. As e xplained more fully in Appendix F, applying a

10% exceedance rate to naturally variable pollutants would be consistent with EPA’s

general recommendations for such pollutants an d would represent a reasonable choice for

attainment decisions. EPA believes that FD EP’s methodology has co rrectly interpreted

Florida’s own statute and regula tions to recognize natural and statistical variability when

making determinations of impairment. In Sierra Club et al. v. Leavitt , 488 F.3d 904 (11 th



# Cir. 2007), the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals agreed. The court found it was

reasonable for Florida to interpret the regulat ory phrase that criteria are “not to be

exceeded at any time” in concert with legislat ion providing that FDEP was to take into

account the variability occurr ing in nature when applyi ng the State’s water quality

standards. Id . at 919.

FDEP’s use of the binomial statistical test is a reasonable method for assessing

aquatic life use support for Florida’s numeri c water quality criteri a. EPA reviewed

FDEP’s Master List, which serves as Florida’ s Integrated Report and includes waters on

the state’s section 303(d) list as well as wate rs in other categories of the Integrated

Report. EPA is approving FDEP’s listing decisions based on review of data and

information regarding numeric criteria as relates to aquati c life use support based on that

statistical test.

b

. Waterbodies not Listed due to Natural Conditions

Based on direction from the legislature as set out above, Florida’s water quality

standards address natural condi tions, providing that “the Depa rtment shall not strive to

abate natural conditions.” Rule 62-302.300(15) , FAC. The standa rds define natural

background as “the condition of waters in th e absence of man-induced alterations based

on the best scientific information available to the Department.” The establishment of

natural background for an altered waterbody “may be based upon a similar unaltered

waterbody or on historical pre- alteration data.” Rule 62-302.200, FAC. Such similar,

unaltered waterbodies are also referred to as “reference waters.” Rule 62-303.200(18).

Reference waters can be representative of natural background conditions even where

there is evidence of limited human disturbance in the waterbo dy or watershed, “as long as

the anthropogenic sources do not produce a significant measurable or predicted effect on

the parameter of concern in the waterbody.” Id

.

20

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

FDEP did not list seven waterbodies wher e it determined that concentrations of

dissolved oxygen measured below the numeri c criteria are not due to anthropogenic

pollutants. Five of these waterbodies are springs, which originate from deep aquifer

source water. Two of the waterbodies ar e blackwater streams which have extensive

wetland dominated watersheds (marshes and swamps). Springs that originate from

ground water from deep aquifers, such as the Fl oridan Aquifer, have been reported to be

naturally low in dissolved oxyge n content and do not contain higher levels of dissolved

oxygen until adequate conditions for reaeration have occurred. Blackwater streams are

characterized by warm water temperatures, low stream gradient, extensive riparian

swamps, and waters darkly stained from humic substances leached from their catchments.

Because of the high content of naturally occurring organic matter and low dissolved

oxygen in waters in the associated riparian wetlands, periods of low dissolved oxygen

naturally occur in these stream segments th at serve as outflows and drain the wetlands

areas.

FDEP did not list an additional 21 wate rbodies because it determined that iron

levels above the numeric criteria were not due to anthropogenic pollutants. The natural

concentrations of elevated iron in surface wa ters is frequently associated with water

color, organic content, and pH. Color is usually associated with humic substances,

which originate from supporti ng tissues of woody plants, have a strong tendency to

increase the solubility of iron. The solubility of iron in water can also be influenced by

pH, which can control how iron is produced a nd precipitated. When pH is low, the

soluble form of iron is measured in the water column. At higher pH, more Fe(OH) 3 

# will

be produced and less soluble iron will be pres ent in the water column. Many blackwaters

or tannin-stained surface waters are part icularly prone to having elevated iron

concentrations. Many of these surface wa ters also receive significant flow from

groundwater, due to factors such as shallow water tables and/or the influence of manmade canals. Background concentrations of ir on in groundwater in th e vicinity of these

waterbodies are often higher than the surface water standard for iron.

EPA reviewed information submitted by FDEP to demonstrate that dissolved

oxygen levels and iron levels in the 28 wate rbodies described above represent natural

background conditions in those waterbodies. EPA concluded that FDEP demonstrated

that those waterbodies contain concentrations of dissolved oxygen or iron that do not

attain the water quality criterion generally applicable to Florida waterbodies due to

natural background conditions. Therefore, EP A is approving FDEP’s decision that these

waterbodies should not be included on the St ate’s section 303(d) list as reasonable.

c. Impairments Indicated by Biological Information

Florida’s water quality criterion for biological integrity is set out in Rule 62-

302.530(11), which provides that biological in tegrity is to be measured by percent

reduction of the Shannon Weaver Diversity Index. These criteria apply to Class I, II, and

III waters, and provide that “[t]he Index fo r benthic macroinvertebrates shall not be

reduced to less than 75% of background level. . . .” Florida’s water quality standards also

21

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

allow biological integrity to be assessed through BioRecons, Stream Condition Indices,

and the benthic macroinvertebrate co mponent of the Lake Condition Index. 11



# Based on its review of FDEP’s assessme nt submittals, EPA has determined that

FDEP appropriately assessed bi ological assessment data, in accordance with Florida’s

existing, EPA-approved wate r quality standards.

d. Impairments Indicated by Nutrient Information

Florida’s water quality standard for nutr ients is expressed as a narrative criteria,

providing that “[i]n no case shal l nutrient concentra tions of a body of water be altered so

as to cause an imbalance in natural popul ations of aquatic fl ora or fauna.” 62-

302.530(47)(b) FAC. Florida’s water quality sta ndards translate that narrative standard

for assessment purposes. 12 

# The water quality standard provide for assessment of

Florida’s narrative criteria for nutrients as follows:

• Stream or stream segments shall be listed for nutrient impairment if the following

biological imbalances are observed:

a) algal mats are present in sufficient quantities to pose a nuisance or hinder

reproduction of a threatened or endangered species, or

b) annual mean chlorophyll a concentrat ions are greater than 20 ug/l or if

data indicate annual mean chlorophyll a values have increased by more

than 50% over historical values fo r at least two consecutive years.

