Current through Reg. 50, No. 187; September 24, 2024

The Governing Board hereby establishes the following minimum flow. The Governing Board finds that the following minimum flow is the limit at which further withdrawals would be significantly harmful to the water resources or ecology of the area.

The minimum flow for St. Marks River Rise is established as an allowable reduction of 33 cubic feet per second from the baseline period average daily spring flow. The baseline period is October 1, 1956 to November 27, 2017. The average daily spring flow is calculated as the difference between the surface water flow measured at St. Marks River Near Newport, FL and the St. Marks River Near Woodville, FL Estimated Daily Flow. The most recent 30-year period of average daily spring flows is used to evaluate whether the minimum flow is met.
