A. Amendment to the Collier County Water-Sewer District Utilities Standards Manual [Eric Fey]
Minutes approval
Mr. Mitchell moved to approve the minutes of the Subcommittee meeting. Second by Mr.
Dunnavant. Carried unanimously.
Mr. Fey and Mr. Chmelik presented the following documents:
• “Collier County Water-Sewer District Utilities Standards Manual Update”
• “ Table of Revisions”
• “Technical Specifications”
• “Collier County Water-Sewer District Utilities Department Critical Infrastructure Resiliency
Enhancements”
• “Collier County Water-Sewer District Utilities Standards Manual Update - Changes from
5/21/2018 to 5/30/2018”
They noted the revised Utilities Standards Manual is a culmination of 3 years work and is a product
of input from Staff, Consultants and the Subcommittee.
June 6, 2018

Committee discussion ensued with Subcommittee Members voicing concern on the process for
developing the proposed changes to the Manual. The format for the process does not promote
adequate input from the public and the Subcommittee has no voting power for any proposed
recommended changes. Additional comments noted:
• As an example, following the May 21, 2018 Subcommittee meeting, Staff disseminated the
final draft with changes made outside the meeting 24 – 48 hours before the DSAC meeting.
A 60-day comment period should be implemented.
• The process does not allow ample time for interested parties or Subcommittee to review the
new changes (i.e. “Collier County Water-Sewer District Utilities Standards Manual Update -
Changes from 5/21/2018 to 5/30/2018”) and provide comments.
• Another issue brought to light by some consultants is Staff may be enforcing the proposed
requirements before they have been implemented and the standards should not become
effective for 30 – 60 days after adoption.
• The System Resiliency Enhancements Section of the “Collier County Water-Sewer District
Utilities Department Critical Infrastructure Resiliency Enhancements” contain many
features that impact landscaping and may need to be reviewed by those in the industry.
Mr. Chmelik and Mr. Fey noted:
• There were monthly discussion groups scheduled (convened approximately 50 percent of the
time) which sought input on the changes and were open to the public.
• One option is to return the documents to the Subcommittee for further review and allow a 60-
day comment period as requested.
• They are not aware of Staff implementing any standards before they have been adopted.
• Many of the items identified in the landscaping portions of the “Collier County Water-Sewer
District Utilities Department Critical Infrastructure Resiliency Enhancements” are
clarifications of existing requirements.
The Committee noted it may be feasible to recommend the standards be adopted subject to a further
review of certain areas of the “Collier County Water-Sewer District Utilities Department Critical
Infrastructure Resiliency Enhancements” and “Collier County Water-Sewer District Utilities
Standards Manual Update - Changes from 5/21/2018 to 5/30/2018”) and allow Staff to move
forward with their endeavor.
Mr. Mitchell moved to recommend the Board of County Commissioners incorporate “Collier
County Water-Sewer District Utilities Department Critical Infrastructure Resiliency
Enhancements” into the proposed Collier County Water-Sewer District Utilities Standards
Manual Update subject to the following:
1. Incorporating Items 1 - 5 listed as “Applicable to existing wastewater pump (lift) stations.”
2. Incorporating Items 1 – 4 listed as “Applicable to new wastewater pump (lift) stations.”
3. Postpone incorporating items 1 – 6 listed as “System Resiliency Enhancements” until
further discussion occurs on the items.
Second by Mr. Dunnavant. Carried unanimously 11 – 0.
Mr. Dunnavant moved to recommend the Board of County Commissioners adopt the proposed
Collier County Water-Sewer District Utilities Standards Manual Update including the items listed
in the above action and incorporate the requirements listed in the document “Collier County
June 6, 2018
5
Water-Sewer District Utilities Standards Manual Update - Changes from 5/21/2018 to 5/30/2018”
subject to the following:
1. The text colored red and orange listed in the 5/21/2018 – 5/30/2018 document not be
incorporated into the Utilities Manual and subject to further discussion.
2. The proposed Utilities Manual be implemented 60 days after adoption.
3. Staff allow a 60 day comment period for any proposed future modifications to the Utilities
Manual.
Second by Mr. Foley. Carried unanimously 11 – 0.

