Agenda 12/15/2009 Item #10F Agenda Item No. 10F December 15, 2009 Page 1 of 133 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve actions required to complete the development of a comprehensive management plan for the Clam Bay Estuary OBJECTIVE: To obtain approval of activities that are required to complete the development of a comprehensive, long term management plan for the Clam Bay estuary including ratification of the Clam Bay Advisory Committee update report dated September 25,2009; extension of the term of the Clam Bay Advisory Committee to June 30, 2010; approval of the proposed FY 2010 budget of $234,917; approval of the Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis Report recommendations and approval of a peer review of this report conducted by an independent expert jointly selected by Coastal Zone Management and the Pelican Bay Services Division. . CONSIDERATIONS: The Clam Bay Advisory Committee, (County Ordinance 2008-48), is charged with developing a Masfer Plan for the health, management and long term viability of the Clam Bay Esfuary. The Committee is scheduled fo sunset by December 31,2009 unless extended by the BCC. The attached status report and budget funding request dated 9/25/2009 was sent to the BCC as required to meet the October 20, 2009 deadline as outlined in County Ordinance 2008-48. This report highlights the Committee's major activity on its mission items and . makes recommendations for BCC consideration. In order to accomplish CBAC's mission as directed and approved by the BCC on 5/26/09, water quality standards, monitoring programs, mixing, flushing, and circulation data, along with natural resources characterizations, must still be performed. The CBAC is requesting that this advisory committee be exfended until the Management Plan for Clam Pass/Clam Bay has been developed, vetted within the community and approved by the BCC. This will require a first extension of the CBAC by the BCC through June 30, 2010. This time extension is due to delays experienced in forming the committee and effort consumed in resolving the new 1 O-year permit and navigational markers. Three members of the current nine-member Clam Bay Advisory Committee have indicated their intent to resign as of December 2009. Replacement members as outlined in County Ordinance 2008-48 will need to be solicited and appointed by the BCC. On 6/23/09, the BCC authorized the expenditure of $120,000 to evaluate all existing data and move forward with the data collection phase of the Water Quality Study. The City of Naples provided $23,644 to perform the water quality program and together this funding was sufficient to complete the data review and the data collection phase of this project. These items were: · Development of a Water quality program - $23,644: This included the review of all the existing water quality data and all previous modeling studies along with proposing water quality standards in Clam Bay in consultation with FDEP and recommendations for a sampling program. Agenda Item No. 10F December 15, 2009 Page 2 of 133 · Sediment and Biological Characterization - $20,804: This included sediment sampling along with identification and characterization of the sediment in Clam Bay. · Physical Data Collection - $95,994: This included subsurface topography along with flow, tidal and current information at various locations within Clam Pass and Bay. Results of these activities are complete and detailed in the Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis Report. The recommendations of this report have been approved by the Clam Bay Advisory Committee as follows: · Move forward with a water monitoring program as outlined in the report. · Move forward with additional sediment toxicology and aging data collection and analysis for Clam Bay. . Conduct the water circulation/flushing modeling program. Staff is asking that the BCC approve the recommendations as outlined above. It is also recommend that independent peer review, of the Clam Bay Water Circulation/Flushing Modeling Program and the Clam Bay System Data Collection Analysis Report recently completed by PBS&J be performed by a recognized expert. This expert, jointly selected by Pelican Bay Services Division and Coastal Zone Management, will be from an academic/university background and not directly involved with any consulting firm. The review of the Clam Bay Data Collection and Analysis Report is proposed to be conducted early in the development of the flushing/circulation model. It is also recommended that the cost of this effort and any future phased peer review be split between the Pelican Bay Services Division and Coastal Zone Management. Funding required to complete the Master Plan for Clam Bay are: Fund 111 . Unincorporated Collier County Court Recording and Documentation Costs Water Quality Monitoring in Clam Bay System Chemicals and YSI probes lab Fees (9 locations for 12 months) Consulting and Analysis Support Public Outreach and Communication Peer Review Sediment toxicology Installation of Beach and Inlet Safety signs and Permitting Permitting and Installation of Navigational Markers in Clam Bay Estuary Wildlife and Habitat Preliminary Analysis Fund 111 Subtotal System ModelinQ (Fund 195.

The Coastal Advisory Committee recommended approval (8-0) of this item at their October 8, 2009 meeting. The Clam Bay Advisory Committee also recommended approval of the recommendations in the Clam Bay System Data and Analysis Report conducted by PBS&J as outlined above. FISCAL IMPACT: The total FY 2010 budget requirements for this program are estimated at $234,917. A combination of project eligible Category "A" tourist tax dollars and Unincorporated Area MSTD Fund (111) reserve dollars are proposed as the funding source. A budget amendment in the amount of $102,400 will be necessary moving budget from Fund (111) reserves to the Coastal Zone Management appropriation unit within Fund (111). A draw of this amount will reduce Fund (111) confingency reserves to $1,302,000. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This item funds studies that will be used in the development of a comprehensive master plan for the Clam Bay Estuary and ultimately be approved by the Clam Bay Advisory Committee, the Coastal Advisory Committee and the Board of County Commissioners. This master plan will conform to the Growth Management Plan and the Land Development Codes and Ordinances of Collier County. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed and approved by the County Attorney's Office. This item is legally sufficient for Board action. - CMG RECOMMENDATION: To approve the following actions required to complete the development of a comprehensive, long term management plan for the Clam Bay estuary: 1. Ratify the previously provided Clam Bay Advisory Committee update report dated September 25,2009. 2. Extend the term of the Clam Bay Advisory Committee to June 30, 2010. 3. Approve the proposed FY 2010 budget of $234,917 and all necessary budget amendments. 4.

The following is a summary of the Mission, Functions and Duties of this Advisory Committee and the progress accomplished to date towards the development of a Management Pian. This summary also addresses management plan completion dates, funding requirements and recommendations on the long term management of this valuable County asset. Mission: The Clam Bay Advisory Committee developed the following Mission Statement that was approved by the Clam Bay Advisory Committee, the Coastal Advisory Committee and the Board of County Commissioners. The approved mission is as follows: 1. The Committee's mission is to advise, assist and make joint recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners ("BCC") and the Coastal Advisory Committee ("CAC") with all major issues affecting the management, use. direction, health and long term viability of the Clam Bay Estuary in accordance with the protection afforded Clam Pass and Clam Bay's NRPA and conservation designations as delineated in the Future Land Use Element of the Collier County Growth Plan and Coastal Zone Management Plan. In doing so, the Committee will formulate recommendations for review and recommend possible funding sources that may be required by such recommendations. 2. The Committee's powers and functions are as an advisory group with the responsibility of making recommendations pertinent to the Estuary. 3. The Committee has defined its specific duties and scope of work relative to its defined mission as the review and recommendations associated with, but not limited to, the major issues listed below. The Committee plans on integrating their recommendations on these specific issues into a comprehensive long term management plan as well as suggested guidelines for the day-to-day operation of the Estuary. . Permit issues, requirements and compliance . Water quality and sampling programs . Tidal flushing and mixing . Mangrove maintenance . Maintenance of hand dug channels . Nutrient loadings and runoff control . Maintenance of Clam Pass . Sand bypassing at Clam Pass . Navigational use and marking . Estuarine wildlife and habitat optimization Clam Bay Advisory Committee Update and Recommendations - 9/25/2009 Page 1 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 6 of 133 · Public education and outreach . Funding 4. The Committee is scheduled to sunset by December 31, 2009 unless extended by the BCe. The Committee is to submit a compiete status report on their mission to the BCC by October 20, 2009 and make recommendations on its possible continuance. This report highlights the Committees major actions on Its numerous mission items and makes the required recommendations for BCC consideration. Permits Task: Review navigationai issues associated with Clam Pass for the specific purpose of compliance with old permit conditions and the closing out of such permits. This subcommittee will also complete the required application for a new dredging permit for Clam Pass that enables minimal dredging for tidal flushing. Status: 1. Regulatory Agencies in official correspondence has directed Collier County to come into compliance with USACE permit conditions requiring Clam Pass/Bay to be marked for navigation per USCG standards. A navigational marker plan has been prepared and approved by the Clam Bay Advisory Committee, the Coastal Advisory Committee and the Board of County Commissioners. . Florida Department of Environmental Protection has approved our permit request by "Consent Rule" for the installation of these navigational markers citing that since these markers are on sovereign submerged land, any restrictive covenants between Collier County and the Pelican Bay Foundation do not apply. The Peiican Bay Foundation and several individuals have challenged this ruling and petitioned for a Formal Administrative Hearing. Additionally, staff has applied for and received the USCG permit to install these markers. It is anticipated that resolution of this item will not be resolved until the Administrative law Judge rules on this petition. 2. For tidal flushing maintenance dredging of Clam Pass. a new 10-year permit application on exactly the same technical basis as the previously granted permit has been submitted to FDEP and the USACE. Collier County is currently answering FDEP's Request for Additional Information in an attempt to perfect the permit application. It is anticipated that the permit process will take an additional 9-12 months. FDEP refused a second one-year permit extension and no tidal flushing maintenance dredging or emergency storm dredging work can occur without this permit in place. To date, no individual or organization has filed a request for an Administrative Hearing on this permit application. FDEP is strongly considering requiring Collier County to model the system to obtain the exact cross section of the pass cut. If this is required, it could lengthen the permitting Clam Bay Advisory Committee Update and Recommendations - 9/25/2009 Page 2 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 7 of 133 time frame considerably due to, among other issues, the controversy associated with the ebb shoal and the width of the cut at Clam Pass. 3. Safety signage in Clam Pass is a critical issue. Clam Pass is a County pass where swimmer and boater directly interface. The County and The Pelican Bay Foundation have agreed to work together to protect all the residents of Collier County by installing two Informational safety markers/signs on the beach and two informational markers within and outside the pass to warn boaters and swimmers of potential safety issues. Proposed locations and size have been agreed upon and wording is being worked with FWC in Tallahassee. FWC will be required to permit the signage. These signs should be installed by 11/1/2009. Future Action: All committee required action has been completed with the exception of monitoring the progress to assure proper implementation. Water Qualitv. MixinE! and Runoff/OrainaE!e Task: In order to accomplish the mission of the Clam Bay Advisory Committee; water quality standards, monitoring programs, mixing, flushing, tidal modeling and circulation data, along with natural resources characterizations, must be performed as outlined below: 1. Water Quality and Sampling activities to include the review of prior water quality data, technical reports, quality assurance and control procedures, laboratory certifications, state reporting requirements and investigate water quality trends and impact on estuarine wildlife and vegetation. Make recommendations on required water sampling and testing to assure the long term viability of the Estuary. Make recommendations on the sampling protocol to be consistent with other water quality programs. 2. Tidal Flushing and Mixing study to review all available technical data and make recommendations on studies that could be undertaken to improve the overall health of the Estuary by the identification and optimization of tidal flushing and mixing within the entire estuary. Overall optimization of the entire system is required to enhance estuarine wildlife. Habitat and restoration recommendations, if appropriate, are also to be considered. 3. Nutrient loading and Runoff/Drainage Control identification is the third major portion of this analysis. This analysis will review previous reports on the sources and impact of run off on the Estuary's water quality, mangroves and estuarine wildlife and habitat. This will include a complete review of nutrient loadings, an identification of the major sources of runoff/drainage and recommended actions to reduce runoff/drainage that may have a negative impact on the Estuary. Clam Bay Advisory Committee Update and Recommendations - 9/25/2009 Page 3 Agenda Item No. 10F December 15, 2009 Page 8 of 133 Status: Staff and the CBAC began working with PBS&J over a nine months period to develop the methodology and scope for water quality studies within Clam Bay. PBS&J was selected because they were currently under contract with the County; they possessed extensive knowledge and expert staff credentials working in similar estuaries in SW Florida. The Clam Bay Advisory Committee felt that they were qualified to effectively collect and analyze the scientific data and make recommendations based on the best science available. In addition, a Best Value Offer was solicited from all firms under the Coastal Zone Management Consulting Contract. PBS&J and Johnson Engineering responded to the solicitation and PBS&J was selected by an independent selection committee utilizing standard criteria. At the June 23, 2009 BCC meeting, the Board of County Commission authorized $120,000 to evaluate all existing data and move forward with the data collection phase of the Water Quality Study program that was recommended by the CBAC. In addition, the City of Naples authorized $23,644 to the 'water quality program. With the City of Naples money and funds from the Commission, enough funding was available to complete the data review and the data collection phase of this project. This is the first three scope/work items of the PBS&J proposal and includes: 1. Development of a Water quality program - $23,644: This includes a review of all the existing water quality data and all previous modeling studies along with proposing water quality standards in Clam Bay in consultation with FDEP and recommendations for a sampling program. 2. Sediment and Biological Characterization - $20,804: This included sediment sampling along with identification and characterization of the sediment in Clam Bay. 3. Physical Data Collection - $95,994: This includes subsurface topography along with flow, tidal and current information at various locations within Clam pass and bay. These work items should be completed and a draft report available by mid October 2009. Future Action: The CBAC will review the final phase 1 report and submit appropriate recommendations along with costs for the next phase to the CAC and the BCC in December, 2009. If the Committee finds that any of the existing data or models can be used more extensively than previously thought, they will be incorporated into the next phase. The second phase of this program, after BCC authorization to proceed, will be as follows: . Development of a Circulation model (4a) - $86,017 . Sediment bypassing and Transport modeling (4B) - $38.550 . Peer Review - $5,000 The complete report along with recommendations from the water quality study should be completed in 2010. Clam Bay Advisory Committee Update and Recommendations - 9/25/2009 Page 4 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 9 of 133 ManErove Maintenance and Estuarv Habitat Task: Review and submit recommendations for ongoing mangrove maintenance and maintenance of the hand dug channels. Status: The Committee is working with the Pelican Bay Services Division to review their successful mangrove maintenance program. To accomplish this, prior technical reports on the condition ofthe mangroves, trend analysis and previously recommended actions will be were reviewed to assure long term health of the mangrove community. The Committee has accepted the past practices as a basis for future mangrove maintenance. However, specific firms contracted for implementation may vary based on the cost effectiveness of proposals received at the time of implementation. Review of the benthic community has already begun with the sediment samples/analysis performed in the data collection phase of this project. Future Action: Action required is as follows: 1. Review and approve the future mangrove maintenance plan. 2. Review historical, biological and ecological data; identify gaps in data sets; and make preliminary recommendations based on these reviews to determine future direction in regard to improving the health of the estuary. 3. Develop and recommend a budget to accomplish this activity. These activities will be completed and integrated into the final management plan issued in 2010. Maintenance DredEinE and Sand BvpassinE Task: This activity will consist of reviewing previous reports on channel related issues and the evaluation of various dredging cross sections to stabilize Clam Pass and determine the optimum flushing levels of Clam Bay. Status: This work was not planned to start until the 10 year permit was finalized and would be the second portion of the modeling program. FDEP is leaning towards completion of the modeling program as part of the lO-year permit. If this is the case, modeling of the system will be a permit condition and will begin as soon as the data collection is completed. Future Action: It is anticipated that this item will be included in the final management pian that will be presented to the BCC in 2010. Clam Bay Advisory Committee Update and Recommendations - 9/25/2009 Page 5 Agenda Item No. 10F December 15, 2009 Page 10 of 133 Public Education and Outreach ~ This activity will prepare outlines of a proposed education plan for the public, local residences and stakeholders of the Estuary waters. The plan will include suggested material needs and methods for reaching all of the Estuary users. The focus of the public outreach program will involve all stakeholders on the need for public involvement and action to help assure the long-term viability of the Estuary. Status: A special committee consisting of CBAC leadership with members of the public residing in Sea Gate and Pelican Bay was formed to develop a public education and outreach program. The highlights oftheir recommendations are as follows: 1. That an open letter be sent from CBAC's chairperson to the Pelican Bay, Sea gate, and Naples Cay communities to update them on the status of Clam Bay and Clam Pass activities. This direct mailing would assure maximum exposure to some 8,500 households on and contiguous to Clam Bay. Mailed updates may follow as needed until the CBAC ceases to exist and/or the projects are completed. Additionally, every effort should be made to place similar information in all available traditional media and community outlets. 2. Likewise, that a direct, informational communication be placed on every available, relevant web site, starting with Collier County's own, with postings updates to follow regularly as projects are completed or as new developments occur. 3. That the educational component of Clam Bay and Clam Pass should be showcased to enhance the public understanding of this valuable estuary system. To that end, a critical review should be made of all informational and instructional signage on and around Clam Bay with an eye toward adequacy, effectiveness, and modernization. Future Action: The recommendations of the special committee will be finalized and included in the final report to the BCC in 2010. Budl1:et and Fundinl1: Sources Task: This activity reviews all of the recommendations of the Clam Bay Advisory Committee and formulates estimated funding requirements and sources offunds to enable implementation ofthe recommended management plan. It identifies possible funding sources such as the Tourist Development Council, local City governments and associations, national, state and county governments and a review of availability of grants from all possible sources. Clam Bay Advisory Committee Update and Recommendations - 9/25/2009 Page 6 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 11 of 133 Status: A copy of the funding requirements through the development of a management plan is attached. Future Action: Receive approval from the BCC for this final long term budget and funding plan. Committee Future Task: Per Ordinance, the Clam Bay Advisory Committee is schedule to sunset on 12/31/2009 unless an extension of the sunsetting provision is requested of the BCC by the CBAC by 10/20/2009. Status: As noted in this status report the CBAC requires time beyond 2009 to complete its testing, its review of data, its completion of a long term management plan for the Estuary and its recommendations on the management of such plan. Future Action: The Clam Bay Advisory Committee is requesting that this advisory committee not be sunsetted until the Management Plan for Clam Pass/Clam Bay has been developed, vetted within the community and approved by the BCe. This will require a first extension of the Committee by the BCC through June 30, 2010. Additional extensions or permanent status may be considered by the Bee at that time.

