An Ongoing Survey Of Halodule Wrightii, Ruppia Maritima And The Alga, Caulerpa Prolifera, In Hillsborough Bay, Florida, City Of Tampa Department Of Sanitary Sewers

Reports

The Bay Study Group intends to periodically monitor seagrass coverage, seagrass speciecs composition, and C. prolifera coverage within Hillsborough Bay and adjacent waters. Potential relationships between various environmental parameters and seagrass coverage will be investigated. Results should provide valuable information concerning natural seagrass renewal and rates of seagrass growth. Such information is much needed in order to make sound decisions concerning seagrass restoration and viable mitigation options.

Water Quality 1986 - 1987 Hillsborough County, Florida, Hillsborough County Environmental Protection Commission

Reports

The Hillsborough County Environmental Protection Act charges the Environmental Protection 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 enable the staff to determine compliance with the Act and to determine whether the level of water pollution is increasing or decreasing throughout the county.

These data, obtained during 1972-1987 may provide useful background for eventual development, revision _ and enforcement of regulations, standard effluent limitation plans, or programs established under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972.
