The District Governing Board sets these limits to prevent significant harm to the resources. U.S. Highway 301 North. The purpose of the meeting is to receive public input on a revised priority schedule for establishing minimum flows and levels. In accordance with direction from the state Legislature, the District ranked water bodies needing these flows and levels in 1996.
Legislation requires the District to review and, if necessary, revise the schedule each year.
This meeting will afford an important opportunity for local governments, citizens and others to be part of the scheduling of minimum flows and levels for rivers, streams and other flowing waters, lakes and aquifers. The revised schedule will be considered for adoption at the Governing Board's regularly scheduled meeting in September at the District's Brooksville headquarters. Written comments are also welcome and can be submitted via mail or E-mail to B. Terry Johnson, planning manager in the District's Planning Department, no later than Sept. 18.