• Lakes or lake segments will be listed for nutrients if:

a) for lakes with a mean color grea ter than 40 platinum cobalt units, the

annual mean TSI for the lake exceeds 60, unless paleolimnological

information indicates the lake wa s naturally greater than 60, or

b) for lakes with a mean color less than or equal to 40 platinum cobalt units,

303.351(2); 62-303.352; 62-303.353; 62-303.450(1); and 62-303.720(2)(j). EPA approved those standards

in February 2008.

22

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

• Estuaries or estuary segments shall be in cluded on the planning list for nutrients if

their annual mean chlorophyll a for any year is greater than 11 ug/l or if data

indicate annual mean chlorophyll a values have increased by more than 50% over

historical values for at least two consecutive years.

The thresholds of nutrient impairment es tablished in the water quality standard

are “one-sided” in nature. That is, the thresholds represent upper boundary conditions

above which a water is not meeting its appli cable designated uses and is identified as

impaired, unless there is a site specific s howing otherwise. Wh ile the standard only

identifies “impairment thresholds” (upper boundary conditions for TS I and chlorophyll-a

above which a water body is considered im paired), and does not identify “attainment

thresholds,” it also provides for case-by-cas e assessment of water bodies that fall below

the impairment threshold. Rule 62-303.450(1) , FAC, provides for the development of

site-specific thresholds that better represent the levels at which nutrient impairments

occur. In addition, FDEP’s listing met hodology provides for other information, aside

from the thresholds, to be used to determine if an imbalance in flora or fauna exists. See

Rule 62-303.350(1), FAC.

Florida’s water quality standards also outline the conditions under which a water

body may be de-listed from the state’s secti on 303(d) list. Rule 62-303.720(2)(j), FAC,

provides that, for waters listed based on nutrient impairment, “the water shall be de-listed

if it does not meet the listi ng thresholds in Rule 62-303.450, FAC, for three consecutive

years.” In these instances, the basis for re moving the water from the list is that newer

data express significant uncertainty as to whether the waters are impaired.

Typically, data used to assess waters is compared to numeric criteria as opposed

to one-sided impairment thresholds. In su ch cases, a delisting decision is made where

data show that pollutant con centrations are below the numer ic criteria and the condition

that was the basis for listing no longer exis ts. Similarly, in the case of one-sided

impairment thresholds, FDEP makes a delisti ng decision where data show that pollutant

concentrations are below the impairment thre sholds and, therefore, the condition that was

the basis for the listing no longer exists. B ecause the threshold is one-sided, however, the

water is considered “unassessed” rather than “unimpaired.”

Since FDEP’s listing methodology is cons istent with Florida’s approved water

quality standard for nutrients and with EPA’s regulations, EPA is approving FDEP’s

listing decisions for nutrients based on that methodology.

4. Primary and Secondary Recreational Use Support

FDEP applies two tests for determining whether a waterbody’s recreational use is

impaired. First, FDEP looks at swimming advisories. Waterbodies which include a

swimming area for which a local health depa rtment or county government has issued

closures, advisories, or warnings based on b acteriological data are listed as impaired

23

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

when those advisories apply for a total of 21 days or more during a calendar year. 13



# However, the methodology provides that closur es, advisories, or wa rnings based on red

tides, rip tides, sewer line breaks, sharks, medi cal wastes, hurricanes, or other factors not

related to chronic discharges of pollutants are not include d in the assessment. For

waterbodies considered during this listing cycle, no beach closures, advisories, or

warnings based on these circumstances occurre d. Therefore exclusion of this type of

advisory from the analysis did not factor in to the assessment for s ection 303(d) listing

and it was unnecessary for EPA to review this provision further as it had no effect on the

list.

FDEP’s methodology considers ambient bact eria data in assessing the State’s

water quality standard for fecal coliform. Fo r Class III: Recreation use, the bacteria

criteria, set out at Rule 62- 302.530(6), are as follows:

For fecal coliform: Most probable numb er (MPN) or membrane filter (MF) per

100 ml shall not exceed a monthly average of 200, nor exceed 400 in 10% of the

samples, nor exceed 800 on any one day.

Monthly averages for fecal coliform sha ll be expressed as geometric means based

on a minimum of 10 samples taken over a 30 day period.

The methodology provides that FDEP us e the binomial statistical test in

evaluating ambient water data for assessment of the water quality criteria for

bacteriological quality, with the exception that paragraph 62-303.320(4)(a), FAC, does

not apply and samples collected on different days within any four day period will be

assessed as daily samples.

For the reasons set out in the section addressing assessment of aquatic life use

support above, EPA has determined that use of the binomial statistical test is a reasonable

method for FDEP to assess ambient water da ta for fecal coliform. EPA is approving

FDEP’s listing decisions for bacteria re lated to recreationa l use based on that

methodology.

5. Fish and Shellfish Consumption Use Support

EPA reviewed FDEP’s methodology for a ssessing fish and shellfish consumption

use support (Class II). The methodology provi des for FDEP to make listing decisions

based on bacteriological data, fish consump tion advisories, and Shellfish Evaluation and

Assessment (SEAS) Program status as it rela tes to fish and shellfish use support. See 62-

303.470.

