Water Workshop  Water Workshop  Water quality in Boca Ciega Bayi is currently well documented as "locally poor". After much research and many phone calls, Iwas able to find that Pinellas County is testing for water quality in our area oft the bay. They take samples every 6 weeks from randomly selected locations in a much larger overall area W6 and/or W7. Sometimes samples are taken in our area of the Bay and sometimes not. This new sampling process started Separate sampling date, time and data sets can be requested from Pinellas County for each sampling site. Requesting a separate data set for the samples taken in our area of the Bay may be enough to better monitor our water quality. That would establish separate ambient water quality parameters in our area and enable the City of South Pasadena to establish objectives to improve water quality and decide what actions tot take to do that.. After reviewing what steps to take with local conservation groups such as the Tampa Bay Estuary Program, the City would be able to start an initiative to clean up our Bay to protect the long term future sustainability of our local economy and to protect our area from further environmental degradation. The data could be posted on the City of South Pasadena Website with al link to the Pinellas County Water The Tampa Bay Estuary Program (TBEP) has devoted decades of hard work and millions of dollars to improving water quality and restoring sea grass beds throughout the Tampa Bay Estuary. Their hard work has increased both water quality and sea grass bed acreage in the estuary everywhere EXCEPT Boca Ciega Bay- our Bay! Valuable water filtering sea grass bed coverage in Boca Ciega Bay is still over 1900 acres below the TBEP restoration target and water quality has continued over time to be locally poor with some areas previously listed even lower and classified as impaired waterways. Bear Creek and Clam Bayou were previously listed as impaired waterways but were delisted as impaired when the testing parameters were With current fast paced growth and the associated increase in pollution TBEP managers are very concerned about maintaining the water quality gains of recent decades to be able to continue protecting Bay habitats The Tampa Bay Water Atlas Program is another resource that was designed to help meet the needs of local governments by providing the means through technology to connect multiple stakeholders in water resource management. The Atlas serves as a one-stop data warehouse, which provides unprecedented access to a wealth of water resource information. This information is presented in a variety of ways, including interactive graphs, tables, maps and graphics, sO as to be understandable to both water research professionals and those people simply interested in learning more about the water resources within their area. The Southwest Water Management District and other government agencies enforce minimum water quality standards that MUST be met and maintained quoted from an article in the Miami Herald that water quality inc canals in the Florida Keys failed these minimum standards and that the cost of repairing the water quality there is estimated at $700 million: "Irma may also hamper the County's $700 million canal restoration project, launched last year to fend off environmental regulators after nearly 150 canals FAILED TO MEET  after they closed the sampling site in our area 59-01 in 2002.

They failed water quality standards BEFORE hurricane Irma inflicted additional The Indian River Lagoon water quality issues forced Brevard County to add a 1/2 cent sales tax to raise over $300 million dollars to address their water quality woes. Many other bays in Florida are facing the same poor The Federal and State agencies that are supposed to protect our natural resources and estuaries have failed to do sO in many locations throughout Florida by not taking into account the many negative CUMULATIVE man made impacts and the additional negative natural stressors to our ecosystems. Now it's costing thei tax Our area oft the Bay has to meet and maintain minimum water quality standards too. Boca Ciega Bay was heavily damaged by dredge andi fill that greatly reduced and altered the natural water flowi forever. High density coastal development created excessive nutrient runoff that has heavily silted the bottom of our bays. High boat traffic continues to fragment and damage sea grass beds and increases water turbidity that further reduces local water clarity. Lack of enforcement of slow speed zones reduces water clarity even more. It's stated on page one of the Causeway' Village MHP Marina Management Plan that they must provide the Southwest Florida Water Management District reasonable assurance that State water quality standards will be met and maintained. What are these standards? What testing was done fort the hydrology review and hydrology evaluation? Was ambient water quality testing done near the build site? Was ai flow or1 flush rate test done? Was a comprehensive bottom sediment test report for the surrounding area done? If not, what evidence provides enough reasonable assurance that the project and increased boating activity won't degrade the surrounding Outstanding Florida Waters oft the Boca Ciega Bay Aquatic Preserve? These Another large marina certainly won't improve water quality buti instead would most likely lower already poor water quality throughout Boca Ciega Bayi in our Outstanding Florida Waters and those of all our neighboring communities. Our Bay is shallow andi thel bottom is silty. Additional boat traffic will stir up already polluted bottom sediments and decrease water clarity even more. A direct quote taken from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection website Additional Information and Drawing Checklist- Marina states: "Marinas often have water quality problems from pollutants associated with oils and greases, toxic metals, fecal Two stroke outboard motor efficiency has improved but all outboard motors exhaust some unburned fuel and lubricating oil into the waterway. Older models, many still in use today can exhaust up to 25 or 30% of the total fuel used in unburned fuel and lubricating oil that is deposited directly into a waterway and eventually breaks down into toxic pollutants that can settle to the bottom of the bay. These toxic pollutants are known CARCINOGENSI You also have to consider enforcement or lack thereof and the tendency of some who may feel Best Marina Management Practices don't apply to them.

