Project Description:
The project includes two Stormwater Treatment Areas: Nubbin Slough and Taylor Creek, and one isolated wetland/retention pond sites: Byrd Stockyard.
Public Lands – Stormwater Treatment Areas
Construction of a 780-acre Stormwater Treatment Area for Nubbin Slough is complete on the former New Palm/Newcomer Dairy. The purpose of this Stormwater Treatment Area is to divert and treat the majority of runoff from Nubbin Slough. This would be accomplished by delivering water from the slough to the east end of the Stormwater Treatment Area. The water would then flow through the treatment wetland and discharge back to the slough. The Nubbin Slough STA is not currently operational. .
