Summary
7-year annual average water budget error: < 3% 7-year period:Inflow: 71% surface flows, 23% seepage, 6% rainfall Outflow: 93% structure flow, 6% ET, <1% seepage

During the 7-year period, PSTA Cell produced annual outflow FWM TP concentrations at or below 13 ppb
7-year TP reduction using Seepage Concentration of 10 ppbLoad reduction percentage: 34%Concentration reduction percentage: 31%
PSTA performance results were not sensitive to rainfall TP concentration but were sensitive to the seepage TP concentration

Recommendations
Continue water quality sampling at the wells located along the West and East levees
Conduct an additional seepage calibration test with inflow gates closed to reflect conditions under the current target stage (10.5 ft. NGVD)
Update the water and TP budget analyses annually