A. Follow-up on LDC Amendments [Jeremy Frantz]
5.05.05: Permanent emergency generators and transfer switches for gas stations
LDC SECTIONS: 5.05.05 Facilities with Fuel Pumps
SUMMARY: The Amendment clarifies the requirements to install a generator transfer switch at gas
station facilities and introduces the requirement to install a permanent emergency generator.
Mr. Summers and Mr. Frantz presented the proposed amendment noting:
• There are no changes to the version reviewed at the May 2, 2018 DSAC meeting, however
the map “Southwest Florida Regional Planning Council Evacuation Routes” is provided for
information purposes based on questions from the previous meeting on the locations
impacted by the proposed requirement.
• The Collier County Planning Commission recommended the proposed amendment be
adopted.
Committee discussion occurred noting:
• The designations (State, Federal, etc.) of the various evacuation routes are not clear on the
map.
• The names of some roads are not identified on the document and it is not clear which
locations will be impacted by the proposed amendment.
They expressed similar concerns brought forth at the previous meeting that the requirements may be
overreaching and create a financial burden on the existing smaller, privately owned establishments in
the County who propose renovations to their facilities.
Mr. Dunnavant left at 4:35pm
Mr. Waldrop left at 4:40pm
Mr. Mulhere moved to recommend the Board of County Commissioners approve the proposed
amendment subject it being applicable to establishments with more than 4 pumps and 8 filling
stations.
The Committee noted the same motion failed at the previous meeting.
Mr. Mulhere withdrew the motion.
Mr. Mulhere moved to recommend the Board of County Commissioners adopt the proposed
amendment subject to the requirements applying to the following establishments:
1. Those new or existing having more than 4 pumps or 8 filling stations or;
2. Those located within ½ mile of a State or Federal evacuation route.
June 6, 2018

Motion failed 4 “yes” and 5 “no.” Ms. Spurgeon DeJohn, Mr. Boughton, Mr. Mitchell, Mr.
Espinar and Mr. Sterk voted “no.”
Staff noted the Collier County Fire Chiefs Association recommended the proposed amendments
heard at the previous meeting for permanent emergency generators for group housing and the one
discussed today for permanent emergency generators and transfer switches for gas stations be
adopted by the Board of County Commissioners.

