This project could provide the City of Punta Gorda access to regional supplies during the dry season to meet water quality regulatory standards, aid the City in dealing with pending MFL's, and provide the Region with increased reliability and access to seasonally available supplies from the Shell Creek system. The Phase 1 project was previously considered for SWFWMD co-funding, but in the spring of 2007 it was suspended in favor of the Phase 1a pipeline project. The Phase 1 project is now being reconsidered due to the importance of a regional interconnection with the City of Punta Gorda and the fact that Phase 1, coupled with Phase 1a and 1b complete the total loop system interconnecting the Peace River Facility and the Shell Creek Facility. The Phase 1 project includes a total of six (6) miles of 24-inch diameter transmission main extending the Authority's 20-inch regional transmission line along U.S. 17 to the City of Punta Gorda Water Treatment Facility. The project also includes pumping, storage and chemica adjustment facilities. The estimated cost for the Phase I project is $11.5 million. The project design is complete and ready for bidding, with construction scheduled to begin as early as Spring 2011 and be completed approximately 12 months later. The Regional Integrated Loop System project provides a regional water transfer and delivery system for existing and future water sources within the Authority's service area. Development of this transmission system to will assist in achieving the regional resource management an water supply goals within the four county area including: maximizing use of surface water for public supply; provide rotational capacity and the ability to rest sources; providing reserve capacity for emergency transfers; limiting the development of groundwater in the Southern Wate Use Caution Area (SWUCA); and optimizing financial investments in water supply infrastructure on a regional basis. The use of alternative sources with the maximization of surface water for public supply in consistent with the District's Regional Water Supply Plan (SWFWMD 2006), the SWUCA recovery strategy, and the provisions of Senate Bill 444. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. The Authority is a wholesale supplier of potable water to the Customer Utilities of Charlotte, DeSoto, Manatee, and Sarasota Counties and the City of North Port.

PHASE I (PROJECT) provides valuable water resource benefits to each participant as it utilizes an alternative water source not currently being used to its maximum benefit to meet the water demands of a large industrial user in a cost effective manner. TECO is expanding its Polk Power Station in southwest Polk County creating a need for additional cooling water. The City of Lakeland has a secondary treated wastewater source that after being utilized as cooling water in its McIntosh Power Plant is ultimately discharged into the Alafia River. This PROJECT provides for the transmission, treatment and use of Lakeland s wastewater discharge for utilization by TECO as a cooling water source and possibly for other potential uses, thereby reducing the need for ground water in the Southern Water Use Caution Area (SWUCA), and reducing nutrient loading to the Alafia River. The PROJECT is the initial phase of a regional reclaimed water partnership initiative and will utilize approximately 5.2 million gallons per day (mgd) annual average daily flow (AADF) of wastewater discharge from the City of Lakeland and 1 mgd from Polk County. Lakeland has two wastewater treatment plants with a combined treatment capacity of mgd. The Glendale Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) has the capacity to treat 13.7 mgd of wastewater. The Northside WWTP has the capacity to treat 6.25 mgd of wastewater. In 2006, the WWTPs had an AADF of 7.13 mgd and 3.25 mgd, respectively. Of the mgd in combined flows, the McIntosh Power Plant used 5.11 mgd, and 1.85 mgd of blowdown water from the power plant was combined with the remaining 5.27 mgd of treated wastewater and discharged to Lakeland's wetland treatment system. (Source: FDEP Reuse Inventory, 2006) The 1400 acre Lakeland wetland treatment system is located east of Mulberry and north of State Road 60. The wetland system provides final treatment and storage of Lakelands wastewater effluent, prior to final discharge to the north prong of the Alafia River. The PROJECT will beneficially use the wastewater effluent currently discharged to the Alafia River from the Lakeland wetland treatment system. During the course of final design, the quality and quantity of the wastewater discharge from the wetlands will be determined for dry weather, wet weather and annual average scenarios. The PROJECT will include an intake structure and a reclaimed water high service pump station located at Lakeland's wetland treatment cell cluster. TECO estimates the flow will be approximately mgd dependant upon where it will be removed from the treatment cells to minimize water loss. The reclaimed water will be conveyed via transmission mains approximately 15 miles south to TECO's Polk Power Station. The preliminary plans are for a 20-inch transmission main from the wetlands to County Road 640 and a 30-inch transmission main from County Road 640 to the TECO Polk Power Station. In addition there 11

16 will be a line to Polk County that will originate at the Delivery Point identified initially on US 37 south of Carter Road and terminate at the pipeline connecting Polk Power Station in conjunction with the delivery of the Lakeland water source.

The result of these investigations will be estimated yield, recommended conceptual design and probable capital and O&M costs for a brackish groundwater supply at the Peace River Facility. Consultant selection has been completed, work is scheduled to begin on this feasibility study in early Calendar Year 2011, and be complete near the end of The Feasibility Study project budget is $1.8 million. Current demand projections show that 14 mgd in new supply capacity is needed by Supplies are envisioned to be developed in up to three (3) stages including up a minimum of 3 mgd by 2018, an additional 3 mgd by 2021 and an additional 8 mgd by The first 6 mgd of supply development is envisioned to include brackish water development at existing facilities such as the Peace River Facility. The final 8 mgd of development is, at this time, presumed to be a new alternative surface water supply. Total program cost for development of 14 mgd in new supply capacity is estimated at $256 million. Development costs are based on analysis from the Authority's 2009 Source Water Feasibility Study which estimated captal costs for new capacity at $12/gallon for brackish groundwater development and $23/gallon for new surface water supplies. The RRDP will objectives include: 1) Maximize conjunctive use of water supply resources to improve system reliability and resource protection; 2) Provide rotational and reserve capacity enabling improved resource management opportunities such as source resting; 3) Optimize the regional financial investment in water supply and transmission capacity. The use of alternative sources and improved conjunctive use for public supply is consistent with the District's Regional Water Supply Plan (December 2006), the SWUCA recovery strategy and Senate Bill 444.

