1. Development of a Hydrodynamic and Salinity Model for Naples Bay and Rookery Bay Why do we need this project?  Recommended in Naples Bay SWIM Plan  Evaluate effects of anticipated water diversion from Naples Bay to Rookery Bay  Develop tool to quantify freshwater needs of Rookery Bay Why do we need this project?  Recommended in Naples Bay SWIM Plan  Evaluate effects of anticipated water diversion from Naples Bay to Rookery Bay  Develop tool to quantify freshwater needs of Rookery Bay

2. Project Tasks  Data Collection in Naples Bay for Model Calibration  1 additional year of data collection in Naples Bay - FY11  Data Assessment in Rookery Bay  Data collection in Rookery Bay if needed - FY12  Model Development and Calibration  Naples Bay – FY11 and FY12  Rookery Bay - FY13 Proposed monitoring stations

3. Existing model grid in Naples Bay Model Development  Existing Naples Bay grid to be expanded to include Rookery Bay  Model will be calibrated and validated with sufficient data for peer review  Model development report completed in 2013
