•           Initial monitoring: (surface water) to be collected at the location of greatest depth in the existing lake.  Two samples, one sample shall be collected one half meter above the bottom of lake, the other sample at mid-depth. A third sample shall be collected one half meter below the surface at the lake’s outfall or discharge point. If no outfall or discharge point exists, the sample will be collected at one half meter below the surface at the location of greatest depth. The samples shall be tested for the primary and secondary drinking water standards (excluding asbestos, dioxin, bacteria, disinfection byproducts and radionuclides), additional parameters checked on the mining monitor parameters worksheet under surface water should also be analyzed initially.

Additionally a profile of field parameters (temperature, conductivity, pH and dissolved oxygen) shall be conducted and recorded in 1 foot increments at the location of greatest depth.

Initial monitoring: (groundwater water) each monitoring well shall be monitored for chloride, TDS, sulfate, pH, conductivity, iron, total hardness, and Florida PRO.

During the mining phase quarterly water quality monitoring shall consist of the
following:
Surface Water, Florida PRO, chloride, and stage.
Groundwater, Florida PRO, chloride, and water table elevation.

All field activities shall be conducted in accordance with FDEP’s Standard Operating
Procedures for Field Activities, FDEP-SOP-00101, February 1, 2004 (or current
revision). Analytical test shall be conducted by a Florida DOH NELAC certified
laboratory.
