The South Florida, St. Johns River, and Southwest Florida water management districts are conducting independent scientific peer review of their work to expand the East Central Florida Transient Groundwater Model in support of the 2020 Regional Water Supply Plan for the Central Florida Water Initiative (CFWI) area that includes the southern portion of Lake and all of Orange, Osceola, Polk and Seminole counties. Information to be reviewed, supporting documents, and review comments and documents produced by the peer review panel, as well as comments from stakeholders, will be accessible at http://cfwiwater.com/ by clicking on Hydrologic analysis under Working groups. The focus of this workshop is to discuss preliminary review of the Conceptual Model Document and plans for upcoming meetings. This is the second workshop for the ECFTX model whereby peer reviewers are working together with the goal of collectively developing a single peer-review report. The District invites stakeholders to participate in this public workshop on September 29 to discuss peer review panel and stakeholder comments received during the workshop. The minutes from this teleconference will be available for review, at the website above, by October 7, 2016. NOTE: One or more members of the District’s Governing Board may attend this meeting.