This will allow the City to assist DeSoto County by accepting all unallocated water that they have reserved from the PRMRWSA and continue to provide flow through the DeSoto County pipelines which will eliminate flushing of large quantities which is required by DeSoto County to maintain water quality. The City currently has an interlocal agreement with DeSoto county to accept approximately 200,000 gpd of flush water from the County which is required to in order to increase proper utilization of the water resources within the District s jurisdiction by conserving approximately 200,000 gpd of water which is currently being flushed for water quality purposes. The project consist of construction of a new 250,000 ground storage tank which will be utilized for blending ion exchange treated groundwater from the City of Arcadia and DeSoto County water purchased from the PRMRWSA. Chemical feed facilities will be included for corrosion control and disinfection adjustment in order to maintain water quality within the distribution system. With the new storage tank and pumping facilities, the City will have the ability to accept the balance of the County s PRMWSA allocation until growth in the County is sufficient so that large flushing quantities is not required. This project will also offset water withdrawn from the Intermediate Aquifer until sufficient demands occur in DeSoto County which eliminate there need to flush large quantities of water. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances.

The project also involves an increase in the reclaimed water pumping capacity and storage at the West Port site which is necessary to consistently meet the reclaimed water demand of existing customers and to take full advantage of the storage capacity of the reclaimed water ASR well which is to be constructed on the site of the Rotonda WRF as part of Cooperative Project Number L215. Construction of Phase 2 completes the trunk line that will permit transmission of public access reclaimed water from the East Port WRF located in Central County to the Rotonda WRF located on the Cape Haze peninsula which is connected to the West Port WRF via an existing transmission main. The estimated total project cost is $2.8 million of which $2.5 million is for construction and $300,000 is for engineering. All costs are considered eligible for SWFWMD funding. The project is to be construction in three stages: Stage 1 construction will complete the transmission main to the West Port WRF; Stage 2 will increase the pumping capacity at West Port from the current 425 gpm to approximately 1,500 gpm and will also provide piping and metering to permit pumping of reclaimed water back across the Myakka River to users located in Central County on SR 776 whenever necessary; Stage 3 construction of the 5 MG reclaimed water storage pond will increase the storage capacity at West Port from 10 MG to 15 MG. Initially the project will provide the reliability needed to consistently supply reclaimed water to three existing 18 hole golf courses in West County that currently receive reclaimed water from either the West Port or Rotonda WRF's and utilize 774,000 gpd of reclaimed water and offset 579,000 of traditional supply from the intermediate aquifer. The estimated cost/benefit ratio for delivery of reclaimed water to the three golf courses calculated at an 8% annual interest rate over 30 years is $1.17 per thousand gallons (Kgal) offset. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. The Code of Laws and Ordinances for Charlotte County, Chapter 3.8, Article III, sets forth the application, declaration and enforcement responsibilities should a water shortage emergency occur. CCU staff is empowered to enforce existing watering restrictions to its customers through written warnings and Unauthorized Water Usage Charges, which appear on the customer's utility bill. Documentation of the violation and water conservation educational materials for customers are also part of this program. CCUs current Rate Resolution, approved by the Board of County Commissioners in 2006, includes a five-tiered conservation-based rate structure for residential and multi-family customers. Additionally, the Rate Resolution includes Emergency Water Conservation Rates, which increases the amount of the second through fifth rate tiers and may be enacted by the Board of County Commissioners in the event of a water shortage. Emergency Conservation Rates have been in effect since January 2007 in response to ongoing drought conditions in our region. In 2006, CCU selected a consultant to complete written Water Conservation plans for its main water distribution system and its Burnt Store 17

22 water distribution system. These plans were completed in early 2008 and submitted to both the Southwest Florida Water Management District and South Florida Water Management District. Additionally, CCU continues to emphasize water conservation education in the community through media outreach, proclamations, bill inserts, customer newsletters and educational outreach programs.

A 3 MGD Reverse Osmosis (RO) facility is proposed to offset Shell Creek withdrawal reductions to meet proposed MFL regulations and to also to reduce TDS concentration of surface water by blended with RO treated groundwater. A new groundwater source treated with reverse osmosis and blended with treated Shell Creek surface water is proposed to meet the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) maximum contamination level requirement specified in Florida Administrative Code Rule The groundwater source will provide a conjunctive use for periods of high TDS in the surface water or during periods of low flow withdrawal restrictions. The improved water supply will be available to the regional system through two proposed interconnects. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. Through the efforts of our community outreach and enforcement activities the City has experienced an estimated 15 to 20 percent reduction in outside water usage. The City has adopted an inclining tiered rate structure approved by the District to promote conservation. The Utilities Department will continue to investigate the feasibility of reuse to offset demand of potable supply and will continue to seek regional partnership opportunities for future water supply planning and development.
