These meetings provided stakeholders with an overview of the statewide biennial assessment process, schedule for publishing draft basin assessments lists and supporting documentation for the development of impaired waters lists. The Watershed Assessment Section held two public meetings on February 25 and March 4 to present updates on the implementation of a streamlined approach to assessing water quality statewide on a biennial (two-year) assessment cycle.

In addition to the draft assessment lists in spreadsheet format, the department has published an interactive map titled "Biennial Assessment 2020-2022 Drafts Lists" that shows the geographic location of the waterbodies and waterbody segments by WBID that are proposed for addition to the Verified List, Delist List, Study List, or Study List Removals. For help using the interactive map features, please review this help file or alternatively, you may download the draft lists GIS shapefiles as a geodatabase. The Draft Study Lists Removals include those waters that no longer meet the listing requirements for the Study List, as identified in Rule 62-303.390, F.A.C., and are submitted to EPA for removal from the CWA section 303(d) list. The Draft Study Lists include those waters that do not attain water quality standards and additional information is needed to confirm attainment there is an alternative restoration plan in place waters that have an adverse trend in nutrients or nutrient response variables or, there are exceedances of stream nutrient thresholds but the department does not have enough information to fully assess nonattainment of the stream nutrient water quality standard. The Draft Delist Lists include those waters that are proposed for removal from the State's Verified List and CWA section 303(d) list. The Draft Verified Lists include those waters that are proposed as additions to the State's Verified List of Impaired Waters and the Clean Water Act (CWA) section 303(d) list.

The Watershed Assessment Section announces the 2020-2022 Biennial Assessment Draft assessment lists of waterbodies and water segments. The DRAFT assessment lists were developed pursuant to Chapter 62-303, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), and include all 29 basins in the state. Notice of Statewide 2020-2022 Biennial Assessment Draft Assessment Lists and Public Meetings The extensive monitoring effort is accomplished through coordination with local stakeholders, water management districts, city, and county governments. These activities are carried out by seven Regional Operation Centers (ROCs) located throughout the department's six District offices and by staff in Tallahassee. The Watershed Assessment Section developed the 2022 Strategic Monitoring Plans to assist in assessing the health of Florida's surface waters by conducting biological assessments and water quality sampling. These plans represent the water quality and biological monitoring needs identified by the department in preparation for basin assessments as part of the watershed management approach.
