This 201 Facilities Plan provides a further update of the wastewater management alternatives for the county and recommends a 20-year plan for implementation. One of the goals of a 201 Facilities Plan Update is to optimize the potential for obtaining State Revolving Fund (SRF) Iow interest loan to finance the wastewater management program. This plan is provided for the planning period from 1997 to 2017 and is consistent with the adopted county Comprehensive Plan. The Marco Island service area is not included in this update and is being partitioned from the update since it is a separate water and sewer district. Wastcwater treatment in the Marco Island service area is currently provided by Southern Stat~s Utilities, 1.2 Organization of Report This report has been divided into ten sections as summarized below. Section 1' Executive Summary: Summarizes wastewater management planning and the recommended alternative. Section 2: Introduction: C~neral information related to county's Comprehensive Plan, purpose and scope of' report, and planning background information on the development of Collier County and the utility system. In addition, general information related to wastcwater management planning and water quality goals and objectives is included. Section 3: Objectives and Goals: Regulatory considerations including water quality treatment requirements, effluent disposal requirements, residuals disposal considerations and permit'ting concerns ar~ presented in this section. Camp Dresser & McKee GOL201.Ol 7tl 4~7 1-1 Section 4: Section 5: Section 6: Section 7: Section g: Section 9: Section I Execu#ve Summary Summary of Environmental Considerations: This section contains int'ormation related to soils, hydrology and hydrogeology, climate, land use, wildlife, cultural resources and air quality in the planning area. Current Situation: Describes existing population, wastewater collection, transmission, effluent disposal and residuals management systems. Future Considerations: Projects future population and wastewater flows, land use, water quality, and residuals production throughout the planning period. Wastewater Management Alternatives: Development ofwaslewater management alternatives including transmission, treatment, and effluent disposal. Plan Selection: Evaluation of alternatives including economic, environmental, social, and implementation considerations and recommendation of selected plan. Description of Selected Plan: Describes in detail the recommended management plan, provides a financial plan for funding the plan which outlines total project costs and provides annual cost to customers. Section 10: Implementation Plan: Outlines institutional arrangements, an implementation schedule, an overview of'the new system, and a capital financing plan. 1.3 Summary of Recommended Plan Based upon the existing conditions in Collier County and the projected wastewater flows, three alternatives have been considered. Camp Dresser & McKee co~-~.o~ ?/14~? 1-2 Alternative I: No Action: The county will continue to operate the existing wastewater system with no changes in capacity or treatment level. Alternative II: Two Regional Treatment Plants: The county will continue to operate the two existing treatment plants with expansion to provide service throughout the planning period. This alternative includes the removal of package wastewater treatment plants bom service. Alternative III: Two Regional Interconnected Treatment Plants: The county will continue to operate the two existing treatment plants and to construct an interconnect pipeline to allow transfer of raw wastewater between the two treatment facilities. This alternative also provides for the removal of package treatment plants from service. Based upon the cost effective analysis (present worth) and consideration of environmental and social concerns as well as the ease ofimplementation of the alternatives, the recommended plan is Alternative II. Phase I of the recommended plan is expected to be completed and operational by 2002. The total capital costs of Phase I are estimated to be approximately $35.4 million which includes $23.9 million for expansion of the North County Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility (NCRWWTF). Phases II, III and IV will be implemented in accordance with the schedule established in Section 10 and is expected to be fully implemented by the year 2017. Table 1-1 provides a list of the proposed projects for Phase I through IV.

Camp Dresser & McKee COL201 TABLE 1.01 7/15/97 1-4 12C 5 Section 2 Introduction 2.1 General 201 Facilities Plans are required by the State of Florida as part of the State Revolving Fund (SRF) Iow interest loan program, originated as part of Public Law 92-500, Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972. The loan money available is to provide assistance for construction of wastewater collection, treatment, and effluent disposal facilities. Collier County originally prepared a 201 Facilities Plan in 1978, and updated it in 1986 and 1996. This update is based upon the original 201 Facilities Plan, the 1986 and 1996 updates, and the Collier County Comprehensive Plan. This 201 Facilities Plan Update is consistent with the Collier County Comprehensive Plan (adopted Januaz7 1989). The~e are general objectives and goals inherent in a 201 Facilities Plan and specific objectives and goals which have been identified by the county for wastewater management. Those that are general in nature include the following: · Improve and enhance the existing quality of the surf'ace water bodies and the groundwater, · Provide for future needs in the planning area consistent with approved and adopted local land use plans; · Az~alyze alternatives for collecting, treating and disposing of'wastewater and residual disposal with respect to total costs, environmental impact, social concerns, and ease of'implementation; · Optimize the existing treatment system by evaluating removal efficiencies and performance criteria of'existing facilities; · Optimize the existing disposal system by evaluating applicable water quality standards, potential for reuse, and recycling; · Develop an implementation plan that is equitable and identify the county department to implement the plan. Camp Dre~r & McKee 2-1 CCX..201.~2 7/11~7 12C 5 ,Sect/on 2 In addition to the general objectives and goals, specific guidelines were set forth by the Collier County Comprehensive Plan and identified in the previous 201 Facilities Plan Updates (1986 and 1996). These included the following goals: !. To reduce water pollution caused by sewage and sludge disposal. 2. Assess the impact that sewage and sludge disposal are hav~ng upon Collier County's water 3. Accomplish the county's goals in the most cost effective manner, and 4. Identify plans and programs that are needed to protect the county's water resources from sources of pollution other than sewage and sludge. 2.2 Purpose and Scope Collier County has initiated implementation of the wastewater management goal of providing wastewater service to help the preservation of surface water quality and groundwater resources. Regional wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal systems will provide the capability to accommodate population growth and will eliminate a great number of existing and/or potential pollution sources throughout the planning area. As the initial eft'on to meet the county's wastewater management goals and obtain eligibility for SRF Iow interest loans, Camp Dresser &: McKee Inc. (CDM) has been retained by Collier County to prepare this 201 Facilities Plan Update. The scope of this 201 Facilities Plan Update includes a detailed evaluation and presentation of the proposed facilities and improvements required for planning a wastewater treatment system to meet the needs of Collier County to the year 2017, including: Determination of applicable design flows and effluent quality requirements for the proposed wastcwater treatment facilities or expansion to existing facilities to meet the year 2017 needs.

