Words Struck-Trough are deleted; Words Underlined are added Page 1 of 8 18-7245—Collier County Comprehensive Watershed Improvement Plan Schedule A 1.5 Countywide Evaluation of FDEP Comprehensive Verified List Within the FDEP's latest Comprehensive Verified Impaired List (December 18, 2017), there are numerous WBID-impairment combinations for water bodies, including impairments for dissolved oxygen, nutrients in terms of both Trophic State Index (TSI), chlorophyll-a, and fecal coliform bacteria. Prior to commencing with further steps such as the development of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) and the development of Basin Management Action Plans (BMAPs) Collier County wishes to review those WBID-impairment combinations that involve water bodies within the County. In addition, there are a number of TMDLs for waterbodies in Collier County, some of which are based on water quality criteria that are no longer used by FDEP to determine impairment. In addition to the concerns with problematic impairment determinations,the load reductions called for in TMDLs can directly impact the COUNTY's budget for capital improvement projects, as TMDLs lead, by rule, to BMAPs, which are meant to be"self-implementing"through the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting process, and the need for the COUNTY to update its NPDES permit with FDEP. The Scope of Work for this task involves the following subtasks to be completed by subconsultant Environmental Science Associates(ESA): 1)review of datasets used by FDEP to create its most recent (December 18, 2017) comprehensive verified impairment list, to include an assessment of the appropriateness of locations of sampling locations for ambient water quality characterization, 2) a comparison of recent water quality data against current regulatory criteria for dissolved oxygen, pathogens (i.e., fecal coliform vs. enterococci bacteria) and nutrients (i.e., TSI vs. Numeric Nutrient Concentration (NNC) criteria for each impaired waterbody, with a particular focus on the potential for discrepancies between impairments at WBID vs. Estuarine Nutrient Region scales, 3) attendance at and presentations to a meeting within Collier County to present draft findings for peer review, 4) preparation of a draft final Technical Memorandum summarizing findings, 5) attendance and presentation of findings at a meeting in Tallahassee with FDEP staff at Manager and/or Director levels for those departments with relevant responsibilities, and 6) after receiving comments from COUNTY staff, production of a final Technical Memorandum. Review of Datasets used to create FDEP's Verified Impaired List — The purpose of this subtask is to review the station locations, attribution of stations to appropriate WBIDs, and the appropriateness of sample sites for characterization of ambient water quality for waterbodies in Collier County that have been determined by FDEP to be impaired for nutrients in their latest comprehensive verified impaired list (December 18, 2017). Data sets examined will include the IWR data set used by FDEP, as well as additional data sets — as available — from the COUNTY and/or other water quality monitoring efforts. Potential influencing factors examined will include station locations (i.e., along shoreline vs. in open water) and general climatic factors (i.e., influences of droughts, hurricanes, El Nino events, or other hydrologic factors). Comparison of Impairment Determinations Using Current Regulatory Criteria—Using methodology laid out in the State of Florida's Surface Water Quality Standards (FAC 62-302) and the Impaired Waters Rule (62-303), water quality impairment determinations (for FDEP-determined "impaired"water bodies) will be compared using both the Trophic State Index (TSI) and the newly adopted Numeric Nutrient Page 2 of 8 Concentration criteria (NNC). Using the guidance provided in the State of Florida's NNC derivation process, those lakes with sufficient water quality for determining NNC guidance for TN and TP targets will be compared as to their impairment status using TSI. Presentation to Public / Peer Review At the direction of staff from the COUNTY, participation at a meeting within Collier County to present data sources, methodology, findings and interpretation of findings to a meeting consisting of stakeholders chosen by the COUNTY. Comments will be used to help interpret data within the context of a Draft Technical Memorandum. Draft Technical Memorandum — Based on comments received from COUNTY staff and other stakeholders at the Public Meeting, develop a Draft Technical Memorandum including background, data sources, analytical methods employed, maps, figures and tables necessary to convey general and specific findings, and an interpretation of results as to implications to the COUNTY, related to existing and potential future TMDL obligations. Attendance and Presentation to FDEP in Tallahassee—In coordination with the COUNTY, presentation of findings related to the above-described review of impairment determinations and TMDL assessments to senior-level FDEP staff. Efforts will be made to include participation by FDEP staff in management positions, as well as technical staff, so that any problematic impairment determinations or concerns about approved TMDLs would be discussed at a staff level that would allow for FDEP to direct staff to appropriate respond to any legitimate concerns raised by the COUNTY. Although FDEP's actions cannot be dictated by the COUNTY, past experience has shown that FDEP staff can and will respond to scientifically valid concerns, up to and including revising impairment determinations and/or TMDLs if that is the logical and appropriate course of action for FDEP. Final Technical Memorandum — Based on comments received from COUNTY staff on the Draft Technical Memorandum, production of a Final Technical Memorandum that incorporates suggested edits, additions and/or revisions of the original draft document. 1.5.1 Coordination with FDEP: Numeric Nutrient Criteria for Rookery Bay Under this Task, Consultant will participate in meetings with the COUNTY, stakeholders, and the FDEP, and conduct a focused technical review of the data and analysis prepared under Task 2.3.1, specifically for WBIDs of concern to the CWIP/RESTORE project: • 3278U — Rookery Bay coastal —impaired (chlorophyll / N, P) — Receiving waters for the rehydration project flows • 32780—Marco Island, (unimpaired)—Directly adjacent WBID in flow path direction (East Marco Bay) • 3259M Thousand Island - impaired (fecal coliform only) —WBID adjacent 3278U; may receive some water from 3278U The Consultant will review the data (sample locations, identifiers, data, etc.) and analyses (equations, assumptions, etc.) used to determine impairment status of the above water bodies to prepare for negotiations with FDEP regarding the impairment status of Rookery Bay. Although not anticipated at this time, preparation of alternative numeric nutrient criteria and navigating the approvals process through FDEP may be conducted upon separate written authorization from the COUNTY.
