Final Report Anclote Commercial Plankton Monitoring Program, E. P. Wilkens, W. R. Weiss, J. D. Horne

Reports

Commercial plankton were monitored in the vicinity of Florida Power Corporation's Ancolote power plant from January through December, 1976 in order to assess the entrainment potential for ichthyoplankton and planktonic stages of commercially important invertebrates and to estimate the annual standing crop of these organisms.

The purpose of this report is to present commercial plankton data collected at anclote from January through December of 1976. Additional data gathered by Florida Power Corporation and the University of South Florida during 1975 is also discussed. Entrainment loss estimates for commercial plankton have been calculated and are discussed in terms of their possible …

Primary Productivity In Hillsborough Bay, City Of Tampa Department Of Sanitary Sewers

Reports

This study was designed to be a long term ecological study. Effects of nutrient removal through time on productivity is expected to be shown.

As the treatment progresses from primary to secondary, to nitrification, to denitrification, we expect to be able to document corresponding drops in productivity levels.

Ancolote Power Station Post-Operational Plankton Monitoring Program: Vol 1 Technical Discussion, Westinghouse Electric Corporation, Environmental Systems Department (Pa)

Reports

The affect of the Anclote Power Station on the plankton community was evaluated by (1) determining differences among stations, (2) comparing results from the post-operational plankton monitoring program, 93) examining any major changes in seasonal cycles from those expected of plankton communities in shallow-water, subtropical estuaries and (4) determining the frequency of occurrence and extent of temperatures known to adversely affect the copepods Acartia tonsa and Oithona spp.

Anclote Power-Station Post-Operational Plankton Monitoring Program Volume I: Technical Discussion, Westinghouse Electric Corporation, Environmental Systems (Pa), Florida Power Corporation

Reports

As part of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has required that Florida Power Corporation (FPC) demonstrate that .operation of the Anclote Power Station does not adversely affect the aquatic community of the Anclote River and Anchorage. In response to this requirement FPC initiated the Anclote Post-operational Ecological Monitoring Program and contracted with Westinghouse Environmental Systems Department to conduct the plankton monitoring portion of the program.

1976 Water Quality Hillsborough County, Florida, R. G. Wilkins

Reports

The Hillsborough County Environmental Protection Ac t charges the Environmental Prote ction Commission with the function of establishing, operating and maintaining a continuous program for monitoring water pollution. A county-wide water quality surveillance network has been designed to provide accurate data and information as t o whether the requirements of the Act are being complied with and whether the level of water pollution is increasing or decreasing throughout the county.

This broad base of water data obtained during 1972-1976 provides useful background data for eventual development, revision and enforcement of regulations, standard effluent limitation plans, or programs established under the …

Impact Of Dredging In Tampa Bay 1976, Roy R. Lewis Iii

Reports

During the last 100 years four major types of dredging have impacted the bay: channel deepening, maintenance dredging, shell dredging, and dredging for landfill construction. These landfills have resulted in the loss of 44% of the original marine wetlands bordering Tampa Bay. Recent environmental concerns have halted landfill dredging and severely restricted maintenance dredging.