These elements are summarized below. Review of the existing Water Quality Data within the Clam Bay System indicates: 1. While there are numerous water quality monitoring programs throughout the Clam and Moorings Bays systems, the water quality data from efforts in Clam Bay is not being placed into the State of Florida's Storage and Retrieval (STORET) database. This is inconsistent with guidance given to 'local governments through Florida Administrative Code (FAC 62-40.540(3)) and Florida Statutes (FS 373.026(2)). Data collected by the City of Naples for Moorings Bay is being placed into STORET. 2. The lack of data placed in the STORET system could trigger FDEP to perform its own data collection program similar to recent efforts in Rookery Bay and the Gordon River. In both these instances, state-directed sampling and/or data interpretation resulted in impaired water body classification, and a state mandated/directed remediation plan was developed for the Gordon River. 3. Water quality data collected by the Conservancy of Southwest Florida does not meet the requirements for parameter lists that are required by both the State of Florida's Impaired Waters Rule (IWR) and Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL) program. The database for water quality data collected by the Pelican Bay Services Division (Division) includes obvious errors, although more recent data (as of 2005) appear to not have these same problems. The collection sites visited by the Division are for permit-required monitoring efforts and most locations are not suitable for baseline ambient water qnality monitoring programs. Five of the sites visited by the Division were used here for further ambient water quality analysis, despite limitations due to sample locations. 4. Data from these five locations, while not properly located for ambient monitoring purposes, clearly indicate that Clam Bay would be classified as a "VeJified Impaired" for water quality. Levels of dissolved oxygen (DO) are frequently below standards set in the IWR (FAC 62-302.530). Additionally, the data indicates that portions of Clam Bay exceed threshold values of chlorophyll-a established in the IWR (FAC 62-302.530). As such, Clam Bay would be classified as "Verified Impaired" for both DO and nutrients. However, both the DO and the ch10rophyll-a standards set by the State of Florida can be inappropriate for Southwest Florida water bodies; Collier County should work with staff from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection to develop site specific alternative criteria for both these parameters. This would allow Collier County to respond PBS.' ., Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Executive Suil'lmat9f 133 to actual water quality problems, without diluting its efforts by pursumg "fixes" to impairments that are naturally occurring. 5. Chlorophyll-a is an indicator of phytoplankton abnndance and is frequently characterized as an indicator of how green the water appears. To control Chlorophyll-a in Clam Bay, three critical parameters need to be addressed; Total Nitrogen, Total Phosphorus and Retention Time. 6. A draft water quality monitoring program for Clam Bay is outlined within this report. It is strongly recommended that such a program be implemented and information collected be entered into STORET. Additional information on nitrogen and phosphorus (organic or inorganic) and retention time is needed before any recommendations related to system- wide restoration can be made. One of the critical indicators of the biological health of the estuary is how deep oxygen can penetrate into the sediments. Deeper penetration of oxygen into the sediment layer generally indicates a system with a greater diversity of life (Flora and Fauna) to support a variety of marine organisms. A general biological survey of Clam Bay and Moorings Bay found that: I. The Redox layer, an indicator of how deep into the sediments oxygen can penetrate, was much deeper on average in Moorings Bay than in Clam Bay. Upper Clam Bay had the shallowest Redox depths, followed by Outer Clam Bay and then Inner Clam Bay. 2. A fine-grained sediment layer was found in most locations of Outer Clam Bay. This sediment depth was approximately 5 feet in the arca of the Seagate canals, was not prevalent in Moorings Bay, and varied in depth in Outer, Inner and Uppcr Clam Bays. 3. It is not known at this time if the fine-grained sediment layer is naturally occun'ing, or occuning as a result of man-made changes to the Clam Bay system. It is, however, known that the sediment layer in the Seagate canals has accumulated since the canals were dug in the 1950s. 4. Fine-grained sediments similar to the ones found throughout Clam Bay typically attract contaminants. A 1997 study by Collier County confirmed elevated levels of various contaminants in the sediments of Clam Bay, at levels expected to adversely impact the health of benthic communities. It is strongly rccommended that more recent contaminant levels and the age of the sediment layer be determined to indicate if contaminant levels are increasing, and if the sediment layer is naturally occurring or a rcsu]t of reduced circulation. 5. These same sediments appear to create conditions that limit the diffusion of dissolved oxygen into the bottom. PBSl ji Clam Bay System Data Collection and AnalysiS October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Executive Surnmaryf 133 6, The shallow Redox layer depths in most of Clam Bay, in combination with the fine- grained sediments found in most locations, suggest that benthic (i.e., "bottom-dwelling") communities in Clam Bay wonld be expected to be less diverse than in Moorings Bay. 7. Clam Bay and Moorings Bay are functionally different systems, and it is neither possible nor appropriate to expect these two systems to have similar ecological functions; an appropriate question is not whether or not Clam Bay is different from Moorings Bay, but whether the water quality and sediment composition of Clam Bay is a natural condition or the result of changes in pollutant loads and/or circulation patterns, 8, It is highly recommended that Collier County pursue a sediment toxicology and sediment aging study within the Clam Bay system. In reviewing the previous circulation model for Clam Bay completed by Humiston & Moore as well as the flow calculations by Tackney & Associates, the following key points are offered: 1. The previous circulation model was completed in 2003 by Hnmiston and Moore for Clam Bay was sufficient and effective for its purpose at the time. Its purpose was to investigate the freshwater and saltwater flows required to address mangrove die-off in the north of the estuary. It was never designed as a comprehensive model to improve tidal flushing for the health of the entire estuary. 2. A number of critical issues limit the Humiston & Moore model's ability to function as a comprehensive model for the Clam Bay and Moorings Bay system. These limitations include: a. The model boundary ended at Seagate Drive, and did not include exchange between Clam Bay and Moorings Bay, b. The model domain does not include water movement into (and then out of) the mangrove forest during normal tidal cycles and high water events. c. Only one stormwater input is included in the model's water budget. d. The model's offshore tidal boundary was limited in both amplitude and duration. e. The model was calibrated for tidal range only, not flow velocities. 3. Modifying the Humiston and Moore's model to fnnction as a comprehensive model will essentially require starting from scratch with the model development. 4. If staI1ing from scratch is required, then it is desirable to have the capability for varying models (circulation, constituent transport, morphology, etc.) to be linked together on a common platform.

The 1996 report by Tackney & Associates includes basic theoretical calculations regarding tidal attenuation and water level setup within the Clam Bay system, supported by a field data collection effort. Also included is a discussion about inlet stability, and while this discussion is theoretically sound, the rep0l1 provides limited to no calculations or analysis to relate these conjectures specifically to Clam Pass. A preliminary model was mentioned, but no report or model could be located. 6. The Tackney report measured currents at the Seagate Dr culverts, and used a basic estimation of flow variation to conclude that flow is uniform in both directions, resulting in little net exchange. The field work effort of August 2009 showed that this is not the case; due to tidal elevation and phase differences between Clam Bay and Moorings Bay, southerly flow dominates at Seagate Dr, and net water exchange is southerly from Clam Bay into Moorings Bay. With respect to water circulation and flushing in the system: 1. The Clam Bay system was impacted in the early 1950s by construction of two roads; Vanderbilt Beach Road to the north, and Seagate Drive to the south. As it was originally configured, Seagate Drive closed tidal connections to the south, and Clam Pass was left as the only connection between Upper, Inner and Outer Clam Bays and the Gulf of Mexico. 2. In response to water quality concerns, culverts were placed under Seagate Drive in 1976 to allow for tidal exchange between Clam and Moorings Bays. Originally, the culverts were intended to allow flows only from Moorings Bay into Clam Bay, but their construction was such that flows actually could occur in both directions. In the 1980s, the tidal connection between Upper Clam Bay and Vanderbilt Lagoon was severed due to development activities (Collier County, 1997). 3. Although Clam Bay's watershed had been developed rather extensively, the shoreline features of Clam Bay have not been altered nearly as much as the shoreline features of Moorings Bay, which had undergone significant modifications due to dredge and fill activities as early as the 1970s. 4. In the late 1990s, as a result of observed mangrove die-offs, a permit was obtained to conduct dredging activity within Clam Pass and Clam Bay. Three dredging events have taken place over the past 10 years. The dredging activity focused on improving water circulation and flushing, largely to Upper and Inner Clam Bays, by deepening the Pass and interior channels within the estuary. 5. Hydrographic data (currents and water levels) was collected in the Clam Bay and Moorings Bay systems over an eight day period in August 2009. In Clam Bay, tidal ranges declined in amplitude and lagged in phase with increased distance from Clam Pass, a result of channel meandering, constrictions, and friction losses in the system. PBSI Iv Clam Say System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Executive SummM-9f 133 Conversely, in Moorings Bay, there was little to no tidal amplitude attenuation and little phase lag with respect to Doctor's Pass. 6. The tidal range in Moorings Bay was greater than the tidal range observed in Clam Bay, indicating Moorings Bay experiences greater water circulation and flushing than Clam Bay. In addition, Moorings Bay experiences less tidal lag then found in Clam Bay. 7. In the area of Seagate Drive, maximum current velocities were ten times greater in the southerly direction than in the northerly direction, and water levels at low tide were up to ].5 ft higher on the north side (Clam Bay) versus the south side (Moorings Bay), resulting in a net flow of water southward of 969,000 cubic feet per tidal cycle from Clam Bay into Moorings Bay. Due to the net southerly exchange, it would appear that water quality in Clam Bay is not strongly affected by Moorings Bay. 8. In order to analyze potential changes to the system to optimize circulation and dissolved oxygen (DO) within Clam Bay, a hydrodynamic model will need to be developed to understand the interactions between Clam Bay (Upper, Inner and Outer), Clam Pass, Moorings Bay, and Doctor's Pass.

Associated with the increased development of Collier County, there has been concern among the public that Clam Bay and Moorings Bay have perhaps been adversely impacted by environmental pressures that accompany development. In its historical configuration, Clam Bay and Moorings Bay would have had fresh water discharges mostly via small tidal creeks and groundwater inflow. Watershed development most likely increased both the amount of freshwater discharged into these systems as well as the amount of total suspended solids, nitrogen and phosphorus (PBS&J, 2008). Additionally, it was likely that in their historical configurations, the inlets that connected Clam Bay and Moorings Bay to the Gulf of Mexico likely migrated and closed periodically due to the influence of various tropical storm events (Collier County, 1997). More recently, water quality changes that typically accompany the closing of such inlets are viewed as unacceptable to the general public, and so Clam Pass in particular has been the focns of much activity to keep it open since at least the 1970s (Collier County, 1997). In the late 1990s, as a result of observed mangrove die-offs, a permit was obtained to conduct dredging activity within Clam Pass and Clam Bay. Three dredging events have taken place over the past 10 years (1999, 2002 & 2007). The dredging activity focused on improving water circulation and flushing, largely to Upper and Inner Clam Bays, by deepening the Pass and interior channels within the estuary. The Clam Bay watershed, like much of Collier County, has experienced dramatic changes over the past 60 years. In the 1940s, there was little evidence of human modifications to Clam Bay and its immediate watershed (Figure I. I). In contrast, much of the shoreline of Moorings Bay was significantly altered through dredge and fill activity, such that natural shoreline features in the northern portions of Moorings Bay were mostly absent by the 1950s (Figures 1.2 and 1.3). PBSI Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item No. 10F December 15. 2009 Introcftt~j(iAf 133 Figure 1.1. Aerial Photo (circa 1940s) of Outer Clam Bay and immediate watershed Figure 1.2. Aerial Photo (1958) of northern Moorings Bay and Outer Clam Bay (photo from Antonini et aI., 2003). PHSI 2 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Introcftj~iGflf 133 In its pre-development condition, both Doctor's Pass and Clam Pass were small natnral tidal inlets, and both were subject to migration and closure (Antonini et a!., 2003). The Clam Bay and Moorings Bay systems were also connected to each other via narrow and winding tidal creeks in the vicinity of today' s Seagate Drive. The Clam Bay system was impacted in the early 1950s by construction of two roads; Vanderbilt Beach Road to the north and Seagate Drive to the south. As it was originally configured, Seagate Drive closed tidal connections to the south, and Clam Pass was left as the only connection of Upper, Inner and Outer Clam Bays to the Gulf. In response to water quality concerns, culverts were placed under Seagate Drive in 1976 to allow for tidal exchange between Clam and Moorings Bays. Originally, the culverts were intended to allow flows only from Moorings Bay into Clam Bay, but their construction was such that flows actually could occnr in both directions (Collier County, 1997). In the 1980s, the tidal connection between Upper Clam Bay arid Vanderbilt Lagoon was severed due to development activities (Collier County, 1997). Although Clam Bay's watershed had been developed rather extensively, the shoreline featnres of Clam Bay (Figure 1.3) have not been altered nearly as much as the shoreline features of Moorings Bay, which had undergone significant modifications due to dredge and fill activities as early as the] 970s (Figure 1.4). Figure 1.3. Aerial photograph (2006) of Clam Bay and immediate watershed PHS' ., 3 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item No. 10F December 15, 2009 Introcfil~FOAf 133 Figure 1.4. Aerial photograph (1970s) of Moorings Bay and immediate watershed (photo from Antonini et aI., 2003). Prior studies in similar lagoonal systems in Southwest Florida suggest that increased urbanization brings about increased freshwater inflows and substantial increases in nonpoint sources of both nitrogen and phosphorus (i.e., Lemon Bay; Tomasko et aI., 2001). In the early 1990s, an area of mangrove die-off of approximately seven acres was discovered in Upper Clam Bay, north of Clam Pass. By the mid-I990s, the area of die-off (affecting mostly black mangroves) had expanded to approximately 50 acres. In response to the die-off, Pelican Bay residents acquired the services of a series of consultants to develop a plan of action to remediate the mangrove loss. In the meantime, various intermediate measures were performed, including the dredging of Clam Pass in April 1996 and the clearing of several channels by hand evacuation in August and November 1996 (Conservancy of Southwest Florida, 1997). Based on assessments of water quality data collected by Collier County Environmental Services and the Pelican Bay Services District, there did not appear to be evidence that mangrove mortality was caused by elevated levels of any toxic chemicals, nor did the data suggest changes in nutrient concentrations would have been a likely factor in die-off. Instead, the conclusion was reached that die-off was likely due to excessive freshwater input to the system from the adjacent developed uplands and an inadequate dispersion of the increased freshwater input due to severely constricted tidal channels in the mangrove forest. As a result, the mangrove forest became inundated with water levels higher than the tops of the black mangrove pneumatophores. The duration of increased water levels was sufficient to kill the trees by blocking oxygen exchange to the below ground tissues. In 1998, the Collier County-Pelican Bay Services Division was issued PBSI 4 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 IntrocfiJ~iOl"lf 133 a permit to restore and manage the Clam Bay Natural Resource Protection Area based on the Clam Bay Restoration and Management Plan (Brown and Hillestad, 1998). The management component of the Clam Bay Restoration and Management Plan consists of four major activities: 1. Retrofitting of the culverts under Seagate Drive with flap gates, such that flow only goes north. 2. Re-dredging of Clam Pass. 3. Excavation of tidal connections in interior portions of Upper Clam Bay. 4. Development of stormwater best management plans for on-site retention of water from surrounding development. 1.2 Outline of Present Study In response to concerns related to the issues of water quality and circulation in the Clam Bay and Moorings Bay systems, Collier County requested PBS&J prepare a proposal to conduct a circulation and water qnaJity study to determine the following: . What is the extent and relative health of the natural resources in Clam Bay and Moorings Bay? . What do historical data suggest, in tenns of status and trends, about the health of Clam Bay and Moorings Bay? · How do circulation patterns and nutrient delivery interact to create spatial patterns of water quality in Clam Bay and Moorings Bay, and how these patterns affect the estuarine flora and fauna? · How will changes in circulation within Clam Bay and between Clam Bay and Moorings Bay affect the overall estuary (as defined in Figure 1.5)?