The area consists of approximately 261 square miles including the bays and estuaries. The planning area is generally bounded on the north by Lee County, on the west and south by the Gulf of Mexico, and on the east by the service area boundary as shown in Figure 2-I. The City of Naples is not within the study area. Three regional service areas are located within the 201 Planning Area. These include the North, South and Marco Island Service Areas. The Marco Island Service area is not included in this 201 Update and is being partitioned from the update since it is a separate water and sewer district with wastewater treatment currently being provided by Southern States Utilities. In the decade of the 80's, Collier County experienced rapid population growth requiring additional wastewater services. These services were provided by the county through extension of their Camp Dresser & McXee ca.:o~ ?ns~ 2-3 Z Z Comp Drm, sm~ & IdcKee 201 COLLIER COUNTY 201 rACILITI£$ PLAN UPDATE PLANNING AREA AND LOCATION MAP No. 2-1 120 5 $~ 2 collection system and through the use of septic tank systems and package wastewater treatment plants. Three county-owned wastewater treatment facilities, 10 package wastewater treatment plants, two private utility wastewater treatment facilities, and 900 septic systems are currently located in the North and South County Regional service areas, The projects needed for utility expansion and operation will be the responsibility of Collier County and various private and investor owned utilities. Private utilities are only permitted until county wastewatcr facilities are available and economically feasible or as specifically identified by the county. 2.3.1 Wastewater Management Planning In order to comply with the direction of the Collier County Board of County Commissioners and adopted Comprehensive Plan, the county is proceeding with planning a wastewater management program for the county through 2017. This 201 Facilities Plan Update contains evaluations of wastewater management ahematives and implementation procedures including collection, transmission, treatment, effluent disposal, and residuals management. Once the management plan outlined in this report is adopted by the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC), design, FDEP eligibility for SRF loans, and implementation can proceed. The county has committed to implementing a wastcwatcr management plan to provide wastcwatcr service and pursue SRF eligibility for areas of the county which are identified in the 20] Facilities Plan Update. 2.4 Water Quality Goals and Management Objectives The objectives of the county's wastewater management plan are outlined in Section 2. !. These goals and objectives have been identified in order to preserve thc environmental quality of'Collier County. In order to carry out the objective of maintaining water quality in the study area, the applicable Camp Dresser & McKee 5 standards for the surface water must be identified. The State of Florida has est~tblished standards for different classifications of water bodies based upon their usage. Surface water quality standards have been published by FDEP and are included in Chapter 62-302 FAC. In Collier County, the following water bodies are classified as Class II: Cocohatchee River, connecting waterways from Wiggins Pass south to Doctor's Bay, Dollar Bay, Inner and Outer Clam Bay, Inner and Outer Doctor's Bay, Little Hie'cory Bay, Wiggins Pass, and tidal bays and passes including portions of Naples Bay, Rookeq~ Bay and Ten Thousand Islands. The State of Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services 0-iRS) has identified septic tanks in high population density areas as potential sources of groundwater and surface water contamination. In a report titled "Onsite Sewage Disposal System (OSDS) Research in Florida" (FIRS, 1989), contaminants were detected in groundwater samples taken beneath existing subdivisions in areas where poor soil conditions existed. In the March 1993 update to this same report, I-IRS stated: "large areas of Florida have soil conditions unsuitable for conventional OSDS designs. Approximately 74 percent of state soils have severe or very severe limitations for conventional OSDS designs based on USDA Soil Conservation Services (SCS) criteria. The most common limiting conditions is seasonal wetness or shallow groundwater. Slowly permeable soils, shallow bedrock, and periodic flooding are other limiting conditions frequently encountered." The report's summary ot' results £urther stated: · Many of these areas have sandy soils with relatively high water tables, where the use of conventional OSDS will be prohibited. Groundwater modeling of OSDS impacts from high density subdivisions indicates a potential for nitrate contamination to exceed the groundwater standard down gradient of the subdivisions. Camp Dresser & McKee c~.~ z~ 2-5 12C 5 Most of the soil conditions and groundwater conditions in Collier County are not conducive to the use of OSDS, particularly ns the population densities increase. Areas near the coast which are tidally influenced are particularly susceptible to detrimental impacts of OSDS. In areas which are currently not served by central sewers, the county has restricted development to a density which is acceptable to allow service by septic tank systems. 2.5 Public Education Collier County bas implemented several programs that provide the public education regarding water quality and conservation issues. In addition to implementation of an urban reuse system to conserve the area's potable water supplies, the county luts included xeriscaping current road beautification projects. A display at the county museum has been set up to educate the public on the water conservation benefits ofuslng xeriscaping. The county has also developed a water conservation brochure and children activity booklets to educate the public on water conservation. Copies of these brochures and booklets are provided in Appendix A. Camp Dresser & McKee GOi.2~1.D2 7;11/g7 12(3 5( Section 3 Objectives and Goals 3.1 General Regulatory limitations imposed on wastewater effluent and sludge disposal are of'primary concern to local utilities and to planners and design engineers who usist in developing facilities to comply with these regulations. This section describes the regulatory constraints which affect options for disposal of residuals and effluent as well as treatment requirements. 3.2 Minimum Wastewater Treatment Requirements Chapter 403, Florida Statutes, Part I, Pollution Control, states the minimum requirements and goals for the abatement of water pollution in the State of Florida. Section 3.03.021(2) of the Florida Air and Water Pollution Control Act declares the public policy of this state: ...to conserve the waters of the state smd to protect, maintain, and improve the quality thereof for public water supplies, for thc propagation ofwildlife, fish, and other aquatic life, and for domestic, agricultural, industrial, recreational, and other beneficial uses, and to provide that no wastes be · discharged into any waters of the state without first being given the degree of treatment necessary to protect the beneficial uses of such water. Prior to March 1, 1979, the effluent requirements were given in Chapter 17-30 of the Florida Administrative Code (FAC); however, these requirements have been reassigned to Chapter 62-600. Chapter 62-600.420 requires a minimum of secondary treatment for wastewater, and additional levels ofwaste treatment, if necessary and ordered by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FI3EP). Minimum secondary treatment requirements for existing facilities are: 20 mg/1 each of carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand (CBODs) and total suspended solids (TSS). Secondary treatment for new or modified facilities is defined as: alter disinfection, a minimum of~3 percent Camp Dresser & McKee 3-1 C~i.2Ol ~ 7fl1~7 12[; Sect~n 3 Objec~es and Goals removal of CBODs and TSS or not more than 20 mg/I CBOD5 and 20 mg/I TSS, whichever is more stringent. Additional levels of treatment are defined as: after disinfection, not more than $ mg/1 TSS and I0 rog/1 Total Nitrogen as N. Advanced secondary treatment (AST) requires secondary treatment with filtration and high level disinfection. These limits are specified for discharges from all facilities except those of underground injection and ocean outfalls. Basic disinfection results in not more than 200 fecal coliform per 100 nd of effluent sample. H~gh-level disinfection must result in an effluent with undetectable fecal coliform. Intermediate disinfection must result in not more than 14 most probable number fecal coliform per 100 ml ofeffluent sample. The pH value after disinfection shall be within the range of 6.0 to 8.5. The n~nimum treatment requirements for treatment facilities are based to a large extent upon the intended disposal method for the effluent and residuals generated by the treatment facility. Chapter 62-600 FAC provides general guidelines for minimum treatment requirements as summarized below. · New wastewater facilities shall be designed in accordance with sound engineering practice. · Select treatment processes and equipment which will efficiently and reliably meet required effluent limits. · Locate treatment facilities to minimize adverse impacts from odor, noise, aerosol drift, and lighting and provide assurances that the facility will not adversely impact human health or welfare or enjoyment of property. · Locate the structures essential for operation such that they are protected from the 100-year flood. The facility should be designed to remain operational during the 25-year flood. Camp Dresser & McKee 3-2 C~X,2~1.0~ 7tt 1~7 0~ ~ · Provide at a minimum secondary treatment including an effluent value of not greater than 20 m8/I CBODs and TSS or 90 percent removal from influent, whichever is more stringent. · Provide treatment in excess of secondary for surface water discharge to Class I waters, includin8 high level disinfection. · Provide nutrient removal to levels specified by I:DEP Water Quality Based Effluent Limits OVQBEL) for surface water discharge. The level of treatment requirements of each new or expanded facility must be addressed in a Preliminary Design Report including reliability measures and disinfection levels. The end use oftbe effluent is a determining factor for the level oftreatment. Effluent discharged to surface water should be treated in accordance with advanced wnstewater treatment requirements while that discharged to a reuse system is required to meet advanced secondary wastewater treatment levels. The surface waters of Florlda have been categorized into five (5) classifications according to designated uses. These classifications are: Class I Class II Cla~s III Class IV Cia.ss V Potable Water Supplies Shellfish Propagation or harvesting Recreation, Propagation and Maintenance ora healthy, well-balanced population fish and wildlife Agricultural Water Supplies Navigation, utility and industrial use In regards to flood protection for domestic wastewater facilities, Chapter 62-600, F.A.C. states: The potential for damage or interruption of openttion because of flooding shall be considered by the permittee when siting new treatment plants and expansions of existing plants at inland or Camp Dresser & McKee :~1 12C ObjeCt; ~d ~ 5 coa.~d locations. The treatment plant structures essential t'or the purpose or'treating, stabilizing, conveying or holding incompletely treated waste and electrical and mechanical equipment shall be protected from physical damage by the ! 00-year flood. Chapter 62-604, F.A.C. includes similar design criteria for collection and transmission facilities. It s~tes: The potential t'or damage or int~ruption of operation because of flooding shall be considered by the permittee when siting new pumping stations ~t inland or coastal locations. The electrical and mechanical equipment sludl be protected from physical damage by the 100-year flood. During design, measures will be taken to prevent damage from the 100-year flood event. In as much as practical, structures and electrical and mechanical equipment will be located above the 10G-year flood elevation. Waterproof'enclosures will also be utilized. The South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) also regulates the construction of surface water management systems at treatment plant sites. Final design drawings will be submitted to FDEP and SFWMD for review and approval. 3.3 Effluent Disposal 3.3.1 Surface Water Discharge Surface water discharge consists of the direct discharge of secondary or sdvanced treated wastewater to a water body such as a river, stream, or ocean. The degree of treatment required for such a discharge is determined by the FDEP through a wast¢load allocation (WLA). The WLA process consists of modelin$ the receiving water to determine how much pollution - in the form of C"BOD~, TSS and nutrients - can be added to the water without causing degradation. Completion of the WLA process usually requires at least one year and often longer. Camp Dresser & McKee a-4 12C 51 Set,on 3 Ob/ecf/ve~ and 3.3.2 Deep Well Inje~'on Deep well injection offers another option ss an alternative disposal method and is feasible fi.om regulatory and technical viewpoints, if' certain subsurface conditions exist. A large and highly permeable injection zone must be present so that large quantities of effluent can be disposed of at reasonable injection pressures. The injection zone must contain unusable saltwater with a total dissolved solids CFDS) content in excess or' 10,000 mg/l. Finally, the injection horizon must be overlain by comqning beds with extremely low vertical permeability so that injected fluids will not migrate upward and contaminate aquifers that are underground sources or'drinking water. Aquifers containing water with a TDS concentration of'less than 10,000 rog/1 are defined ss underground sources of drinking water. Chapter 62-525 FAC addresses underground injection control. Five classes of injection wells are defined. Municipal and industrial wsstewater disposal wells injecting effluent below the lower-most stratum containing an "underground source of drinking water" are categorized as Class I injection wells. Chapter 62-528 FAC establishes standards and criteria for the different classes of injection wells; and presents general design considerations and testing procedures, monitoring well requirements and operating requirements. Chapter 62-600 FAC establishes the minimum level of'treatment required for deep well injection ss secondary treatment and pH control. Disini'ection is not required prior to disposal via any Class I well, however, all Class I well permittees must maintain the capability to disint'ect at a level that is consistent with the alternate discharge mechanism pursuant to Chapter 62-528 FAC. No restrictions beyond secondary treatment is imposed on the concentration of solids. However, experience shows that in certain geological formations, there is potential for plugging of the injection zone by solids. This plugging can be mitigated by using filtration or screens and backwashing in the effluent disposal design. Camp Dresser & McKee 3.5 (:~1.03 7/'1t/17 12C 5 O~s ~d Go~ls In siting injection wells at wastewater treatment facilities for the disposal of treated effluent, a number of concerns must be addressed. T~e proximity to a number of other features such as Floridan aquifer supply wells or ASR wells. Water supply wells which withdraw from the proposed injection zone within a mile ofthe proposed injection well system must be considc'red. · Leakage prevention requires a thorough background knowledge ofthe regional subsurface, from a geologic, hydrogeologic and water quality perspective. The presence of faults, caverns and underground cave systems must be investigated. · The proposed method of secondary or emergency backup disposal method must be addressed. Urban and/or agricultural reuse, surface water discharge, spray irrigation, storage, backup injection well capacity or another method of alternative disposal must be permitted along with the injection well system to provide 100 percent backup capacity for a three-day period. 3.3.3 Percolation Ponds Percolation ponds use percolation through the underlying soil to dispose ofwastewater effluent. The success of percolation ponds depends on the soil and groundwater characteristics of the site. In the planning area, groundwater tables are high, often within I to 2 feet of ground surface. Percolation of large volumes of effluent could not be achieved with these conditions, thus percolation ponds have been rejected as a primary means of effluent disposal. These rules are contained in Chapter 62-610 FAC, Part IV. Monitoring wells are required in the proximity or'the percolation ponds. Camp Dresser & McKee 12C 5 Sec~on 3 Objec#ve~ m~d 3.3.4 Wetlands Pursuant to FAC 62-611, treatment requirements for discharge into and out of. a man-made wetland system arc dependent upon the receiving water's quality and flow characteristics. As a result, treatment beyond the standard AWT limits of' $-$-3-1 (mg/l) for CBODs, TSS, total nitrogen and total phosphorus may be required t'or process performance. Specifically, a total phosphorus limit or' 0.2 m8/I is required for most discharges fi.om treatment and receiving waters. A discharge limit of 0.2 mg/I for phosphorus normally requires a treatment plant reduction in phosphorus to less than or equal to 0. S mg/i. Discharge fi'om manmade wetlands into surface waters would require both FDEP and EPA permits. A detailed, site specific study in accordance with a FDEP approved Plan of.Study (POS) may need to be performed. The study must demonstrate that the proposed discharge would not create more than minimum negative impact in terms of'biological and water quality characteristics. Monitoring wells are required in the vicinity of'the wetlands. Discharge to wetlands can be considered as a wet-weather disposal option for a reuse system. According to FDEP regulations, the extensive efforts required for a Minimum Negative Impact 0VINI) study could be avoided if.the county were to implement a man-made wetlands system. The wetland would receive effluent treated to Advanced Wastewater Treatment (AWT) levels and transmit the effluent into a receiving water. A total phosphorus level of 0.2 rog/! must be met at the discharge point from the man-made wetland. This concentration is quite Iow, and most wetlands do not provide a significant degree of phosphorus removal. An exemption can be granted for this concentration ifthe receiving water is not phosphorous limited. Treatment ofphospborus to 0.5 mg,/1 might be required before the effluent is applied to the man-made wetland to meet this criterion. 3.3.5 Reuse At a minimum, advanced secondary treatment (AST) and high level disird'ection must be provided depending upon the final use ofthc effluent and the treated water must be reused in order to be Camp Dresser & McKee cet~t~n m~a~ 3-7 classified as a reuse project. The term, "reuse" is ~urther defined as the deliberate application of' reclaimed water for a beneficial purpose including landscape and agricultural irrigation, aesthetic uses, groundwater recharge, environmental enhancement, and fire protection. Under 62-610, Pan III FAC, additional design and operational regulations applicable to unrestricted public access projects are given. Facilities supplying reclaimed water to unrestricted public access sites ate required to have a flow of'greater than 0.1 mgd. The goal of'this limitation was to reduce the use of'package plants which are prone to poor performance as reuse facilities. Facilities which provide effluent for urban reuse and agricultural reuse food crops ate required to provide filtration and chemical coagulation processes for TSS control. FDEP requires that a minimum horizontal separation of 3 feet (outside to outside) be maintained between reclaimed water lines and either potable water mains or force mains. All piping,, pipelines, valves and outlets shall be color coded or otherwise marked to differentiate reclaimed water facilities fi'ora other facilities. A cross connection control program for sites receiving reclaimed water is also required. The use of'reclaimed water shall be controlled by a formal agreement with the municipality and the receiver of the reclaimed water and/or by a local reuse ordinance. Non-irrigation uses of' reclaimed water are also allowed under Rule 62-610. Specifically, reclaimed water may be used for toilet flushing in motels, hotels apanment buildings, ~nd condominiums where guests do not have access to the plumbing system for repairs or modification; fire protection where hydrants ate color coded, have tamperproot' hold down nuts and can only be operated with a special wrench; and aesthetic purposes such as decorative fountains, ponds, lagoons, and pool. Rule 62-610 also allows for unspecified aesthetic use of reclaimed water. The level of treatment for reuse of'effluent by slow-rate land application systems to public access area.s, residential irrigation, and edible crops is defined in FAC 62-610.460. Th~s regulation requires that the effluent receive secondary treatment and high level disint'ection prior to application. The Camp Dresser & McKee 3-8 00¢.201.D3 7~t 1,~7 Sec~n 3 Objectives and Goals 5 reclaimed water shall also not contain more than 5.0 mg/I of total suspended solids (TSS) before the application of the disinfectant. Seconda~ treatment is defined as achieving an effuent with less than 20 mg/L CBOD~ and 20 mg/L TSS, or 90 percent removal of'each of these pollutants from the wastewater in.quent, whichever is more stringent. High level disinfection ;hall include additional TSS control (to 5.0 rog/L) to maximize disinfection effectiveness and shall be designed to result in an effluent in which fecal coliform values are below detectible limits (per 100 mi of sample). In addition, a chlorine residual of at least 1.0 mg/L shall be maintained at all times and the minimum acceptable contact time shall be 15 minutes at the peak hourly flow. The treatment facility shall include continuous on-line monitoring for turbidity before the application of disinfectant and continuous on- line monitoring of chlorine residual at the compliance monitoring point. Substandard reclaimed water (reject water) shall be stored for subsequent retreatment unless an alternate means of disposal is available, such as deep well injection. In addition to the filtration required to achieve the 5.0 mg/L TSS standard, chemical feed facilities for coagulant, coagulant aids, or polyelectrolytes shall be provided. These chemical feed facilities may be idle if the TSS limitation is being achieved without chemical addition. Rule 62-40 contains the FDEP policies on water resources in Florida and establishes a cooperative relationship with the Water Management Districts on water resource issues. Under the general water policy provisions, reclaimed water is specifically identified as an integral part of water management programs. FDEP also encourages the use of water or'the lowest acceptable quality for the proposed intent. Under water use guidelines, it is stated that no water use permit shall be granted unless the applicant demonstrates a reasonable-beneficial use for that water. Under Rule 62-40 guldelines, a review of the availability of reclaimed water is required prior to the issuance or renewal of a water use permit. FDEP and SFWMD encourage reusing the treated effluent produced at wastewater treatment facilities to provide some benefit and decrease surface water discharge. The treatment and Camp Dresser & McKee 3-9 GOL201.O~ 7/'1 t,~T 120 5 0~ a~ ~ disinfection level varies with the end use of the product. Several of the more common uses for the reclaimed effluent are identified below. 3.3.6 Golf Course and Urban Reuse A minimum of Class I rdiability is required for urban reuse facilities, and the system must demonstrate the ability to retain and retreat or dispose of reclaimed water not meeting water quality criteria. If storage is used to retain substanda~! reclaimed water, FDEP specified a lined pond with a minimum capacity of one day at annual average daily flow. A facility may be exempt fi'om the upset storage requirement if it were demonstrated that a permittable alternative means of disposal is available. Regarding reuse site considerations, installations such as golf courses, parks, etc. must post signs advising the public that reclaimed water is being used. In order to accomplish residential reuse, Rule 62-610 does not require a buffer zone around private swimming pools, hot mbs, spas or surf'ace waters in developed areas; however, there is a 100-foot buffer zone and low trajectory nozzle requirement around public eating, drinking and bathing facilities. A 7S-foot buffer zone is required for shallow potable wells under Rule 62-610; however, to comply with this stipulation, a local ordinance prohibiting private drinking water supply wells in residential areas which receive reclaimed water service may be enacted. Monitoring wells are required throughout the urban reuse area. 3.3. 7 Agricultural Reuse Agricultural reuse can he divided into two categories - restricted public access (i.e. grazing land) and irrigation of edible food crops. Depending upon the intended end use, the effluent quality varies. Camp Dresser & McKee ~10 C::CX~01 ~3 7~11~7 12C 5 06~s mhd Go~ · Restricted Public Access: These areas include sod farms, cattle grazing areas, forests, fodder crops areas, and other areas where public access is limited. The minimum treatment requirements in accordance with FAC 62-6 i 0.410 are secondary treatment with basic disinfection. · Irrigation of Edible Food Crops: Reclaimed water for this use must meet secondary treatment ,tquirements with high level disird'ection in accordance with FAC 62-610.460. In accordance with 62-610.475, direct irrigation contact of reclaimed water with edible crops that will be peeled, skinned, cooked or thermally processed is allowed. Irrigation o£edible crops that will not be peeled, skinned, cooked, or thermally processed before consumption is allowed it'indirect application that will preclude direct contact with thc reclaimed water is used. 3.3.8 Industrial Reuse Industrial reuse consists of' replacing potable water with reclaimed water in industrial applications. Most commonly, reclaimed water is used in cooling towers. The reclaimed water must usually be treated to advanced levels to be acceptable for use in cooling towers. Chemicals are often added to prevent biot'ouling of the towers. In addition, the disposal of the cooling tower blowdown, which often conta~s high levels ordissolved solids, must be considered. The use of reclaimed water for industrial reuse is governed under Chapter 62-610, FAC Part VII. 3.3.9 Weflfield Augmentation Wellfield augmentation draft regulations were published by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection on December 13, 1996. These rules were contained in revisions of Chapter 62-610, F.A.C. Reuse ot'Reclaimed Water and Land Application. These rules included significant revisions providing minimum requirements for well field augmentation. Further revisions of these regulations should be expected during the Phase II rulemaking process. Camp Dresser & McKee C0¢,.291,0~ 7/11,~7 $ect/on 3 Ot~vos ar~t Goa/s Augmentation of a G-II groundwater with total dissolve solids less than 3000 mg/1 or augmentation of G-I or F-I groundwater requires fiJII treatment of the reclaimed water prior to injection. Full treatment requires the reclaimed water to meet the primary drinking water standards as the maximum sinqle sample limit and secondary drinking water standards as the maximum annual average limit. Primary standards must be met prior to injection, while secondary standards will be provided a zone of discharge in the groundwater aquifer and shall be met at the edge of this zone. If the native groundwater quality is lower than the secondary drinking water standards, an exemption may be requested up to native groundwater quality concentrations. In addition to these standards, additional water quality standards are required and summarized below. · Total organic carbon (TOC) less than 3.0 mg/l · Total organic halogen (TOX) less than 0.3 rog/! · Treatment processes which serve as a multiple barrier for control of organics and pathogens Pilot testing for a minimum of one year must be conducted to affirmatively demonstrate that the proposed treatment processes will protect the public health. During the pilot test evaluation of specific viruses and pathogens must be conducted to demonstrate the injected water will be pathogen free. The applicant must submit to FDEP the results of the biological testing procedures and approval by the department must be granted. 3.3.10 Wet Weather Management Rules Managing and allocating reclaimed water supplies may be significantly different from the management of traditional sources of water. For example, a water utility currently drawing from groundwater or surface impoundments uses the resource as a source and storage facility. If all of the yield of the source is not required, the water is simply left for use at a later date. In the case of reuse, reclaimed water is continuously generated and what cannot be used immediately must be stored or disposed of in some manner. Additionally, FAC 62-610.414 requires that, unless an alternative disposal method is Camp Dresser & McKee Objec~ve~ end Gods available, adequate storage be provided to retain excess reclaimed water for a 10-year recurrence interval using weather data representative of the area involved. The need for seasonal storage in reclaimed water programs generally results from one oftwo requirements. First, storage may be required during periods of Iow demand for subsequent use during pe,~c demand periods. Second, storage may be required to reduce or eliminate the discharge of excess reclaimed water into surface water or groundwater. These two needs for storage are not mutually exclusive, but diff`erent parameters are considered in developing an appropriate design for each. Ifstorage only is used as a means ofwet weather management, then an emergency surface water discharge point still must be provided in the event that the design storage recurrence interval is exceeded. Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) on long-term basis can provide essential storage capacity of reclaimed water for later recovery during peak demands and drought conditions. The criteria for ASR varies depending upon the quality of the groundwater in the receiving aquifer and that of the injected water. Because the ASR practice involves the use of an injection well, the project must be approved and permitted by the FDEP under Chapter 62-528 FAC under the criteria for a Class V ASR injection well. Permitting of the Class V injection well will be reviewed because the injection will be into an Underground Storage of Dfinlcing Water (USDW). USDW is generally defined as an aquifer or part of an aquifer in which the native groundwater has a total dissolved solids (TDS) content orless than 10,000 milligrams per liter. Ifthe injected fluid (reclaimed water) violates any federal/state priman7 or secondary drinking water standards or may adversely affect the public health, the application would require an aquifer exemption. For injection into groundwater with 'IDS ranging from 3.000 to 10,000 rog/l, the exemption is classified as "minor" and will be processed by the Tallahassee office of the FDEP. The aquifer exemption changes the designated use of the aquifer or portion there of from that ora USDW. Camp Dresser & McKee cot~.aa 7.~7 3-15 5 Sec~on 3 Ifthe injected fluid will only cause a violation of a minimum criteria~ then a water-quality criteria exemption would be required. Unlike the aquifer exemption which requires FDEP end EPA approval, the water-quality exemption criteria only requires FDEP approval. The degree of treatment for the reclaimed water is therefore an important element in the permitting process. The identification of,, suitable aquifer (or part of an aquifer) for ASR is the next most important element once the water- quality characteristics of the reclaimed water are determined. 3.3.11 Existing Permit Requirements The minimum treatment requirements for treatment facilities are based to a large extent upon the intended disposal method for the effluent end residuals generated by the treatment facility. Operation permits establish effluent limitations for treatment facilities. Florida Department of Environmental Protection (TD£P) permit FLA01413$ allows operation ofthe South County Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant (SCRWWTP). The SCRWWTP is permitted to treat $ mgd with discharge to at regional reuse system. Residuals are dewatered end disposed of in the landfill. FDEP permit FLA014133 allows operation of the Pelican Bay wW'rF with an average annual treatment capacity of 1.0 mgd with reuse for effluent disposal end land application of residuals. FDEP permit FLA014139 allows opcralion of thc North County Regional W~',stewater Treatment Plant (NCRWWTP) with a treatment capacity of 8.$ msd with reuse for effluent disposal.

