Middle Tampa Bay

The Riviera Bay / Middle Tampa Bay watershed is located on the eastern point of central Pinellas County, nearest to southern Hillsborough County.  The watershed has a surface area of 120 square miles, and drains 368 square miles. 
This is an area of geological transition where the physical and chemical gradients are pronounced.  Circulation in Middle Tampa Bay is good, although in wet years water quality is influenced by inadequate sewage treatment in Hillsborough County.
