The FKRAD was developed by the Department in cooperation with local governments, state agencies, and federal agencies CD within the Florida Keys to set forth and accelerate the actions that have been taken or were planned to be taken to reduce nutrient loadings to near shore waters throughout the Florida Keys so that water quality standards are met and beneficial uses are restored. The Florida Keys Reasonable Assurance Plan was divided into several documents and can be found at http://www.dep.state.fl.us/Water/watersheds/rap.htm The near shore waters comprise 23 estuarine WBIDs (WaterBody IDentification units) classified as Class III waters (Recreation, Propagation and Maintenance of a Healthy, Well-Balanced Population of Fish and Wildlife) subject to the applicable water quality standards and assessment methodology set forth in Chapters a 62-302 (Surface Water Quality Standards) and 62-303 (Identification of Impaired Surface Waters, IWR) of 00 CD the Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). A map of the 23 WBIDs is included in Figure 1 below providing CD z the planning units (Upper Keys,Middle Keys,and Lower Keys)and cities. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Comprehensive monitoring will be performed to collect sufficient nutrient data to evaluate the FKRAD for the 23 FKRAD WBIDs, in order, to determine FKRAD nutrient compliance and support the Department's Impaired Waters assessments. The monitoring will consist of collecting an estimated 252 samples at 60-65 stations with 4 samples collected at each station in a calendar year for two consecutive years, and at least one sample collected between May 1 and September 30 and at least one sample collected during the other months of the calendar year. Note, most of the sample locations will require a boat for accessibility and two staff per sampling team.

The FKRAD was developed by the Department in cooperation with local governments, state agencies, and federal agencies within the Florida Keys to set forth and accelerate the actions that have been taken or were planned to be taken to reduce nutrient loadings to near shore waters throughout the Florida Keys so that water quality standards are met and beneficial uses are restored. The Florida Keys Reasonable Assurance Plan was divided into several documents and can be found at http://www.dep.state.fl.us/Water/watersheds/rap.htm The near shore waters comprise 23 estuarine WBIDs (WaterBody IDentification units) classified as Class III waters (Recreation, Propagation and Maintenance of a Healthy, Well-Balanced Population of Fish and Wildlife) subject to the applicable water quality standards and assessment methodology set forth in Chapters 62-302 (Surface Water Quality Standards) and 62-303 (Identification of Impaired Surface Waters, IWR) of the Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). A map of the 23 WBIDs is included in Figure 1 below providing 00 the planning units (Upper Keys,Middle Keys,and Lower Keys)and cities. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Comprehensive monitoring will be performed to collect sufficient nutrient data to evaluate the FKRAD for the 23 FKRAD WBIDs, in order, to determine FKRAD nutrient _ compliance and support the Department's Impaired Waters assessments. The monitoring will consist of 3i collecting an estimated 252 samples at 60-65 stations with 4 samples collected at each station in a calendar year for two consecutive years, and at least one sample collected between May 1 and September 30 and at least one sample collected during the other months of the calendar year. Note, most of the sample locations will require a boat for accessibility and two staff per sampling team.
