The proposed Water Quality and Ecological models will assist Bay County in its
decision-making process when selecting and prioritizing watershed restoration projects funded
under the RESTORE Act by allowing prospective impact assessments to be conducted. This
tool will aid in the comprehensive, coordinated management of the watershed to restore,
preserve and protect resources in a manner consistent with the goals of the St Andrew Bay
SWIM Plan and the County's multi-year implementation plan.
142,768
Development of a Comprehensive Aquatic Systems Model (CASM) will provide Bay County
staff with a cost-effective tool to assess the potential impacts of restoration projects
contemplated throughout Bay County on estuarine/Gulf waters, which can be applied prior to
making funding decisions.

RESTORE Act Direct Component eligible activity that the project undertakes (Check only
those that apply)
Activities Eligible for Funding
Restoration and protection of the natural resources, ecosystems, fisheries, marine and
wildlife habitats, beaches, and coastal wetlands of the Gulf Coast region
Mitigation of damage to fish, wildlife, and natural resources
Implementation of a federally approved marine, coastal, or comprehensive conservation
management plan, including fisheries monitoring
Workforce development and job creation
Improvements to or on State parks located in coastal areas affected by the Deepwater
Horizon oil spill
Infrastructure projects benefitting the economy or ecological resources, including port
infrastructure
Coastal flood protection and related infrastructure
Planning assistance
Administrative costs of complying with this subsection
Promotion of tourism in the Gulf Coast Region, including recreational fishing
Promotion of the consumption of seafood harvested from the Gulf Coast Region
These tools will provide a means to assess the impacts of potential projects affecting the
watershed at all levels of the food web, ranging from algae and seagrasses to commercial and
recreational fisheries, including oysters, clams, shrimp, scallops, spotted seatrout, and red
drum.
Utilization of WQ/CASM tools will provide Bay County staff and affected stakeholders with the
ability to provide insights into the expected impacts and outcomes of proposed projects, thus
giving added confidence that Bay County's leaders are selecting projects providing the most
"bang for the buck."
This project will leverage and build on the work done by US EPA (2010) setting a Total
Maximum Daily Load for St Andrews Bay and its watershed. At considerable savings to Bay
County and it RESTORE Act funds, the EPA's LSPC/HSPF/WASP model will be updated and
used to provide input data to the CASM.
