Learn how to enhance phosphorus removal from water by optimizing Stormwater Treatment Areas (STAs). Research explores water depth, flow rate for improved STA management resulting in high phosphorus removal. Collaboration by South Florida Water Management District and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Stormwater Treatment Area Optimization Research WHAT IS IT AND WHY? We need to know how to operate the Stormwater Treatment Areas to remove the most phosphorus. STA Optimization research will explore: HOW DEEP CAN THE WATER BE? HOW FAST CAN THE WATER FLOW? USING THE RESULTS Improved management of the Stormwater. Treatment Areas should result in higher phosphorus removal from the water. South Florida Water Management District In Partnership With U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