13 

# EPA determined that provisions in the IWR further characterized the recreational designated use, set out

in Rule 62-302.40 0, FAC, by quantifying th e unacceptable loss of use from closures, advisories, and

warnings at 21 days. See 2008 IWR Determination, pp 42-43. Th e associated criteria for those designated

uses did not change.

24

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

The listing methodology provides for use of the binomial statistical test in

evaluating ambient water data for assessment of the water quality criteria for

bacteriological quality, with the exception that paragraph 62-303.320(4)(a), FAC, does

not apply and samples collected on different days within any four day period will be

assessed as daily samples. The methodol ogy further provides that waters will be

identified as impaired where a sampling loca tion has a median fecal coliform MPN value

that exceeds 14 counts per 100 ml for the verified period being assessed.

The listing methodology provides that FDEP reviews data used by DOH as the

basis for fish consumption advisories to dete rmine if the data are appropriate to use for

listing decisions. The methodology also prov ides FDEP the ability to use fish

consumption advisories and other scientific ally credible and compelling information

indicating that applicab le human health-based water quality criteria are not being met as a

basis for listing decisions. Finally, the methodology provides that SEAS status will be

used in listing decisions consistent with Florida’s underlying uses and criteria.

EPA agrees that Florida’s listing met hodology provides for FDEP to make listing

decisions based on bacteriological data and sh ellfish harvesting classification information

and in a manner consistent with the state’s currently applicable water quality standards

and EPA regulations. EPA believes that use of the binomial statistical test is a reasonable

method for FDEP to assess ambient water data for fish and shellfish consumption use

support. EPA is approving FDEP’s listing decisions for fish and shellfish use support

based on that methodology.

6. Drinking Water Use Support a nd Protection of Human Health

Assessment of drinking water use support can be broken down into the evaluation

of three types of criteria: bacteriological criteria, crit eria expressed as a maximum

concentration, and criteria expres sed as an annual average.

The FDEP listing methodology provides for listing waters on the section 303(d)

list if they exceed human health-based criter ia expressed as annual averages, or those

expressed as maximums or single-sample bact eriological criteria. FDEP is to use the

binomial statistical test in evaluating data in relation to maximum or single-sample

bacteriological water quality criteria, with the exception that paragraph 62-303.320(4)(a),

FAC, does not apply and samples collected on different days within any four day period

will be assessed as daily samples.

EPA considers that the methodology provide s for FDEP to make listing decisions

based on bacteriological data in a manner consis tent with the state’s currently applicable

water quality standards and EP A regulations. EPA believes that use of the binomial

statistical test is a reasonable method for FD EP to assess ambient water data for drinking

water use support and protection of human health . EPA is approving FDEP’s listing

decisions for drinking water and protection of human health use support based on that

methodology.

25

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

C. Section 303(d) List of Impaired Waters

FDEP submitted its Group Three 2010 sect ion 303(d) list submittal as an update

which amends the State’s previously approved section 303(d) list for Group Three basins.

Following EPA’s decision to partially approve and partially disappr ove Florida’s Group

Three 2010 submission, the current section 303(d) list fo r Group Three basins in the State

of Florida includes all waters on the 2003 EPA-approved secti on 303(d) list, as well as

approved Group Three FDEP and EPA additions to that list, mi nus EPA approved Group

Three FDEP delistings from that list. 14



# Approved 2003 section 303(d) list (Appendix A)

(+) Approved Group Three FD EP additions (Appendix B)

(+) EPA Group Three additions (Appendix C)

(-) Approved Group Three FD EP delistings (Appendix D)

1. FDEP’s Addition of Wat er Quality Limited Segments

FDEP identified additional water qua lity limited segments in the Group Three

basins, consistent with section 303(d) list and EPA’s implementing regulations. EPA is

approving the addition of those water quality limited segments to Florida’s section 303(d)

list. The newly listed waterbodies are identified in Appendix B.

2. FDEP’s Delisting of Water Quality Limited Segments

FDEP has not included certain water qual ity limited segments on the Group Three

2010 Update which had been included on the st ate’s previously a pproved section 303(d)

list. As provided in 40 CFR 130.7(b)(6)(iv), EPA requested that the State demonstrate

good cause for not including these waters.

The State did not include Myrtle Slo ugh, Shell Creek, and Prairie Creek on the

section 303(d) list because the State be lieves there are other pollution control

requirements affecting those waters that wi ll result in attainment of water quality

standards. EPA’s review of FDEP’s listing decision as to Myrtle Slough, Shell Creek,

and Prairie Creek is set out below.

Waterbody specific information on the re mainder of the waterbodies that had

been included on the state’s previously approve d section 303(d) list but were not included

on the Group Three 2010 Update, the good cause justification submitted by FDEP, and

14 

# On September 2, 2009, EPA took action on Florida’ s update to the section 303(d) list for Group One,

Two and Five basins. Complete listings of the changes to Florida’s previously approved section 303(d) list

for Group One, Two and Five basins as a result of that update are set out in EPA’s Amended Decision

Document Regarding Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s Section 303(d) List Amendments

for Basin Groups One, Two and Five.

26

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

EPA’s conclusions are included in Appendix D. For those waterbodies where EPA

determined FDEP has not demonstrated good cause, EPA is adding the identified

waterbodies to the State’ s section 303(d) list.

3. Other Pollution Control Requirements

EPA’s regulations provide that TMDLs are not required for waterbodies where

“[o]ther pollution control requirements (e .g., best management practices) required by

local, State, or Federal aut hority are [ ] stringent enough to implement any water quality

standards [WQS] applicable to such wate rs.” 40 C.F.R. § 130.7(b)(1)(iii).

