The St. Johns River Water Management District is seeking public input as part of its work to develop minimum flows and levels (MFLs) for the Upper Ocklawaha River Basin (UORB), including lakes Apopka, Beauclair, Dora, Eustis, Harris and Griffin, in Lake, Marion and Orange counties. The District has initiated formal peer review of the UORB hydrologic model (HSPF — Hydrological Simulation Program—Fortran). The models, supporting documents, and peer review panel and stakeholder review comments regarding these models and documents can be accessed using the following link: http://www.floridaswater.com/minimumflowsandlevels/upper_ocklawaha_peer_review.html. The primary purpose of these workshops will be for the peer reviewers to work together to collectively develop a single peer-review report regarding the UORB hydrologic model. The District invites stakeholders to participate in these public workshops on February 3 and 4, to discuss all peer review panel and stakeholder comments received. NOTE: One or more members of the District’s Governing Board or Harris Chain of Lakes Restoration Council may attend this meeting.
