Basin Management Action Plan for Implementation of the Total Maximum Daily Loads for Fecal Coliform Adopted by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection in the Lower St. Johns River Tributaries Basin
The 10 tributaries discussed in this Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP) occupy approximately 6% or more than 166 square miles of the Lower St. Johns River (LSJR) Basin. The urban planning units are streams in the Duval County area, which include Trout River, Ortega River, North Mainstem, and Intracoastal Waterway. These urban streams are smaller and their water quality affected by urbanization. At least part of the drainage from these tributaries flows through urban Jacksonville and many are tidally influenced for substantial distances.