Consistent with this regulation, EPA’ s 2008 Integrated Water Quality Monitoring

and Assessment Report Guidance suggests that waters may be listed in Category 4b of a

state’s Integrated Report, rath er than Category 5 (waterbodies that still require TMDLs),

where other pollution control re quirements required by local, st ate, or federal authority

are stringent enough to implement any water qual ity standard applicable to such waters.

Demonstrations that waters should be placed in Category 4b should address the following

six elements:

1. Identification of segment and statemen t of problem causing the impairment;

2. Description of pollution controls and how they will achieve water quality

standards;

3. An estimate or projection of the time when WQS will be met;

4. Schedule for implementing pollution controls;

5. Monitoring plan to track effectiv eness of pollution controls; and

6. Commitment to revise pollution controls, as necessary.

FDEP has placed Myrtle Slough (WBI D #2040; Shell Creek Watershed) and

Shell Creek (WBID #2041; Shell Creek Watershed) in Category 4b for chlorides,

dissolved solids and conduc tance, and Prairie Creek (WBID #1962; Prairie Creek

Watershed) in Category 4b for dissolved solids, rather than Category 5, based on

proposed pollution control requirements that FDEP expects to result in the attainment of

the water quality standards in those waters in the near future.

The Shell, Prairie, and Joshua Creeks Watershed Management Plan Stakeholders

Group (Stakeholders Group) was formed in 2001 to address water qua lity issues related

to elevated TDS concentrati ons in the City of Punta Go rda's in-stream, potable water

supply reservoir as a result of the 1999- 2001 drought. The group includes 18 different

state and local governments, as well as priv ate agricultural interests, associations, and

commodity groups. The group’s activities are supervised by the Southwest Florida Water

Management District (District).

In 2004, the Shell Creek and Prairie Creek Watersheds Management Plan

(SPCWMP) was developed to address wate r quality impairments due to elevated

concentrations of chloride, total dissolve d solids (TDS), and specific conductance

resulting from the use of mine ralized groundwater to irrigate agricultural lands for crop

27

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

production. The SPCWMP addresses water qua lity concerns in the Shell and Prairie

Creek watersheds, as well as the adjacent Joshua Creek watershed, with the goal of

attaining water quality standards by 2014.

The SPCWMP identifies regulatory requireme nts, management plans and projects

that will be used to address the chloride, TDS, and specific conductance impairments.

The Plan also identifies Best Management Practices (BMPs) that address potential

nutrient impairment; such BMPs are also expected to reduce TDS. The SPCWMP

includes the following management activities, which are expected to improve chloride,

specific conductance, and TDS concentrations in the Shell, Prairie and Joshua Creek

watersheds:

1) Shell, Prairie, and Joshua Cr eek (SPJC) well back plugging program.

2) District resour ce regulation, including

a. Well construction permitting and

b. Water use permitting.

3) Facilitating Agricultural Re source Management Systems (FARMS)

projects.

4) Federal Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP).

5) Best Management Practices manuals, including

a. BMPs for Peace River Valley / Ma nasota Basin Area citrus groves,

b. Water Quality BMPs for cow/calf Operations, and

c. Water Quality/Quantity BMPs for vegetable and agronomic crops.

6) Regional Water Supply Plan (RWS P) and Southern Water Use Caution

Area (SWUCA) Recovery Strategy.

7) Quality of Water Improvement Program (QWIP).

8) Land acquisition programs.

9) Mobile irrigation labs.

10) Education and outreach activities.

11) Research activities.

The Southwest Florida Water ManagementDistrict implements the well backplugging program and the well construction and water use permitting programs.

The District’s Back-Plugging Funding Assistance Initiative is designed to locate, "backplug" and improve water quality in wells that e xhibit elevated levels of chloride, TDS, and

specific conductance. 

# Data collected from irrigation wells in the region indicate that water

quality is highly dependant on well construction and deterior ates rapidly with depth.

Wells that exhibit poor wate r quality can be reduced in depth or "back-plugged" to

improve water quality. The Dist rict has authority under Florid a law to plug artesian wells

in accordance with FDEP or District specificatio ns, if the well is determined to be of such

poor water quality as to have an advers e impact upon an aquifer or other water body

which serves as a source of public drinking water. See Section 373.206 F.S.

The District administers the well cons truction permitting program, a regulatory

program established by District Rules Chapte r 40D-3, F.A.C. In order to construct a

well, a well construction permit (WCP) appli cation must be submitted and reviewed by

28

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

District staff. All WCP's issued by the Dist rict will contain the following limitations and

requirements for wells constructed in the Shell, Prairie, and Joshua Creek watersheds: 1)

maximum total depth limits, 2) required water quality sa mpling with depth during well

construction, and 3) a maximum water qua lity limit of 1,000 uS/cm. When specific

conductance reaches the maximum limit duri ng construction of a proposed well, the

depth of the well cannot be a dvanced further, regardless of whether the maximum total

depth set on the permit has been achieved. Th is water quality trigger has been set to

ensure that future groundwater sources do not contribute to the impairment of the

designated Class I water bodies.

The District also administers the wa ter use permitting program, a regulatory

program established by District Rules Chapte r 40D-2, F.A.C. An individual requesting

the use of water for irrigation or other use must demonstrate that the use of water is

reasonable and beneficial, is in the public interest, and will not interfere with any existing

legal use of water by providing reasonable assurances on both an individual and a

cumulative basis that the water use meets th e Conditions for Issuance. A key component

of these criteria is that the use of water will not cause quantity or quality changes which

adversely impact the water resources, incl uding both surface and ground waters. The

permits that have been renewed in the past several years contain all of the necessary

special conditions designed to meet the water quality issues associated with this

management plan. The District anticipates th at 89% of the water use permits in Shell,

Prairie, and Joshua Creeks, which represent approximately 98% of the permitted

quantities in these basins, will be re-evaluat ed by 2014. During the renewal process, each

applicant must address the issue of groundw ater quality, the poten tial effects on the

surface water bodies within each WBID in wh ich it is located, and the composite water

quality potentially leaving each site. Also, if a new well is proposed under the water use

permit the District will require the well to meet all of the requirements of the SPCWMP.