This report summarizes results obtained to-date on these questions. PBSJ 6 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 29 of 133 2.0 Methods 2.1 Task 1 - Development of a Water Quality Monitoring Program The City of Naples currently conducts water quality monitoring at four stations in Moorings Bay, immediately to the south of Clam Bay. In addition, water quality monitoring in Clam Bay has been conducted by the Pelican Bay Services Division (PBSD) since 1991, and was conducted by the Pelican Bay Improvement District prior to that date. This portion of the project was to determine station locations, water quality parameters, and sampling frequencies that would allow for the development of an integrated water quality monitoring program for both Clam Bay and Moorings Bay. 2.2 Task 2 - Status and Trends of Water Quality within Clam Bay and Moorings Bay Based on a collaborative effort between major stakeholders and County staff, a list of contacts that might possess appropriate water quality data sets was developed. Water quality data sets were then asked for and received from the Pelican Bay Services Division, Collier County, the City of Naples, and the Conservancy of Southwest Florida. Water quality stations were identified as to their geographic location, and data were analyzed to determine the status and trends (if any) in water quality over time. 2.3 Task 3 - Sediment and Biological Health Characterization This characterization involved the investigation of Redox depths, seagrass coverage, and macroalgal coverage throughout the Clam and Moorings Bays system. Field sampling occulTed during a 2 day period in August 2009. Sample locations were randomly assigned using ArcGIS, but were stratified such that different energy/circulation regimes throughout the project area would be visited, i.e. dead-end channels, shallow vegetated areas, shoal locations, navigation canals, tidal canals, etc. Samples were collected by inse11ing a clear PVC tube - sediment sampler into the bottom sediments until penetration through any potential organic-rich layers. Following recovery, the samples were measured for depth to any visible Redox layers (an indicator of oxygen availability). At each site, observations were made of the general biological community structure and health (i.e., presence of bivalve siphons, seagrass and/or macroalgal abundance, etc.). PBSl 7 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 M~tfti'(lSf 133 2.4 Task 4 - Physical Data Collection Hydrographic Survey This task consisted of completing a bathymetric survey of a portion of the project area. The bathymetric survey of the project area included Clam Pass (including the ebb shoal complex), Upper, Inner, and Outer Clam Bay, and Moorings Bay. The purpose of the survey was to delineate the existing bottom topography in order to create an np-to-date elevation data set. Existing published benchmarks were utilized. The horizontal datum (coordinates) were referenced to the North American Datum 1983 (NAD83) Florida State Plane Coordinate System. The vertical datum (elevations) was referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NA VD88) and will be based on published horizontal and vertical control points. Drawings . were prepared showing the bottom elevations and contours. Cross-sections were created indicating measured water depths, tide information, and existing bottom grades. Standard survey quality depth sounding equipment was used to record water depth data where possible for the project area. Differential GPS and a high frequency single beam digital fathometer linked to Hypack data collection software were utilized. Cross sections were taken at a maximum 200 foot interval throughout the survey area. Currents/Water levels CmTent and water level measurements were taken within the project area over a period of 8 days for use in a planning level circulation analysis. This data can also be used for the calibration of a potential hydrodynamic numerical model. Cnrrents and water levels were measured at five and seven locations within the project area, respectively. These measurements were obtained through a field deployment using the following instruments: · Coastal Leasing Microtide Gauges (7) o Placed: (I) Upper Clam Bay, (2) Inner Clam Bay, (3) Outer Clam Bay, (4) Gulfside Clam Pass, (5) Gulf side Doctor's Pass, (6) north of Seagate Drive in Outer Clam Bay, (7) south of Seagate Drive in Moorings Bay. · Workhorse Sentinel (3) and Sontek SW (3) current meters with water level o Velocity and water level at five locations throughout domain: (I) Clam Pass throat, (2) Clam Bay north pedestrian bridge, (3) Clam Bay south pedestrian bridge, (4) South of Seagate Drive culvert, (5) Park Shore Drive bridge, and (6) Harbour Drive bridge Key issues to be addressed using the results include: · Velocities and flow rates through Clam Pass · Flow exchange volume and direction between Clam Bay and Venetian Bay through the Seagate Driveculvel1 PHS1 8 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15. 2009 M~hti'dSf 133 · Water level differences and tidal phase lag between Clam Pass, Clam Bay, Venetian Bay, Moorings Bay, and Doctor's Pass Graphics were prepared showing the above parameters during the time of deployment. This information may be used to gain a working understanding of the circulation patterns in the Clam Bay and adjacent water bodies, as well as develop alternatives for enhancing restoration efforts within Clam Bay through a comprehensive numerical modeling effort.

The water quality monitoring efforts of the City of Naples, in Moorings Bay, are the most recently- initiated efforts. A short-term water quality data set from PBS&J, focused on Outer Clam Bay, was conducted in 2007 only. In contrast, there are much longer timelines for water quality data collection efforts by both the Conservancy of Southwest Florida (Conservancy) and the Pelican Bay Services Division (Pelican Bay).

Pelican Bay Services Division stations in blue, PBS&J (2008) sites in red, Conservancy of Southwest Florida stations in white, and City of Naples stations in yellow. There is no single water quality monitoring program throughout thc cntire Clam and Moorings Bays system. The Pelican Bay monitoring program, which was originally designed to answcr specific permit-related water quality questions, includes stations that are appropriate for permitting needs but would not be appropriate for an ambient monitoring program; a smaller subset of stations (described below) were thc focus of trend analysis efforts. In contrast, stations used by the Conservancy for its monitoring efforts tcnd to be located in more open-water locations, and are, on the whole, appropriately sited for a monitoring eff0l1. Station locations used by PBS&J (2008) were in adequate locations for Outer Clam Bay, and could be useful locations for further sampling efforts.

Of particular note, the nutrient data collected and reported by the Conservancy only includes inorganic nutrients (both nitrogen and phosphorus). Inorganic nutrient levels are not adequate for rep011ing on nutrient loading and/or nutrient enrichment, as levels of inorganic nutrients can be low because of low input, or low due to rapid uptake, concepts established by numerous prior researchers (e.g., Smith et al. 1981, Valiela et al. 1990, Tomasko and Lapointe 199 I). For this reason and others, the data collected by the Conservancy cannot be used for assessing the health of the Clam and Moorings Bays systems as related to nutrient issues. 3.2 Task 2 - Status and Trends of Water Quality within Clam and Moorings Bays Pelican Bay has the most extensive dataset available for the Clam Bay system. The Pelican Bay sampling effort began in November 198] with water samples continuing to be sampled monthly. A large suite of water quality parameters are analyzed including: total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), nitrate (N03), nitrite (NOe), total phosphorus (TP), chlorophyll a (ChI a) and dissolved oxygen (DO). Sampling sites were located in both the mangrove fringe as well as near the open water of the bays. As the berm locations are insufficient for analysis for an ambient water quality monitoring program (although they are useful for permit compliance issues) a subset of 5 sampling sites were identified for status and trend analysis (Figure 3.3). These stations are labeled as UCBRK (in the northcrnmost portions of Upper Clam Bay, along the shoreline) W-7 (at the n011hern trolley bridge), W-6 (at the trolley bridge n011h of Clam Pass), W-1 (at the canoe ramp at the park), and Seagate (at Seagate Drive).

Sampling for the UCBRK and Seagate sites began in October 1996. Extremely elevated concentrations of DO were observed between August 2001 and August 2002; these data must have been reported inaccurately, and cannot be representative of the ambient DO readings at that time. To accommodate this data problem, Figure 3.5 was created, where the y_ axis was truncated at a more realistic maximum DO level of 10 mg/l.

Based upon existing criteria from FDEP, Clam Bay would likely be declared verified impaired due to elevated chlorophyll a concentrations. Limiting Nutrient W6 Station WI Multiple techniqnes are available to assist in the identification of the limiting nutrient responsible for phytoplankton production. The ratio between TN and TP was calculated for each site from January 1005 until May 2009 (Figure 3.10). A co-limited system generally has TN:TP values between 10 and 30 (FDEP, 1996). A ratio greater than 30 indicates a phosphorus-limited system whereas a ratio below 10 indicates a nitrogen-limited system. In Clam Bay, overall the TN:TP ratio indicate a co-limited system with periods of both niLrogen and phosphorus limitation. Additionally, the relationship between chlorophyll a and TN or TP was evaluated in PBS&J (2008) to further evaluate the limited nutrient (Figure 3. 1 I and 3.12, respectively).

The cOITelation between TP and chlorophyll a is stronger than that between TN and chlorophyll a, indicating that nitrogen is not as strong a limiting factor to phytoplankton growth as phosphorus. While phosphorus may be the more strongly limiting nutrient, it would be prudent to not focus nutrient management strategies on phosphorus alone. When examining the status and trends in nitrogen and phosphorus, it would be useful to consider that the abundance of both nutrients should be of concern. Total Nitrogen For each of the sites of interest, total nitrogen was calculated by the summation of TKN, N03 and N02 (Figure 3.13). Total nitrogen data are available for sites W-6, W-7 and W-I from November 1981 to May 2009. Data for the UCBRK and Seagate sites began in October 1996. The data were compared to the median and 90% value for all Florida estuaries (FDEP, 1996; 0.8 and 1.6 mgfL, respectively). The greatest TN concentration was found at the UCBRK site with concentrations decreasing the further south in the watershed sampled (Figure 3.14).

PHSI 28 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item No. 10F December 15, 2009 Water Quality Review and ARMySisf 133 These data suggest that benthic communities would be expected to be of lower diversity (if not abundance) in both Upper and Outer Clam Bays.

Seagrass was only rarely encountered in the Clam and Moorings Bays system. In contrast to the findings in the Clam Bay seagrass study conducted by PBS&J (2008) seagrass was not found in most of the stations visited in Outer Clam Bay, perhaps due to the relatively ephemeral nature of the species previously documented, Halophila decipiens. This species, as opposed to shoal grass PBSJ , 29 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Water Quality Review and AR~Sf 133 , (Halodule wrightii) or turtle grass (Thalassia testudinum) does not form persistent meadows, and it typically propagates via sexual reproduction, which is relatively rare among most species of seagrass in Florida (e.g., Dawes et al. 1989). In contrast to seagrass, macroalgae were commonly encountered in all regions surveyed except for Upper and Outer Clam Bays (Figure 3.] 9).

Further, " The Department's FLORIDA STORET water quality data base shall be the central repository of the state's water quality data. To assure that it is readily available to the public and for use in the Department's watershed management program, all appropriate water quality data collected by the Department, Districts, local governments, and state agencies shall be placed in the FLORIDA STORET system within one year of collection." The absence of Clam Bay data sets in the STORET system is inconsistent with Florida Administrative Code, and efforts should be made to ensure that appropriate water quality data are provided to FDEP for uploading into STORET. It is also evident that the dissolved oxygen (DO) data collected to-date in Clam Bay would result in classification of Clam Bay as impaired using guidance contained within FDEP's Impaired Waters Rule (IWR). Guidance within the IWR could also likely result in the classification of portions of Clam Bay as impaired for chlorophyll a, pW1icularly in Upper Clam Bay. However, it is important to note that IWR guidance on DO and chlorophyll a can be locally inappropriate, particnlarly in subtropical systems. In their study of dissolved oxygen levels in the Everglades, McCormick ct al. (1997) studied both nutrient-impacted sites and reference sites. The reference sites all had levels of total phosphorus below adopted guidance for Everglades restoration efforts, and were characterized by healthy assemblages of emergent plant communities. McCormick et al. (1997) found that".. .even at reference sites, O2 was less than the 5 mg r' water quality standard for other water bodies (State of Florida Class III Standards) from 40-70% of time." Reference sites used in the Everglades study by McCormick et al. (1997) and also in the Gordon River TMDL rcport (FDEP 2008) failed the State of Florida's DO standards for both freshwater and marine waterbodies. Collier County should consider working with FDEP to develop locally- appropriate site-specific alternative criteria (SSAC) for both DO and chlorophyll a for the Clam Bay and Moorings Bay systems. The need for SSACs for DO and chlorophyll a is further highlighted due in part to the discrepancy between actual water quality and "anticipated" water quality. For example, the very low levels of DO throughout the Clam Bay system, both from the review of historical water quality data and as infcrred based on Redox depths, is not necessarily indicative of a nutrient- enriched water body. While chlorophyll a levels wcre not uncommonly above the impairment threshold level of 1 I ug/l, only the Upper Clam Bay system would be declared impaired based on annual averages (the requirement for an impairment determination). Also, levels of TN and TP are frequently higher than the median value for Florida estuaries (40 to 80% of TN values exceed the Florida median, and I () to 80% of TP values exceed the Florida median), the highest values w'e typically found in Upper Clam Bay, rather than the more urbanized location of the Seagate Drive station. These findings suggest that circulation, perhaps more than nutrient loading, might be responsible for spatial patlcrns of water quality in the Clam Bay system. PBSI 33 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item No. 10F December 15, 2009 Water Quality Discussion and Recommend'atltfAsf 133 The finding that Redox layers are almost uniformly deeper in Moorings Bay than in Clam Bay further suggests that the more well flushed Moorings Bay system (see circulation results) is better able to accommodate nutrient enrichment than the less well flushed Clam Bay system. The pollutant loading model for Clam And Moorings Bays produced by PBS&J (2008) further demonstrates that the more "pollnting" Moorings Bay watershed does not seem to result in a more degraded benthic community composition (based on Redox depths). And the finding that the net flow of water in the vicinity of Seagate Drive is north to south suggests that the shallow Redox depths of Clam Bay cannot likely be blamed on a pollutant load imported to Clam Bay waters from the Moorings Bay watershed. Collier County should enact a water quality monitoring program for the entirety of the Clam Bay system, in coordination with the City of Naples ongoing efforts in Moorings Bay. Current monitoring efforts are not adequate for the purposes of ambient water quality monitoring and state requirements for the TMDL program. Such and eff011 needs to be consistent with state certifications and standard operation procedures required by FDEP. Suggested sampling locations are shown in Fignre 4.1, and a suggested sampling parameter list is shown in Table 4.1.