Dredge and filli in our area was halted decades It's time to address the damage that pollutants and environmental degradation from an additional marina development will have on our water quality before approval of any marina permit not after and to consider sustainable alternatives to another large marina in our area. If we don't, our water quality will continue to deteriorate. That is NOT int the best interest of the people. We have a right to clean water in our bays as established by rules and regulations meant to protect our Outstanding Florida Waters! It would be much more cost effective to monitor the water quality in our area oft the Boca Ciega Bay Aquatic Preserve and initiate steps to improve water quality to ensure it doesn't fail water quality test standards now ori in thet future and to initiate a program to protect our valuable resources for future generations to enjoy. Maintaining and improving water quality is vitally important because it impacts our health, the health of our environment, our economic future and our day to day Florida lifestyle.

Effective Mixing Depth  Effectivemixing depth is the maximum depth at which the engine stirs up thewaterand,in tum, the lake bottom sediment. The importance ofthese findings is that power boating in shallowareas on lakes is likely to stir up bottom sediments, decreasing water clarity and releasing nutrients from the lakebottom, which can feed algae blooms.

So how do boats affect water quality? The Wisconsin DNR did a study on the effects of motorized watercraft on aquatic  ecosystems. Boats can affect water quality in a few different aspects. First, they can add metals and chemicals to the water column. A certain amount of the fuel that enters into a motor is discharged  unburned and ends up in the water. Two stroke motors can emit 25-30% of their unburned gas and oil mixture into the    FUNDAMENTALS OF ENVIRONMENTAL MEASUREMENTS  0 -  n  - Photosyntheticaly Active Radiation and Solar  Radiation  Water Temperature -  LI a  Turbidity, Total  Suspended Solids &  Water Clarity  1 TOP    water turbidity explained  Turbidity  Turbidity is an optical determination of water clarity 1. Turbid water will appear cloudy, murky, or otherwise colored, affecting the physical look of the water. Suspended solids and dissolved colored material reduce water clarity by creating an opaque, hazy or muddy appearance. Turbidity measurements are often used as an indicator of water quality based on clarity and estimated total suspended solids in water. High turbidity levels can diminish visibility and often feeding behaviors, in addition to physically harming aquatic life. The suspended solids may disrupt the natural movements and migrations of aquatic populations 13. Fish that rely on: sight and speed to catch their prey are especially affected by high turbidity levels. These fish often flee areas of high turbidity for new territories 37. Fort thei fish that remain in the turbid environment, suspended sediment can begin to physically affect thei fish. Fine sediment can clog fish gills and lower an organism's resistance to disease and parasites 37. Some fish may consume suspended solids, causing illness and exposing the fish to potential toxins or pathogens on the sediment. If the consumed sediment does not kill thet fish, it can alter the organism's blood chemistry and impair its growth 37. Turbidity will also affect submerged plant growth. Levels over 15 NTU are considered detrimental to bay grass growth in estuary zones 16. As turbidity increases, the amount of light available to submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) decreases. Without enough light, photosynthesis will stop, and the SAV will no longer produce dissolved oxygen. In addition to reducing the dissolved oxygen concentration in the water, the plants will eventually die 40. As the aquatic vegetation dies off, the organisms that feed on it will also decline due to the reduced food sources available 13. Ifturbidity levels remain elevated, the effects can be seen up thei food Even