DESIGN CRITERIA Page 5 of 18
backflow assemblies shall be located within a County Utility Easement (CUE), which shall be
located outside of, but contiguous to, the road Right-Of-Way (ROW).
Deviations from these design parameters shall only be approved in cases where such installations
can be shown to be necessary in order to comply with minimum chlorine residuals or other FDEP
quality parameters, unless otherwise approved by the County Manager or designee. In such
cases, the water main shall be located within a separate tract of land or CUE dedicated to the
Water-Sewer District. Such tracts shall be delineated with fencing, landscaping, signage,
pavement, or other methods determined to be acceptable to the Water-Sewer District. All such
installations shall require approval from the Water-Sewer District. In addition, an agreement shall
be provided authorizing the COUNTY to traverse all private property outside of the CUE for the
purpose of access, maintenance, repair, and/or replacement of such main. The agreement shall
also hold the COUNTY harmless for any damage to the private property resulting from the
COUNTY’s maintenance, repair and/or replacement activities within or outside of the CUE.
The encasement of potable water mains in concrete shall only be made after review and approval
by the County Manager or designee.
2.2.3 Valves Locations
Valves shall be provided at all intersections and branches in sufficient numbers as to allow for
zone isolation of distribution areas in order to limit impacts of line breaks and service disruptions
to customers. In-line gate valves shall be provided in accordance with AWWA requirements and
at no greater than 1,000 foot intervals when no other valves exist within internal distribution
systems. All gate valves 20 inches and smaller shall be of the resilient-seated wedge type,
conforming to AWWA C509 or C515, or latest revisions thereof. All gate valves or plug valves 30
16 inches or larger shall have a concrete slab placed under the valve to help distribute the total
weight of the valve and reduce line sagging. See Technical Specifications 331200 2.3.A.2. All
valves shall be furnished with valve boxes extending to finished grade as shown in the Utilities
Detail Drawings (G-7).
2.3 Conflict Crossings
All storm sewer, non-potable irrigation water mains, and wastewater transmission system conflicts
with water systems or portion(s) thereof that must be crossed shall be performed using AWWA
C900 Class 200 or C905 Class 235 PVC with ductile iron fittings. All fittings shall be adequately
restrained using retainer glands, stainless steel rods, or see County Approved Product List,
Appendix F. Transitional fittings, when approved by the County Manager or designee, shall be
located as close to the point of conflict as possible. Air release assemblies shall be provided as
specified in Subsection 2.7 herein, below. Gradual deflection of the water line in lieu of using
fittings to clear the conflict shall not be permitted if cover exceeds five feet. A minimum vertical
clearance of 18 inches shall be provided between the water main and bottom of conflict. A
deviation form will not be required for separation of sewer laterals and potable water pipeline.
Maximum depth of 48 inches below final grade is exempt when dipping under conflicts in which
case the water main shall be returned to normal depth within 10 feet on either side of the conflict
or as soon as possible using a fitting of 45 degrees or less.
2.3.1 Subaqueous Canal Crossings
Potable and non-potable subaqueous crossings shall be designed to a minimum depth of 36
inches below the design or actual bottom, whichever is deeper, of a canal and other dredged
COLLIER COUNTY
DESIGN CRITERIA Page 14 of 18
3.2.2 Design of Pipeline Size and Location
Force mains shall be sized to provide a desired flushing velocity of two and one-half feet per
second with a minimum allowable velocity of two feet per second. The maximum allowable
velocity in wastewater force mains is six feet per second. The minimum size force main conveyed
to the CCWSD shall be four inches in diameter. Approved mechanical thrust restraints are
required at pipe joints where specified in the Utility Standards.
Minimum cover for force mains shall be 30 inches. Maximum cover shall be 48 inches after final
project grading is complete except when dipping under conflicts in which case the force main shall
be returned to normal depth within 10 feet on either side of the conflict or as soon as possible
using a fitting of 45 degrees or less. The design engineer shall strive to minimize the number and
frequency of dips (maintaining a horizontal run line through intermittent grade changes, by
deviation). An air release valve is required at all dips. Engineers should evaluate possibilities of
lowering storm drainage piping or dipping potable water and non-potable irrigation water main to
avoid dips in the force main.
When force mains are interconnected with a gravity sewer system, for transmission purposes
through that system, interconnection shall be as shown in the Utility Standard Drawings. No force
main laterals shall be core bored into manholes.
3.2.3 Valves
All connections of privately-owned and maintained wastewater force mains to the Wastewater
Department’s force mains shall be connected through a check valve housed in a structure as
shown in the Utilities Detail Drawings which shall allow performance of required maintenance,
and shall be owned and maintained by the property owner.
Sufficient plug valves shall be provided to allow for zone isolation of wastewater transmission
areas in order to limit the impact of line breaks. In-line plug valves shall be provided at no greater
than 1,000 foot intervals per COUNTY requirements.All plug valves 16 inches or larger shall
have a concrete slab underneath to distribute the total weight of the valve. See Technical
Specification 333313 for reference.
3.2.4 Force Main Extension Stubs
All main-line extension stubs to future developments and/or parcels shall terminate in a stub-out
if it is part of a phased project. The stub-out shall end with a valve and cap/plug.
3.2.5 Air Release Assemblies
Air release assemblies shall be provided at all high points and on the upstream side of conflict
crossings at which the force main passes under the conflict (unless it can be demonstrated by
hydraulic analysis that air pockets will not accumulate at individual high points). A high point is
defined by the hydraulic gradient and is considered the upper end of any pipe segment that slopes
up to the hydraulic gradient or runs parallel to it. Air valves (see County Approved Product List,
Appendix F) utilized on raw sewage facilities shall be designed and manufactured specifically for
use with domestic sewage. The design engineer shall review and apply the pertinent provisions
of AWWA-C512 and AWWA Manual of Water Supply Practices M51, “Air-Release, Air Vacuum,
and Combination Air Valves”. When installed, the air valve shall be provided with a shut-off valve