In addition to the permitting program s described above, BMP programs are in

place to address both specific conductance and nu trient impairments. For example, the

District and the Florida Department of Agriculture have signed a memorandum of

Agreement to provide cost-share financial a ssistance for the implementation of irrigation

conservation BMP projects under the Facil itating Agricultural Resource Management

Systems (FARMS) program. Properties with wells which may directly contribute to

pollutant loading in area surface waters are cons idered a priority to be given all possible

assistance under FARMS. FARMS projects are seen as a means to offset and/or dilute

mineralized groundwater sources through the development of alternative irrigation

sources. The Natural Resources Conservati on Service implements the Environmental

Quality Incentives Program (EQIP), a volunt ary program that provides financial and

technical assistance to farmers and ranchers w ho face threats to soil, water, air and related

natural resources on their land. The 2002 Farm Bill provides the funds, facilities and

authorities for carrying out EQUIP and wo rking with land owners to implement

conservation practices on their property. Between 2004 and 2008, over $13 million were

expended in the Shell, Prairie and Joshua Cr eek watersheds for top priority resource

management actions.

29

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

All proposed management programs in the Shell and Prairie watersheds are

currently underway w ith the goal of achieving water quality standards by 2014. The

SPCWMP includes a monitoring and review plan to evaluate the succ ess of the program.

The Stakeholder Group publishes bi-annual repo rts which summarizes the performance

monitoring done during the pr evious two years.

The most recent Bi-Annual Performance Summary shows significant

improvement in attainment of the instantane ous criteria for TDS of 1000 mg/L to be met

at all times and the criteria for chloride of 250 mg/L. The Performance Summary shows

less progress in attaining the monthly average criteria of 500 mg/L, especially in Shell

Creek. The District has identified factors th at may be affecting Shell Creek, such as

groundwater which is more mineralized and has less water quality stratification than that

in Prairie Creek. The report also notes that 2007-2008 which were periods of persistent

drought requiring more irrigation. The District has targeted the impaired WBIDS in Shell

Creek to identify ways to maximize the effect s of the well back-plugging program in that

area. In addition, Shell Creek Watershed ha s been given a higher priority for FARMS

projects and other resource management activities.

EPA has determined that the Shell Creek and Prairie Creek Watersheds

Management Plan meets the requirements of 40 C.F.R. § 130.7(b)(1 )(iii). Therefore,

Myrtle Slough, Shell Creek, and Prairie Creek need not be identifie d as a water quality

limited segment and included on the section 303(d) list. EPA will periodically reevaluate

the need to identify these waters as wate r quality limited, based on the outcome of the

Watersheds Management Plan.

4 . EPA Identified Waters

Based on its review and anal ysis of FDEP’s listing deci sions as contained in the

above, EPA has decided to add waters to Florid a’s section 303(d) list . The two additional

water quality limited segments identifie d by EPA are set out in Appendix C.

5. Priority Ranking and Targeting

Section 303(d)(1)(A) of the Clean Wate r Act requires states to “establish a

priority ranking for [impaire d waters], taking into account the severity of the pollution

and the uses to be made of such waters.” EPA’s implementing regulations require states

to include in their impaired waters list a priority ranking for al l listed water quality

limited segments as well as an identification of waters targeted for TMDL development

within the next two years. 40 C.F.R. § 130.7(b)(4).

Pursuant to the listing methodology set out in the IWR, FDEP prioritized water

quality limited segments for TMDL devel opment according to the severity of the

impairment and the designated uses of the se gment, taking into account the most serious

water quality problems, most valuable and threat ened resources, and risk to human health

and aquatic life. Waterbodies included on the section 303(d) list were prioritized as high,

medium, or low priority. See Rule 62-303.500.

30

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 12, 2010

Waters were designated hi gh priority if (a) the impa irment poses a threat to

potable water supplies or human health, or (b) the impairment is due to a pollutant that

has contributed to the decline or extirpation of a federally listed threatened or endangered

species. Also, waters listed due to fish consumption advisories for mercury were

designated high priority. FDEP notes its intent to addre ss mercury through a statewide

TMDL which is scheduled to be completed in 2012.

Waters were designated as low priority if (a) the water was an urban drainage

ditch that was listed only due to exceedences of the DO cr iteria, or (b) waters not

previously on a planning list of impaired wate rs that were identified as impaired during

subsequent phases of Florida’s rotating basi n approach, unless newl y listed segments

meet the criteria for high priority.

All other water quality limited segments were designated medium priority and

were prioritized based on the following factors:

(1) the presence of Outstanding Florida Waters;

(2) the presence of wate r segments that fail to meet more than one designated

use or exceed more than one applicable water quality criterion;

(3) the presence of wa ter segments that exceed an applicable water quality

criterion or alternative threshold with a greater than twenty-five percent

exceedance frequency with a minimum of a 90 percent confidence level;

or

(4) the administrative needs of the TMDL program, including meeting a

TMDL development schedule agreed to with EPA, basin priorities related

to following the Department’s watershed management approach, and the

number of administratively c ontinued permits in the basin.