aquatic lifet that does not strongly depend on vegetation for survival will be affected by the low dissolved oxygen levels 40. Ift these fish and invertebrate cannot escape the anoxic area, they will die. Ing general, marine environments have lower turbidity levels than freshwater sources 10. The salinity of the ocean or estuary will cause the the suspended solids to aggregate, or combine. As the aggregate weight increases, the solids begin to sink and will settle on the seafloor 10. This effect offers greater water clarity than is available in most lakes and rivers. The higher the salinity, the greater the effect 10. However, in tidal zones, at turbidity maximum may occur due to the constant resuspension of these settled solids 16. (High Turbidity can also inhibit photosynthesis by blocking sunlight. Halted or reduced photosynthesis means a decrease in plant survival and decreased dissolved oxygen output 9. The higher thei turbidity levels, the less light that can reach thel lower levels of water. This reduces plant productivity at the bottom of an ocean, lake orr river 15. Without the needed sunlight, seaweed and bay grasses below the water's surface will not be able Underwater vegetation die-off has two main effects. First, as photosynthetic processes decrease, less dissolved oxygen is produced, thus further reducing DO levels in a body of water 13. The subsequent decomposition oft the organic material can drop dissolved oxygen levels even lower. Second, seaweed and  chain 37.  Boat traffic causes constant resuspension.)  to continue photosynthesis and may die 16.  Page 1    water turbidity explained  contribute to thet total suspended solids concentration.  Some oft the more common suspended solid pollutants are pathogens (bacteria, protozoa, helminths), microbeads (from exfoliating soaps), wastewater effluent, sewage, airborne particulates, and road particles (e.g. asphalt and tire flecks). Colored wastewater discharge and dyes are pollutants that will affect turbidity, Nutrients like nitrate and phosphorus are often considered pollutants, but as they are a dissolved substance, they do not contribute directly to the suspended solids concentration 30. Instead, they are an indirect These dissolved nutrients, along with dissolved metals, chemicals, and refractory organics, will impact the quality of a body of water 29. Nitrate and phosphorus can cause eutrophication (excessive plant and algae growth) which in turn causes low dissolved oxygen levels due to plant respiration and microbial decomposition. Refractory organics are often carcinogenic, while heavy metals and other chemicals can be The most obvious examples of algae's contribution to turbidity are found in algal blooms 11. An algal bloom occurs when an excessive amount of algae grows quickly across the surface of a body of water. These blooms usually occur due to an influx of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus duet to agricultural runoff or decomposition, though warmer water temperatures and longer daylight hours also contribute to their growth 15. Floating algal blooms can block sunlight, release toxins, and deplete oxygen levels in a body of water 11. Pollutants such as dissolved metals and pathogens can attach to suspended particles and enter the water 2. This is why an increase in turbidity can often indicate potential pollution, not) just a decrease in water quality. Contaminants include bacteria, protozoa, nutrients (e.g. nitrates and phosphorus), pesticides, mercury, lead and other metals 17. Several of these pollutants, especially heavy metals, can be detrimental and often toxic to aquatic life 26. The addition of nutrients can encourage the development of harmful algal blooms. When the suspended solids concentration is due to organic materials, particularly sewage effluent and decaying organic matter, the presence of bacteria, protozoa and viruses are more likely. These organic suspended solids are also more likely to decrease dissolved oxygen levels as they are decomposed 19. Fondriest Environmental, Inc.