The pumittee may enter into an agreement with a disposer (hauler, contractor, or disposal/land applieation site owner) which states that the disposer agrees to comply with the requirements of'the wastewater treatment facility permit. The permittee must demonstrate that residuals delivered to the disposer meet the chemical criteria and stabiliz&tion requirements. All domestic wastewatcr residuals applied to the land must be treated to one of the following classes of stabilization: 3.4.1.1 Class A These standards will be met if the method of stabilization meets the Process to Further Reduce Pathogens (PFRP) conditions as described in Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 257. By reference, those processes include composting, heat drying, heat treatment, thermophillc aerobic digestion, and other processes which may achieve equivalent pathogen reduction and vector attraction reduction such u alkaline stabilization. Camp Dresser & McKee 3-16 C:X~X~OIJ~ :1.2C 5 Sec~on 3 Objec~w= md Go~= 3.4. f.2 Class B These standards will be achieved it'the stabilization process meets the Process to Significantly Reduce Pathogens (PSRP) as described in the same federal regulations referenced above. Included in these processes are aerobic digestion/air dryln~, anaerobic digestion/air d~jin~, compostlns, and lime stabilization. Process requirements for detention times, temperatures, volatile solids reduction, or pH are included in the regulations. Ir'the stabilization method is identified as PSRP, but the design or operational requirements of the regulations are not met, then the stabilization will be Class B. ReFerence is made to Ten State Standards in thc rule to establish a minimum level of treatment acceptable. The rule provides t'or restrictions on the application site management practices according to the class of stabilization achieved in the processing of'the residuals. Table 3-2 summarizes the site restrictions by stabilization class. The land application ofwastewater residuals is restricted by the total cumulative heavy metals application and by the concentration of'heavy metals in the residuals. In order for a disposal site to continue to receive wastewatcr residuals, the total application cannot exceed the cumulative limits identified in Table 3-3, Similarly, in order to be land applied, the concentration of heavy metals in a wastewater residual cannot exceed the concentrations in Table 3-3. 3.4.1.3 Application Sites Three types of sites are recognized as suitable for land application of residuals. Agricultural sites are limited to the agronomic nitrogen uptake rate for the specific crop being grown on the site. Cadmium is limited to 0.5 pounds per acre-year. Groundwater must be at least 2 feet below the ground surface at the time of application.

Class B is similar to PSRP (Process to Significantly Reduce Pathogens) standards. For Class A Pathogen reduction, EPA allows any one of six alternative methods to be used. All methods require testing for indicator bacteria (fecal coliform) or salmonella. This requirement is coupled with either time and temperature requirements, pH requirements, enteric virus or belminth ova determination for "low pathogen" sludge, enteric virus or helminth ova determlnalion for typical sludge, PFRP, or PFRP equivalent. The Pan 503 rule contains options for demonstrating reduced vector attraction for biosolids. These requirements are designed to either reduce the attractiveness of biosolids to vectors or prevent vectors from coming in contact with the biosolids. The attractiveness ofbiosollds may be reduced by decreasing the volatile solids, providing additional anaerobic or aerobic digestion, changing the characteristic: of the aerobic digestion process, alkali addition, and drying biosolids to a specific percent solids. Preventing vectors from coming into contact with biosolids may be achieved by injecting the biosollds beneath the soil surface or incorporation into the soil soon after placement, or covering the biosolids daily. Co-disposal of sludge with solid waste in a landfill is regulated under 40 CFR~ Part 258, Criteria for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills. This law sets forth criteria for the location, design, operation, cleanup and closure of municipal solid waste landfills. These regulations axe considered minimum criteria and can be made more stringent on a state or local level. EPA requires submission of an annual residuals report to document the quantity, quality and disposal method ofwastewater residuals. In addition, Chapter 62-640 F.A.C. includes requirements for sludge which is land-applied or distributed and marketed. The rule includes standards for Class A and Class B stabilization, restrictions on application site management practices and restrictions on cumulative Camp Dresser & McKce cc~ ~n~r ~-~2 12C 5 Obje~:~es snd metals application and metals concentrations. FDEP requires residuals analysis and agricultural use pl~n depending on the method of'residual disposal. 3.5 Permitting Requirements and Considerations Numerous permits are required to construct and operate the system in accordance with federal, ~d~te and local regulations. The following list identifies the anticipated permits required for improvements to the wastewater system. 3.5.1 Federal · NPDES for Sludge Disposal - EPA · Stormwater National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) - EPA · Nationwide Dredge and Fill - Corps of Engineers 3.5.2 State of Florida · NPDES for Wastewater Treatment, Reuse & Disposal (Construction & Operation) - FDEP · Water Supply/Exlension - HRS · Wastewater Construction of Collection/Transmission Facilities - FDEP · Wastewater Operation of Treatment, Collection/Transmission, Reuse and Disposal Facilities - · Dredge and Fill of State Waters/Wetlands. FDEP/SFWMD · Management and Storage of Surface Waters - SFWMD/FDEP · Right-of-Way Use Permit o State of Florida Department of Transportation Camp Dresser & McKee co.2m za 7nia2 3-23 Sectioe3 Objeca~s end Gods 3.5.3 Collier County · Site Development Plan · L~d Use approval as conditional use or Essential Services Facility · Right-of-Way Use Permit · 9fiveway Permit · Tree Clewing Permit/Vegetative Removal Permit · Excavation Permit Several of'these permits will talce considerable time and effort to obtain. It is those which have impact to both project design and schedule that are delineated in more detail as follows. 3.5.4 NPDES Permitting Ea :h wastewater treatment facility must have an NPDES permit in order to discharge effluent to surface waters. Existing NPDES permits must be updated to reflect any changes in treatment plant capacity or treatment processes. In addition to the discharge permit required for each treatment facility, two general NPDES permits are required: one for construction activity and one for the discharge ofstormwater fi.om the site. The construction permit is intended to minimize surface water impacts resulting fi.om construction activities. The stormwater discharge permit is intended to minimize the impacts ofstormwater management systems at the treatment facilities on surface water quality. This issue will be addressed during the treatment plant improvement/design phase. In 1992, EPA amended their surface water pollution control program under the amendments or'the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1251 et. seq.) to require NPDES permits for discharges of'stormwater fi.om construction sites which are greater then five acres in size. The State of'Florida has certified nationwide general permit for stormwater discharges fi.om construction sites (September 9, 1992, Camp Dresser & McKee (::OL201,0~ 7~11,~7 3-24 12C 5 Sect~n 3 Federal Register) for use in Florida. The responsibility for the NPDES permitting has been deieg,~ted by EPA to the State of Florida. As part of this program, any activities which may effect stormwater runoffmust be covered under a Notice of Intent (NOI) for stormwater discharge. A copy of the NOI and a brief description of the project shall be posted at the construction site in a prominent place for public viewing. Once the cot~ruction activities are completed, a Notice of Terrnination (NOT) must be filed. The NOT form should be filed at the completion ofcach aspect ofthe project. In addition to completing the NOI and NOT, a pollution prevention plan to reduce pollution at construction sites is required. This plan may include erosion and sedimentation controls, inspection and maintenance, and other commonly used stormwater management controls. It is important to apply for permit modifications as soon as there is concurrence with the modification approach and effluent management system. The permit for the operation ora stormwater system should be filed once the treatment plant design has proceeded to the point of being able to identify sto~Tnwater impacts. The construction permit application should be filed by the contractor once construction contracts are awarded and will contain measures that the contractor will follow to minimize surface water impacts. On May 1, 1995, the USEPA turned over their NPDES wastewater permitting for Florida to FDEP for administration and enforcement. The state anticipates taking over the NPDES stormwater program in 1999-2000. In general, the FDEP previously handled facilities under two distinct permits, specifically - construction and operation. The method of disposal, i.e. surface water discharge, reuse, were usually defined in the FDEP permit for the facility. The USEPA required a separate additional permit under their NPDES program for surface water discharges. ~ -- ' . These changes apply only to the plant facilities and their respective discharges, not collection/transmission system permits. Camp Dresser & McKee ~ 7n1~7 3-25 Secgon 3 Objective, and Coals A summary of major changes is provided below. · ~ - There will be an annual fee required to maintain a surface water and underground injection discharge permit. This will apply to all types of.permits and industry ,~wastewater, water, etc.). Assessments are based on the sLze of'facility with credits for level of. reuse applications. Annual assessments are due by January 15 ofeach year. The fees are charged per permitted facility. There is supposedly no late payment. Non-payment can potential[y result in enforcement, permit revocation, and non-renewal. .Q~ - There are no longer three separate permits for treatment facilities - NPDES, FDEP Construction, and FDEP Operation. With the new process, there is only one comprehensive permit issued by FE)EP. FDEP issues a letter of'approval for construction prior to the issuance of' the permit for new facilities and modification of'the operating permit for construction modifications to existing facilities. FDEP has stated that construction for surface water dischargers are prohibited without the permit issued. New permitting forms (General and Form 2A for typical Domestic WWTP) have been issued which emulate the former EPA NPDES application forms and the former FDEP construction and operation application forms. The required application time is a minimum of. 180 days prior to renewal or discharge activity fi.om new/modified facility. Various reports are required depending on the application type and surface water discharges are required two public notices. .~ - Ifa facility has a current FDEP operating permit and NPDES permit, then the permits will be combined as one permit by letter from FDEP. The more recent of the two expiration dates will become the combined permit expiration date. Camp Dresser & McKee ccx.~tm ?,~az 3-26 12C ,Sec:~bn 3 Objectivea an~ · There are no more Temporary Operating Permits, instead FDEP will reissue the former TOP format under an Administrative Order. 5 'l%ere are no longer 'default' issued permits. IfFDEP exceeds their applications time clock, then the applicant can file for relief'through filing a 'Writ' to the circuit court; however, the court can only direct the FDEP to make a decision (which could be to deny). Application fees have been changed or in~easeJ depending on how the application is defined in 62- 4. Minor revisions and substantial revisions (and associated fees) have been further defined. For example, ifa permittee wants to add a reuse site to their existing permit, it will require $5,000 substantial modification fee because it's considered an expansion of'permitted reuse capacity. Combining modifications/revisions will save the permittee money since tees are assessed on one application not as a total of applicable fees. Permitting for wastewatcr residuals has not yet been delegated to FDEP and still must be permitted through the EPA NPDES program as well as FDEP. 3.5.5 FDEP Collection and Transmission Construction Permit An FDEP construction permit will be required for any new collection and transmission system. While this permit cannot be obtained by a design report and requires plans and specifications, a design report should be filed with FDEP to allow early review of'the design criteria. Chapter 624504, F.A.C. establishes requirements for collection systems and transmission facilities. The rule established permitting procedures, provides design and performance requirements for pump stations and waterway crossings and includes the following: Camp Dresser & McKee eo~.~l~a 2n~? 3-27 12C 5 Se~n 3 Objec~,e~ ~m~ C,~/~ · protdbits the release of excreta, sewage or other waste'water or sludge without providing proper treatment · prohibits the intentionaJ introduction o['stormwater into a collection/transmission system · prohibits thc acceptance ofwastewatcr which ha~ not received necessary pretreatment or which contain pollutants that may cause fire or explosion, excessive corrosion, obstruction of flow or increased discharge temperatures · prohibits failure to maintain equipment in a condition which will enable the intended function · requires notification when abnormal events such as equipment breakdown, power outages or destruction by fire, wind or other cause, results in disposal of inadequately treated waste. 3. 5. 6 Dredge and FilI/MSSW Permitting. Army Corps of Engineers/FDEP The proposed facilities may impact isolated wetlands on the site and along the transmission mute. These herbaceous systems will be impacted primarily due to canal or wetland crossings ofthe transmission and effluent disposal system and wastewater treatment plant construction and/or expansion. Both dredge and fill and MSSW permitting are now the responsibility of FDEP for wastewater treatment facilities. Since FDEP has not been in the role ofpermitting many on site stormwater treatment systems or isolated wetland impacts, this application process may take time. 3.5.7 Planning and Zoning Collier County has adopted ordinances restricting the type of construction in each land use zone. The construction of'pump stations and wastewater treatment facilities may require a special exception to be plac~ in a residential area. For properly with land use consistent for the proposed facility, the use will be approved as a conditional use. New facilities will require the designation oran essential services facility. Any facility extending greater than 30-inches above ground elevation will be required to meet Camp Dresser & McKee ccx.~s ~ ?ni~7 ~-28 12C Sec~on 3 county set-back requirements. Excavation pein'fits are required for any excavation 2-feet deep or IFe~ter. Special exceptions are granted by the following general procedure: 1. Obtain legal description of property. 2. Obtain the names of property owners surrounding the proposed property. 3. Develop preliminary site plans. 4. Submit special exception application. 5. Attend Public Hearing for site(s). 6. Obtain approval. This procedure allows for public input regarding the location and site layout of the pumping facilities and wastewater treatment facilities and can, therefore, be extensive. Camp Dresser & McKee COL201.0~ 7nI~7 3-29 12C Section 4 Environmental Inventory The ex~sting environmental conditions for Collier County are described to provide a b~is for impact analysis of the wastewater treatment and e~uent disposal aitem~tives. These envlmnmental conditions include only the study area and are based upon ird'ormation from the County regarding know~ sreas of concern as well as informstion fi.om permitting agencies. Major portions of this section have been repeated from the original 201 Facilities Plan (May 1978) and subsequent updates dated May 1986 and Sune 1996. 4.1 Topography Collier County can be divided into three physiographic regions: flatland, the Big Cypress Swamp, and the coastal barrier islands. In the coastal regions, the elevstions vary between sea level to approximately 9 feet mean sea level (MSL). In the flatland, which .are generally located west of U.S. Highway 41, the elevations vary between 9 feet and 15 feet msi. The flatland are dominated by the Immokales and the Arzell soils. These soils are poorly drained and the land surface is interspersed with numerous neutral calcareous sloughs and swamps. The coastal island regions are dominated by mangrove swamps. Often between the mangrove swamps and freshwater marshes, narrow zones oftldal salt marshes are found. Many drainage canals serve to drain the land surface ofthe planning area. The major drainage basins are the Cocohatchee River in the northwest and the Golden Gate Canal network and Gordon River. 4.2 Geology The hydrogeology of Collier County has been revealed through a number of investigations originated by the U.S. Geological Survey, the South Florida Water Management District, academic research, Camp Dresser & McKee (x~.~os ~4 ?n4~? 4-1 ~4 and by various consultants. The terminology used con.t'orms to that given in Florida Geological Survey Publication 28 and Bulletin Number :59. The following is a bfiffdescfiption of'the geologic formations and ~uirers encountered beneath Collier County. They are described from youngest to oldest. The reader is referred to Figures 4-1 and 4-2 to obtain geologic ages and lithologie descriptions of'the formations. 4.2.1 Pamlico Sand The uppermost formation encountered in Collier County is the Pamlico Sand. The unit is generally less than 5 feet thick. This surfieial, Pleistocene-age deposit occurs throughout most or' South Florida. It is predominantly medium to fine grain quartz sand with varying amounts of shell, detritsl clays and organic constituents. These sediments are commonly clayey and the development of'soil orizons within the unit is common. Permeability is generally medium to low depending on the quantity of' secondary constituents. 4.2.2 Fort ThompsorVT'amiami Fonna#on The Fort Thompson Formation consists of'six feet of alternating fresh-water, marine, and brackish- water marls, limestones, shell beds and sand at the type locality on the C, aloosahatchee River, near LaBelle (Parker and others, 1955). In Collier County, the Fort Thompson consists chiefly of hard, sandy limestone and calcareous sandstone containing pockets of quartz sand and thin beds of dense, hard fresh-water limestone. The Tamiami Formation is below the Fort Thompson Formation and often includes three distinct member units. These member units in order of increasing depth are the Pinecrest Limestone, the Bonita Springs Marl and the Ochopee Limestone.

