II. ANCLOTE ,

A. INTRODUCTION -

The . Anclote Environmental LProject has '

been concerned with the continuation of stud-ies initiated at the Anclote Plant Site in July of 1970 by Florida Power Corporation and the University of South Florida, Department. of

' Marine Science. In addition, several programs -

have been added to better document environ- -

mental changes in certain more specific areas. '

The initiation of dredging activity both by '

Florida Power Corporation and .the Army Corps of Engineers has required a concen- 5 trated effort by the Departm.ent of Marine Science personnel to document the nature, -

and extent of alterations to the environment '

by dredging operations. Preliminary results[  !' '

indicate that the channel dredging by the Corps has resulted in markedly increased tur- - -

bidity in .the Anclote Anchorage while th'e _

resulting spoil banks and Islands may contrib-ute to .both increased turbidity and some changes in circulation patterns.

The acquisition of re'mote sensing devices has enabled DMS to conduct extensive monthly physico-chemical surveys which will better document circulation patterns; limits and rates of thermal change, tidal effects, -

water quality parameters, and benthic light' intensities. Much of these data will be incor- ,

porated into the circulation models developed -

for the Anclote area.

Water apparently builds up behind the bars until it can flow over them, cascading into the next basin. The pattern established by an overnight drogue survey indicated that the water used in the plant con-densers may take four or more tidal cycles to completely escape from the discharge basin.

Generally, dye and drogue studies confirmed the findings of the STD surveys.

Current measurements were made at the entrance of Salt Creek to determine the volume of water that enters and discharges from Salt Creek.

Estuarine ecosystems may possess an inher-ent ability to adapt to such stresses because of the natural f;uctuations of temperature, salin- t ity, waves et cetera, in the coastal zone.  ;