Studies on water quality and clarity found that in heavily trafficked waterways, boats did have a noticeable  impact. The presence of vessels  seemed to increase the growth of  algae and kick up sediments, both of which obstruct sunlight and spoil the water. What's more, deposits left from  boats can change the water's  chemistry, adding too much of certain compounds, like zinc and copper, or  making an environment overly alkaline or acidic. A decrease in water quality is bad for both wildlife and humans.    In fact, a large amount ofimpairment to wildlife is caused by smaller, less  noticeable aspects of boats. Chemicals  used to clean, protect, and run  watercraft often leach into the water, severely impacting the environment and weakening or killing the wildlife. Aquatic plants and animals have specific requirements for light,  temperature, pH level, and more, and  toxins from detergents, paints,  petroleum products, batteries, and metals have disastrous effects on  wildlife's ability to survive and thrive, including cancer, mutations, birth  defects, and outright death.    However, humans should be even  more concerned about the impacts of boats on natural environments. Many  freshwater waterways used for  recreational boating are also tapped for drinking water or used as spots for catching fish, shellfish, and other  foods. Unfortunately, the toxins that  endanger aquatic life are also  threatening to humans; consuming  contaminated water or seafood is likely to cause extensive health problems. In fact, merely swimming in heavily  trafficked waterways has been known to impair health because some toxins, like tributyltin (TBT) in anti-fouling paints, can be absorbed through the skin or eyes. Even humans aren'tsafe from the pollution caused by boats.    The state also ceased cleanup efforts on April 18 and is now considering how to  continue the work, Haag said.  Irma may also hamper the county's $700 million canal restoration project, launched last year to fend off environmental  regulators after nearly 150 canals failed to meet water-quality standards. Muck washed back into some cleaned canals, and barriers erected to keep out debris  were all destroyed.  After talks with FEMA stalled, Haag said the county started looking for other  money and found the U.S. Department of Agriculture would pay about $45 million as part of a natural resources conservation effort. But only 103 canals qualified. The county now hopes to resume work using the USDA money in July, she said, and ask FEMA to make up the difference.

Infractions do not have to be identical and separate notices of violations are cumulative. Copies of such Notices resulting from violations of the restriction conditions of this agreement shall be forwarded to the District office in  Sarasota. Violations:  The Owner reserves the right to identify any offender causing a violation within the marina, and to name said offender in any enforcement action taken by the District. The Owner acknowledges that it has the duty to monitor its residents to ensure their compliance with the MMP conditions and requirements. Should the Owner fail to enforce or improperly monitor the MMP with respect to activities ofi its patrons, then, the Owner acknowledges its responsibility and liability for violations of State rules, statutes, and water quality standards. Nothing herein shall be construed to waive any defenses provided to the Owner in Chapters 403 and 376, Florida Statutes, in any enforcement  action brought by the District. Marina Activities:  All 71 total slips will be for the private use of the residents. Fueling facilities and the sale of petroleum products will be prohibited. Major repairs or refitting of vessels, including any activity that could result in a deposition of any petroleum products into  Boca Ciega Bay is strictly prohibited. Sewage Pump Out Facilities:  There will be no sewage pump out facilities at the marina. No discharge of sewage or other pollutants within the marina is allowed. Any discharge into the marina is a violation of the MMP and shall constitute a violation and require enforcement action as  defined in the MMP.  Discharge of Waste or Other Materials:  State and Federal law prohibits discharge of any fluids, wastes, or other materials, regardless of nature, except for clean bilge water or properly treated wastewater. Illegal discharges into waterbody would adversely impact public health. If the Owner observes any such discharge in the marina, they will immediately notify the DISTRICT and call the State Warning Point number (1-800-320-0519). In the event of an accidental discharge in the marina, the vessel captain or operator is to notify the Owner immediately to ensure action will commence to contain the splled/discharged material.  Fuel/Oil Spill Prevention:  A Spill Response Kit containing one hundred (100) square feet of absorbent material and no less than one hundred fifty feet (150) of containment boom will be located on the upland adjacent to the base of the dock and will be immediately available to anyone in  Page 12    Public Education:  Itis the responsibility of the Owner, or the successor in title, to educate the renters of the Marina Management Plani through appropriate signage. Signage located within the marina will mimic manatee protection provisions approved by the FWC. Additional  signage will include information on seagrass protection.

