Passive Nitrogen Removal Study

Six sampling events have been completed at the test center in Wimauma Florida evaluating various combinations of passive nitrogen reducing media. Multiple homeowner agreements throughout Florida have been executed for research to be conducted for Task B (Field Testing of Technologies) and Task C (Evaluation of Nitrogen Reduction Provided by Soils and Shallow Groundwater). A nitrogen reduction system has been installed in Wakulla County for the Task B field testing. A tracer test has been conducted at the existing mound system at the Gulf Coast Research and Education Center (GCREC) in Wimauma Florida to assist with characterizing the movement of effluent from the mound. Three sample events have been completed for the existing mound system at GCREC for Task C. One home site in Wakulla County has been instrumented, monitored, and evaluated for Task C.
