updates to the simulation model) used to predict the water quantity created uncertainty

when comparing current and previous results. To date, no Comprehensive Everglades

Restoration Plan reservoir has been constructed. Therefore comparable existing lake or

reservoir systems must be used to predict the performance of the proposed reservoirs.

Choosing among these comparable systems is a significant challenge because of the wide

range of operations.

 Our aim was to create and use a model to estimate water quality in the EAASR

and Stormwater Treatment Area (STA) 3/4. The model needed to be able to function in

the dynamic and challenging EAASR design process. We hoped to gain key insights on

the most current EAASR and STA 3/4 configurations.