According to Meeder (1979), Pliocene reefal limestones of Collier and southern Lee County are facies equivalent with the Pinecrest Sand Member, and in this report are referred to as the Pinecrest Limestone Member, of the Tamiami Formation. The undifferentiated Fort Thompson Formation and Pinecrest Limestone lle unconformably beneath the Parnlico Sand when it is present. It consists of,sandy, highly fossilif'erous limestones containing varying quantities of mollusk shells, corals, bryozoans and barnacles. It is characterized by abrupt changes in thickness and lithology and often has a high permeability caused by the secondary dissolution o£aragonitic shell. This secondary dissolution of'shell creates an abundance of mold and cast type porosity which greatly enhances the storage and flow of water through the formation. The sequence of'green to gray marls lies between the Pinecrest and Ochopee Limestone Members, of the Tamiami Formation. This unit is referred to in this report as the Bonita Springs Marl Member, of the Tamiami Formation. The Bonita Springs Marl is actually a sandy, sometimes shelly, carbonate clay. The amount of fine grained quartz silt and sand varies from 10 to 30 percent. Other impurities include poorly lithified siltstone, phosphate sand and fossil shells. The overall thickness of'the deposit is variable. Permeability of'this unit varies based on the relative percentages ofclay, quartz sand and shell. In general, the permeability of'the sediment is Iow and declines with depth because ora decrease in the percentage of sand and other impurities. The Bonita Springs Marl is absent in the southern pan of the country. The Ochopee Limestone Member, of'the Tamiami Formation, was named by Mansfield (i 939) for the light gray-to-white sandy fossiliferous limestone which crops out near the town of Ochopee, in Collier County (Hunter, 1968). Lithologically, the Ochopee is a sandy biomicTudite with extensive primary and secondary porosity. The dissolution of shell material, creating large interconnection shell molds, accounts for the high permeability of this unit. Camp Dresser & McKee C~.201 ,G4 7~J 4,'g7 4-3 4.2.3 Hawthorn Group 5 The Hawthorn Group lies unco~ormably beneath the Tamiami Formation. The Hawthorn Group is regionally ex~ensive and underlies most of Florida and parts of Georgia and South Carolina. The Ha vthorn Group includes both carbonate and siliclclastic rock and sediment that are Miocene in age. The top of the Hawthorn Group occurs at a depth ofabout 100 feet below land surface and extends down to a depth of about 700 to 900 feet below land surface. Beneath Collier County the Hawthorn Group contains two regional formations; the Peace River and Arcadia Formations. The upper formation of the Hawthorn Group is the Peace River, which is a phosphatic green sandy dolosilt containing a sandy limestone section. This unit extends from 100 feet to 300 feet below land surface. Th(. Arcadia Formation occurs below the Peace River. The mixed carbonate and elastic assemblage is extremely complex, containing several lithologies including limestone, dolomite, lime mud and clay. Secondary components ofthls sequence include sandstone, phosphate and shell. The majority ofthe limestones are characterized lithologically ~s ~able biomicrite with interbedded fine lime mud. These limestones lack extensive secondary porosity. Some of the limestones are quite clean, very pale ora~nge in color and have moldic and vuggy porosity. 4.2.4 Suwannee Limestone The upper boundary of the Suwannee Limestone is marked by a change from the light gray, sandy, phosphatic limestones of the Hawthorn Group to a tan, phosphate free, calcarenitic limestone ofthe Suwannee Formation. The contact between the two formations is also charact~ by an abrupt attenuation of activity on natural gamma ray logs. Although the cont&ct be~een the Hawthorn Group and the Suwannee Limestone is uncon~'ormable throughout much of South Florida (Scott, 1988), in the study area the contact can be somewhat 8radational and is not always obvious in the field. Camp Dresser & McKee ~L~Ot .04 7N4,~7 4-4 ,12(: 5 Sec~on 4 Env/ronmental/nventt)O, The Suwanne¢ Limestone is composed of Oiigocene-age rocks r~nging from unlithified lime muds, to well-consolidated dolomites. The characteristic lithology of the Upper Suw~nnee Limestone is ,, very pale orange or light tan biomicrite to biosparite (packstone to grainstone) having a medium grained calc~renite texture. Typically, they are moderately indurated m'~d are composed of moderately to well sorted foraminifera, pellets, and abraded echinoderm and mollusk fragments. Porosity is mostly int¢.rgranular in the calcarenities and is relatively high in the Upper Suwannee Aquifer. The Lower Suwarmee Aquifer is composed ofinterbedded limestones ~nd c.~nate muds. Limestones in the lower unit are si~lar to those in the upper unit but typically contain more lime mud Md fine grained phosphatic clastic material. Rock types range from mudstones to packstones, and porosity is much reduced but variable in the Lower Suw~nnee Aquifer. This interbedded sequence shows elevated activity on gamma ray logs. The Suwannee is 350 to 400 feet thick in Collier County and occurs at a depth of about 750 to 900 feet. 4.2.50cala Group The contact between the Ocala group and the overlying Suwannee Limestone is marked by a change from the tan calcarenite limestones and interbedded clays of'the Lower Suwannee Limestone to the very pale orange, chalky coquinoid limestone of'the Ocala Group, accompanied by a slight reduction of'activity on ganu'na ray logs. The Ocala Group is an Upper Eocene-age unit composed primarily of light gray to beige micrites and biomicrites (mudstones to packstones). These limestones exhibit a broad range oftextural fabrics, ranging from very fine grained chalky muds to coquinea-like grainstones. The Ocala Group is characterized by an abundance of larger foraminifera tests, such as Qgr, L~ag~ sp., ~ sp. And ~ sp., sometimes comprising the entire rock. The Ocala was subdivided into three distinct units by Pud (1957) when it was elevated to Group status. These three formations are not readily apparent in the subsurface of Collier County. The top ofthe Ocala is encountered at a depth of about 1300 feet with a thickness of 250 to 300 feet. Camp Dresser & McKee 4.2.6 Avon Park Limestone ~4 Thc Middle Eocene age Avon Pa'k Lime consists oi'limestones, minor lime muds and dolomites. The litholog3, at the top or'the unit is generally very similar to the overlying white chalky limestones of'the Ocala Limestone. The bounda~-y between the two units is projected at about 1600 t'eet below land surface, based on a marked increase in activity on the gamma-ray geophysical log ora nearby oil test well. This increase in gamma-ray activity seems to be a fairly common feature at the top or'the Avon Park in wells drilled in Southwest Florida. Porosity in the Avon Park Limestone is extremely variable because or'variations in depositional textures, which range from mudstones to grainstones (Purl and Winston, 1974), degree ot'recrystallization or'the dolomite and degree of'secondary dissolution. Thickness or'the Avon Park Limestone ranges from 450 to over 700 t'eet beneath Southwest Florida. At this site, it is believed that approximately 650 t'eet of'limestones, muds and dolomites, of'the Avon Park Limestone, will be penetrated. 4.2. 70Idsmar Umestone The Lower Eocene age Oldsmar Limestone consists of limestones and dolomites in the upper half of the unit and primarily dolomites in the lower section. This formation was originally described by Applin and Applin (1944) as a biostratigraphic unit consisting of nonelastic rocks in peninsular and northern Florida. Chen (1965) believes that the Oldsmar has conformable relationships with the strata lying above and below the unit. He describes the formation as light brown to chalky white, rather pure, porous and fossiliferous limestone interbedded with dark brown, rather porous, fine to coarse crystalline, often saccharoid textured dolomite beds. Commonly existing within the Oldsmar Limestone in South Florida is what is referred to as the "Boulder Zone." The Boulder Zone represents intervals or'very high transmissivities and porosities that are present within the cavernous and fractured dolomites. The "Boulder Zone" term is Camp Dresser &: McKee CX~L~gt.04 7~4~7 4-6 ,].2C 5 Section 4 Envfronmental/nventory misleading because the zone contains no boulders but rather is an intricate network of rugs, fractures and caverns found in the lower saline part ofthe Floridan Aquifer (D~ucrling. 1983). The name was first used by drillers exploring for oil in South Florida in the early 1940's to describe a zone which reacts similar to drilling through alluvial boulders. Haberfeld (1991) states that the highly permeable Boulder Zone is recognized on geophysical logs by greatly enlarged hole sizes on the caliper log. exceedingly long sonic transit times, very low resistivity and changes on temperature and flowmeter logs. It h~ been suggested that the Boulder Zone consists of highly fractured dolomites and that cavities only develop a~er drill bit penetration (Hickey, 1990). The Boulder Zone in South Florida is usually highly developed and is somewhat predictable in its occurrence. It slowly pinches out to the north; fi.om about the Charlotte-Lee county line to not being present at all near the Sarasota-Charlotte county line. This thinning to the north probably results fi.om a iithologic facies change. The depth to this zone in Southwest Florida averages approximately 2500 feet below land surface whereas the depth to the Boulder Zone in Southeastern Florida averages about 3000 feet. 4.3 Soils Soils characteristics are an important consideration in the facility plarming process because they govern the type of development for which a particular area is best suited. In facilities planning, soil survey data defines the limits within which septic tank systems are acceptable, where urban and n~ral development can be anticipated, and the potential success of employing percolation ponds or land spreading as effluent disposal alternatives. Soils data can also be used in the selection of construction sites for wastewater transmission and treatment facilities. The soils of Collier County are predominantly fine sands low in organic matter. Soil depths vary from a few feet to 10 to 30 feet in the western portions of thc County. Most of the soils have good, rapid Camp Dresser & McKee co,..,-~'~.o4 7/.~.4,~? al~7 Sec/k~ 4 Env~'onmenlal/nven/ury internal drainage characteristics when dry; however, because of iow relief and a near surface ground water table, the soils have poor surface drainage. Many of the soils are acid near the surface but become alkaline in subsoils that overlie limestone. Listed in Table 4-1 are some ofthe more common western Collier County soils. Several soil types occur which are intertidal and flooded during high tides. These are: Cypress Swamp (Cf), Tidal Marsh (Ta), Mangrove Swamp (Mb), and Fresh Water Marsh (Fb). Arzell type soils are extensive in the west central portion of Collier County and east of Naples. Cypress Swamp, Fresh Water Marsh, Sunniland, and Blanton soils are interspersed as patches within the Arzell soils. The Coastal Beach soils are restricted to a narrow strip along the shoreline. Landward of the Coastal Beach soils in a strip west and north of Naples lie in Immokalee soils. Pompano soil borders Naples to the east. The Tidal Marshland Mangrove Swamps border Naples Bay and the salt water bays southeast of Naples and landward to Marco Island. Source: R.G.

Three major aquifer systems have been identified in Collier County.

The aquifer systems are typically well separated and pumpage from one system usually does not significantly affect the others. The aquifers within each system are separated by confining beds, which generally do not provide complete hydraulic separation, but to yawing degrees, allow water to leak between the aquifers. The rate and direction at which leakage occurs depends on the vertical hydraulic conductivity of the confining unit and the potentiometric head differential between the adjacent aquifers, both natural and pumping induced. A schematic diagram showing the formations and lithologies present within each of the aquifer systems is provided in Figure 4-1. A north-south cross-section indicating the relative positions of the aquifers in western Collier County is included in Figure 4-2. Collier County is planning to use the Floridan Aquifer for potable supply with reverse osmosis treatment. 4.4.2 Surface Water Systems The primary surface water drainage features of Coastal Collier County are well established. Some of these features, ~uch as the Cocohatchee River, Gordon River, and Henderson Creek. are natural, while others, such as the Golden Gate Canal network and the Cocohatchee River Canal are man- made. The man-made drainage features tend to increase surface outflows from their drainage basins above the natural level. 4.4.3 Flood Prone Areas According to the U.S.G.S. maps, approximately 90 percent of the Coastal Collier County Planning Area is in the 100-year flood plain. Therefore, almost any additional development will be in the flood plain. Figure 4-3 depicts the 100-year flood within the 201 planning area.

In the winter months, the maximum temperature is usually in the 7O's or, occasionally, the lower gO's. Them ar-. days, however, when the temperature does not climb above the 50's or lower 60's. Summer temperatures average in the high 80's, but are usually onset by cooling breezes fi.om the Gul£ot' Mexico. The kind of' heat waves that plague northern cities (when the temperature hits ! 00 degrees or more for several days at a time) are unknown here. Precipitation in Collier County, although subject to fluctuation, does exhibit a sea.sonal variation with the wet period occurring fi'om about June through September in an average year. The bulk of'ralnf.all occurring in these months results fi.om short-duration afternoon or early evening showers, or thunderstorms which occur on about half'the summer days. These events usually lower temperatures 1(7' to 15° F very quickly. Thunderstorms are occasionally heavy, releasing as much as 3 inches of.r~n in an hour or two, and are sometimes accompa~ed by strong wind gusts, and hail, especially in springtime. Long-duration summer rains are usually associated with tropical storms and thus are in~equent. Dry period rainfall is usually associated with large-scale weather developments and thus does not display a tendency to occur at a particular time of day. Average rainfall is about $6 inches at Naples. Tropical storms or hurricanes pass through the county at irregular intervals. The chances of.hurricane force winds (75 mph or greater) occurring in Naples any given year is small. These events produce abundant rainfall. Accumulations of 13 inches or more over a 4-day period can be expected to occur once in 25 years. Shallow ground tog may occur in inland a~.as during winter and early spring. These togs usually dissipate soon sfter sunrise. Tornadoes have been reported within the county. Waterspouts are sometimes seen in local surf'ace waters. Camp Dresser & McKee ~.D4 7~14~7 4-11 4.6 Air Quality Due to the nature of Collier County's employment base being limited in industry, air quslity is considered good. Collier County is an attainment area for ail pollutants. The major source ofair pollution in the planning ~rea is automobile emissions. In addition to automobiles, there are a few ss~0halt and cement plants and incinerators which hold air pollution point source permits in and surrounding the Planning Area. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) maintains one air quality monitoring station (AQMS) in Collier County. The State identifies air quality standards for carbon monoxide, lead, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, paniculate matter and sulfur dioxide. Paniculate matter is the only parameter monitored for in Collier County. The State will monitor ozone when the County reaches a population of 200,000. P~.rticulate matter values recorded at the AQMS located at the County Courthouse indicate levels below the annual mean of 50 ppm and the 24--hour high of 150 ppm. (Table 4-2). Thus, the condition of air quality at this station is within State standards. There does appear to be an increasing trend with the 2-hour high values. No other data are available to indicate any problems. The site address used for measurement is 2501 Airport Road, which is in the East Naples Community District. Air quality considerations in the county must follow the requirements of the Florida Air and Water Pollution Control Act, Chapter 403, Florida Statutes, the Clean Air Act, Chapter 62-640 FAC, and 40 CFR Pan 503. Significant air pollution levels are not expel:ted in the foresee, able future. Future expansion efforts and siting ofwastewater treatment facilities will require consideration of odor abatement and odor control to maintain current air quality.

