Water plays a critical role in sustaining Florida&rsquo;s environment and economic vitality, which are keys to a high quality of life. Florida must enhance and protect its domestic water supply while also meeting the water requirements of agriculture, horticulture, tourism, and industry, as well as the state&rsquo;s 22.6 million inhabitants and its natural systems, all without placing undue pressure on a finite resource.

TMDL is the calculation of the maximum amount of a pollutant allowed to enter a waterbody so that the waterbody will meet and continue to meet water quality standards for that particular pollutant. A TMDL determines a pollutant reduction target and allocates load reductions necessary to the source(s) of the pollutant.
Alternate terms: TMDL (total maximum daily load, TMDL (pollution)
