PROJECT BACKGROUND. The goal of this Project is to enhance the permitting and use of low impact development (LID) practices in Winter Haven. The Project builds on the work products and lessons learned in the Winter Haven Xxxx to Green community education program funded in part by an US Environmental Protection Agency Section 319 Education Grant administered by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP Agreement No. NF015). The Project addresses a major obstacle to implementing LID practices by creating a comprehensive evaluation of the infiltration benefits of stormwater LID.

PROJECT BACKGROUND. The City of Port St. Lucie (Grantee) has a number of proactive programs to address water quality degradation in its impaired water bodies. The St. Lucie River is a significant tributary to the southern extension of the Indian River Lagoon. Once all areas of the XxxXxxxx Ranch water farming project are constructed, the reservoir will annually hold back approximately 5.5 billion gallons of freshwater discharge and will annually impound a total treatment capacity of 17,141 acre-feet of water from the C-23 Canal. Implementing this project will contribute to the goals for an improved and healthy St. Lucie River and Estuary, as there are several rare fish species that rely on a tidal system with a wide range of salinities for one or more phases of their life cycle within the tributaries of the Indian River Lagoon. This agreement consists of using a 304 acre site for water farming and is the fourth of six or more phases that will be constructed on XxXxxxx Ranch. This phase will provide a treatment capacity of 4,377 acre-feet of water annually, leading to a 6,288 lbs/yr (50%) reduction of total nitrogen, 800 lbs/yr (75%) total phosphorus, 5,912 lbs/yr (75%) of BOD and 21,116 lbs/yr (75%) of total suspended solids that enter the canal from runoff from agricultural and urban areas.
PROJECT BACKGROUND. This is a 4.1-mile segment of critically eroded shoreline at Navarre Beach on Santa Xxxx Island. Assisted-recovery of the beach and dune system was conducted following Hurricanes Opal and Georges. This area was severely impacted by Hurricane Xxxx in 2004 and further impacted by Hurricanes Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxx in 2005. Initial construction of the Navarre Beach Restoration Project (R191+500’-R214 -225’) began in late March 2006 and was completed in November 2006. The initial sand placement included approximately 3.4 million cy to construct the beach and dune. The project also included a dune feature that consisted of additional sand and dune vegetation. The borrow area is located about 4 miles offshore. The project included replacement of emergency protective berms that were funded by FEMA. A small truck haul project in April of 2010 was constructed to partially address spreading losses on the west end of the project site. The project design did not include a typical fill taper when no construction easement was granted for placement of the taper by the adjacent Gulf Islands National Seashore. The 2010 interim truck haul project repaired a portion of the dune, which sustained damages during Hurricanes Gustav and Ike in 2008, by placement of approximately 11,881 cy of sand from an upland borrow site. The JCP permit for the first full nourishment was issued on January 7, 2014 and the construction was completed in 2016, placing approximately 1,340,000 cy. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Project consists of post-construction monitoring.
PROJECT BACKGROUND. The Xxxxxxxxxx Island Development Corporation (IIDC) provided water and wastewater service to the residents of Xxxxxxxxxx Island in southwestern Escambia County. IIDC purchased water from the Emerald Coast Utilities Authority (ECUA) and resold it to the residents. Wastewater is currently collected in a gravity sewer system and conveyed via a system of lift stations and force mains to ECUA lift station No. 380. Wastewater is metered at the discharge of the lift station before leaving the island. The wastewater is metered and billed independently of the potable water. Water and sewer services provided in the past by IIDC were subject to regulation by the Public Service Commission of the State of Florida. On January 27, 2014, the Xxxxxxxxxx Island Development Corporation formally filed a note of abandonment pursuant to Florida Statute 367.165(1), and on March 21, 2014 the First Judicial Circuit Court ordered Escambia County (Grantee) to become the receiver of this water and wastewater utility system. However, not only is long term ownership and maintenance outside of the capabilities of the County, the County also has no statutory authority to own and operate a water and wastewater system due to the Enabling Act of the ECUA. An agreement in principal has been reached between ECUA and the Grantee regarding future ownership and maintenance of the Xxxxxxxxxx Island Development Corporation's utilities, as well as options for financing mechanisms allowing ECUA to complete design and construction, as necessary, to bring the existing utility systems into compliance with current FDEP and ECUA standards. The project will facilitate the transfer of ownership and maintenance of the systems to ECUA. This transition is critical so that an entity with adequate resources can accept the long-term requirements that come with utility ownership. This is a necessity for the residents served by this system.
PROJECT BACKGROUND. The Project was initially restored in 1973, and subsequently nourished in 1978, 1984, 1992, 2002, 2005, 2013 and 2014. The 2005 Project was a storm repair project to address sand erosion that occurred during the 2004-05 hurricane season. In response to sand erosion caused by the passage of Hurricane Xxxxx, the Project was nourished in two segments between 2013 and 2014. The fifth nourishment event was completed in April 2013, placing sand from R179 to R188A. A subsequent FCCE project was completed in April 2014 by the USACE, placing sand on the northern end of the Project from R175+300 to R180, slightly overlapping the 2013 nourishment. Design and permitting efforts for the next nourishment event are ongoing.
PROJECT BACKGROUND. The Project shoreline sustained beach and dune erosion from Hurricane Ian (category 4 storm in late September 2022) and Hurricane Xxxxxx (category 1 storm in November 2022). Laws of Florida Chapter 2022-272 SB4-A authorized the Department of Environmental Protection to waive or reduce match requirements for certain local governments and provided non-recurring funds for damages related to Hurricane Xxx and Hurricane Xxxxxx for beach erosion projects as identified in Section 161.101(22), Florida Statute, F.S.
PROJECT BACKGROUND. The City of Marianna is situated along the Chipola River, an Outstanding Florida Water. The design of this project as proposed would utilize best management practices and innovative concepts to promote recreation and education in conjunction with the primary function of stormwater retention and treatment. The education and recreation components of the project are not under the scope of this Grant Work Plan.
PROJECT BACKGROUND. The majority of the project (R12 - R36) is part of the federal Manatee County Shore Protection Project, which was restored in 1993. Nourishment was completed in 2002. In 2005, a portion of the island received federally funded hurricane recovery nourishment. Restoration of the Coquina Beach segment (R36–R41.3) and the City of Xxxx Xxxxx segment (R7 - R10) was completed in 2011. Nourishment of the entire project was completed in FY 2013-14, in advance of FY 2014-15 as a result of Tropical Xxxxx Xxxxx in June 2012.