Appendix B shows the priority and proj ected year for TMDL development for

each waterbody included on the section 303(d) li st. Waters with high priority were

generally scheduled for TMDL developmen t by FDEP during the current watershed

cycle, while medium and most low priority wa ters were scheduled for the next cycle.

All water quality limited segments identified by EPA in Appendix C have been given low

priority and are curren tly unscheduled for TMDL developm ent, unless they are subject to

the Consent Decree schedule described below.

TMDL development will also follow the schedule set out in the Consent Decree

in Florida Wildlife Federa tion, et al. v. Browner , Civil Action No. 4: 98CV356-WS

(Northern District of Fla.). All waterbodi es on the 1998 list that were not delisted are

scheduled for TMDL development according to this Consent Decree.

Upon review, EPA has determined that FDEP’s priority ranking of impaired

waters and targeting of those waters for TMDL development are consistent with the

requirements of the CWA and EPA’s implementing regulations.

IV. Final Recommendation on Florida’ s 2010 Section 303(d) List Submittal

After careful review of the final secti on 303(d) list submittal package, the Water

Management Division reco mmends that EPA Region 4:

A. approve the State of Florida’s Gr oup Three additions to the 2003 section

303(d) list, as identi fied in Appendix B;

B. approve the State of Florida’s Gr oup Three delisting requests from the

FDEP’s Rotating Basin Approach

In May 1999, the Florida Le gislature enacted the Florida Watershed Restoration Act

(FWRA) to clarify FDEP’s statutory authority for TMDL development and to establish the

processes for listing impaired waters and developing TMDLs. FDEP uses a watershed

management approach, which is a program for ma naging the state’s water resources on the basis

of hydrologic units, as the fram ework for implementing the FWRA. The approach utilizes a

process that rotates through th e state’s 52 basins over the fo llowing five-year phased cycle:

Phase 1: Initial Basin Assessment

Conduct preliminary assessments of water body health; develop a Planning List of

potentially impaired waters using the met hodology in Part II of Chapter 62-303, FAC;

identify sources of pollution; develop a c oordinated monitoring plan, focusing on waters

on the Planning List; and produ ce a Basin Status Report.

Phase 2: Strategic Monitoring

Supplement existing data to further characte rize basin conditions by: obtaining from

monitoring entities existing data that are not currently in STORET and entering it into the

Florida STORET database; monitoring waters on the 1998 303(d) list for which

insufficient data are available to analyze th e waters using the methods in Chapter 62-303,

FAC; monitoring waters on the Planning List to verify pot ential impairment; conducting

intensive survey monitoring to obtain data needed for TMDL de velopment; producing a

Basin Assessment Report that assesses al l waters using the methodology in EPA's 2002

Integrated Water Quality Monitoring and Assessment Report Guidance; preparing a

revised Planning List of pot entially impaired waters; and adopting, using a public

participation process, a Verified List of impaired waters that is submitted to EPA as a

basin-specific 303(d) li st that will update th e state’s 303(d) list.

Phase 3: Data Analysis and TMDL Development

Develop TMDLs for waters on the basin-specifi c Verified List of impaired waters in

accordance with the schedule agreed to by EPA and FDEP; conduct a more detailed

assessment of major pollutant sources, incl uding the quantificati on of nonpoint source

loadings; and, begin the devel opment of the Basin Management Action Plan that will

specify load reduction allocations and activit ies that will be undertaken to reduce

loadings in order to meet the TMDL.

Phase 4: Basin Management Action Plan Development

Work with local stakeholders to develop a Basin Management Action Plan that specifies

how established goals will be achieved by recommending management activities,

establishing who is responsible for im plementation, establishing a schedule for

implementation, and noting how effectiveness of the plan will be assessed. While the

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 2010

2 

# plan will focus on implementation of TMDLs developed in the basin, it may also address

more general watershed goals.

Phase 5: Basin Management Action Plan Implementation

Begin implementation of the Basin Manage ment Action Plan and associated water

resource protection and re storation efforts, includi ng implementation of Best

Management Practices, habitat protection a nd restoration activ ities, environmental

infrastructure improvements, and issuance of NPDES permits.

At the conclusion of this cycle, the process begins anew so that all basins in the state are assessed

every five years.

FDEP organized the state’s 52 basins into 30 groups for assessment purposes. The

groups were then organized as follows for the basin rotation cycle:

Assessing Ambient Data for Naturally Variable Parameters Against

Numeric Water Quality Criteria

Water quality criteria for aquatic life are typically established for two

intended levels of protection. The first level provides for survival over short

periods of time and the second allows fo r organisms to live, grow, and reproduce

in a given area over a longer period of time. Florida’s water quality criteria

provide the latter level of protection for their aquatic life uses.

EPA recognizes that all numeric water quality criteria have three elements:

magnitude (e.g., how much), duration (e.g., how long at the specified magnitude),

and frequency of exceedance (e.g., how often for the specified duration period),

regardless of whether they are explicitly described in state water quality

standards. A characterization of these th ree elements is essential to perform

tasks such as the development of wasteload allocation for deriving permit limits.

Often this is accomplished by identifying a “design flow” (e.g., the 7Q10 - lowest

seven day average flow with a recurrence interval of ten y ears) to match an

expression of criterion m agnitude (e.g., a concentra tion) that accounts for

allowable duration and frequency. Fl orida’s water quality standards include

numeric water quality criteria that are typically expresse d as concentration values

“not to be exceeded”. As stated by Florida, this expression relates to their

intended use for wasteload allocation purpose s. Indeed, it is Florida’s typical

practice to establish permit limits that si mply reflect the criterion magnitude (with

or without an allowable mixing zone, where exceeding criteria fo r short periods of

time and space is consistent with Flori da water quality standards under certain

circumstances).

