Marine Turtle Removal February 2010

Dear Meghan,

Attached, please find the monthly summary of marine turtle removals for February 2010. In February, we captured fifty (50) Caretta caretta, eighty six (86) Chelonia mydas, and three (3) Lepidochelys kempi at the intake canal of the St. Lucie power plant on Hutchinson Island. During the month, Florida continued to experience cold weather keeping the average intake canal water temperature around 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

Twenty four of our one hundred and thirty nine turtles captured were found to be cold stunned due to these lower temperatures. These turtles were juvenile green turtles and were all released later the same day.

During the month there were two turtles transported to rehabilitation facilities. On February 11, a juvenile green turtle was found with 80% of the right rear flipper missing with bones exposed. A deep gash was also present in the shoulder. This turtle was held overnight and transported by FFWCC to the Miami Seaquarium on 2/12/10. This event was considered non-causal to power plant operation. On February 20, a juvenile green turtle was found with a large gash extending from the posterior carapace to the plastron. Deep fresh cuts were also present on the right rear flipper. This turtle was transported to the Florida Oceanographic Coastal Center in Stuart by Inwater Research Group biologists and later picked up by FFWCC to be taken to the Marinelife Center in Juno Beach. This event was considered non-causal to power plant operation.

Throughout the month of February the temporary 5 mesh barrier net experienced light loads of algae that entered into the intake canal. This temporary barrier has effectively kept turtles from moving further down the canal. A permanent fix to this net continues to remain in the design phase.

Tag numbers and morphometric data for all turtles are attached. Also, attached is a spreadsheet of all captures, mortalities, injuries and causal events delineated by species and month/year to date for 2010. This spreadsheet also includes and tracks fresh scrapes incurred on captured turtles for the month of February which includes totals and percentage.
