The new Water Quality/Quantity BMP Manuals are now available online:

http://www.freshfromflorida.com/content/download/63017/1444054/VACBMP_FINAL_2015.pdf

This guide is for vegetable and agronomic crop producers.  In an adopted BMAP area, ag producers must implement FDACS-adopted BMP’s or conduct FDEP directed water quality monitoring.  If you voluntarily enroll you will be viewed as compliant with state water quality standards.  BMP enrollment provides cost-share eligibility through government programs.  Even if you previously enrolled you will need to re-sign with the 2015 manual to retain the presumption of compliance. 

Record keeping:  Growers must now document practices and keep records of: 

  1.  Soil and tissue testing
  2. Nutrient applications of N and/or P
  3. High-rate fertilizer mitigation
  4. Rainfall
  5. Drawings of ditch cross-sections
  6. New well construction or well modifications

Note that FDACS will not keep grower records.

For further information contact your local FDACS office.