In addition to serving as the basis for water quality-based pollutant source

controls, water quality standards also func tion as the basis for assessing ambient

water quality to determine if waters are impaired. Because the technical

capability and resources for continuous mo nitoring are extremely rare, assessors

typically rely on analytical chemistry m easures of “grab sa mples” of surface

waters taken at infrequent intervals of time over a period of years to serve as the

data base for these determinations. These data do not allow a direct

characterization of duration and frequency as typically expressed in water quality

standards for purposes of wasteload allo cation. These assessment data can be

grouped and presented as data distri butions that can subsequently be

statistically compared to criteria magnit ude values. The closest approximation of

duration and frequency from th is type of analysis is the percent of samples above

a criterion magnitude. This could be furt her characterized as the “percent of

time” a criterion magnitude is exceeded, provided the data are considered

representative of ambient condition s over the assessment period.

1

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 2010

Many State water quality standards, in cluding Florida’s, do not explicitly

specify an allowable percent of ambient measurement samp les above numeric

criteria magnitude values for determining impairment. The Flor ida statute that

authorizes state development of water quality standards, however, directs Florida

to establish and apply criteria in water quality standards recogni zing the inherent

natural and statistical variability (F.S. 403.021(11)). EPA believes that Florida

has correctly interpreted its own statut e to recognize natural and statistical

variability when making dete rminations of impairment.

Statistical variability relates to an accounting for sampling and analytical

error and other factors that confer uncer tainty in the accuracy, precision, and

representativeness of sample data to repres ent “true” condition s. Generally, the

smaller the sample size, the greater the uncertainty that “true” conditions are

accurately represented. Statistical va riability can be mathem atically expressed

as a confidence level, and the desired confidence level is generally a risk

management decision left to the discretion of the state in interpreting its available

data for purposes of determining impairmen t. However, overwhelming evidence

of gross impairment should not be ma sked by unreasonable expectations for

statistical certainty.

Natural variability relates to the degr ee that conditions in nature vary as a

function of time and space based on physica l, chemical, biological, hydrological,

and geomorphological factors. Pollutants and pollut ant parameters can be

placed into three distinct groups for consider ing the effects of natural variability.

Some pollutants, such as chlorine and pesticides, are introduced solely as a

function of anthropogenic acti vity and, although natural factors can mitigate or

augment their effects, their presence cannot be attributed to natural conditions.

The second group of pollutants usually occu r naturally in the environment at low

levels, such as copper and cadmium, but protective water quality criteria for

these pollutants lie well above the typical range of solely natural occurrence. For

this group, the natural contri bution is likely negligible at measured levels above or

near the water quality criteri on. Natural variability is generally not a factor for

consideration in evaluating ambient m easurement samples that exceed water

quality criterion magnitude val ues for these first two grou ps of pollutants. In

contrast, the third group of pollutants or pollutant parameter s have protective

water quality criteria that lie within or near the range of naturally occurring

conditions. This “naturally variab le” group include pollutants or pollutant

parameters such as dissolved oxygen, turbidity, bacteria, conductivity, and

alkalinity. Natural variability is an appr opriate and reasonable factor to consider

in evaluating ambient data for this group of pollutants or po llutant parameters.

Dissolved oxygen (DO) is perhaps the best example of a naturally variable

pollutant parameter. DO re fers to the volume of ox ygen that is contained in

water, and is measured and expressed as a concentration (typically in mg/L).

Oxygen arrives in surface water as a by-product of photosynthesis by aquatic

plants and from transfer from t he overlying air. DO solubi lity and, as a result, the

2

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 2010

expected ambient measured levels, are af fected by temperature (colder water

holds more oxygen), salinity (fresher water holds more oxygen), and altitude

(lower pressure reduces solubility). DO levels are also affected by flow and

stream channel or lake morphology (more turbulent or well-mi xed water transfers

more oxygen from the air at the water surface), degree of biological activity (plant

and animal respiration deplete oxygen, es pecially at night), and the amount of

naturally occurring organic matter (aerobi c decomposition depletes oxygen). As

a result, DO can change and vary in a single water body according to time of

day, season, weather, temperature, dept h and location of sampling, and flow.

The variability across different waters is augmented by many of the factors

described above. DO can range from 0-18 mg/L in natural water systems, with

long-term levels set generally within 5- 6 mg/L to support a diverse aquatic

community in most warmwater systems, as reflected by Florida’s water quality

standards. Specific information concerni ng dissolved oxygen and other naturally

variable pollutants can be found in textbooks such as Water Quality: Prevention,

Identification and Management of Diffuse Pollution by Novotny and Olem

(published by Van No strand Reinhold, 1994), Limnology ine(second edition) by

Wetzel (published by Saunders College Publishing, 1983), and Water Quality:

Characteristics, Modeling, and Modification by Tchobanoglous and Schroeder

(published by Addison-Wesley Pub lishing Company, 1985). Information

summaries and general information can be found at University web sites,

including excellent ones on DO from North Carolina State University

( http://h2osparc.wq.ncsu.edu/info/do.html and

http://www.ncsu.edu/sciencejunction/depo t/experiments/water/lessons/do/ )

Although States have di scretion in selecting a target for determining

impairment of water quality standards, t he State would need to justify why the

target for an allowable number of ambient measurem ent samples to exceed a

criterion magnitude for a naturally variable pollutant parameter is appropriate and

reasonable and results in an acceptable 303(d) listing decision. Florida’s choice

of 10% is consistent with EPA’s g eneral recommendations for pollutant

parameters of this type, and represents a reasonable choice for this application

with respect to naturally variable pollut ants and pollutant par ameters, such as

DO. Waters that are not listed as impaired, or are removed from the list of

impaired waters, on this basis can r easonably be expected to achieve the

intended level of protecti on expressed in Florida’s water quality standards.

