Abstract:
In July, 1988, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Thomas
convened a National Estuary Program (NEP) Management Conference for Sarasota
Bay, Florida. Governor Bob Martinez designated the Florida Department of
Environmental Regulation (FDER) as lead agency for the project, and FDER and
EPA entered into a cooperative agreement for program planning and development
for the Sarasota Bay NEP in August, 1988. The scope of work details the activities and tasks which were undertaken to initiate the Sarasota Bay NEP, which include: establishment of a Project Office; appointment of Management
Conference committees; development of an information management system; design of a Bay-wide monitoring program; creation of a public participation program; and preparation of work plans and quality assurance plans. This document addresses the requirement for a bay-wide monitoring program.