Health care costs from hospital and doctor visits, beach clean-up activities following fish kills, and losses in tourism revenues are some of the costs associated with these blooms. For additional reading materials on the economic effects of harmful algal blooms, visit the  references section at the bottom of this page.  Health Costs  Researchers found that during a red tide in Sarasota Counfy, hospital emergency department diagnoses increased by 19% for pneumonia, 40% for gastrointestinal illnesses, and 54% for respiratory illnesses compared to a period when red tide was  not present in the area" 1,2.  During a red tide, the costs of hospital visits for respiratory illness alone inSarasota On average, $22 million dollars are lost annually (figure includes medical expenses and  Countyranged between $0.5 to $4 million dollars. lost work days) during HAB events*. Tourism and Mitigation Costs  One study in Okaloosa County, where Fort Walton Beach and Destin are located, estimated that red tides which occurred from 1995-2000 resulted in economic losses As survey of city and county government administrators responsible for red tide mitigation efforts along the Florida Gulf Coast was conducted by the University of Floridas. In Sarasota County, respondents estimated that $51,148 dollars was spent in the 2006-2007 fiscal year for six separate red tide events. In Lee County, an estimated $250,000 was spentfora single event in 2004 and, in Collier County, the same amount was spent in 20056. Administrators from Pinellas, Sarasota, Lee, Collier, Longboat Key, and Naples recorded dollar expenditures for clean-up activities ini their jurisdictions totaling $653,890 spent from 2004 to 2007 (figure includes equipment, labor, vendor, and supply fees)s. Most of the money spent was allocated to beach clean-up activities related to red tide.  of nearly $6.5 million dollars to local restaurant and hotel sectors'.  Fisheries Costs  - The annual impact of HABS to commercial fisheries was estimated to vary from $13-$25 million dollars with an average annual impact of $18 million (2000 dollars).

The Slow Speed Manatee Safe Zones should be year round sO that there is no reason for people to remember when to slow down and when it's coob   tofly through these areas.  5 8  2. The Slow Speed Manatee Safe Zones, including the zone between Palms of Pasadena Hospital and The Fountains on the Boca Ciega Bay need to be  patrolled.  3. The water needs to be tested until Boca Ciega Bay does NOT show up on  the poor water quality listing.  4. There needs to be a limit on the amount of boats ALL properties are allowed to house. There are too many "marinas" in the area.  5. Itis more cost effective to PRESERVE the waterways than to RESTORE them 6. There really should be mandatory Boat safety and training classes and a license for boats and jet skis. There are too many people out on the water that have no idea what the signs mean or even how to read a map showing sea grass beds and Manatee Safe Zones. You can't drive a car without a  license why is it alright to drive a boat without one?  7. Why are the landscape companies that maintain the properties along the water blowing the trimmings into the bay? It irritates me that they just  blow the clippings into the water like it's no big deal.  8. Ifthere is a known area that the Manatees travel and stop to eat, shouldn't these areas be protected against large boat traffic and expanding marinas    putting more boats in these areas? We really need to protect our Wild life.  Ifnot us, then who?  9. Water testing should be done in all areas of the waterways, SO we all know  the water is safe.  10. There is a boat that was damaged during Hurricane Irma, that is over by the V.A. Hospital. That boat still sits there among the rocks as of yesterday. Ihave heard the cost to have this boat removed is in the 20 thousand dollar range. If the clean up for these boats is going to be SO high, why is there not some sort of insurance required for them? Clearly the local cities or the counties can not pick up this kind of expense to clean up damaged boats after the storms. This is something that should go into consideration when people apply to expand marinas and add additional boat slips.  11. Causeway Village Mobil Home Park currently has an application with the Army Corps of Engineers, to expand their marina from 11 to 71 Boats. This isa5 55 and up community. Ifind it hard to believe there is a need for 71 boat slips. Also find it hard to imagine that people that are living in this community could afford the $20,000 clean up fee. If they can't, it will be on City of S. Pasadena to clean up. Again, look at the damage done from Hurricane Irma to the trailers there, imagine the destruction 71 boats in the  line of fire would cause.  12. Manatees feed on the two sea grass beds right there. It is ridiculous that this marina expansion has even been to the FDEP and ACOE. The City ofs S. Pasadena should have stood up and said ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! When you first heard of this. Clearly there are some people in the City that are NOT  looking out for the best interest of this Community.    5/30/2018  20180523.121659.p9  hitps./mail.google.com'malluolinbow/63096547b8970e970e9Ppoedor-lamessagePartd-0.1  1/1    301 South Bronough Street-Suite 300-P.O.