These measures would reduce mean water levcls and crcate more transient wet/dry regions, but could reduce the tidal prism through Clam Pass and possibly affect inlet stability. The H&M model was sufficient for its original purpose, but a new effort is necessary if a comprehensive model of circulation within the system is desired. Limitations of the H&M model include: . The model does not encompass Moorings Bay or account for the exchange between Clam Bay and Moorings Bay. . The model domain does not include the transient wet/dry mangrove forests in Clam Bay. . Only one freshwater inf10w is accounted for as a boundary condition. . The offshore tidal boundary condition was limited in amplitude as well as duration. . The model was calibrated for tidal range only, with no assessment of phase lag or flow velocities. A modeling effort sufficient to properly recreate the hydrodynamics of the Clam Bay / Moorings Bay system would require a near total reboot of the H&M RMA2 model; it is recommended that an updated model be developed using a more comprehensive model, such as Delft3D. Model Report Overview In 2003, Humiston & Moore Engineers (H&M) developed a circulation model of the Clam Bay estuary system for the Pelican Bay Services Division (PBSD). The intent of the modeling effort was to evaluate the effects of varying freshwater inf10w into Upper Clam Bay on water surface elevations in the system and the resulting health/recovery of the mangrove population. The modeling effort utilized RMA2, a finite-element, 2D depth-averaged model. The model grid extended from the culverts at Seagate Drive north to Upper Clam Bay, bounded by the mangrove border and the opening of Clam Pass. The boundary conditions forcing the model hydrodynamics were (I) a varying water surface elevation at the Gulf of Mexico (Clam Pass), and (2) freshwater inf10w at the northern end of Upper Clam Bay. The water surface elevation boundary condition varied in time, while the freshwater inf10w was held constant during each individual model run. The model was calibrated according to measured tidal ranges using a 2.5 PBSJ 37 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Model Rwl'eWf 133 ft tidal range for 24 hr at the Gulf boundary, and verified using a 2 ft tidal range boundary condition. After this process, the freshwater inflow into Upper Clam Bay was varied to determine the resulting effects on water levels in the system. According to the model results, diverting freshwater inflow from Upper Clam Bay into Vanderbilt Lagoon during the rainy season would reduce the mean water level in stressed mangrove areas by 0.15 ft to 0.20 ft, or 40% of the mean tidal range. This diversion would allow mangrove areas that are largely flooded during rainy season to alternatively flood and dry, and this water would have higher salinity than without the Vanderbilt connection. This situation would have a positive impact on mangrove health as well as benthic and marine organisms in the system. A potential drawback to the Vanderbilt diversion is the reduction of the tidal prism through Clam Pass by 10%, which could negatively affect the stability of the inlet. In light of evidence that improved/increased flushing positively impacts mangrove and overall system health, the report recommends that freshwater inflow be diverted from Upper Clam Bay into Vanderbilt Lagoon and the dredging of shallow 'areas in the meanders between bays be continued; in addition, it also suggests that the connections between each bay could be straightened to further improve flushing and exchange within the system. Model Restrictions and Limitations While the H&M model was sufficient and effective for its original intended purpose, there are several limitations that preclude it from being used in a comprehensive study of circulation within and between Clam Bay and MOOlings Bay, even if the model bathymetry were to be updated with the most recent collected data. The first limitation is that of model extent; the model encompasses Clam Bay only, and does not incInde Moorings Bay and Doctors Pass. Based on data collected in August 2009, measurable volumes of water are exchanged between the two bodies of water through the culverts at Seagate Drive. Head (water level) differences during the period of August 14,2009 to August 23, 2009 ranged from -0.44 ft (north < south) to + 1.54 ft, with the Moorings Bay side of the culverts reaching low tide approximately 1.5 hI' before Outer Clam Bay. Flow velocities from Moorings Bay to Clam Bay were observed on the order of 0.33 ft/s, while velocities from Clam Bay into Moorings Bay reached 3 ft/s; the net flow between the basins thus appears to be southward. From these observations, it is apparent that the two systems are physically intertwined, and the hydrodynamics of Outer Clam Bay are at least partially affected by conditions in Moorings Bay. Second, the model's domain is limited to the bays and channels within the mangrove extent; alternately wet and dry regions of mangrove forest are not taken into account. Flow through the mangroves is likely a significant physical process affecting flow and exchange within the system. During the August 2009 data collection period, flow at the bridge north of Clam Pass was observed to be in the range of 2 ft/s when water levels dropped below -0.6 ft NA VD88, during both incoming and outgoing tides. At higher water levels, velocity magnitudes were reduced, irrespective of flow direction. This indicates that at lower water levels, flow is constricted to between mangrove banks and accelerates, while higher water levels allow flow to 'spread out' on PBSl 38 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Model ~RMf 133 the flat mangrove forest, reducing velocities in the channel. Without taking into account the large areas of low-lying, alternating wet/dry regions, modeled flow velocities may be inaccurate at certain tidal stages, and it may be difficult to achieve a true assessment of flushing and tidal exchange. The model is also limited by its inclusion of only a single freshwater inflow at the north end of Upper Clam Bay. While this may be the most significant input, it could be beneficial to include all stormwater sources into Clam Bay, as well as Moorings Bay, as boundary conditions. In addition, the offshore tidal boundary conditions were limited to a range of 2.0 ft to 2.5 ft. Spring tides in the area can have a range in excess of 4 ft, which was observed during August 2009; the model should be calibrated for all expected 'normal' tidal fluctuations. The model was limited to 24-hour run durations; longer time periods would encompass the mixed tidal characteristics of the Gulf and give a more representative portrayal of net flows within the system. Finally, the H&M model was calibrated for tidal range only, with n'o accounting for flow velocities or phase lag between the bays. The phase lag represents the time necessary for the tidal wave to propagate from one basin to the next, and is the driving force behind flow and exchange. For e~ample, the phase lag observed in August 2009 between the north and south sides of Seagate Drive result in flow through the culverts underneath the roadway. A more accurate model calibration should achieve agreement in both phase and amplitude of modeled parameters. Flow velocities are also an important calibration parameter, and as discussed above, are highly dependent on the model domain boundaries. Based on the limitations of the H&M model presented above, it is recommended that an updated modeling effort be implemented if a comprehensive model of circulation within the system is desired. This updated eff0l1 should encompass the entire estuary from Upper Clam Bay to Doctors Pass, include wetting and drying of the mangrove flats, and undergo a more robust calibration effort using both tide and velocity data. While RMA2 could be utilized for this task, the effort necessary to adapt the H&M RMA2 model to the new requirements would be nearly equal to the effort to start fresh with a more robust model, such as Delft3D. Using a model such as Delft30 would also have a distinct advantage over RMA2. The initial modeling effort could include only 2D hydrodynamics, but Delft3D is modular such that the addition of new modeling parameters (3D dynamics, morphology, water quality, etc.) can be added to the basic 20 model framework without the need to recreate a new model. This allows a highly detailed modeling effort to be completed piecewise over time with a single integrated system rather than using multiple disconnected models. PBSI 39 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Model ~;ewf 133 5.2 Review of Clam Bay hydrographic assessment report, Tackney & Associates (1996) Report Overview The study by Tackney (l 996) was undertaken in response to an increasing rate of mangrove die- off in Upper Clam Bay. Its purpose was to determine if the hydraulic characteristics of the Clam Bay system could encourage periods of excessively high water levels in Upper and Inner Clam Bay; also investigated were the Seagate Drive culverts and the stability of Clam Pass. In general, the small depth of Upper and Inner Clam Bays compared to the Gulf tidal range, as well as their distance from Clam Pass, result in diminished tidal ranges in these bays, as well as a mean water surface elevation above that of the Gulf. Freshwater inflow from stormwater sources also increases the mean water level in these bays. Water levels and CUlTent velocities were measured within Clam Bay at 11 and 10 stations, respectively, between May 3 and July 12, 1996. In addition, water levels on either side of Seagate Dr, as well as flow velocity in the culverts below, were measured for a 4 day period. An attempt was made to filter rainfall effects from the data by excluding data adjacent to such events. The field data collection confirmed that Upper and Inner Clam Bays exhibit an attenuated tidal range compared to the Gulf of Mexico, and their mean water surface elevations were about 0.2 ft higher than the mean Gulf level. On the south end of the system, a majority of the tidal attenuation occurs between Clam Pass and the area between the middle and south boardwalks. A bathymetric survey was also completed; it showed that shallow areas between the middle boardwalk and Inner Clam Bay area likely cause of the significant tidal attenuation in the upper reaches of the system. At Seagate Dr, velocities in the culverts were measured to be around 2 to 4 fUs, with a maximum value cif 5 ft/s. Assuming that flow rates are sinusoidal and uniform in both directions, this results in 650,000 cf of water exchanged back and forth during each tide, with little to no net flow. Inlet stability is affected by its scouring capacity, and thus a function of the cun'ent magnitude through the inlet. It is clear that Clam Pass is not particnlarly stable, since it has closed multiple times since the 1970s. Increasing the tidal prism of the pass is the best way to increase its stability; this can be accomplished by removing or reducing the flow restrictions within Clam Bay and allowing for more effective flushing and water exchange. Actions detrimental to inlet stability would include enlarging the opening at Seagate Dr and diverting flow to Vanderbilt Lagoon. PBSI 40 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item No. 10F December 15, 2009 Model ~ie'wf 133 Report Review In general, the basic principles of this rep0l1 are sound. Tidal attenuation and water superelevation in the system is most likely caused by the flow restrictions due to meandering passages and shallow water depths in the creeks between bays, with storm water runoff also a contributing factor. The field data collection augments and supports the theoretical assertions. The conjectures made on inlet stability are accurate in the context of a theoretical discussion. While these basic concluding remarks are seemingly accurate, the report provides limited to no analysis or calculations to support these findings. Basically we have to "take the authors word for it" and while theoretical, these remarks are more opinion then fact. The report indicates that a preliminary model is being developed, but no report or mode] could be located. Furthermore, another point of concern with the findings is the section on flow velocities and resulting estimations of volume exchange between Outer Clam Bay and Moorings Bay. It is unclear how the velocities were measured, and if the directionality of flow was taken into account. It is mentioned that tide data was recorded on either side of the culverts during the current measurements, but these data are not discussed. The report appeared to assume that current direction reached the same magnitude in both directions and for equal durations, resulting in little net flow between the water bodies. The field data collection effort of August 2009 showed that this scenario is clearly not in effect today. The tidal range on the south side of Seagate Dr was 34% larger than that on the north side (4.4 ft vs. 2.9 ft); furthermore, a significant phase lag between the two sides was such that on an outgoing tide, the south side of the culvel1s was as much as 1.5 ft lower than the north side. CUlTent velocities reached 3 ft/s in the southerly direction, but only 0.3 ft/s in the n0l1herly direction. An estimate of volnme exchange for the study period yielded a net flow of 969,000 cf from Outer Clam Bay into Moorings Bay per tidal cycle (l82,000 cf northerly, 1,] 51 ,000 cf southerly). Studies by the USEPA (1975 & 1977) SUPP011 the conclusion of net southerly flow. PBSJ 41 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 64 of 133 6.0 Hydrographic Data Collection Morgan & Eklund, Inc. sent a survey crew to the Clam Pass Project Area a week before the field data collection was to begin to set a network of horizontal and vertical control points in the project area. These control points were referenced horizontally to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83), Florida State Plane East, and vertically to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NA VD 88). The topographic and bathymetric survey would be based on these points, as well as the elevations of the tide and current instruments. Field data collection for the Clam Pass Tide and Cnrrent Study began on August 14, 2009. The team consisting of members of Morgan & Eklund's survey crew and PBS&J's Coastal Group met at Naples Landing Park. The seven Coastal Leasing MicroTide gauges were turned on and set to record the pressure every 10 minutes (Figure 6. l). Figure 6.1. Coastal Leasing MicroTide Gauge and concrete base. The three Workhorse Sentinel Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADeps) were also activated. These instruments are self-contained with the power supply and data recorder in a water-tight case. The team then split into three groups, one group to deploy the offshore/deeper tide gauges, one crew to deploy the inshore/shallow water gauges, and one crew to survey/elevate the gauges. The inshore crew left Clam Pass Park in a 16ft jon boat and wound their way north through the mangroves to Upper Clam Bay. A 1-1/2 inch galvanized pipe was hammered into the bay bottom and Tide Gauge #1 was strapped to the pipe with hose clamps in about 2 ft of water. Tide Gauge #2 was deployed in Inner Clam Bay in about 3 ft of water and strapped with hose clamps to an existing PYC pipe that looked to be part of an old stilling well water level gauge. The location and elevation of these gauges was recorded using Real-Time Kinematic Global Positioning System (RTK GPS; Figure 6.2). PBSI 42 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 ... Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Hydrographic Data Collfe~IGAf 133 The offshore crew left the Naples Landing boat ramp and ran out Gordon Pass in a 25 ft boat to set Tide Gauge #3 on the gulf side of Clam Pass. Upon arriving at the designated position the tide gauge was strapped to a concrete base and lowered to the bottom in about 14 feet of water. An orange anchor buoy marked was attached to the concrete base and a Differential GPS point was taken at the location for recovery. The survey crew shot in the gauges with a level, elevating the gauge to the nearest DEP R-Monument. The process was repeated for Tide Gauge #4 on the Gulf side of Doctor's Pass. It too was set in approximately ]4 ft of water. The offshore crew then proceeded inside Doctor's Pass north to Venetian Bay to set the Tide Gauge #5 on the south side of Seagate Drive in approximately 10 feet of water. The survey crew elevated the gauge to a benchmark in the established control network. Figure 6.2. Elevating Tide Gauge with RTK GPS. The inshore crew then traveled south to Seagate Drive and set Tide Gauge #6 attached to a concrete base on the north side of Seagate Drive in about 5 ft of water. The survey crew used a level to elevate this gauge to a benchmark in the established control network. Tide Gauge #7 was set on a concrete base in Outcr Clam Bay in 3 ft of water and clevated with RTK GPS. The inshore crew then set a Workhorse ADCP "BrdgS" in approximately 4 ft of water on a concrete base at the trolley bridge in Clam Pass Park; this instrument was also elevated with RTK GPS. A second Workhorse ADCP "ClamP" was attached with hose clamps to a 1-1/2 inch galvanized pipe hammered into the bottom in about 4 ft of water inside Clam Pass just cast of the mouth. The survey crew used a level to clevate this instrument from R-42 just south of Clam Pass. A third Workhorse ADCP "BrdgN" was attached to a concrete base and dcployed in 4 ft of water at the trolley bridge north of Clam Pass. RTK GPS was used to elevate this instrument. The three crews then teamed up again to deploy the SonTek Shallow Water ADCPs in Moorings and Venetian Bay. These instruments we not self-contained and had a data and power cable attached to the unit that was fed along the bottom to a onshore battery. A Leve]ogger pressure sensor was attached to the concrete base as well to rccord the water level independent of the SonTek. The first SonTek ADCP/Levclogger was deployed on the north side of the Harbour Dr. Bridge in approximately 15 ft of watcr. The second SonTek ADCP/Levelogger was deployed on PBSJ ., 43 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Hydrographic Data Colf~IGAf 133 the south side of Park Shore Dr. in about 9 ft of water. The third SonTek/Levelogger was deployed on the south side of Seagate Drive in about 5 ft of water. All three SonTek ADCPs were elevated to benchmarks in the established control network with a level (Figure 6.3). On Monday August 17lh, Morgan & Eklund's crew continued with the topographic and bathymetric surveys of Clam Pass, Clam Bays (Upper, Inner, and Outer), Venetian and Moorings Bays, as well as profiles R- 38 through R-44 along the beach. Meanwhile the tide and current instruments were collecting data. Unfortunately, the SonTek ADCP/Levelogger at Seagate Drive was found vandalized on Monday morning. The battery was stolen and the power/data cord was ripped out of the unit. A new power/data cord was sent overnight from SonTek and a new battery was purchased. On Tuesday the SonTek ADCP/Levelogger was redeployed south of Seagate Drive in about 4 ft of water. The battery box and cable was buried in the bushes along the shoreline. On Wednesday moming, the SonTek ADCP/Levelogger at Harbour Dr. was found to have its battery stolen. A new battery was purchased and the instrument was redeployed on Wednesday morning. For the remainder of the week, all instruments were constantly monitored by PBS&J and Morgan & Eklund staff and no vandalism was discovered. Figure 6.3. SonTek ADCP on concrete base. On Saturday, August 22, 2009, the team once again surveyed all of the instruments with a level or RTK GPS prior to removal on Sunday, August 23. All of the mounting pipes and concrete bases were also removed. The data was downloaded from the instruments and plotted in Excel to convert the data from pressure to water level. PBSI 44 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Anaiysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 67 of 133 7.0 Hydrographic Data Analysis 7.1 Introduction The data collection effort yielded conCUlTent water level and flow velocity measurements for a period of 8 days, from August 15 to August 23, 2009. All instruments were successful in collecting data; however, severa] acts of vandalism resulted in the partial loss of flow velocity data at South Seagate Dr and Harbour Dr. Figure 7.1 illustrates the locations of the deployed instruments. The data was processed using Matlab to synchronize each instrument to one another, create graphs and animations of both water level and flow velocities, and estimate flow rates and volume exchange using a combination of water level and flow velocity. The collected data and derived quantities were useful in gaining insight into the circulation patterns and magnitudes within both Clam Bay and Moorings Bay. including the exchange between the two through the Seagate Drive culvel1s. 7.2 Water Levels Figures 7.2 to 7.14 show the water surface elevation time series for 12 locations in Clam Bay and Moorings Bay for the period of August ]5 to August 23, 2009. They are ordered roughly n0l1h to south, starting with Upper Clam Bay and ending with Gulfside Doctor's Pass. The time axis in each graph is marked in 6 hour increments. Table 7.1 outlines the minimum and maximum observed water levels at each location. as well as the observed tidal range (simply the difference between maximum and minimum levels). It should be noted that the water level data from the Clam Pass gauge is of concern, with a range less than expected and an overall elevation that appears to be too low. The data and instrument has been checked multiple times and no problems were found, however it is not recommended to use these data for anything other than phase lag comparisons; the Gulfside Clam Pass data was substituted when determining velocities and flow rates, described in subsequent sections. 45 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 PBSI Agenda Item No. 10F December 15, 2009 Hydrographic Data AR~Sf 133 Table 7.1.