FDEP Data Exclusion Screens

Removal of results reported in Florida ST ORET that did not include units, or included

units that were inappropriate for the particular analyte : These were excluded as the

results could not accurately be quantified, or relied upon for assessment purposes under

the IWR.

Results reported as negative values : It was concluded that any results reporting a

negative value for the substance analyzed repr esent reporting errors: Credible data could

not have any values less than the detection limit (in all cases a positive value) reported.

Therefore, results reported as negative va lues could not be re lied upon for assessment

purposes under the IWR.

Results reported as any of “888" "8888" "88888" "888888" "8888888" and "999" "9999"

"99999" "999999" "9999999 ": Upon investigation, all data reported using these values

were found to be provided by a particular Wa ter Management Distri ct. The District

intentionally coded the values in this manner to flag the fact that they should not be used,

as the values reported from the lab were su spect. The data coded in this manner was

generally older.

Removal of J-qualified Results : J-qualified results from this same Water Management

District were excluded from the assessments af ter the District brought to the attention of

FDEP that their use of the J-qualifier was not consistent with FDEP ’s use of the FDEP Jqualifier.

Removal of extremely old USGS data (beginning of the previous century ): This data did

not have complete date information available. Accurate date information is required to

be able to assess results unde r the IWR. USGS data usi ng USGS parameter codes of

32230 or 32231 were also excluded from assessments performed under the IWR, based

on information in a memo that was sent from USGS.

Removal of results for iron which were conf irmed to be entered into dbHydro using the

wrong legacy STORET parameter codes : These results were found to be reported by a

particular Water Management District. Th ey were excluded from the assessment under

the IWR.

Removal of results reported using “K”, "U", "W", and "T" qualifier codes (all of which

suggest that the result was below method dete ction limits) when the reported value of the

mdl was greater than the criter ion, or the mdl was not provided : In order to be able to

compare a non-detect result to a criterion value, it is neces sary to know that it was

possible to measure as low as the numeric value of the criterion.

1

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 2010

Removal of certain results reported using an “l” qualifier code (meaning that the result

value was between the method detection lim it and the practical quantification limit) :

These results were excluded from assessments performed under the IWR, where the mdl

was not provided, or where the mdls and pqls we re inconsistent with the rest of the data

record,.

Removal of certaion results reported fo r metals using an “I” qualifier code : Where the

criteria is expressed as a func tion of hardness, and the numeric value of the metal criteria

corresponding to the reported hardness value was between the mdl and the pql, these data

were excluded from the assessm ents performed under the IWR.

Removal of results reported using an “L” qualif ier code (meaning that the actual value is

known to be greater than th e reported value) where the reported value for the upper

quantification limit was less than the criterion : The reasoning for excluding these data

follows a logic somewhat simila r to the reasoning to the case s discussed above for results

reported as below the method detection limits.

Removal of results reported with a “Z” qualif ier code (which indicates that the results

were too numerous to count ): These results were excluded because there was no

consistency among data providers in how data using this qualifier c ode were reported:

Some data providers entered numeric estima tes of bacteria counts, while other data

providers entered the dilution factor. As a result, meaningful interpretation of data

reported using this qualifier was not uniformly possible.

Removal of results reported with an “F” qualifier code (which indicates female species ):

Since the IWR does not assess any analytes for which this qualifier code would be

appropriate, the intended meaning of the use of this qualifier code is unknown. The

reported result is therefore rendered unint erpretable (although there are very few

instances of the use of this qua lifier code in the IWR dataset, and it is possible that some

agencies use this to indicate a field measurement).

Results reported with an “O ” qualifier code (which indi cates that the sample was

collected but that the analys is was lost or not performed ): Exclusion of results reported

using this qualifier c ode is self-explanatory.

Removal of results reported with an “N” qua lifier code (which indicates presumption of

evidence of the presence of the analyte ). Comparing concentra tions of analytes to

critieria from the Florida Standards requires a nu meric result value: Presence or absence,

for the purposes of assessments performed under the IWR, is not sufficient information

upon which to base an impairment decision.

Removal of results reported w ith a "V" or "Y" qualifier code (which indicate the presence

of analyte in both the environm ental sample and the blank, or a laboratory analysis that

was from an unpreserved or improperly preserved sample ): Such data may not be

accurate. Use of these codes indicates that the reported result is not sufficiently reliable

to be used in IWR assessments.

2

# Florida §303(d) List Decision Document May 2010

Removal of certain results reported with a “Q ” qualifier code (which indicates that the

holding time was exceeded ): These data were reviewed to determine if the holding time

that was exceeded. When appropriate, such data were excluded from the assessments.

These reviews were performed manually, not as part of the automated processing of the

IWR data.

Removal of results reported for mercury not collected and an alyzed using Clean

techniques : The use of clean techniques removes the chance for contamination of

mercury samples from the atmosphere, which significantly biases the results upward, and

ultimately does not represent in stream water quality. It is therefore reasonable for the

State not to rely upon data entr ies based on non-clean techniques as evidence for instream

water quality assessment.

Removal of result values based on recommendations from FDEP’s Environmental

Assessment Section as a result of lab aud its performed on behalf of the TMDL program :

The data excluded based on lab audits were generally analyte-speci fic and referred to a

specific time frame. While the data issues encountered are va riable, lack of acceptable,

or verifiable, records is a common issue.

Removal of certain dissolved oxygen meas urements collected for Group 2, Cycle 2

Assessments : Results reported for dissolved oxyge n which were collected using a field

kit (as opposed to a meter) were excl uded from assessment under the IWR.