The minimum criteria for the protection ofground water resources are as follows: All ground water shall at ali places and at all times be flee fi.om domestic, industrial, agricultural, or other man-induced non-thermal components of discharges in concentration which, alone or in combination with other substances, or components of discharges (whether thermal or non- thermal): a. Are harmful to plants, animals, or organisms that are native to the soil and respona'ble for treatment or stabilization of the discharge relied upon by Department permits; or Camp Dresser & McKee 4-15 12C b. Are carcinogenic, mutagenic, teratogenic, or toxic to human beings, unless speciHc criteria ar~ established for such components in 62-3.404; or c. Are acutely toxic to indigenous species ofsign~Hcance to the aquatic community within surface waters aff'ected by the ground water at the point o£contact with surface waters; or d. Pose a serious danger to the public health, safety, or weI£are; or e. Create or constitute a nuisance; or f.. Impair the reasonable and beneficial use of.adjacent waters. Coastal Collier County relies on ground water as the source of water f.or their water treatment plants. There are no large freshwater flowing streams or surface waZer impoundments which could serve as alternative sources of'water. Ground water quality must be protected for potable use. 4.8 Water Supply 4. 6'. 1 Coil~er County Regional Water System Collier County Utilities has historically been the primary water purveyor serving the western portion of the County through three water and sewer districts for primarily urban use. The largest of these districts is the County Water and Sewer District (CWS District). The two remaining districts are the Marco Island and Sewer District and the Goodland Water District. The water system obtains its water supply from the raw water wellfield located east of County Road 951 off'Pine Ridge Road. This well field provides raw water to the existing South Water Treatment Plant and to the newer North County Regional Water Treatment Plant. The South County Regional Water Treatment Plant uses a conventional lime-softening process, and the North County Regional Treatment Plant utilizes membrane softening technology. The County has designed and will construct an expansion of'thc Nonh County Regional Water Treatment Plant from the 12-mgd existing capacity Camp Dresser & McKee coc2o~.oa 7t~aa? 4-15 5 to a 20-mgd capacity. mgd. Sec~t~ 4 The South County Regional Water Treatment Plant is currently rated at 12 With the expansion of the North County Regional Water Treatment Plant and the raw water wellfieid, the groundwater supply will be from two primary sources: the Lower Tamiami Aquifer and the Hawthorne Group, or uppermost unit of the Floridan aquifer. The Floridan aquifer system underlies most of Collier County and is separated fi'om the intermediate aquifer' system by a confining layer of low permeability. The water quality from the Fioridan aquifer can be considered brackish and highly mineraiized. 4.9 Ecologically Important Areas In the facilities plarming process, ecologically important areas must be identified so that measures can be taken to prevent their disruption and to maintain their continuing biological role. Class II waters prc vide potential shellfish harvesting areas, while estuarine marshes, swamps, and grass beds are productive nursery, breeding, and feeding grounds for many marine species. It is the intent oftbe facilities ptanning process to provide abatement solutions to any existing pollution related problems in the ecologically important waters ofthe planning area. It is further the goal ofthe planning process to provide alternative wastewater treatment system designs which are environmentally compat~ie with the existing ecological setting so that the long-term productivity ofthe natural systems can be The enwionmentally sensitive and critical areas of the Coastal Collier County 201 Facilities Planning Area have been designated by interest groups and governmental agencies. These areas are listed in Table 4-3. Figure 4-4 shows their location in Collier County. The Big Cypress National Preserve and the Big Cypress Addition represent the largest conservation and protection areas in the County and when completed would consist of 44 percent of the County's Camp Dresser & McKce CCX.~I.0,4 7ri,Vi7 4-.1 ? 12u .5 TABLE 4-3 COLLIER COUNTY 201 FACILITIES PLAN UPDATE SUMMARY OF LANDS RESERVED FOR CONSERVATION AND PROTECTiO]~ (Source: Collier County Natural Re$ource~ Compilation of Various State and Federal Reports) DESIGNATION TOTAL ACREAGE Belle Meade 15,767 Big Cypress National Preserve 428,912 Big Cypress Addition i 46,130 Collier Seminole State Park 6,423 Cor. kscrew Regional Ecosystem Watershed 45,368 Corkscrew Swamp 10,560 Clam Bay Conservation Ea.~'ment 570 Deinor Wiggins Pass State Recreational Area Everglades National Park 40,228 F~.ahatchee Strand State Preserve 74,374 Florida Panther National Wildlife Reserve 29,410 Golden Gate Estates South 41,000 Lely Barefoot Beach Preserve 342 Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Preserve 20,050 Ten Thou.~nd Islands National Wildlife Refuge 20,000 Camp Dres,~ & McKee CX:X.201.04 7rl4~7 4-18 12g 5 l..d I-- 0 r'~ Z Z 0 Z 0 land area (2,025 square miles). The Fakahatchee Strand State Preserve is also a large area reserved for conservation purposes and amounts to an additional 6 percent of the County's land area. These three areas, therefore, represent half of Collier County (Table 4-3). These ecologically fragile areas have in common a need for varying amounts of freshwater. Freshwater areas are vitally important to recharging the County's freshwater and groundwater systems. Estuarine areas are vitally important "nursery grounds" for many species ofmarine life, both sport and commercial. Collier County contains an assemblage ofecosystems that because of the variety and rarity of the species and animals present is unique in the United States. Rare and unique habitats within the County include Coastal dune and strand, xeric scrub and tropical hardwood hammocks. The most recent inventory of habitats and their distribution for Collier County is from the Florida Game and Freshwater Fish Commission. Satellite imagery taken on April 2, 1986, was used to estimate a variety of habitat types. Table 4-4 provides an inventory of these habitats as reported by the Florida Game and Freshwater Fish Commission. Up/and P/ant Communities Coastal Strand. Coastal strand occurs on well drained sandy soils and includes the typical zoned vesetation ofthe upper beach, nearby dunes, and coastal rock formations. Coastal strand generally occurs in a narrow band parallel to open waters of the Atlantic Ocean or Gulf of Mexico, and along the shores of some saline bays or sounds in both north and south Florida. This community occupies areas formed along high energy shorelines, and is influenced by wind, waves, and salt spray. Vegetation within this community typically consists of Iow growing vines, grasses, and herbaceous plants with very few small trees or large shrubs. Pioneer or early successional herbaceous vegetation characterizes the foredune and upper beach, while a gradual change to woody plant species occurs in more protected areas landward. Typical plant species include beach morning glory, railroad vine, sea Camp Dresser & McKee (::01.~31 .~4 7n4~7 4-19 12C 5 TABLE 4-4 COLLIER COUNTY 201 FACILITIES PLAN UPDATE HABITAT ACREAGE FOR COLLIER COUNTY HABITAT TYPE ACRES PERCENT Co~st~ St~nnd 47 0.00 Dry Prairie 29,769 2.18 Pinclan~.