The measured tidal range at both gauges in the Gulf was 4.4 ft; the data is consistent with predicted tides in both elevation and phase (see Figure 7.14) for the period of study. The two locations in the Gulf were almost perfectly in phase. The phase lag between the Gulf and Clam Pass was about 15 minutes. There was negligible lag between Clam Pass and North Bridge, and N0l1h Bridge had a range of only 2.9 ft compared to the 4.4 ft range in the Gulf, a decrease of 34%. To the north, Inner Clam Bay lags North Bridge by about 3.5 hours; this is likely due to friction and loss of momentum as the tide propagates through the winding channels and flooded mangrove forests. The tidal range also drops to less than I ft. As an unexpected observation, Upper Clam Bay appears to lead Inner Clam Bay by approximately 2 hours. The tidal range is I ft, less than 25% of the Gulf tidal range. Both Upper and Inner Bays have a mean tide level about 0.20 ft above the mean Gu]f level, likely due to stormwater inflow forcing a head increase. South of Clam Pass, the tide at South Bridge is 30 minutes behind the tide at North Bridge, due io the farther distance from Clam Pass. Outer Clam Bay and North Seagate Dr are in phase with South Bridge. In Moorings Bay, there is a lag of less than 30 minutes between the Gulf at Doctor's Pass and South Seagate Dr. Dne to the wide opening at Doctor's Pass, as well as the armored shorelines, the tide propagates throughout Moorings Bay with little lag and no reduction in tidal range. South Seagate Dr and the Gulf both have a range of 4.4 ft. This suggests greater flushing of Moorings Bay as compared to Clam Bay. Since South Seagate Dr has a tidal range 1.5 ft larger than North Seagate Dr and the tide propagates faster through Moorings Bay than Clam Bay, there are water ]evel differences observed on either side of Seagate Dr during each tidal cycle; see Figure 7.]0. During incoming tides, the south side has a higher water leve] than the north side, up to 0.25 ft in difference and leading in phase by about 30 minutes. On the olltgoing tide, the south side leads the north by 1.5 hours, with a water level difference of up to 1.5 ft. The result is that water flows back and forth between the two water bodies, with the majority of flow southward from Clam Bay into Moorings Bay, PB51 61 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Hydrographic Data AR~Sf 133 7.3 Current Velocities and Flow Rates Figures 7.15 to 7.26 illustrate the velocity data from the six ADCPs that were deployed in Clam Bay and Moorings Bay for the period of August 15 to August 23, 2009. They are ordered roughly north to south, starting with North Bridge and ending with Harbour Dr. The time axis in each graph is marked in 6 hour increments. At Clam Pass and the two bridges, figures 7.15, 7.17, and 7.19 show the water snrface elevation and current profile over time, with the color of each area scaled to the horizontal velocity magnitude. Figures 7.16, 7.18, and 7.20 show the depth-averaged velocity magnitude with time. At South Seagate Dr, Park Shore Dr, and Harbour Dr, Figures 7.21, 7.23, and 7.25 show both the n0l1hing and easting components of the depth- averaged velocity, while Figures 7.22, 7.24, and 7.26 show the combined horizontal velocity magnitude. As mentioned before, the Gulfside Clam Pass water level was used with the Clam Pass current meter due to a suspect data set. The gaps in the South Seagate Dr and Harbour Dr data were due to acts of vandalism during the deployment. After the Harbour Dr gauge was redeployed, the readings appear to be erroneous due to their small magnitude, but no discrepancies can be found in the data files or instrument setup. For the purposes of calculating flow rates at Harbour Dr, only the data before the vandalism occurred was used. Table 7.2 outlines the current velocities and flow rates for each instrument location. Flow rates were estimated as the depth-averaged velocity multiplied by cross-sectional area at each time step. The cross-sectional area varied with depth corresponding to the tide level. The maximum currents and flow rates were the largest value observed between August 15 and August 23. The 'average tidal prism' means the average volume of water passing the instrument site in either the incoming or outgoing direction during a single tidal cycle (I high tide, 1 low tide). For example, all water moving south at Harbor Dr would be included in the 'outgoing' volume, while all water moving north is designated 'incoming'. The difference in the incoming and outgoing volumes at each location is thus the net flow. It is important to note that the field data was collected during spring tides, where the tidal range is larger than normal (higher highs, lower lows). Also, there were several rainfall events during the study period, which affect water levels in Clam Bay and Moorings Bay due to urban drainage. Evidence of this rainfall can be seen in the water level graphs (Figures 7.2 and 7.3) of Upper and Inner Clam Bay, where it appears the mean water level rises during the week as storm water enters the system.

Outgoing velocities reached 1.8 ftis while incoming velocity peaked at 0.4 fUs, The highest observed flow rate was outgoing at 291 cfs, and net flow per tidal cycle was outgoing on the order of 3,68 million cf, In Clam Pass, peak incoming and outgoing velocities were equal at 3,5 ft/s, with the peak incoming flow rate of 1451 cfs greater than the outgoing rate of 1017 cfs, Accordingly, net flow was observed to be incoming at a rate of 2,93 million cf per tidal cycle, At the South Bridge, incoming and outgoing velocities and flow rates were nearly equal (1.7 to 1,9 ftis and 716 to 777 cfs, respectively), Net flow was slightly outgoing at 566,000 cf per tidal cycle; however, since velocities and fiow rates were similar in both directions, it is very possible that at other times, net flow could be incoming at this location, At Harbour Dr, the maximum outgoing current was 0,6 ftls faster than the maximum incoming current, and outgoing peak flow rates were 14% higher than incoming, Net flow was outgoing, on the order of 2.41 million cf per tidal cycle, The data at Park Shore Dr followed the same pattern, with the outgoing direction being dominant, although lesser in magnitude, As observed in the water level data, the relative responsiveness of Moorings Bay to the Gulf tide in comparison to that of Clam Bay causes water level differences on either side of Seagate Dr of up to 1.5 ft, with the largest differences during outgoing tide, where Clam Bay is perched higher than Moorings Bay, This leads to water flow through the Seagate Dr culverts and exchange between the two water bodies, The maximum nOliherly CUlTent during the study period was 0.3 ft/s (35 cfs), while the maximum southerly current was 3,0 ft/s (108 cfs), an order of magnitude of difference, These conditions yield an average net flow volume of 969,000 cf of water to flow from Clam Bay into Moorings Bay during each tidal cycle (182,000 cf flow from Moorings Bay to Clam Bay; 1,151,000 cffiow from Clam Bay to Moorings Bay), 7.4 Conclusions It is important to note that the flow calculations are based on the conditions during the study period and the resultant trends may only be applicable to the study period, However, previous studies have documented similar trends in tidal range, tidal phase lag, and flow, Relative tidal ranges and phase lag trends in this study are comparable to data collected by Humiston & Moore (2007), The USEP A (1977) performed an analysis of fiow through the Seagate Dr culverts, and determined that net flow was southward, Clam Bay and Moorings Bay are two very different bodies of water that form a single interactive system, Due to channel meandering, constriction, and friction from mangrove forests, there is significant phase lag and tidal range attenuation throughout the Clam Bay system, The tidal range in Upper Clam Bay and Inner Clam Bay is reduced by 75% with respect to the Gulf of Mexico, with a lag in phase of 3,5 hours, Likely due to stormwater drainage, their mean water levels are 0,2 ft above the Gulf, Even in Outer Clam Bay, the tidal range is reduced by 34%, and the phase lag is 30 to 45 minutes behind the Gulf, PBSI 76 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item No.1 OF December 15, 2009 Hydrographic Data Atl~sf 133 Moorings Bay, on the other hand, does not experience the tidal lag and attenuation found in Clam Bay, On the south side of Seagate Dr, which is the northern terminus of Moorings Bay, the tidal range is identical to that in the Gulf, and phase lag is negligible, This is due to the hardened shore of Moorings Bay, which does not absorb as much tidal energy, as well as the larger opening of Doctor's Pass encouraging flushing, At Seagate Dr, the combination of a full, responsive tide on the south side and a lagging, attenuated tide on the north side leads to water level differences at this location, which drives water flow and exchange through the culverts beneath Seagate Dr. Just south of the culverts, the peak southerly current is 3,0 fUs, while the peak northerly current is only 0,3 fUs, Peak flow volume rates are 3 times higher in the southerly direction, Tn an average tidal cycle during the field study, 182,000 cf of water moved from Moorings Bay to Clam Bay, while 1,151,000 cf moved from Clam Bay to Moorings Bay, Net flow is thus 969,000 cf of water per tidal cycle from Clam Bay into Moorings Bay, Because net flow is overwhelmingly southerly into Moorings Bay, Moorings Bay is more affected by conditions in Clam Bay than vice-versa, In order to analyze potential changes to the system to improve circulation and dissolved oxygen (DO) within the Clam Bay system, a hydrodynamic model will need to be developed to understand the interactions between Clam Bay (Upper, Inner and Outer), Clam Pass, Moorings Bay, and Doctor's Pass, PHSI 77 Clam Bay System Data Collection and Analysis October 2009 Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 100 of 133 8.0 References Antonini, G" D,A, Fann, and p, Roat. 2002, A Historical Geography of Southwest Florida Waterways: Volume Two: Placida Harbor to Marco Island, Florida Sea Grant FLSGP- M-02-003, Brown, T,R. and H,O, Hillestad, 1998, Clam Bay Restoration and Management Plan, pp, 216, Collier County, 1997, Clam Bay Natural Resources Protection Area, Report, 85 pp, Conservancy of Southwest FIOlida, 1997, Clam Bay Restoration and Management Plan: April 9, 1997, Position Statement.

, Statements Fom Introduction page I paragraphs I and 4: Paragraph 1: "Clam Bo)' and Moorings Ba)' are important naturalfeatures in Collier County", Paragraph 4 sentence 3: "Ill COllzrast, lJ/uch (~lthe shoreline q!,Afool'ings Bay lvas s;gll?flc([nl~V altered through dredge and fill oetiFit.l', such that natural shoreline features in the northem portions o{Moorings Bo)' were mostly a0sent hy the 1950s" The statement in paragraph I contradicts the statement in Paragraph 2 as the entire Moorings Bay today is unnatural. Moorings Bay is not a natural feature, It used to be natural in the 50s' when the mangrove forest extended from Moorings through Vanderbilt. Additionally, although Clam Bay is unarguably the most natural system of mangroves remaining in the urban Naples landscape (discounting Rookery Bay) it is not entirely natural either given the encroaching development and isolated state today, Agenda Item No.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 104 of 133 , ~,.- Source: USGS 1953, Outer (Lower) Clam Bay and Moorings 1953: Undeveloped Natural State The PBS&J report, intended or not, gives the reader the impression that Moorings Bay is being compared to Clam Bay and Clam Bay is coming off as being perceived as more impaired, These 2 systems should not be compared for estuarine health as Moorings Bay is no longer an estuary, Dr, Bauer from the City stated as much at the last meeting, Collier County Pollution Control, Save the Bays, the Conservancy and the City have for decades worked to improve the conditions within Moorings Bay given that this is a hardened structural man-made system, For years all have been pushing for rip-rap when seawalls fail and need to be replaced, fertilizer ordinances, stormwater control, etc and under Dr. Bauer's guidance some strides have been made in these areas to help improve the conditions of this man-made canal system, The only connection that Moorings Bay and Clan1 Bay have at this point is the culvert, Question: In the introduction please define what this report considers the boundaries of the "Clam Bay Watershed" throughout this report to avoid confusion, Statement from Page 4 last paragraph: "Instead, the cone/usion was reached that die-ojf was likely dlle to excessil'efi-eslnniter inpllt to the svstem ./i-om the adjacent developed uplallds alld an inadeqllate di,'peniOlI of the increased freslnl'ater inpnt dill' to severelv constricted tidal dlUnnels in the mangruve'/()rCi';t.

While this statement is true it is important to also remember that impoundment of excessive freshwater from unusually high rainfall amounts in 1992 and 1995 was the straw that tipped the Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 105 of 133 scales in the northwest corner of the Clam Bay mangrove system and that by all indications was stressed to begin with most likely due to development on the borders of this forest. A lot of emphasis is being placed on improving flushing within the Clam Bay system as a solution to problems that have developed within the mangroves in the past. While flushing is essential to mangrove systems and usually occurs naturally, any excessive anthropogenic freshwater inflows into Clam Bay should be dealt with at the source instead of flushing the excessive freshwater and anthropogenic introduced pollutants to the Gulf, This in itself should be perceived as a problem as in effect we are just contributing to polluting the Gulf and although the levels are probably small in comparison to other inputs it is time we start to address the Gulf instead of treating it like a septic tank throughout the Gulf States, Additionally, improving the flushing of Clam Bay seems to be perceived as some sort of cureall, which is not accurate, Too much flushing is just as much a problem as too little in an estuary, as the habitats and species that use these environments are adapted to shallow, low energy environments, Also, given that estuaries are shallow and the land features typically are at low elevation, very little rise in water levels is needed to flood the mangroves for tidal flushing as long as no impediments that impound the water exist. Additionally, the usual way to improve flushing is through dredging which can alter the detritus- based system of a mangrove estuary by stirring up and/or removing sediment and disrupting the nutrient sources necessary to the organisms that rely on detritus for food and cover, and can also interfere with the natural decomposition process by bacteria and other organisms, Therefore, dredging to improve flushing should be tempered and used sparingly in order to keep the balance of the system in check, Statemelltji-om Page 5 ],2: "/n re,'pO/lSe to eOlleems relaled 10 Ihe isslles of water qualily alld r;irelllatioll ill the Clam Bav and lv/oorillgs Bay .ITstellls, Collier Count)' reqllested PBS&J prepare a proposal to cOllduct a cirC1llatiolllllld 11'llter qualilv stlldv to de/ermine thefhl/owillg: .

I have a great deal of concern and would not be able to trust any modeling done with the readings that were collected over such a short time span; that were fraught with problems, readings that appeared to be erroneous at Clam Pass (which is one of the focal points hydrologically) and the time frame of only using a "spring tide" where only the extremes and not the norms are used, Most hydrologic data sets today that arc used in conjunction with biological components (which is necessary to develop any sort of management plan that has validity) in estuaries typically rely on a time series water level and velocity for a month covering neap and spring tides, For example, Van Santen, et. al. , 2007 collected time series water level, velocity and sediment accumulation for a month covering neap and spring tides in order to ensure that a complete hydrographic picture could be inferred, Ji, et. aI., 2001 measured data for tidal calibration that included tidal elevation, salinity, temperature, current velocity at various locations throughout the estuary for 31 days in order to ensure accuracy, Two independent data sets are required for calibration and subsequent validation of a hydrodynamic model. The observation times should be divided into two separate components I month for calibration and I month for validation is sufficient and model sensitivity studies are essential (Huang, 2007), Various year's wOlth of this kind of data is available from other sources that could be vetted to complete a better hydrologic picture for use in modeling this estuary, Granted that past hydrologic investigations over the years had different goals, their data is more robust and more suited to model calibration and verification, which at the moment would make these past modeling efforts more useful than an updated more sophisticated model whose calibration and validation is suspect. "Handling model complexity and reliability is a key area of research today" (Raick, et., aI., 2006), Currently in marine ecosystem modeling the idea is to include an ecological component in conjunction with a general circulation model. What ever strategy is undertaken the key is assessment, as the biology must be linked to the hydrology and physical environment characteristics (Raick, et., al. 2006), Regarding Statementfi-om the executive summary: "In order to onaly::e potential changes to the .\y.r;,tem to improl'c circulation and dis'Soh'cd (uygen (DO) ,vi/hill the ClalJ/ Ba)' S]'.I/elll, a hydmd1'l1illllic lJ/odel will need /0 he dCl'eloped to unders/alld the illterac/ions he/ween Clam Bar (UPPCl'.

