S356FT S356 Field Test Pam Lehr WQB 17-AUG-2015 10-JUN-2020 The S-356 Field Test is an incremental approach the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is undertaking to develop the final operating plan for the Modified Water Deliveries (MWD) to Everglades National Park (ENP) and C-111 South Dade projects. The first increment of the Field Test will evaluate the raising of the G-3273 constraint of 6.8 feet NGVD and holding the L-29 Canal stage at 7.5 feet to enable increased water deliveries to ENP. The second increment will evaluate raising the L-29 Canal stage constraint. The final increment will incorporate information learned from the first two increments and will involve modeling to develop the final operating plan.
SFWMD was an active participant in the interagency development of the USACE Field Test Operational Strategy and Monitoring Plan as an agency in the USACE Project Delivery Team (PDT). The Operational Strategy and Monitoring Plan are part of the USACE Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact (EA / FONSI) signed in May 2015. SFWMD will conduct water quality, hydrologic, and ecological monitoring, throughout the first two increments of the Field Test. SFWMD will support development of the final operating plan by developing and applying regional hydrologic simulations of alternative operational plans during Increments 2 and 3. The SFWMD S-356 Field Test project includes all SFWMD activities and capital assets in its role as a participating agency in the USACE S356 Field Test and in development of the final operating plan.
