The district also initiated formal peer review of the UORB hydrologic model (HSPF — Hydrological Simulation Program—Fortran).

The models, supporting documents, and peer review panel and stakeholder review comments regarding these models and documents can be accessed using the following link: Upper Ocklawaha Peer Review