Sea grape, cocoplum, and other tropical species are also found in this land-cover type in south Florida. The coastal strand community only includes the zone of early successional vegetation that lies between the upper beach, and more higl-dy developed communities landward. Adjacent or contiguous community types such as xeric oak scrubs, pinelands, or hardwood forests were classified and mapped respectively. Dry Prairie. Dry prairies are large native grass and shrub lands that occur on flat terrain interspersed with scattered cypress domes and strands, bayheads, isolated freshwater marshes, and hardwood hammocks. TMs community is characterized by many species ofgrasses, sedges, herbs, and shrubs, including saw palmetto, fetterbush, staggerbush, tar flower, gallberry, wiregrass, carpet grasses, and various types of bluestem grasses. The largest areas of these treeless plains historically occurred just north of Lake Okeechobee and they were subject to fi'equent fires. Many orthese areas have been converted to improved pasture. In central and south Florida, palmetto prairies, which consist of former pine flatwoods where the overstory trees have been thinned or removed, are also included in this category. These sites contain scattered pines that cover less than 15 percent oran area. Pinelands. The pinelands category includes several more specific groups of north and south Florida pine flatwoods, south Florida pine rocklands, and reluctantly, commercial pine plantations. Pine flatwoods occur on flat sandy terrain where the overstory is characterized by Iongleaf pine, slash pine, or pond pine. Generally, flatwoods dominated by longleafpine occur on well drained sites, pond pine is found in poorly drained areas, and slash pine occupies intermediate or moderately moist areas. The understory and ground cover within these three communities are somewhat similar and include several common species such as saw palmetto, gallberry, wax myrtle, and a wide variety ofgrasses and herbs. Wiregrass and runner oak dominate Iongleafpine sites, fetterbush and bay trees are found in pond pine areas, while saw palmetto, galiberry, and rusty lyonla occupy slash pine flatwoods sites. Cypress domes, bayheads, titi swamps, and fi'eshwater marshes are commonly interspersed in isolated depressions throughout this community type, and fire is a major source of natural disturbance. An additional pine flatwoods forest type occurs in extreme south Florida on rocklands where the overs'tory is the south Florida variety of slash pine, and tropical hardwood species occur in the Camp Dresser & McKee cc~o~.o~ ?t~97 4-21 Sec~bn 4 En~ronn'~r~a/ understory. Scrubby flatwoods are another pineland type that occur on drier ridges, and on or near old coastal dunes. Longleafpine or slash pine dominate the overstory, while the ground cover is similar to the xeric oak scrub community. Commercial pine plantations are also reluctantly included in the pinelands association. This class includes predominately planted slash pine, although longleai'pine and Ioblolly pine tracts also may fall under this classification. Sand pine plantations, which have been planted on prepared sandhill sit~s in the north Florida panhandle, may also be included in this category. An acceptably accurate separation of areas consisting of densely stocked native flatwoods and areas consisting of less densely s'locked pine stands with a closed canopy was not consistently possible. SInd Pine Scrub. Sand pine scrub occurs on well-drained, sorted, sterile sands deposited along former shorelines and islands of'ancient seas. This xeric plant community is dominated by an overslory of.sand pine and has an underslory of myrtle oak, Chapman's oak, sand-live oak, and scrub holly. Ground cover is usually sparse to absent, especially in mature stands, and rosemary and lichens occur in some open areas. Sites within the Ocala National Forest which have an overslory of direct seeded sand pine, and an intact underslory of'characteristic xeric scrub oaks, are also included in this category. Fire is an important ecological management tool, and commonly results in even-aged stands within regenerated sites. The disldbution of'this community type is almost entirely restricted to within the slate of'Florida. Sandhill. Sandhill communities occur in areas of rolling terrain on deep, well-drained, white to yellow, sterile sands. This xeric community is dominated by an overslory of scattered Iongleaf pine, along with an underslory of turkey oak and bluejack oak. The park-like ground cover consists of various grasses and herbs, including wiregrass, partridge pea, beggars tick, milk pea, queen's delight, and others. Fire is an important factor in controlling hardwood competition and other aspects of sandhill ecology. Although many of these sites throughout the slate have been modified through the selective or severe cutting of Iongleaf pine, these areas are slill included in the sandhill category. Camp Dresser & McKee 4-22 CCX.201.04 7,'14~7 Sec.'on 4 Environmental Inventory Xeric Oak Scrub. Oak scrub is a hardwood community typically consisting of clumped patches ot' Iow growing oaks interspersed with bare areas of white sand. This community occurs on areas of deep, well-washed, sterile sands and it is the same understory complex of scrubby oaks and other ground cover species that occurs in the sand pine scrub community. This condition frequently occurs when the short time periods between severe fires results in the complete removal of sand pine as an o' ,erstory species. Also included in this category are sites within the Ocala National Forest which have been clearcut, and are sometimes dominated during the first one to five years by the xeric oak scrub association. The xeric oak scrub community is dominated by myrtle oak. Chapman's oak, sand-live oak, scrub holly, scrub plum, scrub hickory, rosemary, and saw palmetto. Fire is important in setting back plant succession and maintaining viable oak scrubs. Mixed Hardwood-Pine Forest. This community is the southern extension of the Piedmont southern mixed hardwoods, and occurs mainly on the clay soils on the northern panhandle. Younger stands may be predominantly pines, while a complex of various hardwoods may be predominantly pines, while a complex of various hardwoods becomes co-dominant as the system matures over time through plant succession. The overstory consists of shorlleaf and Ioblolly pine. American beech, mockernut hickory, southern red oak, water oak, American holly, and dogwood. Also included in this category are less specific upland forest that occur statewide and contain a mixture of conifers and hardwoods as the co-dominant overstory component. These communities may contain long, leaf pine, slash pine, and Ioblolly pine in mixed association with live oak, laurel oak, and water oak, together with other hardwood species. Hardwood ltammocks and Forests, This class includes the major upland hardwood associations that occur statewide on fairly rich sandy soils. Variations in species composition, and the local or spatial distributions of these communities are due in part to differences in soil moisture regimes, soil types, and geographic location within the state. The major variations within this association are mesic hammocks, xeric hammocks, coastal and hydric hammocks, and live oak or cabbage palm hammocks. Camp Dresser & McKee 4-23 C01.201.04 7rl4/~? 12C 5' Sect/on 4 Environmental Inventory The mesic hammock community represents the climax vegetation type within many areas of not'them and central Florida. Characteristic species in the extreme north include American beech, southern magnolia, Shumard oak, white oak, mockernut hickory, pignut hickory, sourgum, basswood, white ash, mulberry, and spruce pine. Mesic hammocks of the peninsula are less diverse due to the absence of hardwood species, which are adapted to more northerly climates, and are characterized by laurel oak, hop hornbeam, blue-beech, sweetgum, cabbage palm, American holly, and southern magnolia. Xeric hammocks occur on deep, well-drained, sandy soils where fire has been absent for long periods of time. These open, dry hammocks contain live oak, sand-live oak, bluejack oak, southern red oak, sand-post oak, and pignut hickory. Coastal and hydric hammocks are relatively wet hardwood forests that are found between uplands and true wetlands. These sometimes seasonally wet forests are associated with some non-alluvial peninsula streams, scattered broad lowlands, and are also found in a narrow band along paris of the Gulf and Atlantic coasts where they often extend to the edge of coastal salt marshes. These communities contain water oak, red maple, Florida elm, cabbage palm, red cedar, blue-beech, and sweetgum. Live oak and cabbage palm hammocks are often found bordering large lakes and dyers, and are distributed throughout the prairie region of south central Florida and extend northward in the St. John's River basin. These communities may occur as mixed stands of oak and palm, or one of these species can completely dominate an area. Tropical Hardwood Hammock. These upland hardwood forests occur in extreme south Florida and are characterized by tree and shrub species on the northern edge of a range which extends southward into the Caribbean. These communities are sparsely distributed along coastal uplands south of a line from about Vero Beach on the Atlantic coast to Sarasota on the Gulf coast. They occur on many tree islands in the Everglades and on uplands throughout the Florida Keys. This cold-sensitive tropical community has very high plant species diversi~, sometimes containing over 35 species of trees and about 65 species of shrubs. Characteristic tropical plants include strangler fig, g umbo-limbo, mastic, bustic, lancewood ironwoods, poisonwood, pigeon plum, Jamaica dogwood, and Bahama lysiloma. Live oak and cabbage palm are also sometimes found within this community. Tropical hammocks in Camp Dresser & McKee 4-24 C:0¢.2'01.04 7/14~7 the Florida Keys may ~lso contain several plants, including lignum vitae, mahogany, thatch palms, and manchineel, which are extremely rare within the United States. Wet/and Plant Communities Coastal Salt Marshes. These herbaceous and shrubby wetland communities occur statewide in blackish waters along protected low evergy estuarine shorelines of the Atlantic and C-ulfcoasts. The largest continuous areas of salt marsh occur north of the range of mangroves, and border tidal creeks, bays, and sounds. Salt marshes are sometimes interspersed within mangrove areas, and also occur as a transition zone between freshwater marshes and mangrove forests such as in the Ten Thousand Islands area along the southwest Florida Coast. Plant distribution within salt marshes is largely dependent or. the degree of tidal inundation, and many large areas axe completely dominated by one species. Generally, smooth cord-grass typically occupies the lowest elevations immediately adjacent tot tidal creeks and pools, while black needlerush dominates less frequently inundated zones. The highest elevations form transitional areas characterized by glasswort, saltwort, saltgrass, sea oxeye daisy, marsh elder, and saltbrush. For the purposes oft. his project, cordgrass, needlerush, and transitional or high salt marshes are collectively mapped as this single category. Freshwater March and Wet Prairie. These wetland communities are dominated by a wide assortment of herbaceous plant species growing on sand, clay, marl, and organic soils in areas of variable water depths and inundation regimes. Generally, freshwater marshes occur in deeper, more strongly inundated situations and are characterized by tall emergent and floating-leaved species. Freshwater marshes occur within depressions, along broad, shallow lake and river shorelines, and are scattered in open areas within hardwood and cypress swamps. Also, other portions of freshwater lakes, rivers and canals which are dominated by floating-leaved plants such as lotus, spatter dock, duck weed, and water hyacinths are included in this category. Wet prairies commonly occur in shallow, periodically inundated areas and are usually dominated by aquatic grasses, sedges, and their associates. Wet prairies occur as scattered, shallow depressions within dry prairie areas and on marl prairie areas in south Florida. Also included in this category are areas in southwest Florida with Camp Dresser & McKee 4-25 C~1.04 7/14/~7 5 Sac6on 4 Environma~al tnvantoot scatterod dwarr cypress having less than 20 percent canopy coverage, and a dense ground cover of freshwater marsh plants. Marshes and wet prairies are dominated by various combinations of pickerel week, sawgrass, maidencane, arrowhead, fire flag, cattail, spike rush, bulrush, white water lily, water shield, and various sedges. Many marsh or wet prairie types, such as sawgrass march or maidencane prairie, have been described and so named based on their dominant plant species. Cypress Swamp. These regularly inundated wetlands form a forested border along large rivers, creeks, and lakes, or occur in depressions as circular domes or linear strands. These communities are strongly dominated by either bald cypress or pond cypress, with very Iow numbers of scattered black gum, red maple, and sweetbay. Understory and ground cover are usually sparse due to frequent flooding but sometimes include such species as buttonbush, lizard's tail, and various rems. Mixed Hardwood Swamp. These wooded wetland communities are composed of'either pure stands of hardwoods, or occur as a mixture of hardwoods and cypress. This association orwetland adapted tre~,s occurs throughout the state on organic soils and forms the forested floodplain of non-alluvial rivers, creeks, and broad lake basins. Tree species include a mixed overstory containing black gum, water tupelo, bald cypress, dahoon holly, red maple, swamp ash, cabbage palm and sweetbay. Bottomland Hardwood Forest. These wetland forests are composed ora diverse assortment of hydric hardwoods which occur on the rich alluvial soils of silt and clay deposited along several panhandle rivers including the Apalachicola. These communities are characterized by an overstory that includes water hickory, overcup oak, swamp chestnut oak, river birch, American sycamore, red maple, Florida elm, bald cypress, blue-beech, and swamp ash. Bay Swamp. These hardwood swamps contain broadleafevergreen tress that occur in shallow, stagnant drainages or depressions often found within pine flatwoods, or at the base of sandy ridges where seepage maintains constantly wet soils. The soils, which are usually covered by abundant layer of leaf litter, are mostly acidic peat or much which remain saturated for long periods but over which lit-tie water level fluctuation occurs. Overstory trees within bayheads are dominated by sweetbay, Camp Dresser & McKee co¢.~.0~ ?~4~ 4-2~ Env#onmenta//nventoty swamp bay, and Ioblolly bay. Depending on the location within thc state, othcr species including pond pine, slash pine blackgum, cypress, and Atlantic whitc cedar can occur as scattered individuals, but bay trees dominate the canopy and characterize the community. Understory and ground cover species may include dahoon holly, wax myr/,Ic, fetterbustL grcenbriar, royal fcm, cinnamon fern, and sphagnum moss. Shrub Swamp. Shrub swamps are wetland communities dominated by dense, Iow-growing, woody shrubs or small trees. Shrub swamps are usually characteristic of`wetland areas lhat are experiencing environmental change, and are early to mid-successional in species complement and structure. These changes are a result of' natural or man-induced perturbations due to increased or decreased hydroperiod, fire, clear cutting or land cleating, and siltation. Shrub swamps statewide may be dominated by one species, such as willow, or an array of opportunistic plants may form a dense, Iow canopy. Common species include willow, was myrtle, primrose willow, buttonbush, and saplings of' red maple, sweetbay, black gum, and other hydric tree species indicative of'wooded wetlands. In northern Florida, .some shrub swamps are a fire-maintained subclimax of bay swamps. These dense shrubby areas are dominated by black titi, swamp cyrilla, fetterbuslL sweet pepperbuslL doghhobble, large gallberry, and myrtle-leaf holly. Mangrove Swamp. These dense, brackish water swamps occur along Iow-enerKy shorelines and in protected, tidally influenced bays of southern Horida. This community is composed offi'eeze- sensitive tree species that are distributed south ora line from Cedar Key on the Gulfcoast to St. Augustine on the Atlantic coast. These swamp communities are usually dominated by red, black, and white mangroves that progress in a sere fi.om seaward to landward areas, respectively, while buttonwood trees occur in areas above high tide. Openings and transitional areas in mangrove swamps .sometimes contain glasswort, saltwort, and other salt marsh species. All three major species of mangroves are mapped as a single class with no effort made to differentiate these species into separate zones. Camp Dresser & McKee C:(:~L201 ~4 7n4,~7 4--27 12u .5 Open Water Section 4 Inventory Open Water. This community is comprised ofthe open water areas of inland fi'eshwater lakes, ponds, rivers and creeks, and the brackish and saline waters of estuaries, bays, tidal creeks, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Atlantic Ocean. Disturbed Communities Grassland and Agriculture. These areas are dominated by low-growing herbaceous vegetative cover on intensively managed sites such as row crops, improved pastures, lawns, golf courses, road shoulders, cemeteries, or weedy, fallow agricultural fields, etc. This very early successional category includes all sites with herbaceous vegetation during the time period between bare ground, and the shrub and brush stage, as well as agricultural fields of all types. Shrub and Brushland. This association includes a variety of situations where natural upland community types have been recently disturbed through clear-cutting commercial pinelands, land clearing, or fire, and are recovering through natural suogessional processes. This type could be characterized as an early condition of old field succession, and the community is dominated by various shrubs, tree saplings, and lesser amounts of grasses and herbs. Common species include was myrtle, saltbush, sumac, elderbeny, saw palmetto, blackberry, gallberry, fetterbush, staggerbush, broomsedge, and dog fennel, together with oak, pine, and other tree seedlings or saplings. Exotic Plant Communities. Upland and wetland areas dominated by non-native trees that were planted or have escaped and invaded native plant communities. These exotics include melaleuca, Australian pine, Brazilian pepper, and eucalyptus. Barren and Urban Land. This class includes highly reflective unvcgetated areas such as roads, beaches, active strip mines, tilled agricultural sites, and cleared land on sandy soils. Unvegetated sites in urban areas which include rooftops of'buildings, athletic fields, landfills, and parking lots, etc., are Camp Dre&~ & McKee ooc=o~.o4 ?ri,m? 4-28 also included in this category. Vegetated tracts within urban areas are classified and mapped according to their predominate vegetation cover or plant community type. 4.10 Listed Species The State of Florida and United States recognize several wildlife species ofplants and animals as needing protection to ensure their continued survival, Their status in Florida az endangered or threatened species is defined under the following conditions. · Endangered Plants or animals in imminent danger or extinction or expiration if the deleterious factors affecting them continue to operate. These are forms whose numbers have already been reduced to such a critically Iow level or whose habitat has been drastically reduced or degraded the immediate action is required to prevent their loss. · Threatened Forms believed likely to become endangered in the near future ifthe causal factors now at work continue to operate. Included in this category are species in which most or all populations are decreasing because of'over-exploitation or environmental disturbance; species whose populations have been heavily depleted by adverse factors and while not actually endangered, are still in critical condition; and species which may still be relatively abundant, but are under threat from serious adverse factors throughout their range. Table 4-5 is a list of wildlife which is considered endangered and potentially endangered. Camp Dresser & McKee C0L2~.04 7fl~7 :i.~C 5 .5 Listed species known to occur in the planning area include the Bald Eagle, Florida Scrub Jay, Gopher Tortoise, and the Eastern Indigo Snake. The area also includes habitat for several of' the listed wading and sea shore birds, common snook, and West Indian Manatee. 4.11 Parks, Recreations and Open Space Tourists related recreational facilities in the Collier County Planning significantly impac~ the economy of the area due to the large winter tourist population. The 1989 Collier County Growth Management Plan's Recreation and Open Space Sub-element adopted a standard of service of 1.2882 acres of community park land per 1,000 population and 2.9412 acres of regional park land per 1,000 population. This was pursuant to an established goal ofthis sub-element which is stated as: "Provide sufficient parks, recreation facilities and open space areas to meet the needs of residents and visitors of Collier County." Tables 4-6 and 4-7 taken from the Comprehensive Plan list the recreational facilities in and surrounding the Planning Area. In order to achieve the stated goal, the Growth Management Plan's Recreation and Open Space Sub- element (amended May 1992) lists six objectives that need to be realized. · Ensure that a comprehensive system of parks and recreation facilities is available. · Protect designated recreation sites and open spaces through development of appropriate design criteria and land use regulations.

The location of the six packase treatment plants and two PSC regulated facilities are also indicated on Figure 5..4. 5.3.3 Wastewater Flows The infrastructure requirements for collecting and treating existing and future wastewater flows are based on several wastewater flow and load parameters, These flow parameters are the averase day, maximum 3-month average day, and the maximum month average day which are typically used to determine the capacity of the wssttwvater treatment and collection systems. The wsstcwater flow and load parameters are defined ss follows: Average Daily Flow (ADF) is the average of the daily volumes for a continuous 12 month period expressed in gallons per day.

'" Carbonaceous Biochemical Oxygen Demand (CBODs) indicates the quantity o£oxygen used by microorganisms in the ,,¢robic stablliz~,tion ofw~tewater. This v~lue is used to define the strength of' municipal w~stewater and to evaluate tbe efficiency of'treatment facilities by measuring oxygen demand remaining in the effluent. · Total Suspended Solids (TSS) refers to the nonfilterable res[due that is retained on a glass-fiber disk m'~er filtration of'a s~mple of'w~tewater. The flow parameters described in this section ~ based on historic monthly operating data. Wastewater flow data ~ reviewed for the North County Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility (NCRWWTF), Pelican Bay Was~ew~ter Treatment Facility (PBWWTF), and the South County Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility (SCRWWTF). The wastewater flows treated at the regional treatment facilities are predominateJy domestic waste., with contributions from commercial establishments and light industrial sources, Wastewater flow rates for each of'the County's treatment facilities are shown in Table 5-7. This table lists the average d~ily flow (ADF), maximum 3-month average daily flow (3-month Al)F) and the maximum month average daily flow (MMADF) for the pa~l five years (1991-1995). Ctmp Dres.ser & McKee c,:~l.~ 7w~,~7 5-18 12C 5 Average Daily Flow Sectk)n 5 Cun~nt S#ueOon Averase daily flow (ADF) is used to review the wastewater system capacity and performance. The average daily wastewater flow rate and strength vary due to climatic conditions, as well as population fluctuations. Figure 5-5 shows the growth trend in the combined annual average daily flows ror the County's wsstewater system. This figure shows the increasing flows relative to increa.~in8 population. Collier County is subject to seconal cycles in population and ndnfall. An increase in seasonal population impacts the quantity and strength of the wastewater flows generated during the fail and winter months. This is due to an incr*,,ase in part-time residents a~d tourists during these months (November through March). The w~ewater flows also increase during the summer months (July through October) due to precipitation. During these months, the flow rates entering the plants increase due to ini~ltration and inflow (I/]) as a result or'collection system inflow increased groundwater levels. Figure 5-6 ~nd 5-7 show the correlation between average daily flows for each month and the effects of both or'the sea~ on,,I population and rainfall cycles for the north and south service areas, respectively. Maximum 3-Month Average Daily Flow The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (TDEP) requires utilities to use the Maximum 3-Month Average Daily Flow vtlue to determine compliance w~th established regulatory requirements for pia~uzing, design, and construction ofwastewater facilities. The FDEP requires routine comparison of'flows being treated at the wastewater facilities with the permitted capacities of the treatment, residuaJs` reuse, and disposal facilities. The FDEP rules state that when the Maximum 3-Month Average Daily Flow exceeds 50 percent ot'the permitted capacity of'the treatment plant or reuse and disposal system, the owner is required to submit a Capacity Analysis Report (CAR). Generally, the CAR should review the historical flows and loads for the past ]0 years (or length of time the plant been operating, if less than ]0 years) as well as the projected population, flows and loads for the next ]0 year~. Tizis rule lays out the timetable for submitting a CAR along with outl{~n8 the timetable for planning, design, and construction of new or expanded wastewater treatment facilities.

There is one package pleat within this planning conununity that is ~ticipeted to ~ome off'line. Central Naples (North Service Area) The Central Naples plazming community is adjacent to the City of'Naples: this planning community is split by the North Service Area and the South Service Aret The north portion ofthe Central Naples plazmlng community is served by the NCRWWTF, with the reminder of'the planning commu~ty served by the SCRWV/TF. This area is zoned pr{manly tesldentlal, with a small portion consisting of conservation/preservation. As of March 1996 there were approximately 850 dwelling units being served by the NCRWWTF. It is projected'~Eet this Planning community will experience the largest amount of growth around Pine Ridge Road and ~umre Livingston Road. Golden Gate (North Service Area) The Golden C~e planing ~nJty is I~i~l ~n the central portion ofthe county. Tl~s planning community is split bY the North Service Area and the South Service Area. At the present time, there is no wastewater service provided by Colher County in the north portion of the Golden Gate plan~n8 community. This area ~S'belng se~ed by either Flor{da Cities Water, Inc. or by pr{v~te septic systems. The majority ofthis area is zoned estate residential, undeveloped and commercial. It is projected that growth in this plarming community will not result in.any increased flows to the NCRWINTF, because the county does not anticipate taking over Flor{da Cities Water, lnc.'s wastewater collection system 0~;'prc~ding wsstew~tter service to estate zoned lots. Rural Estates The Rural Estates planning community encompasses the majority of the northeastern portion of the County, with only two TAZs lying within the North Service Area. At the present time only the North Camp Dresser & McKee ~-10 CCX,,~I.~ 12C 5 County Regional Water Treatment Facility and a mobile home community are being served by the NCRWWTF. The land uses within the Rural Estates planning community consist primarily ot'estate residential and aress of' consen~tlon/preserwtion. So~l~ Service Area The South Service Area includes the following six Planning Communities; Central Naples, Golden Gs'e, East Naples, South Naples, Royal Falcapalm and Marco. The South Naples Service area is anticipated to experience steady, but slower growth than the North Service Area for the next ten years. Areas or'high, medium, and Iow growth, based on the number ot'anticlpated dwelllng units, are shown in Figure 6-3. The population associated with this dwelling unit growth is shown in Figure 6-4. The population projections t'or the South Service Area are slightly below the Collier County South Sewer Comprehensive Planning Sections July 1, 1996 projections. The increase in the population projection t'or 2000 is attributed to the PSC regulated treatment facilities and package plants coming off' line. Central Naples (South Service Area) The south portion or'the Central Naples plannlng C°mmunity is adjacent to the City or'Naples and south of Golden Gate Canal. The south portion ofthe Central Naples planning community is served by the SCRWWTF. This area is zoned primarily residential, with a small portion consisting of conservation/preservation. It is projected that this planning community will experience moderate to slow growth. Golden Gate (South Service Area) The Golden Gate planning community is located in the central portion of'the county with the south portion lying between Golden Gate Canal and Davis Boulevard. The majority ot'this area is zoned estate residential, undeveloped and commercial. As of'March 1996 there were approximately 4,910 dwelling units served by the SCRWWTF, with the remainder of'the area being served by either Florida Cities Water, Inc. or private septic systems.

