Total anticipated cost: $725,000 Silver Springs Marion County Silver Springs Shores Reuse to Spruce Creek Golf and Country Club

2 Marion County is proposing to provide up to 1.5 mgd of reuse water to the Spruce Creek Golf Course to off-set current groundwater use. Spruce Creek currently has a CUP for mgd for irrigation which could be retired due to receipt of reuse water. Project requires construction of a transmission main from the Silver Springs Shores WWTP to the golf course. Could also provide an opportunity to connect with the City of Belleview for reclaimed water. Total anticipated cost: $3,190,000 Marion County Silver Springs Elimination of Off-line Plants Marion County is proposing to acquire non-compliant, off-line wasterwater treatment plants and route sewage to advanced waste water treatment (AWT) facility, which is part of Marion County Utilities. Total anticipated cost: $835,000 Marion County Silver Springs Storm water Retrofit Marion County proposes to augment stormwater ponds with liners, conversion to wetlands, soil amendments to provide additional nitrate treatment within a 2 square mile radius in the Silver Spring springshed. The project will be cooperatively funded by the FDEP, SWFWMD, SJRWMD, and Marion County. Total anticipated cost: $900,000 Blue Spring (Volusia) Deltona Lakes Lake Monroe Pump Station and Treatment Facility The project includes construction of a 4-mgd treatment system at the Deltona Lakes Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) supply to treat water from the St. Johns River. The treated water will be used to augment reclaimed water supplies only, therefore the treatment process will not produce a concentrate that requires discharge. Offset to groundwater use by river water provides benefits to flows in Blue Spring. An intake structure with pump station is proposed at the withdrawal point on the St. Johns River, and transmission main to the WRF for treatment. Ground storage and high service pumping facilities are proposed at the WRF after treatment, to convey the reclaimed water to aquifer recharge facilities and to the reuse system to meet irrigation demands.

5 District-wide Springs Water Quality and Natural Systems Investigation Many springs in the District have experienced declines in discharge, deterioration of water quality, and loss of biological habitat. This project represents a multi-disciplinary approach that includes a combination of monitoring, modeling, and scientific investigation necessary to address these spring issues. Several Bureaus will coordinate these efforts to provide a comprehensive investigation in the causal effects on spring declines, changes in water quality, and loss of habitat. Management agencies are required to determine what actions can most cost-effectively ameliorate these changes. This project seeks to understand the hydrologic/biological/ecological mechanisms at work and identify cost-effective management actions. The project approach will incorporate the following components: environment sciences biological assessment and monitoring, hydrologic data collection and monitoring, groundwater flow and transport modeling, and surface water hydraulic and hydrodynamic modeling. Total anticipated cost: $3,525,000 Suwannee River Water Management District Otter Spring and Hart Spring Restorations (Gilchrist County): Restoration of spring vent and run areas at these high public use springs (removal of sediments, enhancing flow and recreational opportunities): $450,000 Construction of wastewater transmission lines from both locations to remove RV sites and recreational facilities from septic systems adjacent to the both springs (water quality loading reduction/water quality improvement, located within the impaired Suwannee River basin) $2,500,000 Pot Spring Restoration (Hamilton County; District lands): Pot Spring is a second magnitude spring along the Withlacoochee River on District land. A combination of human use and river erosion has begun to erode the bank of the spring boil causing harm to both the spring and the existing wooden access platform. Request $450,000 to fix existing erosion problems and repair access platform at this popular spring.

6 Santa Fe River Basin, including Ichetucknee Springs and the springs along the Santa Fe River (multiple counties): Isotope and chemical signatures in the majority of springs and wells in the Santa Fe basin indicate that the nitrate in the water is from inorganic fertilizers. This suggests that inorganic fertilizer is the main source of nitrate pollution in the Santa Fe River to be addressed (FDEP BMAP 2012). FDEP has provided a $900,000 grant to SRWMD to fund the implementation and retrofitting of agricultural irrigation systems to improve both irrigation efficiency and nutrient pollution within the Santa Fe and Middle Suwannee basins. This program is currently enrolling participants and it is anticipated that available funding will be allocated in early Request $2,000,000 in additional funding for continuation of this program in the Santa Fe basin alone. Rose Spring Run Restoration (City of Perry, Taylor County): As part of City revitalization, restoration of a channelized spring run (Rose Spring Run/Creek) to provide water quality, flood attenuation and natural system benefits as part of a downtown revitalization project. $600,000 Lake City Wastewater Management (Columbia County; Santa Fe River/Springs BMAP): Wastewater reuse facility upgrades, which may include distribution systems, water treatment system including constructed wetlands and aquifer replenishment at City sprayfield. $4,500,000 Northwest Florida Water Management District Jackson Blue Spring, Jackson County (1 st Mag.
