Project Information Project Description: Provide a concise description of the proposed project. Be specific with tasks. location(s), lengths and areas, quantity of work or items to complete. (Please attach additional documentation if more space is required) A key component of the Lake Trafford Water Quality Improvement is the creation of two (2) stormwater quality treatment areas that filter nutrients from stormwater prior to entering the Lake Trafford. Phase 1 creates an estimated 13.25 acre water treatment facility similar to the a Freedom Park Water Quality Treatment Facility in Naples, FL at the northeastern portion of i the Lake Trafford Slough along Carson Road. Proposed cascading littoral shelves will be constructed to filter nutrients prior to entering the Lake Trafford Slough and eventually Lake Trafford. A pumping station will be installed to pump water from the slough back into the water treatment facility during the dry months to ensure that filtering vegetation thrives and continues to provide water treatment. Design is scheduled to be complete by 4/1/2021 with construction anticipated to start 9/1/2021. Support for the Basin's Core Missions: Describe how the proposed project will address any relevant Basin priorities and/or local water resource priorities. In addition, note if the proposed project: • is consistent with the Big Cypress Basin's mission. Big Cypress Basin's Strategic Plan and the Lower West Coast Water Supply Plan. • is part of a state. regional or local goal or strategy, and if it is in a local plan, e.g.. Capital Improvement Plan. Asset Management Plan, or Local Mitigation Strategy. Also. if the project is intended to address public or environmental health, safety, or welfare, include steps already taken to address these concerns. (Please attach additional documentation if more space is required) The Lake Trafford Water Quality Improvement Project Phase 1 implements WQ-5 of the Lake Trafford Management Plan (page 14) by developing a new water treatment facility to reduce pollutants from stormwater entering Lake Trafford. The project also meets BCB's core mission of natural systems/water quality through a partnership with Collier County government to "improve and maintain secondary and tertiary stormwater management systems" (Page 5 of BCB Strategic Plan 2018-2023) and "supporting local governments to implement stormwater improvement projects." (Page 10).

The nutrient removal calculations were made to address Total Nitrogen, Total Phosphorus, and BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand or also called Biological Oxygen Demand). BOD is defined as the amount of dissolved oxygen that must be present in water ,for microorganisms to decompose the organic matter in the water, and is used as a measure of the degree of pollution. Nutrient removal calculations using the HH methodology are based upon standardized nutrient loadings for identified land uses. average annual rainfall (for this report the consultant used mean annual rainfall from 1997 to 2014), and the total available residence time of the water within a pond or lake. Does the project impact an Outstanding Florida Water Body: ❑ Yes 7 No If yes, List Outstanding Florida Water body(ies): Page 4 of 8 Updated 04/27/2020 Cce Expected Project Outcomes and Benefits: Describe the anticipated outcomes, results and benefits (environmental, community development, economic) of the proposed project including the specific water resources that may be affected. Be specific and quantify expected results when possible (e.g., estimates of population and/or households served, pounds of pollutants removed/treated, gallons of water per day provided, etc.). (Please attach additional documentation if more space is required) Create a 13.25 acre water treatment area to reduce nutrients from entering Lake Trafford. In October 2018, SFWMD published the Lake Trafford Management Plan identifying the need to reduce the amount of nutrients entering Lake Trafford by water quality treatment components such as stormwater treatment ponds, grassy swales, and baffle boxes. The Immokalee Stormwater Improvement Plan (ImmSIP) concluded that "water quality treatment pond system" was shown to provide an overall water quality improvement and reduction of nutrient loading to Lake Trafford by reducing Total Nitrogen at 42% (0.463 kg/year avg.). reducing Phosphorus at 76% (0.121 kg/year avg.) and reducing BOD removal at 100% (3.014 kg/year avg.).
