Class III.

Everglades Protection Area

As defined in Section 373.4592(2)(i), F.S., and includes Water Conservation Areas 1, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, the Arthur R. Marshall National Wildlife Refuge, and Everglades National Park. Class III.

Note: this SSAC applies to fresh waters within the described area.

Dissolved Oxygen shall be evaluated based on an algorithm that uses sample collection time and water temperature to model the observed natural sinusoidal diel cycle and seasonal variability. This model provides a lower DO limit (DOL) for an individual monitoring station and is described by the equation:

DOL_i = [- 3.70 – {1.50 • sine (2π/1440 • t_i) – (0.30 • sine [4π/1440 • t_i])} + 1/(0.0683 + 0.00198 • C_i + 5.24•10^-6 • C_i²)] – 1.1

Where:

DOL_i = lower limit for the i^th annual DO measurement in milligrams per liter (mg/L)

t_i = sample collection time in minutes (Eastern Standard Time) since midnight of the i^th annual DO measurement

C_i = water temperature associated with the i^th annual DO measurement in °C

Compliance with the SSAC is assessed based on a comparison between the annual average measured DO concentration and the average of the corresponding DO limits specified by the above equation.   Applies year round.

St. Johns River

Marine portions of the Lower St. Johns River and its tributaries between Julington Creek and the mouth of the river.

Class III.

Dissolved Oxygen not less than a minimum concentration of 4.0 mg/L, and a Total Fractional Exposure not greater than 1.0 over an annual evaluation period as defined by the following equation:

Total Fractional Exposure = (Days between 4.0-<4.2 mg/L÷16 day Max) + (Days between 4.0-<4.2 mg/L÷21 day Max) + (Days between 4.0-<4.2 mg/L÷30 day Max) + (Days between 4.0-<4.2 mg/L÷47 day Max) + (Days between 4.0-<4.2 mg/L÷55 day Max)

or alternate view

where the number of days in an interval is based on the daily average Dissolved Oxygen concentration.  Applies year round.
