Under the auspices of the CRWPP, the Research and Water Quality Monitoring Program (RWQMP) assessment indicated that although the basins east of the S-79 contributed the bulk of freshwater and nutrients, a paucity of water quality data is available for this part of the river. Consequently, the primary objective of this project is the development of a dataset from which to select long-term water quality stations along the main stem of the freshwater reach of the Caloosahatchee River in response to the 2007 Northern Everglades and Estuaries Protection Program Legislation. Specifically, the goal of this project is to identify the contribution of nutrients to the main stem of the Caloosahatchee River from individual tributaries/canals and to validate the location of proposed long-term monitoring stations. |