Given the unexpected results alluded to by the author it is prudent to repeat this experiment to confirm whether the results are an anomaly, Additionally, the time lag could and probably does change during the wet and dry seasons, StatementFom Hydrographic Data Analysis 7,3 Current Velocities and Flow Rates page 62: It is important to note that the field data was collected during spring tides, 1-1'here the tidal range i.-.j larger than normal (higher highs, Im,vcr IOv,}....:J. Al.s'o, there were several rah~f(dl events during the study period, which affiy't water levels in Clam Ba\' and Moorings Bay due to urban drainage, Evidence of this rainfiill can be seen in the water level graphs (Figures 7,2 and 7,3) of [Jpper and 111ner Clam Ba.v, 1vl1ere it appear:')' the mean 1vater /cl'el rise.s' during the week as s'tornHvater enters the .\ystem. What were the extent of the rainfall events and when did the events occur in comparison to when the inflows show up? The choice of using higher and lower than normal tides can skew the data and should cover an entire spectrum of tides to accurately come up with net values although the time when the readings occurred does give some insight (0 extreme conditions as stated in the reports conclusion (page 74), It is importunt to note thut theflow calculations are based on the conditiollS during the studv pcriod and the resultaut trends may on(v be applicuble to the study period. Given the lack of confidence in the data set (data gaps), any results and conclusions about the hydrology would also be suspect and thus any comments on actual values relating to tidal cycles and currents reported in this report would be moot. In regard to the Water Quality Component of the PBS&J report: This is part of the report is geared at a review of past data and basically reinforced the basic information that was already apparent such as: · There were erroneous values in the data set from Collier County, · The ends of the Clam Bay system appeared to have more instances lower dissolved oxygen levels and/or nutrient levels which is typical of any system that has deadends - the farther the distance from the pass",," Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 109 of 133 I would have liked to see statistics broken out by season as this is an important driver in water quality and could explain some of the readings that are shown in the graphs, For example, did the instances of low dissolved oxygen occur primarily during the summer months and how does the dissolved oxygen correlate to water temperature values? What were the depths at the various stations in comparison to levels that were reported - is the higher nutrient levels and lower dissolved oxygen recorded in concert with very shallow depths and could sediment resuspension possibly interfered during sampling? Were nutrients and chlorophyll levels higher during the 2005-2007? If so, resuspension of nutrients caused by hurricanes could result in algal blooms as seen in southern estuaries in Florida in 2005, Chlorophyll a levels increased with algal blooms and the majority ofregions that Boyer, et. aI., 2009 assessed in 2006, CHLA was higher than the median at their sites, but did not appear to indicate negative trends in southern estuaries, Mangrove interfaces with the Gulf had higher chlorophyll a levels in 2006 than in 2005, likely the result of the hurricanes that hit south Florida in 2005 and likely does not indicate long-term trends (Boyer, et. al. 2009).. Were low dissolved oxygen levels and/or higher nutrient levels persistent over time or just isolated incidents? Were low dissolved oxygen levels primarily between 3 - 4 mg/I or lower and if so how long did the condition last? Any relationship to precipitation events? Were any tables generated that detailed the data and statistics that could clear up some of these questions? Discounting obvious outliers - are dissolved oxygen or nutrient values that were lower/higher than the ambient levels correlated to weather events such as storm events or episodic algal blooms that appear in the Gulf'? (see next paragraphs for the context of this question), The Gulf coast of Florida receives discharges from a lot of rivers in the northern and central parts of the west coast. Runoff from these rivers affects the chemistry and biology of estuaries with maximum discharges tending to occur in the spring and fall. The southern movement of the waters in the Gulf could affect the southern parts of SWFL waters, An episodic event during the spring occurred when elevated pigment concentrations persisted of 1-6 weeks extending 250 km along the Florida shelf. Plume formation was associated with discharge from local rivers in NW Florida; seasonal changes in height between the shelf and the Gulf of Mexico waters; Loop current circulation and upwellings in the Gulf of Mexico off De Soto; and discharge from the Mississippi and Mobile rivers, On the FI01ida Shelf in the Gulf of Mexico toxic dinoflagellates have episodic blooms that are suspected of adding to the total nutrient production, These blooms tend to occur in the summer or fall but can occur at any time, The semi-regular occurrences of this bloom indicates that energy levels to higher tropic levels could be seasonal. In May of 1992 a particularly high chlorophyll a bloom occurred (Gilbes, et.al. 1996), Do the high chlorophyll a levels that were found in Clam Bay con"espond to the semi regular events in the Gulf shelf particularly in 1992? The impact that nutrients from the Gulf on local estuaries is poorly understood but should be considered as possible explanation of local nutrient and chlorophyll spikes during episodic blooms (Gilbes, et. al. 1996), In general, from a cursory inspection of the figures presented in the report it is no surprise that the upper regions of the Clam Bay system are higher in nutrients given that the system has been cut off from its natural connections to the north, This is found in both manmade canal systems including Moorings Bay and natural systems that lack river inflows, Additionally, when Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 110 of 133 analyzing the data efforts should be made to explain possible elevated levels such as those discussed above if applicable, Regarding section 3,2 Dissolved Oxygen page 14 in the report: "E1,'tremely e1e1'ated concelltrations of DO were observed between August 20()] and August 2002; these data must have been reported illaecurately, alld cannot be representative of the ambiell/ DO readillgs at that time, To accommodate this data problem, Figure 3,5 was created, where the yaxis was trullcated at a more realistic maximum DO level of10 mg/l", It would be more appropriate to omit the erroneous data from the set rather that trying to visualize it in truncated form, Suggest including a table of the outliers and stating that these values were not included in analysis of the data set as the values reported were suspect and to include them when making analysis could skew the data set. It is not clear whether or not these suspect values that the authors "truncated" to "10 mg/l" were used in any of the statistics presented in Figure 3,6, If they were they should be removed as given the obvious erroneous level of those values it is not appropriate to include in the statistics and could lead to erroneous conclusion given that there is no way to arbitrarily assign a value to these particular values with any degree of certainty, Regarding section 3,2 Chlorophyll page 17 in the report: "1so/uted elevated cOllccntratiollS of chlorophyll a h",'c been observed at the W-n and W-1 sites, however, the conco/tration observcd on Septcmber 1996 at the W-6 site (299 J1.g/L) is unlike~v in the marine waters, and so the data are displayed (Figure 3,8) II'ith a truncated y-axis ", Again, as with the dissolved oxygen, it would be more appropriate to omit the erroneous chlorophyll a data from the set rather that trying to visualize it in truncated form, Suggest including a table of the outliers and stating that these values were not included in analysis of the data set as the values reported were suspect and to include them when making analysis could skew the data set. It is not clear whether or not these suspect values that the authors "truncated" to 50? mg/l" were used in any of the statistics presented in Figure 3,9, If they were they should be removed as given the obvious erroneous level of those values it is not appropriate to include in the statistics and could lead to erroneous conclusion given that there is no way to arbitrarily assign a value to these particular values, Regarding on Page 20 on the report: While certain facts presented in the PBS&J's report regarding TMDL's are correct, the interpretation of what actually triggers a TMDL does not appear to be in accordance with FDEP's guidelines. "Site W-7 exceeded an anllual average Chi-a concentration (if 11 J1.g/L during both 2005 and 2007, Based upon existing criteria ji-OI/1 FDEP, Clam Bay would likely be declared verified impaired due to elevated chlorophyll a cOllcentratiollS" Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 111 of 133 According to FDEP's current Impaired Waters Rule 10% of the samples have to exceed annual averages of II ug/l for the Water Body, Given the bar chart values from the Figure 3,9 in the report - it does not appear that 10% of the annual averages for chlorophyll a are impaired as all of the sites would be looked at together. As on the chart only W -7 has instances were the annual average is above I I ug/I and the rest of the stations appear to be within FDEP's criteria it is unlikely that Clam Bay (WBID) by itself would be classified as verified impaired, Also there are a minimum number of samples needed to put a water body on the Verified list (with at least a 90% confidence), Within the data set (discounting any suspect samples) - How many total samples were there? - And how many were impaired? Were confidence intervals generated for the data? Regarding the Nutrient Analysis: When trying to understand and analyze nutrient cycling dynamics it is important to take into account that estuarine wetlands act as a f1lter as they tend to sequester or recycle nutrients, It is important to remember that mangrove systems are a sink for nutrients and bind large amounts of N and P for production, Ignoring the uptake and release of nutrients, particularly from minerals that occur naturally in mangrove swamps, can cause errors in determining the nutrient balance necessary to sustain the estuary (Wosten, ct. aI., 2(03), Calculations based entirely on hydrology and water quality which vary considerably in time and space without considering the natural biological and nutrient cycling within the estuary is questionable, While these elements are important relying on them alone for management of the estuary could lead to erroneous conclusions about the estuary dynamics (Wosten, et. aI., 2(03), The dynamics of an estuary have to be taken into account when evaluating an estuary like Clam Bay versus evaluating a man- made canal system like Moorings, For example: Shallow water estuaries (like Clam Bay) should . accumulate substantial amounts of organic matter that becomes incorporated into the benthos where it degrades and is modified by microbes, Microbial communities employ complex anaerobic and aerobic transformations that result in the amount of organic and inorganic nutrients within and above the sediment. Tide and wind indirectly influence microbial communities and thus nutrient concentrations within the sediment through resuspension activity that arise from these forces (Seymour, et. aI., 2(07), Naturally nutrients could be higher in Clam Bay due to natural interactions, whereas in Moorings Bay there is a lack of natural nutrient cycling due to the lack of detritus buildup which is necessary to an estuary, "Resource management strategies must take into account system-specific factors" (Tomasko, et. aI., 2005), Regarding - Sediment and Biological Health Characteristics The survey conducted by PBS&J only provides a cursory look at the sediment and any attempt at using this qualitative data to describing redox conditions and benthic communities is fraught with assumptions that could lead to erroneous conclusions, As the visibility in Clam Bay is generally low, any characterizations derived from the survey are anecdotal at best since very little of the surrounding habitats would be visible to the observer, Biological assessments have to encompass the whole spectrum of the food web and not just a visual interpretation of a few of the lower level organisms mentioned in this study, without looking at the community from the top down also, Due to the scope of this study there was no possibility of characterizing the health of Agenda Item No.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 112 of 133 the benthic community with any degree of certainty with the methods that this survey employed, as typically indices are used to describe benthic populations, Regarding Sediments and Redox in Mangrove Estuaries Mangrove soils have been described as highly anaerobic, sulphidic, reduced inundated muds, whose physicochemical properties vary with elevation and forest type (Alongi and Sasekumar, 1992), The most significant effect of inundation is depletion of soil oxygen, Biological and chemical reactions are largely controlled by oxidation-reduction processes, which are necessary to cycle nutrients within the air, water, and soil. Transformations of nitrogen, sulfur, iron, manganese and carbon occur under anaerobic conditions, where nitrate (N 03 "), manganese oxide (Mn02), iron hydroxides (Fe(OHh), sulfate (S04"2), and carbon dioxide (C02), in this order, act as electron acceptors in the absence of oxygen (Vespraskas and Faulkner, 200 I), Redox potential, expressed and measured as Eh, is a useful indicator of what types of reduced elements one can expect to find in soil solution It is an electrical measurement that shows the tendency of a soil solution to transfer electrons to or from a reference electrode, From this measurement, estimates can be made to as to whether the soil is aerobic or anaerobic, and whether or not chemical compounds including iron oxides or nitrate have been chemically reduced or are present in their oxidized forms.. Interactions between soil redox potential and availability of essential nutrients are extremely complex (Clough, 1992) and are influenced by a variety of factors including surface water and groundwater inflows, oxygen availability, plankton productivity, pH, and moisture content (Alongi, et. aI., 1992), Color is an obvious cue to soil processes as the color of soil is often determined by the various compounds within it, mineral grains, biological activity, and natural pigments like iron and other oxides, Seasonal variations in precipitation and evapotranspiration rates lead to water table fluctuations causing alternating reduction and oxidation with respect to iron oxides, Mobilization of ferrous iron during periods of reduction can cause segregation in soil zones, However sometimes in areas of high water tables these conditions don't develop leading to anomalous conclusions about color inferences about redox (Rabenhorst and Parikh, 2000), At best in mangrove estuaries color can give a rough idea of the types of minerals that could be present in the substrate, but inference to redox potential of these soils is not recommended, Redox potential should be measured and even then it describes what oxygen-reduction reactions are likely to be occurring in the sediment in that localized area as redox potentials tend to fluctuate, For example, the brown to green color variation in marine sediments marks the depth where nitrate has been reduced to Fe3+ to FE 2+, The color change can be reversed due to the oxidation properties of iron, The depth to the brown - green transition provides a rapid way to estimate redox conditions in sediments however this depth transition cannot be related to productivity (Rabenhorst and Parikh, 2000), Thus the Statement Fom the executive summwy point 6: "As a result, A100rillgs Bay, althollgh suhjCCI 10 cxtensivc IIrhall slorl11walcr rUllo(f, appears 10 have waleI' ecology cOlldilions helieI' Ihall Ihose(imnd ill Clal11 Bay: Ihis is supported by Ihe resulls of Ihe Redox layer illvesligalion" should be suspect. Although most mangrove sediments are characterized by negative redox potentials and anoxic conditions that can persist to the surface, some of the surficial sediments near the landward margins are aerobic in nature, possibly due to burrowing fauna, Mangrove sediments near the surface often have highly variable redox, which Agenda Item No.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 113 of 133 result in various colors in the soil and rapid changes in redox potential (Eh) over small distances (Clark, et. aI., 1998), Regarding Statements made in the executive summmy #2 and #3: "Afine-gruillcd sedimenllava wasfiilll1d in llIosllocalions ofDlllcr Clalll Bav, 77!is sediment depth was approximalelv 5(cel inlhe area o(lhe Seagall' callais, was not prel'l1lent in AJoorings Bav, and varied ill deplh in Outer, lillieI' alld Upper Cll1m Bl1vs', "It is nO! known 111 this tillle if"thefine-grained sedilllem lava is nalllra!!v occurring, or occurring as a rc..ult (~rman-made changes to file Clam Boy system.

