    GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: This public workshop is for interested stakeholders to discuss with the Department issues related to development of nutrient and dissolved oxygen total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) for Lake Talquin in the Ochlockonee River basin. The workshop will provide an opportunity for the Department to present and respond to the public comments received since the January 27, 2015 meeting on TMDL modeling, discuss potential TMDL target setting approach, and outline the next steps. Furthermore, the Department intends for the nutrient TMDLs to constitute site specific numeric interpretations of the narrative nutrient criterion set forth in paragraph 62-302.530(47)(b), F.A.C., that will supersede the otherwise applicable numeric nutrient criteria in rule 62-302.531, F.A.C., for the particular surface water segment. Written comments on the TMDL approach should be directed to: Xueqing Gao, Environmental Administrator, Watershed Evaluation and TMDL Section, Florida Department of Environmental Protection, MS 3555, 2600 Blair Stone Road, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-2400 or via email: Xueqing.Gao@dep.state.fl.us.