It is projected that this pla~tnins community will experience moderate to siow growth throughout the planning commmity, because most ofthis area is approaching build-out. South Naples The South Naples planning community (5) is located in the southwestern portion of the coumy. The entire South Naples plannlnS community is located within the South Service Area. This plannlns community is be{ns served by the SCRWWTF, but includes areas ~ by private septic systems. The majority of the land use within the South Naples planning community is residential with some of the remaining land uses being conservation/preservation, agr{cultund and commercial. As of Match 1996 there were approximately 9,0~0 dwelling units served by the SCRWW3T. It is projected that this planning community will experlence high growth between 1-75 and Davis Boulevm'd and also gong the north side ot' East U.S. 41. Increasing wutcwater flows are also expected at the treatment facilities, because three private package plants and two PSC regulated package plants located within this planning community are projected to come off line.

B~cl on this ird'orn~tion ~xl the trend of increasing per capita flow~ years 1993 through 1996 are selected for establishing ~n LOS standard. Pet capita w~stew~tet flows during these years averaged 145 ~lions pet capita pet day (gpcd). Using this ird'ormation, flows and wastewatet treatment and transmission requirements for nc.rth service area of the 201 planning area are projected based on 145 gl)cd since an increasln$ trend was observed in the data. This value includes base wastewater flow, groundwater infiltration and rain-induced in~ltration and inflow. Table 6-6 presents the per capita wastewatcr flows {'or the South County Regional Wutewatet Treatment Facility (SCRWWTF) along with rainfall data. The data shows a per capita flow 0£88 gpcd bued on six years of'data. The effluent flow d~ta does not include the flow to the onsite percolation ponds. The data does not indicate a correlation between rainfall and pet capita flows; the lowest per capita occurs in 1995 which had an abnormally large amount ofralnfall. The lack of co-relation between ndnfall and pet capita flow is due to use ofthe onsite petcolatlon ponds which are unmetered during the wet season when reuse sites accept less water. A planning level pet capita flow or' 120 gl)cd will be used for the south service aret This value is reasonable based on wastewater flows in similar communities and the per capita water use (185 gl)d) in Collier County. Modifications to the SCRWWTF will provide an effluent flow meter. Per capita flows should he monitored and the level of'service updated based on the Esture flows.

Agricultural sites can be added to a regional reuse system to provide additional effluent disposal capacity as wastewater flow increases, This alternative is not considered further for Collier County due to the limited amount ofagricultural lands located in the service area. 7.2.3 Industrial Reuse Industrial reuse consists of replacing potable water, groundwater, or surface water with reclaimed water in industrial applications. Most commonly, reclaimed water is used in cooling towers. The reclaimed water must usually be treated to advanced levels to be acceptable for use in cooling towert To date, the county has not identified any potential industrial users in the planning area. However, industrial reuse is an option for future expansion ofthe reuse system. Because higher levels of treatment arc gencraily required for industrial reuse than for agricultural or mban reuse, it is a more expensive alternative and is not evaluated further at this time. 7.2.4 Deep Well Injection Deep well injection includes pumping treated effluent 2,000 to 3,500 feet below ground to a geologic region that is isolated from the potable water supply. Because ofthe nature ofthis disposal method, Camp Dresser & McKee ccx..2o.Lo7 ~7 7-13 Sect/on 7 Wasfewater Manageme~ Agema6Ve~ the government agencies responsible for the permitting of'deep injection wells continue to proceed cautiously, particularly when the deep well is considered the primary means of'effluent disposal. FDEP goals are to promote reuse and permit use ofdeep wells as a means of'wet weather management t'or effluent disposal and not as the primary effluent disposal option unless a back-up well is provided. The county has installed a deep injection well at the South County Regional V,'astewater Treatment Facility (SCRWWIT) and is planning to connect the North County Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility (NCRWWTF) to the existing deep well at the North County Water Treatment Plant as pan of'the wet weather management plan tot reclaimed water to be used as back- up disposal during times or'low reclaimed water demand. The use of'deepwell injection as primary disposal is not consistent with the goals and objectives or'the Florida Department of'Environmental Protection and SFWMD and the state water policy. All of'the reuse options utilize deep well injection for wet weather management while Option No. I uses deep well injection for primary disposal since less than 75 percent of'the wastewatet is reused. 7.2.5 Percolation Ponds Percolation ponds use percolation through the underlying soil to dispose ofwastewater effluent. The success of'percolation ponds depends on the soil and groundwater characteristics ofthe site. In the planning area, groundwater tables are high, often within I to 2 feet ofground surface. Percolation of large volumes oreffluent could not be achieved with these conditions. The county currently makes use of'percolation ponds at both treatment plants; however FDEP has issued a Consent Order in pan due to the inability of the percolation ponds to adequately dispose ofeffuent as evidenced in documented pond overflows. Because ofthe limited disposal capacity ofpercolation ponds in this pan of Florida, percolation ponds have been eliminated as a primary means ofeffluent disposal and are not evaluated further. Camp Dresser & McKee 7-14 7.2.6 Man-Made Wetland Disposal The release of reclaimed water to a man-made wetland can provide benefits to the environment by cre~tin8 or maintaining ex~stin8 wetlands as well as providing for a method ofwet weather manasement. Historically much ofthe land in Collier County was wetland. However, as a result of d~tching and draining to allow for urban activities, n~.ny wetland systems have been destroyed or Permitting efforts and operational monitoring associated with man-made wetlands can be significant. A Water Quality Based Ef~uent Limitation (WBEL) may be required to determine the impact of Ibc wetland discharge on the receiving water body quality. Additionally, minimum treatment to AWT quality is required prior to discharge to man-made wetlands. Because ofthe high treatment requirements the need for large tracts ofland for a wetland system, and considering the exlstin8 development and projected land use in the north and south se~ce areas, this option is not eva~uated 7.2. 7 Land Application W/th Spray Irrigation Spray irrigation ofgol£courses and residential pmpenles is intended to provide reclaimed water in place of groundwater or potable water supplies. However, where recla/med water is applied to sites which Mve been plowed but are not planted, it can serve to prov/de effluent disposaL A covet crop is required to facilitate nutrient uptake, and this crop can be harvested for livestock feed in some cases. Development ora dedicated spray~eld has the advantaEe that techimed water applications ate under · e control of'the utility and not subject to the aesthetic crheria applied to landscape irrisafion. As w/th percolation ponds, the total disposal capac/ty ora spra~eld is limited by the high condit/on prevalent in the project area and the area required for inigation. T~is ~ernative is not evaluated further, due to the limited land awJlable tot dedicated sprayfielch, and the limited capadty ofsprayfields in this part of'Florida. Camp Dresser & McKee I:X:~,201.07 ~tta~f 7.1S 7.2.8 Surface Water Discharge 120 5 Wa~tewater Management Due to the location or'the service ~rca and characterization of surface water bodies in the area, a direct surface water discharge as a pr/mary means ofeffluent disposal does not appear perm/ttable to the surface waters located in the study area. Because or'the potential impacts to receivinl~ waters and the difficulty in obtaining a permit to discharge into the area surface waters, this alternative is not evaluated further. 7.3 Treatment System Alternatives The county is committed to provide effluent disposal through urban reuse. State ofl:lorida regulations require secondary treatment with filtration and high level disinfection (advanced secondary treatment) for public access irr/gation systen~. Because ofthis requirement and the county's commitment to the reuse system, the treatment level provided for all wast~ter treatment options will be advanced secondary treatment (AST). The wdlt~eld augmentation reuse option requires additional effluent treatment beyond AST. 7.3.1 No Action Alternative - AltematA~e I This alternative involves use of the ex/sting SCRWWTF, NCRWWTF and the Pelican Bay Wt,FIT with no upgrades or expansions to accommodate future growth and remedlate ex/sfin8 problems with the facilities. 7.3.2 Optimization of Existing Treatment Plants. Altema~ve II The county currently operates three treatment plants. Two ofthese, the NCRWWTF and the Pelican Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant ~) are located in the north se~ce area. The SCRWWTF is located in the south service area. This option considers the continued operation ofthe NCRWWTF and the SCRWWTF to provide AST for effluent disposal in the urban reuse system. The expansion of'the two treatment plants will be phased to allow minimum unused plant capacity and mst savings. Camp Dresser & McKee 7-1~ The NCRWWTF will be expanded to a total capacity of 13.5 mgd by the w, ar 2000 and to 18.5 mgd by the year 2016 to provide treatment through the planning period. At the time or'the first expansion to 13.5 mgd by the year 2000, the Pelican Bay WWTP will be taken otTllne and flow diverted to the NCRWWTF. The SCRWWTF will be expanded to a total capacity of 10.$ mgd by the year 2005 and to 13 mgd by the year 2015 to provide treatment through the planning period. 7.3.3 Existing Treatment Plants with Interconnect. Alternative !11 Alternative III includes the continued operation of the NCRWWTF and the SCRWW'rF to provide AST for effluent disposal in the urban reuse system. An interconnect pipeline will be constructed to allow transfer of raw wastewater between the treatment facilities. The NCRWWTF will be expanded to a total capacity of 13,5 mgd by the year 2000 and the Pelican Bay WWTP will be taken offline and flow diverted to the NCRWWTF. The interconnect will be constructed by 2005. In 2012, the NCRWV, rlT will be expanded to 23.5 mgd to provide treatment through the planning period. 7.4 Collection and Transmission System Alternatives The county currently has plans to provide wnstewatet collection service to one area located in the north service ~rea. The remaining unserved areas will remain at low development density with wastewater service provided by on-site disposal systems (septic tanks). This collection system expansion plan is identical for the two treatment plant alternatives: optimization ofthe two existing facilities and interconnec'Jng the two treatment plants. The county has plans to remove existing package wastewater treatment plants from service by the year 2005. The transmission system will need to be extended to pmvicle connection ofthese plants. Table 7-6 provides the schedule for removing package treatment plants from ser~ce. Camp Dresser & McKee (::0L.201.07 &qa/g7 7-17 5 TABLE 7-6 COLLI~P.

Altemative Ii This alternative involves using the existing system to provide wastewater transmission with expansion as needed to provide t'or collection system expansion and removal of'package plants from service. The existing pipes and master pump stations will remain in service as long as there is adequate hydraulic capacity then may be replaced with larger pipe or parallel pipes installed. Figures 7-3 and 7-4 provide the wastewater transmission laYOut and wastewater treatment facility locations £or the north and south service areas for this alternative. 7.4.3 Interconnected Transmission System.

This alternative includes providing service to new collection areas as well as removal of'existing package treatment plants fi'om service. Figures 7-3 and 7-4 provide the wastewater transmission layout and wastewater treatment facility locations for this alternative. 7.5 Development of Wastewater Management Program Alternatives Several wastewater management alternatives have been developed based upon the options outlined in the previous sections, regulatory considerations, and considerations of compatibility with the county's existing wastewater management system. These alternatives are presented in the following sections to provide an analysis of possible wastewater management programs.

Wa~tewater Management Altemativea Wastewater service is currently provided by a combination ofcounty utility system, private utilities, paclcage treatment facilities and onsite septic tank systems. The areas served by septic tanks will remain low density per county requirements. The population in Collier County continues to grow with development primarily occurring in areas which are currently serviced by central sewers. As the populatlon continues to fill in the developed areas and the resulting density increases, the county-owned treatment facilities will not be able to meet the requirements ofthe customer base. Without any planning to improve and expand the county's wastewatet utility system, there may be an increase in small package treatment facilities needed to serve condominium and apartment complexes as well as commercial developments. The proliferation of package plants and inability of'the existing treatment plants at their current capacity to meet the fi~ture wastewater treatment demands does not meet the county's goal ofpollution abatement. In addition, the continued operation ofthe existing effluent disposal system and consideration of citizen concerns does not promote environmental protection ot conservation of natural resources and does not meet the requirements o£the exlstin8 Consent Order or requests oflocal residents, Based on these considerations, the no action alternative will not be evaluated ~unher. 7. 5. 2 Optimization of Existing Wastewater Facilifl'es - Alternative II This alternative involves the immediate expansion of the NCRWWTF as outlined in Section 7.3 and ~uture expansion ofthe existing facilities. The wastewater treatment, collection and transmission systems will be expanded as needed to provide service to the areas identified by the county and to remove existing package plants fi.om service as previously outlined. Effluent disposal will continue to be provided primarily through u~an reuse. 7.5.3 Interconnected Regional Treafment Facl7ities -Alternative III T~s alternative involves the immediate modification ofthe NCRWWTF as outlined in Section 7.3, and the construction of the interconnect pipeline with the required booster pumping fac~Tm/to Camp Dresser & McKee co~? a~a~7 7-20 12C pro,~cle the mbiIity to tr~s£er ~mstewmter flo~ between th~ two tremtment · ,wstew~ter tremtment, collection m~cl trm~t~i~on ly~tem ~]! be exl~d~ u prov~cl~ ~e~ce to the ~ |clent~ie(l by the County ~ to remo~ pm¢lcm~e treatment pIm~t~ from servi¢~ mJ previously outIinecL ~..flluent di~)o~m] ~ll ~ontinue to be prodded prima~ly through urb~ reuse. Camp Dresser & McKee 7-21 CCX.2Q1.Q7 &'1~,!7 :: 5 Section 8 Plan Selection 8.1 General The wastewater management alternatives developed in Section 7 are discussed in greater detail and evaluated in this section. 8.1.1 Effluent Disposal Options Urban reuse will be used for all wastewater management alternatives. In order to meet State of Florida water quality requirements, advanced secondary treatment which includes filtration and high level disinfection is required. The quantity ofreclaimed water available for the two treatment plant options will not change. The size ofpipes used in the urban system as well as the layout will vary between the options, resulting in different capital costs and O&M costs for each option. 8.1.2 Treatment Alternatives There are two wastewater treatment alternatives identified for the 201 Facilities Plan Update study area: two regional treatment plants or two interconnected regional treatment plants. The county has idtntified a reuse as the primary means of effluent disposal. Because of'this effluent disposal method. both wastewater treatment alternatives provide advanced secondary treatment for et~ent disposal primarily through urban reuse. Use ofwellfield augmentation for effluent disposal would require further treatment (reverse osmosis) ofthe effluent. Camp Dresser &: McI~ee CCX..201 .O~ 7/14~7 Sectk~ 8 8.1.3 Transmission System Alternatives Section 7 discussed the transmission options with For treatment plants and with and without an interconnect pipeline. The required size of'the pump stations and Force mains were calculated using per capita flow representing residential, commercial, and light industrial flows of 145 gallons per day per person in the north service area and 120 gallons per day per person in the south service area. Pump station peaking Factors of'2.$ to 4.0 were used based on population served by each ms=er pump station. Pipe flow velocities were limited to a maximum of 9 Feet per second. 8.2 Evaluation of Alternatives The wastewater management alternatives are evatuated based on economic analysis, environmental impacts, social concerns, and ease of'implementation. Each or'these evaluation criteria ate discussed regarding the alternatives being reviewed. 8.2.1 Economic Analysis Alternatives were compared on a present worth basis. The present worth cost of'each a~ternative includes capital costs, operation and maintenance costs, salvage value, revenue generated fi'om the sale of'the reclaimed water and potable water savings as a result of'using reclaimed water For irrigation. ^ present worth cost analysis provides a true indication of'the alternative "life c3~:le" cost over a 20-year period. In accordance with FDEP considerations, the costs reported in the Following paragraphs are planing level estimates and should be considered accurate to within ±10 percent. Therefore, all alternatives are considered approximately equal it'their total present worth is within 4-10 percent. Camp Dresser & McKee C(:~,.201.0~ 71¶4~7 12C 5 The present worth values were calculated using an 8 percent interest rate over the 20-year review period and a power cost o£$0.075 per kilowatt-hour. In addition, the followln8 considerations are included in the present worth analysis: O&M costs are generally based on EPA O&M curves included in CD-$3 (EPA Innovative ~d Ahemative Assessment Manual, Feb. 1980, valuea adjusted as noted ebov~). Legal and Administration: 2 percent ofconstruction cost. A present worth analysis was used to evaluate the four urban reuse options described in Section ?. Table 8-1 summarizes the costs for the four reuse options. Option 2 has the lowest present worth and is the recommended reuse option, Costs were developed for the transmission, treatment, and selected effluent disposal alternatives and are presented in Table 8-2. A detailed breakdown of the present worth analysis is provided in Appendix C. These costs were developed by using bid prices ~'om recent projects in the area as weft as existing operation and maintenance costs. Based upon the alternatives developed in Section 7, two wastewater management options will be considered in greater detail. Alternative II: Two regional wastewater treatment plants with effluent disposal through mban reuse, residuals disposal through marketing and dism'bution, collection system expansion to an identified area, and transmission system expansion to remova package plants fi'om service. Alternative IH: Two regional interconnected wastewater treatment plants with effluent disposal through urban reuse, residuals disposal through marketing and distn'btnion, collection system expansion to an identified area, and transmission system expansion to remove package plants from service.