Differellces in the ecologicalfimctioning between Clam Bay and Moorillgs Bay could be due to differences ill tidal circulation alld residence time ". The relationship between the ecological function and sediment properties in inter-tidal mangrove forests is poorly understood due to the complex interactions between the abiotic and biotic elements (Chapman and Tolhurst, 2004), , Soft sediments are complex, having different physical properties, different degrees of microbes, fauna and trace metals that vary spatially and temporally (Chapman and Tolhurst, 2007), Studies performed by Chapman and Tolhurst (2004) revealed that variation in the benthos did not correlate to bio-dependant properties of the sediment at any scale nor the properties of the sediment relate to any habitat. Their data indicated that properties of the sediment were not related to the properties and processes that drive the benthos, since there was a very large variation in benthos within small sites, These results emphasize the necessity of sampling at a hierarchy of scales to make any definitive statements concerning the benthos as it relates to sediment (Chapman and Tolhurst, 2004), Biogeomical sediment properties can change depending upon the biota directly through consumption and indirectly by excretion, Benthos can change their local distribution patterns as they move to find food, There is no neat correlation between grain size, sediment color and benthic diversity as patchy distributions are common in soft sediments, Since mangrove forests live in complex environments that have different habitats and substrates with diverse macrobenthic fauna living on the sediment in different abundances it is necessary to examine relationships between the sediment and benthic macrofauna at multiple scales as direct correlations are often inadequate as benthos has differed among the same habitats in multiple mangrove estuaries and even among replicates within the same habitat (Chapman and Tolhurst, 2007), Thus while some sediment properties may be important in determining the structure of macrofauna they are not consistent. Alternatively some organisms may have similar effects upon sediments in different places while the same species may affect the sediment differently from place to place, One problem with many of the studies that compare sediments and benthos is that there is little replication and the need to carry out experiments at multiple scales across multiple habitats, without replication there is a strong possibility that can lead to erroneous conclusions (Chapman and Tolhurst, 2007), The sil,,'uificance of trophic interactions and the mangrove sediments should not be underestimated or ignored in understanding ecosystem health, The unexpected diversity in patterns of resource use in mangrove systems (as described by Bouillon, et.al. 2008) emphasizes the complex and highly dynamic environment of these estuaries which complicates interpretation of trophic interactions necessary to promote faunal health (Bouillon, et., aI., 2008), Thus the lack of apparent resources in Moorings Bay might not support a diverse Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 115 of 133 benthic community regardless of the sediment characteristics, Macro and micro benthic organisms vary in scales of em to km and on temporal scales of minutes to years due to the complex interactions between many biological and physical variables such as tides, erosion, deposition, shore height, nutrients, grazing, settlement, migration and episodic events like storms and human impacts, Patterns of variation in benthos and the relationship to the sediment begs the question of does the sediment dictate the biota or does the biota dictate the sediment as the biota can alter sediment porosity and grain size, organic content etc, (Chapman and Tolhurst, 2004), Small scale variation in spatial patterns is not unusual in intertidal environments, Some studies show little variation in the benthos among different habitat relative to the smaller scale variation within habitats, Sediments themselves also can strongly exhibit variations in their properties within sites and within habitats of sites thus compounding the problems of identifying simple relationships and the ability to make judgments on the types of benthos associated with a particular sediment type (Chapman and Tolhurst, 2004), Mangrove areas in paIiicular may differ significantly in their benthic community compositions and interactions, Seagrass areas tend to have higher numbers than mangroves which tend to have lower numbers - although some estuaries have a high degree of macro-invertebrate diversity across habitat. Some estuaries show seasonal variation in faunal assemblages, Higher diversity of benthic habitats were found in Rookery Bay's mangroves than in the adjacent seagrass beds and unvegetated areas, although other areas in Florida this was reversed (Alfaro" 2005), This begs the question of localized site specific differences and the difficulty in making assumptions about the benthic community based on sediment characteristics and the ephemeral nature of the habitat.

Again item 4 raises the question of water quality collection by PBSD,Again the wording concerns me vs, just stating the need for additional data collection, Item 5 They state that Clam Bay is Verified Impaired for water quality, Do we really have enough data to make that statement in an executive summary? Item 7 is comparing apples and oranges, but if you read the beginning you get an impression that Moorings Bay is better maintained! Item I on page iii needs to underline the word sufficient. Item 3 should add" Due to it limited scope that was specified at the time," -3.2 used very appropriate wording -I agree with paragraph 2 on page 34 -Paragraph 3 Page 38, I agree with those words, New technology will always improve findings and make prior knowledge seem primitive, -Para 3 and 4 Page 39 reasonable words that do not find their way into the executive summary -Para I page 4 I Well stated and bettcr sounding vs, Executive summary Bottom line: new gauging technology, a more complete study and a better understanding of dat in a grassy estuary requires the need for further testing and comparing the data to other estuaries with similar attributes, Clam bay and Mooring are very different in make up and are not appropriate for comparison, Agenda Item No.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 119 of 133 Also what consultant worth their salt would trash another consultants work and recommend further work! My objective is to let data identify the problems vs, community emotions, PBS&J Report Remarks on Executive Summary and Detail Report By Linda Roth earlier 10/28/09 Introduction: The Clam Bay System Data Collection & Analysis Report dated October, 2009 by PBS&J can be easily misinterpreted at first glance, However, if one spends enough time exan1ining it, one will uncover the following points, The Executive Summary has a number of assertions and omissions that create false impressions of information reported in the Detail Analysis, Furthermore, the Detail Analysis makes a number of statements that are implied as facts, but are just conjectures based on little or no evidence, Examples are listed below, together with a number of questions about the report itself, List of Comments: I, The monitoring equipments used to estimate flow rates and volume exchange were vandalized at two critical locations (one at South Seagate Dr" and the other at Harbour Dr. near Doctor's Pass), Additionally, the data collected at Clam Pass was deemed unreliable; it was not used, and substituted with data collected at a location in the Gulf (Gulfside Clam Pass, p, 47), At these locations, 4 days of data were collected instead of 8 days, in August. Even though this equipment for collecting data for water level and flow capacity was broken or deemed unreliable, and only 4 days of data could be used, this data was utilized to estimate flow rates and volume exchange between Clam Bay and Moorings Bay, and to reach the conclusion that "the net flow is overwhelmingly southerly into Moorings Bay, and Moorings Bay is more affected by conditions in Clam Bay than vice versa" (pp, 44, 45, 62, 76, 77), This scarcity of data is not stated in the Summary, 2, Even if the data collected is assumed accurate, it only applies to conditions present during these 4 days, On page 62, it states "It is important to note that the tide data was collected during "spring tides" where the tidal range is larger than normal (higher highs, lower lows), Also there were several rainfall events during the study period which affect water levels"," It seems that wind directions would also have a significant effect. This is not stated in the Summary, The report states, "During incoming tides, the south side has a higher water level than the north side, up to 0,25 ft in difference, and leading in phase by about 30 minutes, On the outgoing tide, the south side leads the north by 1.5 hours, with a water level difference of up to 1.5 ft, The Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 120 of 133 result is water flows back and forth between the two bodies, with the majority of flow southward from Clam Bay into Moorings Bay", This is just an intelpretation of what happened during these 4 days of data collection, This is not applicable to any other time, (p, 61) 3, The important information, on page 33, that Impaired Water Rules (IWR) guidance on Dissolved Oxygen (DO), and chlorophyll G can be locally inappropriate, particularly in subtropical systems, is not stated in the Executive Summary, 4, There is a discrepancy between actual water quality and "anticipated" water quality, The low level of DO is not necessarily indicative of nutrient-enriched water body, This is stated in the Detail report, but not in the Summary, (p, 33) 5, In regards to Chlorophyll G, the report on page 33 asserts that only Upper Clam Bay would be declared impaired, (This may not be the case if the more recent data of 200S cited in the references were used instead of leaning on old data, See pages IS-20, The ones in 200S were all below the median level for Florida estuaries,) 6, The report does not state that the removal in 1997 of the one way flap gates which directed the water flow from Moorings Bay to Clam Bay was due to concerns that the causation of the problems in Clam Bay being largely the result of 27" of additional water which resulted in the drowning of the mangroves, (pp, iv in the Summary & p, 3 in the Report) (City Council Workshop, Aug, 3, 1995) 7, The report does not show the City of Naples having 4 water quality monitoring locations immediately south of Clam Bay as stated in the first sentence on page 7, It shows 4 monitoring stations widely spread throughout Moorings Bay with one station south of Doctors Pass, (p,ll) S, On Pages 40 and 41, doubt is cast about the Tackney & Associates' report as being "theoretical assertions", Then, the PBS&J report proceeds to make its own theoretical assertions about "effective flushing", "water exchange" and "inlet stability", 9, Interestingly, water color is tested, but not fecal coliform which is required by the Florida's TMDL program, (p, 12) Why? There is considerable data on Moorings Bay's water quality collected by "Save the Bay", and other agencies, Why is it not presented in the report? 10, The Water Quality Review and Analysis of 5 stations in Clam Bay were presented. There was none presented for Venetian and Moorings Bay; yet conditions in all 3 Bays are the subject of speculation, (pp, 14-25) 11, The report states there is no seagrass in Moorings Bay, and lots of macroalgae, Are these not indicators of poor water quality from increased nutrients? (p, 32) 12, In Outer Clam Bay, Dr, Tomasko of PBS&J in 2007 reported that there were numerous seagrass beds, This report found only one seagrass bed, and the explanation for this is the Agenda Item No.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 121 of 133 ephemeral nature of this species, Could they have been destroyed by motorboat and jet ski traffic? If not, the seagrass should grow back in the near future, (P,29) 13, Adequate DO in sediments cannot be interpreted that Moorings Bay has a more diverse benthic community, Is there not more DO in sediments just offshore? Some of these areas have very limited benthic communities, (p, 29) 14, Clam Bay Estuary is a wetland comprised of"mudtlats" at low tides and during dry periods, Sediment made of mud naturally holds less DO than more porous sediments such as sand, But these mudtlats are teeming with micro-organisms and invertebrates that support juvenile fish, birds and other wildlife, 15, The criteria for the locations of an ambient monitoring program are not described, But the report declares that the site locations chosen by PBSD & the Conservancy were inappropriate, (p, 40), 16, The report omits the fact that the Seagate canals & Moorings Bay are no longer a natural estuary, Their shorelines are comprised of man-made canals with cement walls embedded with stonnwater run-off drainage pipes emptying into Outer Clam Bay and Moorings Bay, Moorings Bay is not an estuarine habitat. 17, Numerous scientists (Drs, Bauer & Tomasko and others) have stated that the nutrient loading in Clam Bay very likely comes from Moorings Bay and Seagate, All the lawn drainage pipes emptying directly into the water of Outer Clrnn Bay & Moorings Bay are clear indications of this likelihood, (City Council meetings, May & Sept 2008) (FDER a,k,a, FDEP ] 981 report) (Tomasko Seagrass Report, 2007) 18, The water circulation and tlushing in Moorings Bay has basically remained the same since the removal of the one way tlap gates at the Seagate culverts in 1997, The amount of nutrient loading into Moorings Bay has not decreased, and may have increased due to more housing, boats and docks since] 997, All available data shows that Moorings Bay's water is distressed, These conditions have not changed significantly, Yet, based on this report, we are to believe that the water quality has miraculously become better, Conclusion: As can be seen from the many examples cited above, this report is inconclusive at best. Hence, its assertions, conclusions and recommendations cannot be taken seriously, At worse, it is incompetent and fraudulent; no knowledgeable person should condone or validate it. The report's Conclusion that "",the net tlow is overwhelmingly southerly into Moorings Bay, Moorings Bay is more affected by conditions in Clam Bay than vice versa" is an unsubstantiated assertion, Broken equipments, substitution of data at one location for another, and data collected over a short four-day period during special weather conditions cannot be used to extrapolate what took place or will take place between the two water bodies, Previous scientific studies Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 122 of 133 (with the exception of the 1977 USEPA analysis mentioned by PBS&J), and II years of anecdotal and empirical evidence indicate that the exchange of water in the culverts under Seagate Drive goes back and forth depending on the tides, cWTents, water levels, weather conditions, seasons, etc, In other words, the direction of water flow is inconsistent and controlled by Mother Nature, Unnecessary human interference is dangerous and extremely expensive, The Clam Bay estuary, the Natural Resource Protection Area from Vanderbilt Beach Road to Seagate Drive, is a complex and sensitive ecosystem, This coastal wetland is just like the mangroves, it needs wet and dry periods, When it is continuously inundated with water, unpredictable bad things will happen (e,g" mangrove die-offs), Who will be responsible, and how much more of taxpayers' money will be spent on restoration? Billions of tax dollars are needed to restore the "Field of Grass" in the Everglades because of human misconception, The report ends by calling for a hydrodynamic model in order to understand and improve circulation and dissolved oxygen (DO) within the Clam Bay system, According to this report, the DO in Moorings Bay is good, and that the low level of DO throughout the Clam Bay system inferred based 'on Redox depths (dissolved oxygen in sediment), is not necessarily indicative of a nutrient-enriched body (p, 33), Then why is the County wasting our tax dollars, and for whom? Furthermore, a scientific model is something one produces on a computer by in-putting certain parameters, It is not representational of what will happen in reality, It is what one thinks or hopes might happen, and can be influenced by preset agendas, Finally, in the field of environmental science, there are no definitive approaches, Whether an approach works or not can only be verified by anecdotal and empirical evidence over a long period of time, One can safely say that the approaches used by PBSD, H&M, and the Conservancy have been well tested, The 50 acres of dying mangroves are recovering nicely, The Clam Bay Estuary (mangrove forests, bays and wildlife) is healthy and thriving, It would even be healthier when the Seagate and Moorings communities stop emptying their stormwater run-off into the bays, Our tax dollars and energy should be spent on helping these communities implement Best Management Practices (BMP), as well as oyster, clam, and mangrove restoration programs, instead of trying some costly unproven methods of disturbing the balance of the fragile Clam Pass/Clam Bay ecosystem, Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 123 of 133 PBSJ 5300 West Cypress Street Suite 200 Tampa, Florida 33607 Phone: (800) 477-7275 November 17, 2009 Response to Comments RE: Clam Bay System Data Collection & Analysis Report (October 2009) To: Gary McAlpin - Collier County Clam Bay Advisory Committee From: Jeffrey R. Tabar, PE Todd J, DeMunda, EI There are several recurring themes that highlight the main concerns brou9ht forth regarding the Clam Bay System Data Collection & Analysis Report, submitted by PBS&J to Collier County in October 2009, This document is intended to address the issues related to the data collection and analysis effort. 1, The duration of the data collection was insufficient to either provide insight into the dominant circulation patterns in Clam Bay and Moorings Bay or be useful for calibration of any future hydrodynamic model, The field data collection program was designed to capture an extensive amount of data over a period of time to document circulation patterns through the entire system. Concurrent water level and flow velocity data was collected for 8 days in August 2009 at 13 locations, encompassing the area between the Gulf of Mexico, Upper Clam Bay and Doctor's Pass. Several instruments were paired with standalone tide gauges for redundancy in case of malfunctions or other issues, for a total of 16 instruments deployed, Therefore, a consistent 8 day record of water level exists for the entire system. While an 8 day period may be considered short-term, the data is reflective of the long-term trends in the system and would be sufficient for calibration of future hydrodynamic modeling efforts. There have been other field studies in the past regarding Clam Bay and Moorings Bay (USEPA, 1975, 1977; FDER, 1981; Tackney, 1996; Humiston & Moore, 2003) that collected data; however, none of these studies utilized the span and number of instruments used in the PBS&J effort. Ideally, it is preferred to have these instruments in place over a long time period, but budget and time constraints force a tradeoff between the number of instruments deployed and analyzed versus the length of time of the deployment. In this study, it was determined that a comprehensive instrument deployment for a shorter period of time was the best use of the available resources while still providing a sufficient view of the system dynamics; the high resolution of the data shows important elements of circulation that would have been missed with a lesser number of deployed instruments, regardless of any gain in deployment duration, 2, Data was collected during a period of above-average tidal range, rendering any conclusions or insight regarding circulation useless for any other period of time, Tides in the eastern Gulf of Mexico are mixed semidiurnal, with 2 highs and 2 lows of varying magnitude per day, During the August 2009 data collection effort, the maximum tidal range was 4.0 It, compared to the long-term average of 2.0 It (the difference between MHW and MLW at Naples). The highest observed Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 124 of 133 water level at Doctor's Pass was 2.0 ft NAVD88, while MHW at Naples is 0,3 It NAVD88, The lowest water level at Doctor's Pass was -2,3 ft NAVD88, while MLW at Naples is -1,7 It NAVD88. This time period, while exhibiting a more pronounced tide range than 'normal', was chosen for several reasons. In order to acquire a complete perspective on the system at a single time period, the data collection effort was performed in conjunction with a comprehensive bathymetry survey of Clam Bay and Moorings Bay, Higher water levels were necessary in order to move the survey vessel and equipment into the upper reaches of Clam Bay, as well as the shallow regions throughout the system, Further, the time period of the collection effort was during a segment of the mixed tide cycle that contained high and low tides varying significantly in magnitude; see Figure 7.14 on page 60 of the report, which shows the predicted and measured water level in the Gulf at Doctor's Pass, High tides ranged in elevation from 0.5 It to 2.1 It NAVD88, while low tides ranged from -2.4 It to -0,1 It NAVD88. Successive high and low tides varied by differences from 0,7 It to 4.0 It, Therefore, during the 8 days of concurrent data, the tidal range varied to such an extent that tides greater than, equal to, and lesser than the long- term average were observed. For an example of how different tidal ranges affect the system dynamics, see Figure 7.21 on page 69 of the report, which illustrates the current velocity magnitudes immediately south of Sea gate Dr. The peak southerly velocity of 2.5 ft/s at approximately 6:00pm on August 18 corresponds to an outgoing tide with a range of 4.0 It (see Figure 7.14 on page 60 of the report), The next southerly peak, at around 6:00am on August 19, corresponds to an outgoing tide with a range of 1,5 ft. At Seagate Dr, it is apparent that the southerly velocity peaks correspond to outgoing tides, and the magnitude of, the velocity is proportional to the magnitude of the corresponding tidal change. On incoming tides, velocity at Seagate Dr is northward, but its magnitude does not appear to correlate with the magnitude of the tidal change. In conclusion, a variety of tidal ranges, greater than, equal to, and lesser than the long-term average, were observed within the 8 day study period, Further, while the magnitude of the system dynamics may be scaled to the magnitude of the tidal range, the overall patterns and trends remain the same, Barring an extreme event such as a storm surge, there is no compelling reason to expect normal fluctuations in tidal range over the lunar cycle to drastically alter circulation trends within the system, 3, Equipment malfunctions and vandalism resulted in several gaps in the data, rendering the entire data set suspect and of little value, Concurrent data was collected for a period of 8 days, and as mentioned in Item 1, several instruments were outfitted with redundant tide gauges in case of issues like those experienced. During the 8 day period, the batteries powering the South Seagate Dr and Harbour Dr ADCPs were stolen and the South Seagate Dr instrument cable was destroyed, At South Seagate Dr, this vandalism resulted in the need for removal and redeployment of the instrument and a loss of velocity data for 3.5 days, from August 15 to noon on August 18, During this time, however, a separate tide gauge was continuously recording nearby, so there is a complete set of water level data in the South Seagate Dr area. The 4.5 days that velocity data exists covers a variety of tidal ranges from 1.5 ft ~ 4.1 It, and the flow direction and magnitude show a definite correlation with the tide phase and amplitude, Given that the tidal fiuctuation during the 3.5 days of missing data is not radically different from the other 4.5 days, there is no reason to believe that flow velocities and patterns were distinctly different, either, The data that exists is sufficient to gain insight into how flow direction and magnitude at Seagate Dr vary with tidal fluctuations in Clam Bay and Moorings Bay, At Harbour Dr, the stolen battery resulted in the loss of about 18 hours of data from the night of August 18 to midday on August 19, Upon reconnection of a new battery and a reset of the instrument, data was collected but appears to be unreliable, The deployment log and instrument have been thoroughly checked for errors, but to no avail. Taking these issues into account, there are about 3.75 days of usable velocity data at Harbour Dr; see Figure 7.25 on page 73 of the report. However, since the instrument did not need to be removed from the water during this time, the redundant tide gauge at this location recorded a full 8 days of water level data. As at Seagate Dr, there is no reason to expect that the flow Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 125 of 133 patterns during the missing time span were drastically different than the recorded data, given the similar water level variations during both periods. It should be noted that for any future hydrodynamic model calibration, the water level data serves as the most important parameter, as flow patterns and magnitudes are driven by the differences in water level across the water body, Calibration for flow velocity is important as well, but can be approached in a different manner, During the calibration process, it is desirable for measured and modeled water levels to be consistent over time; this is feasible due to the generally smooth variations that occur with water level over time. Calibrating for velocity in the same manner would be difficult to impossible, given the much greater variability and scatter of the measured velocity data over shorter time periods, Instead of attempting to get a high correlation between measured and modeled velocity for the entire time series, the modeler can first calibrate for water level, and once that is sufficiently matched, the velocity data can be used as a 'check' to make sure that the general direction, magnitude, and phase of the modeled velocities are in line with the measured data. At the Clam Pass ADCP, there is a continuous velocity data set for the 8 day span; however, after analysis, we are suspect of the water surface elevation data. The range appears to be too small, and the overall elevation appears too low, Multiple checks of the instrument log, setup, and survey data did not provide answers to this issue, and two identical instruments with identical setups did not have this problem. As such, we did not use this water level data for any analysis, When estimates of flow rates and volumes were developed, the measured Gulf tide at Clam Pass was used instead, given that gauge's proximity to the gauge in Clam Pass. This substitution was clearly stated with caveats in the report. While the loss of this water level data is unfortunate, there is still a multitude of other measured tide data in this study, with several (Gulfside Clam Pass, North Bridge) in close proximity to Clam Pass. The velocity data in the pass is reliable, and the amount of water level data at other locations still provides an extensive view of the circulation within the system. In conclusion, at both Seagate Dr and Harbour Dr, despite the data gaps, there is sufficient velocity data to both gain an understanding of the flow patterns and magnitudes as well as serve as a useful data set for any future model calibration. Given that the flow rate exercise was a cursory estimate, the substitution of water level data from the Gulf to calculate flow rates at Clam Pass is a reasonable approximation. The absence of water level data at Clam Pass is regrettable, but the large amount of gauges at other locations in the system nonetheiess allows an extensive look at the system circulation. 4, The report needs to provide more information about the Seagate Dr culverts and flap gates, It is hard to believe that the flap gates were removed due to a lack of flow, but now flow Is lOx greater in the southerly direction than the northerly direction. , The flap gates on the culverts, removed in 1997, were installed such that flow to the north was allowed, while southward flow was blocked. The data collected in August 2009, in the absence of flap gates, exhibited peak velocities 10x greater in the southerly direction than the northerly direction. Peak flow rates were 3x greater in the southerly direction, and the estimated average volume exchange was 6x greater in the southerly direction. The magnitude of the southerly flow is proportional to the concurrent fluctuation in water level. See Item 2 for more details. These findings are consistent with the flap gate removal; the collected data demonstrates relatively low flow from Moorings Bay into Clam Bay (seemingly regardless of the concurrent magnitude of change in water level), which may be too weak to have opened the flap gates while they were installed. Any water that 'piled up' in Clam Bay due to the restriction on southward flow would have only exacerbated thiS scenario. Furthermore, the conclusion of dominant southward flow through the Seagate Dr culverts, with the magnitude dependent on the range of tidal fluctuation, has been documented several times in the past. In 1977, the USEPA performed a dye study and concluded that there existed a net southerly flux from Clam Bay to Moorings Bay after the installation of the Seagate Dr culverts. In 1981, the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation measured flow with dye tracer and current meters, concluding that southerly flow is 50-60% greater in the southerly direction at Seagate Dr. In discussions with local Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 126 of 133 citizens, the consensus is that while flow does indeed move in both directions, it is much stronger when flowing southward from Clam Bay into Moorings Bay, To our knowledge, the only source that mentions equal flow in both directions is that of the 1996 report by Tackney & Associates. In this report, however, it appears that it was merely assumed that the flow varied uniformly back and forth through the culverts, without directional current data to support this assertion. In light of the multiple current measurements, dye tracer studies, and anecdotal evidence pointing towards dominant southward flow, the observations made in August 2009 are not the result of intermittent, exceptional conditions. Due to the differences in water levels and the speed of tidal propagation in Clam Bay and Moorings Bay, flow rates at Seagate Dr are significantly higher in the southerly direction on an ebb tide than they are in the northerly direction during a flood tide, The evidence is very supportive of the conclusion that net water exchange through the Seagate Dr culverts is predominantly southward, 5, The report needs to provide details on the flow calculations presented in Section 7.3, Flow rates were estimated as the depth-averaged velocity multiplied by cross-sectional area at each time. step. The cross-sectional area varied with depth corresponding to the tide level. Equations 1 and 2 show the procedure for calculating flow rates and volumes for each data time step; total volumes are found by adding together the volumes in either direction, and the net volume is the difference between the total volumes, Equation 1. Flow rate (ft3/s) over time. Q(t) = v(t)W[d + 1'J(t)] Equation 2. Flow volume (fe) per time step. Vet) = Q(t)dt In the above equations, Q(t) (1I3/s) is the flow rate over time, vet) (IUs) is the depth-averaged velocity over time, W (II) is the width of the channel in which flow was measured, d (II) is the depth of the channel relative to the NAVD88, I}(t) (II) is the water surface elevation relative to NAVD88 over time, Vet) (113) is the volume exchange during each time step, and dt (s) is the length of the data time step, Table 1 below outlines the channel width and depth values used for the flow rate estimations, Channel widths were estimated from aerial imagery; the width at Seagate Dr is an estimation of the effective width of the area with the majority of water flow, since the instrument was located south of the culverts rather than inside the culverts. It should be reiterated that these estimations of flow rates were a cursory exercise, and do not account for changes in the channel width caused by the rising and falling tide. Table 1.

