The Department of Environmental Protection announces a public meeting to which all persons are invited.
DATE AND TIME: January 30, 2012, 2:00 p.m.
PLACE: Indian River County Commission Chambers, 1801 27th Street, Vero Beach, Florida 32960
GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: This meeting is presented to inform elected officials, public works and stormwater managers, land managers, and the public on the status of the Central Indian River Lagoon Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP). The Central Indian River Lagoon Basin covers the area of the Indian River Lagoon from US Highway 192 in Brevard County south to Ft. Pierce. The Central Indian River Lagoon BMAP is a plan of how to achieve the reductions in total nitrogen and total phosphorus loadings required by the Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) adopted for the Central Indian River Lagoon in 2009. The required reductions in total phosphorus and total nitrogen loadings will improve water quality sufficiently to allow growth of seagrasses to target water depths.