3.3 Wastewater Pump Stations
Wastewater pump stations shall be designed and constructed in accordance with FDEP
regulatory requirements, Section 2 Technical Specifications, National Electrical Code (NEC)
Requirements, and Section 3 Utilities Detail Drawings. A scaled wastewater pump station plan
shall be included on the engineer’s construction drawings.
Pump Station wetwells shall be designed to withstand flotation forces with the assumption that
the structures are empty and ground/flood water elevation is at the top of the structures. The
design shall consider the potential for damage or interruption of operation due to flooding. Pump
station structures and electrical and mechanical equipment shall be designed to be protected from
physical damage by the 100-year flood event. Pump stations shall be designed to remain fully
operational and accessible during the 25-year flood event. Pump stations shall be designed to
avoid operational problems from the accumulation of grit.
Pump stations shall be designed to be readily accessible by maintenance vehicles, including
pumper trucks, during all weather conditions. Pump stations shall be designed and located on
the site to minimize adverse effects from odors, noise, and lighting. Pump stations shall be
located on the site to have a minimum separation of 20 feet from the edge of the CUE for the
pump station to edge of a body of water and 15 feet from the edge of the CUE for the pump station
to a residential structure (including appurtenances).
The effective volume of wet wells shall be based on design average flows and a filling time not to
exceed 30 minutes unless the facility is designed to provide flow equalization. The pump
manufacturer’s duty cycle recommendations shall be utilized in selecting the minimum cycling
time. Pump stations requiring a pump motor of twenty horsepower or greater shall operate by a
VFD (variable frequency drive) that varies the operating speed of the pump based on wet well
water levels. Pump stations shall have a compacted earth berm on three sides with 3:1 slopes to
divert liquid toward the ROW. Top of berm shall be 12 inches wide and six inches higher than
back of curb (with curb) or edge of pavement (without curb). Minimum berm height shall be six
inches.
When a pump station has a peak design flow coming into the station greater than 500 gpm,
contact Public Utilities Engineering and Project Management Department for specifications.
A pump station that is connected directly to the County transmission force main from a
development (Community Pump Station) and any pump station that receives flow from one or
more upstream pump stations or discharges through a force main 12 inches or larger (see FAC
62-604.400 (2)(a)1) shall have uninterrupted pumping capability (standby diesel pump or
generator) with three days of fuel storage (compliant with Technical Specification 263213) and a
concrete pad for a future odor control system.
Except for grinder pump stations, which require Deviation approval, no new private pump stations
are allowed. Grinder pump stations are required to have a standard generator receptacle. All
other pump stations shall conform to these standards and shall be conveyed to the Collier County
Water-Sewer District in accordance with the utilities conveyance policies and procedures outlined
in the Collier County Utilities Standards and Procedures Ordinance (Ord. No. 2004-31 as
amended).

H. Preserve standards.
1.Design standards.
f. Off-site vegetation retention.
Purpose and Intent. The purpose of this subsection f is to identify
the criteria to satisfy on-site preserve requirements off site. The
intent of the on-site preserve requirement is to retain, maintain,
and preserve existing native vegetation on site as provided for in
the Conservation and Coastal Management Element of the GMP.
However, in limited situations on-site preserve may be considered
less viable as a functional preserve if it is 21,780 square feet (one-
half acre) or less and isolated. Therefore, in limited situations,
providing for a preserve off site can achieve the goals and
objectives of the GMP. This section shall not apply to lands
located within the RLSA or RFMU districts.
i. Applicability. A property owner may-request that all or a portion of
the Collier County on site native vegetation preservation retention
and subject to the restrictions listed below.

