These TMDLs address certain nutrient impairments in the Middle St. Johns River Basin. Specifically, the nutrient TMDL rules being proposed for adoption are for the Lake George (2893A), St. Johns River above Ocklawaha River (2213O), St. Johns River below Lake George (2893A5), Lake Adair (2997R), Lake Alma (2986D), Lake Searcy (2986E), and Bear Gully Lake (3009).