The benefits of each alternative are also considered in the evaluation. The benefits include: reduction in potable water demand, odor a~,l noise minimization, and reduction in impacted land and surface water. Reuse of effluent for residential and golf'course irrigation has been identified by the county as a goal. The primary benefit resulting fi.om the implementation ora reclaimed water system is conservation of' potable water. Using reclaimed water for this purpose makes use of'a valuable resource which might otherwise be wasted. In addition, reclaimed water systems provide an irrigation water supply which is not subject to restrictions during drought periods while providing pollution abatement by elimination or discharge (surface water, deep well, etc.). The design of'the treatment plants will include odor control as well as suppression of.glare from the plant lighting system. Buffer zones around ail the treatment and transmission fadlities will be provided in accordance with FDEP rules and county requirements. Vegetation will be used for screening where appropriate, and all reasonable measures will be taken to minimize the impact upon residents of Collier County. 8.2.3 Implementability The implementability of an alternative considers permits required, land acquisition, land use and zoning, and need for inteflocal agreements. Both alternatives require similar permits for construction and operation of the treatment plants, transmission system, and reclaimed water system. The transmission and reuse systems for both alternatives make use of the existing pipelines, where possible. Some pipeline changes would be required for the interconnected treatment plants alternative in order to transfer flow between the treatment facilities. This results in a system which will initially Camp Dresser & McKee ~-~ be more diffcult to implement due to the need to reroute flows and build new pipelines and a booster pumping station. Permits required for the selected alternative include FDEP construction permits, NPDES permits, and local county permits. These are discussed in greater detail in Section 3. Adequate time should be allotted for permit application to be filed, review comments to be addressed, and the final permit to be issued. A minimum of 120-180 days from time offiling to final permit issuance is suggested. Them initially appears to be no permitting difficulties that would make any of the alternatives non- constructable. The existing North County Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility (NCRWWTF) and South County Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility (SCRWWTF) have adequate land area for expansion. For both alternatives, there will be limited land acquisition required for the transmission and reuse systems. 8.2.4 Social Considerations Social considerations address impacts of'the alternatives to county residents including noise and lighting from facilities, odors, traffic disruptions from vehicles operating the system, and acceptance of the program by residents. Noise, odor, and lighting disturbance will be minimized where possible. Construction and operation of the wastewater interconnect will have a greater social impact. 8.3 Selection of Wastewater Management Plan A ranking of'the two alternatives as discussed in the previous sections is presented in Table 8-3. This ranking is based upon the economic, environmental and social impacts as well as the implementability of each alternative. The alternative with the lowest number is the most desirable based upon its impact in the county. Camp Dresser & McKee c,:x~.=e 7,4a? 8-7 $~ 8 ~$~ Based upon the ranking o['the altemat|ves, the tecommendecl wastewatet management plan tot Collier County is Alternative II, two treatment facilities with associated tra~mission system and urban reuse.

Phase II (2003-2007) improvements include expansion to the SCRW1N"TF to provide treatment capacity up to 10.5 mgd. The Phase II SCRW1NTF expansion will include additional aeration basins, cla~fiers, effluent filters, and disinfection facilities to continue to provide AST to meet the requirements of the u~oan reuse system. These additions will be consistent with the existing process and equipment at the facility to allow for less difficulty in operations sad maintenance. No additional treatment plant expansions are planned for Phase E[ (2008-2012). Phase IV (2012- 201 ?) improvements include expansion to the NCRW~T to provide treatment capacity of 18.5 mgd and expansion to the SCRW~rTF to provide treatment capacity of 13 mgd. These additions will be consistent with the erJsting process and equipment at these facilities to allow for less difficulty in operations and maintenance. Camp Dresser & McKee : ~ :: ' 5 De,~,t:r/paon of Se~:i'ed ~ Potable water resources and the surrounding environment will be protected i~om possible treatment plant failures by: · Providing Class I reliability at the treatment plant. · Use of adequate fi'eeboard in all plant tanks. · Containment walls around chemical tanks. · Alarm systems to detect failure. · Use ofbackflow prevention devices and isolation valves as required. Several methods to reduce energy consumption will be incorporated into the design ofwastewatet treatment system improvements. These include: · Use of"Premium Efficiency" motors were over 15 liP. · Use of'high efficiency, variable frequency drives, where appropriate. · Use of H1D site lighting to reduce the number of lights. · Use of HID and fluorescent interior lighting with energy saving ballasts. 9.2 Wastewater Transmission Phase I transmission system improvements in the North Service Area include the following: a new master pump station (1.02.00), a parallel 30-inch force main on Immokalee Road and upgrades to eight (8) pump stations to meet future flows. Five (5) pump stations require upgrading in the South Service Area for Phase I. Phase I of the wastewater transmission system will also consist of removal of 4 package treatment plants, Rookery Bay and Eagle Creek, from service and connection to the existing County wastewater system. The new transmission system required for these connections includes approximately 20,$00 feet of 4-inch force main, 1,000 feet of 6-inch force main and 9,000 feet of S-inch force main. This phase also requires a total ors duplex lift stations and a triplex station. The decommissioning and demolition of'these package plants will be the responsibility of/he package plant owners. Camp Dresser & McKee 1213 5 Phase ri improvements in the North Ser,,ice Area include upgrading the pumps at twelve pump stations and replacing approximately 3900 feet ot'4-inch force main with 6dnch Force main to meet ~uture flow conditions. Phase II or'the wastewater transmitalon system will consist or'removal of slx package wastew~ter treatment plants from service and connection to the existing County wastewater system, ,,, well as expansion ofthe collectlon system to an identified area in the north ~ervice area a~l extension o£an g-inch force main on CR 951. The new tnmsmi~on system tequlred for the service area expansion includes approximately 13,000 feet of 16.inch force main, 9,$00 feet of S-inch fotco main, and 10,500 f~et of 4-1nch diameter force main, and six duplex lit stations to replace existing package plants. Phase III also includes the addition of three (3) master pump stations in the north service area. No improvements to the wastewater transmission system ate planned for Phase IV. 9.3 Effluent Disposal Facilities Phase I (1998-2002) includes the construction ot'a 16-inch reclaimed water main interconnect along Interstate 75, Pine Ridge Road, Livingston ROad, Radio Road and Santa Barbara Boulevard. The interconnect will provide servic~ to Grey Oaks, Wyndemere and Embassy Woods. Reclaimed water mains will be constructed to serve Kensington and Naples Heritage. A 20-inch reclaimed water main will be constructed on Vanderbilt Beach Road from Airport-Pulling Road to the NCRWTP to serve V'dlage Walk and to transfer effluent to the NCRWTP deep injection wells. Expansion or'the reuse system to provide irrigation water is based on using aquifer storage and recovery to provide 140 mg of storage. Further investigation of ASR needs to be conducted to assess its feas~iiity for reuse water storage in Collier County. The availability or'cost-effective storage, such as ASR, will govern expansion of the reuse system to serve additional reuse customers. During Phase ri (2003-2007) a deep in}ection well will be constructed at the NCRWWI'F for wet weather and excess effluent disposal. Camp Dresser & McKee COL2~I.0e ~l&~7 120 During Phase III (20084012) a 16-inch r~daimed w~ter main will be constructed to meet additional demands at Lely Resorts. The reclaimed w~ter pump stations will be upgraded to provide a higher operating pressure to meet the increasing demands. Phase IV (20134017) does not require any capital improvements. At the end or'the planrfin$ period 17.32 mgd of reclaimed water will be used by the reuse customers resulting in '76 percent or'the wa~ewater effluent being reused. For the construction activities associated with this wastewater management improvement program. mitigation procedures will be enacted in order to minimize the impact to residents. These activities include: · Use of siltation barriers to minimized impacts of construction on surface water · Use of watering or calcium for dust control on roadway and other disturbed areas · Ent'orcement of county sound ordinances · Use of construction specifications that will require minimum sxtverse impacts ~rom construction on the surrounding properties. 9.4 Financial Plan Financing the collection, transmission, treatment, and effluent disposal facilities will be the responsibility of the county. Tables 9-I through 9-4 provide the anticipated cost or'the wastewater expansion program for Phase I, Phase H, Phase III and Phase IV respectively. The program cost for Phase I ofthe wastewater management program is estimated to be approximately :!;35,427,100 with $23,926,100 to come from SRF Eroding and includes construction of the capital improvements; engineering and program management; administration, legal and land; and contingency (Table 9-1).

The pledged revenue supporting these debt issues will be a combination ofuset fees and system development frees. Table 9-5 compares the financial plan for the selected plan with and without SRF funding. The use of'SRF loan money for Phase I of'the program is estimated to provide an annual savings ot'$537,000 over the use ofrconventional financing with revenue bonds. It is not yet known iff SRF funding will be available for the Phase II, III and IV programs. A financial analysis was conducted to determine the impact of'Phase I of'the wastewater management system on an equivalent residential unit (ERU). Table 9-6 provides a summary o£the impact per ERU from the construction of'the Phase I improvements with the use of SRF funding. An existin8 ERU witl pay an annual incremental cost ofrapproximately :$28.66. Table 9-7 presents these same components ofcost but does not account for SRF funding of'the program. An existing ERU will pay approximately $37.23 ifrSRF funding is not used for this program.

Camp Dresser & McKce lO-1 COL201.10 !,/18/97 Section 10 10.2 Institutional Arrangements 10.2.1 General Collier County is authorized to own and operate a v/stet supply and sewage system in accordance with the authority gr~nted by Florida Law. The piing, desigtk operation and maintensace ofthe county-owned wastewater facilities is the respons~illty of Colliet County. 10.2.2 Regulatory Agreements Collier County operates its existing North County Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility (NCRWWTF), Pelican Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant (WW'IT) and South County Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility (SCRWWTF) under three separate opetatln8 permits from FDEP. The effluent generated at the treatment plants is disposed or"through the permitted urban reuse system and percolation ponds, . As part of the review process for th~s plan and in order to quali~ for a subsidized SRF loan, various governmental agencies must approve the way that Colliet County will implement the plan. Agencies which will have the opportunity to rev{ew and comment on the plan include: · Department or'Environmental Protection · Regional Planning Council · South Florida Water Management District · Office of the Governor's State Clearing House · Public Service Commission " 10-2 Camp Dresser & McKee ,, , C:0L.201.10 ~18~7 10.2.3 County Ordinances and Resolutions · ectio~ 1o The provisions and schedules for wastewater rates, charlses and fees for ruts, il and commercial customers of'the system have been established by Collier County Ordinance No. 91-S0 (adopted August 1991 ), This ordinance establishes the types of' rates, fees, and changes t'or water and sewer service provided by Collier County including: Residential and non-residential service (commercial) service availability charges based upon meter sizes. Volume charge per 1,000 gallons including single and multi-t'amily volume maximum or' 10,0o0 gallons per dwelling unit per month. There are individual agreements with customers using the effluent irrigation sen, ice. These agreements describe various terms and conditions such as a minimum volume to be accepted in ga.lions per day (gpd), quality oreffluent, point of'delivery, rate to be charged, etc. These agreements for a five (5) year period, renewable for an additional five (5) years, but subject to the current terms and provisions being incorporated into like agreements by the county. A sample agreement ia provided in Appendix E. The county adopted Sewer Use Ordinance No. 91-69 on Suly 30, 1991. lh'ovisions ofthe Sewer Use Ordinance require that all private wastewater facilities, includin8 package treatment plants and septic tanlcs in the county, connect to the collection and treatment t'acilities whea made available. A copy of S~,ver Use Ordinance No. 91-69 is provided in Appendix F. The county is currently preparing a cross-connection control ordinance and a reuse ordinance. Camp Dresser & McKee 12C 5 10.2.4 Industrial Pretreatment Program Section fo implementation Plan The county's Sewer Use Ordinance No. 91-69 addresses the issue of'industrial discharge to the wastewater collection and treatment system. The county requires that any industrial contributora to the system obtain an eftluent permit fi`om the county to ensure that the discharge will be compat~le with the capacity, process, treatment and nutrient load or'the county's wastewater facilities. The ordinance also sets forth maximum concentrations ofconstltuents which are allowed to be discharged to the system. 10.3 Implementation Schedules The implementation or'the wastewater management program has been divided into four phases for ease of'construction, ~unding, and implementation. The first phase or'the wastewater management plan involves a $ mgd expansion of'the NCRWWTF. SIR loans will be requested for this expansion. Also included in Phase I is the construction ot'a reclaimed water interconnect, extension of a reuse line fi`om the NCRWWTF to the two deepwells located at the North County Water Plant and construction of'reclaimed water mains to serve additional customers. Phase I includes a new wastewater master pump station, a 30-inch force main on Immokalee Road, upgrades to 13 pump stations and connecting 4 package plants, Rookery Bay and Eagle Creek, to the system. Phase I also includes aquifer storage and recovery to provide 140 ms ofreclaimed water storage. SRF loan money is not being requested for these projects. The Phase II improvements (to be completed by the year 2007) include expansion to the SCRWWTF to provide for additional wastewater treatment, additional urban reuse system improvements, additional transmission system to remove six package plants from service, extension ofsewet set, ce to a previously unsewered area in the north service area, and pump station improvements. Camp Dresser & McKee Sec#~ 10 The Phase III improvements (to be completed by the year 2012) include improvements to the urban reuse system and addition of'three master pump stations in the north service area. Phase IV improvements (to be completed by the year 2017) include expansion to the NCRWWTF and SCRWWTF to provide for additional wastewater treatment through the plannin8 period. The estimated project schedule for SRF related activities t'or Phase I is presented in Table 10-1. The schedule is segregated into major construction related components including permit applications, advertisement of'bids, bid opening, startup and operation certification. The schedule also includes the major components for funding including loan application submittal, dedicated revenue heating dates, and capital financing plan submittal. Table 10-2 presents a summary of'the implementation schedule for Phases II, III and IV. In accordance with the schedule presented, the Phase I improvements to the NCRWW1'F are anticipated to be completed (final completion) in December 1999. It is anticipated that the construction of Phase I improvements will require approximately 24 months to complete. Construction of these improvements is anticipated to commence in January 1998. This is included in the schedule provided in Table 10-1. '10.3.1 Financing Schedule Detailed projections of cash flow during construction and stanup for the purpose ofestablishin8 county capital fund needs will be developed after contract documents and construction schedules have been prepared and reviewed. Section 9 provides more information regarding the estimated total capital costs and system development fee to be used t'or non-SRF capital needs, and the potential incremental cost impact or'the facilities plan program on a single family household in the county.