Words struck through are deleted, words underlined are added
than one acre in size.
c)Essential service facilities other than parks, for any size
preserves.
d) Preserves les., than on acre in size
of native vegetation retention allowed offsite shall be equal
to the percent of affordable housing units, without limitation
as to size of the preserve.
f}Existing or proposed preserves with 75 percent or more
coverage with exotic vegetation. Existing preserves not
preserve shall mitigate off site at a ratio of 2 to 1.
g) Created preserves which do not meet the success criteria
in 3.05.07 H.1.e.viii or where preserves have not been
planted in a manner which mimics a natural plant
community.
h) Preserves which do not meet the minimum dimensional
requirements of this section.
f)Portions of preserves located within platted single family
lots.
j)Right of Way acquisitions to be conveyed or in the process
of being conveyed to the County by non governmental
construction, including ancillary drainage facilities, and
including utilities within the right of way acquisition area.
k) All criteria listed for created preserves.
Applicability and prohibitions. Except where it is prohibited,
applicants may request that the on-site native vegetation retention
requirement be satisfied in full off site where the native vegetation
requirement is 21,780 square feet (one-half acre) or less, and the
preserves have not been identified on an approved development

on artificially created shorelines), coastal dune and strand
environments, and listed species habitat or corridors per
the requirements or recommendations of the FFWCC or
USFWS, - -e - .
vegetation preservation retention requirement provided

Elevation Certificate Checklist for Collier County
The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) Elevation Certificate (EC) (FEMA form 086-0-33) is an administrative tool
of the NFIP which is to be used to provide elevation information necessary to ensure compliance with community
floodplain management ordinances, to determine the proper insurance premium rate, or support a request for a
Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) or a Letter of Map Amendment based on fill (LOMR-F). This document is
referenced in the NFIP Flood Insurance Manual (Special Certifications Section).
Collier County requires an Under Construction and a Finished Construction Elevation Certificate are submitted. The
Under Construction Elevation Certificate should be submitted simultaneously with the 10-day spot survey. Sections A
and B must be completed in full, as shown on the approved construction plans. Section C should include only those

must be provided in C2d). Pictures capturing of all sides of the building are required and must be labeled (e.g. front,
rear, right side, left side). Prior to obtaining County approval of the Under Construction Elevation Certificate, the
permit holder’s construction activities are at his/her own risk. Note: Manufactured Homes are not required to submit
an Under Construction Elevation Certificate.
A “Finished Construction” elevation certificate is required after all of the machinery equipment has been installed and
the grading around the building has been completed. It is required prior to issuance of the certificate of occupancy or
certificate of completion.

of at least 1 of the following machinery and equipment items: elevators and their associated equipment, pool
heaters, hot water heaters, generators, ductwork for Manufactured Homes, air conditioners in an attached garage or
enclosure or on an open utility platform that provides utility services for the building, etc. Note that elevations for
these specific machinery and equipment items are required in order to rate the building for flood insurance. Local
floodplain management officials are required to ensure that all machinery and equipment servicing the building are
protected from flooding. If the machinery and/or equipment is mounted to a wall, pile, etc., enter the platform
elevation of the machinery and/or equipment. Indicate machinery/equipment type and its general location, e.g., on
floor inside garage or on platform affixed to exterior wall in Section D, Comments. If this item does not apply to the
building, enter "N/A" for not applicable.
Item C2f-g). Lowest adjacent (finished) grade next to building (LAG). g. Enter the elevation of the ground, sidewalk,
or patio slab immediately next to the building. This measurement must be to the nearest tenth of a foot if this