The only significant rainfall events within the 8 day data span were those of August 15,16, and 17, where a total of 1.38 in fell. This rainfall is likely a contributing factor to the slight (< 0.5 ft) increase in apparent mean water levels in Upper and Inner Clam Bays. The other likely factor is the increasing range of the 'smaller' tide each day as the study progresses. Wind speeds are somewhat gusty, but the dominant direction is largely easterly; this likely precludes wind setup as a major factor in the system circulation, since the major axes of Clam Bay and Moorings Bay are aligned in a north-south manner.

EPA Surveillance and Analysis Division, Athens, GA Agenda Item No.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 128 of 133 Response to Criticisms Most ofthe comments on the PBS&J report were related to water quality and the natural systems characteristics of both Moorings Bay and Clam Bay, In particular, most comments relate to the perception that the two systems were being compared to each other, particularly in terms that were unfavorable toward Clam Bay's water quality, without due consideration of its broader ecological health, This is an unfortunate conclusion perhaps due in part to the somewhat simplistically-worded Executive Summary, While Moorings Bay was referred to as a "natural system" in one part of the report, and such a choice of words is problematic, the text of the report clearly refers to the loss of natural shoreline features in Moorings Bay, and in fact includes two aerial photographs to highlight that impact. We believe that the text is very clear in noting that Clam Bay has retained most of its natural shoreline features, while Moorings Bay has not, However, a natural systems inventory was not the primary purpose of this effort, and the scope of work (reviewed and approved by the Clam Bay Technical Advisory Committee) did not include the time or funds necessary for such an effort, This project was focused on water quality, specifically as it relates to the Impaired Waters Rule (IWR) and the Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL) program, The following text will attempt to address concerns that appear to underlie the majority of comments received on this report, Water Qualitv "impairments" for dissolved oxvgen aren't problematic The data set for Clam Bay that was reviewed by the authors contains a number of erroneous readings for dissolved oxygen (DO), but these values are on the high end of the scale, While it could be argued that all DO data are suspect, we believe that only the extremely high values are problematic, For the sites examined, between 20 to 50% of DO readings (by site) fell below the IWR standard of 4 mg / liter, This finding is not proof in and of itself that these low DO readings are due to human activities, as the report clearly states, In fact, the report states that a number of locations, including the reference sites for the Gordon River TMDL report and reference sites throughout the Everglades also fail DO standards, The authors do not see how our text could be construed as suggesting that the likelihood of "failing" of DO standards (that are discussed as being problematic) would be suggestive that Clam Bay is in trouble, ecologically, However, Clam Bay sites also have levels of TN and TP that would, in conjunction with the DO readings, most likely result in the bay being declared impaired by FDEP, Data are presented throughout the report that show levels of nutrients in Clam Bay, Based on guidance obtained by FDEP, "screening" levels of TN are exceeded at Clam Bay sites between 21 and 73 percent of the time, Levels of TP used by FDEP to screen for a possible nutrient link for DO violations are exceeded between 2 and 11 percent of the time for Clam Bay sites, For both TN and TP, the lowest frequency of exceedance for screening levels were at the Seagate Drive site, Staff from FDEP have confirmed that it is likely, based on data collected by the Pelican Bay Services Division, that Clam Bay would be declared "impaired" for DO, This impairment status decision could be problematic, as the report clearly states, In particular, the report cites the example of Rookery Bay, which has been listed by FDEP as "Verified Impaired" despite the fact that the authors of this report Agenda Item NO.1 OF December 15, 2009 Page 129 of 133 (and at least one reviewer as well) regard Rookery Bay as mostly an unimpaired system, An additional specific example of the unrealistic nature of IWR's default DO targets for the western Everglades is outlined in the report, Interestingly, within Moorings Bay, data provided by the City of Naples show that just under 6 % of all DO readings were under the IWR standard of 4 mg / liter. For TN, 2 percent of Moorings Bay samples exceeded the IWR screening level, while no TP values exceeded the IWR screening level. These more recent data from Moorings Bay could represent an improvement in water quality conditions, compared to those noted in a 1981 study by the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation, That study (FDER 1981) suggested that the apparently improving water quality conditions in the late 1970s in Mooring Bay were perhaps associated with reduced rates of development of the watershed, While wildlife utilization by birds, fish, etc, may in fact be higher in Clam Bay, compared to Moorings Bay, the IWR and the TMDL programs do not allow for the luxury of claiming systems to be "pristine" due to an abundance of wildlife sitings, Somewhat paradoxically, one of the most impacted lakes in Florida (Lake Hancock), which has incredibly poor water quality and a TMDL calling for more than 70 percent reductions in TN and TP loads, is also home to thousands of alligators, and has a significant number of bald eagles along its shoreline, Wildlife utilization and water quality do not always "match" in terms of characterization efforts, Water qualitv "impairments" for chlorophvll-a aren't problematic In general, this argument is a more plausible one to make, The report clearly shows that the only station within Clam Bay that exceeds the 111lg / liter standard for chlorophyll-a is located in the far northern reach of Upper Clam Bay, But water quality sampling locations aren't in ideal locations for an ambient monitoring program, and the IWR allows for "impairment" to be determined not only based on exceeding a set level, but also by the trend, if any, between "historic" and "verified" time periods, PBS&J has recently worked with FDEP to delist water quality impairment in Roberts Bay and Blackburn Bay (within Sarasota Bay), as seagrass coverage increased over the past 20 years in these "impaired" systems, If Clam Bay was to be lumped together such that water quality in Upper, Inner and Outer Clam Bay were combined, it would likely be that the lower levels of chlorophyll-a, TN and TP, and the higher levels of DO in the areas further south would cancel out (to an extent) the higher levels found in areas north of Clam Pass, Moorings Bay and Clam Bay are different systems, and their ecological values are different This contention is not at odds with our report, It is noted in the report that Moorings Bay has none of the natural shoreline features of Clam Bay, But the focus of this report, based on a scope of work reviewed and approved by the Clam Bay Advisory Committee, did not include assessments of shellfish and finfish or bird abundance, Nor do there appear to be ongoing assessments of a similar nature for these two systems, to our knowledge, The wording used in Section 4.0 in the PBS&J report does not suggest that Clam Bay's ecology is "impaired", only that existing state guidance would likely result in its water quality being determined to Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 130 of 133 be impaired, The numerous criticisms received that the PBS&J report suggests Clam Bay is ecologically unbalanced are without merit, in the authors' opinion, The shallow Redox layer and fine<grained sediments noted in Outer Clam Bay are "natural" The shallow Redox layer found throughout Upper Clam Bay could in fact be a completely natural feature, as most mangrove-lined, semi-isolated systems have thick organic layers that are associated with low levels of DO and a heterotrophy-dominated food web (note language used in Section 4,0, and bullet points in the Executive Summary), However, the fine layer of silt and silty clay found in Outer Clam Bay may (or may not) be related to human activity, The report clearly states that further work is needed to determine if this layer of silt - which appears to have created a shallow Redox layer - is (for example) 5,000 years old, or 50 years old, That assessment is key to understanding if this sediment layer is natural or problematic, and the report clearly makes this statement, Interestingly, the 1975 EPA study on Clam Bay and Moorings Bay (called Parkshore in that study) concluded that reduced numbers oltaxa (I.e" species of benthic organisms) in portions of the Clam and Moorings Bay systems were likely associated with the increased amount of fine-grained sediments (I.e" silt) in those same locations, Agenda Item No, 10F December 15, 2009 Page 131 of 133 COLLIER COUN1Y GOVERNMENT Pelican Bay Services Division 801 Laurel Oak Drive.
