The purpose of the rule is to adopt nutrient Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs), and their allocations, for Homosassa-Trotter-Pumphouse Springs Group, Bluebird Springs, Hidden River Springs, the Chassahowitzka Springs Group, Crab Creek Spring, Chassahowitzka River-Baird Creek, Baird Springs, Ruth Spring, and Beteejay Springs, all in the Springs Coast Basin. Furthermore, in accordance with paragraph 62-302.531(2)(a), F.A.C., the nutrient TMDLs for these segments will 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 subsection 62-302.531(2), F.A.C., for these particular surface water segments.
