• Abstract:
  Nutrient content is a concern in Florida’s aquifers and springs – sources of drinking water, ; recreation, and the state’s natural beauty. In recent years, the nitrogen content of Florida’s ; aquifer springs has risen. This increase in nutrients can cause eutrophication– an increase ; in algal blooms and a decrease in oxygen to levels which do not meet water quality ; requirements. The Florida Department of Transportation is required by rule to design ; stormwater management systems that address these excess nutrients.
