PROJECT BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION. The City of Winter Haven’s utility service area encompasses approximately 78 square miles and serves customers both inside and outside of the incorporated City limits. While the population within the service area is approximately 74,675, there are approximately 36,970 water accounts which include 3,080 commercial and 33,600 residential accounts. While there are approximately 22,900 accounts with sewer service, there are other customers that have septic systems. The wastewater collection system is comprised of approximately 330 miles of sewer mains and 198 lift stations. The wastewater is treated at one of the two wastewater treatment plants. Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 2 (WWTP No. 2) is permitted for 1.7 MGD Annual Average Daily Flow (AADF) with all the effluent being sent out as reuse water. Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 (WWTP No. 3) is permitted for
PROJECT BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION. Envisors has previously designed and permitted the Lift Station Xx. 00 Xxxxxxx Xxxx (xxxxxxxxxxxxx 00 Xxxx xxxxxx) Sewer Replacement Project. Construction of the Phase 1 Project area, funded in part by a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), has previously been constructed by Xxxxxxxxx, Inc. under the oversight of Envisors. Construction of the Phase 2 Project area, funded via a Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) loan, has also recently been constructed by Xxxxxxxxx, Inc. under the oversight of Envisors. The City of has obtained loan funding from both CDBG and FDEP CWSRF to fund construction of Phase 3 of the Project area. Envisors is currently under contract to revise bid documents for Phases 3 of the Project. This includes preparing separate revised Construction Plans and Project Manuals (front-end documents and technical specifications) for Phase 3. Operational issues associated with sewer line terminations and residential service laterals due to construction phasing are being addressed via design plan revisions to help ensure continuous sewer service is provided in the Project areas. City staff has requested Envisors to provide bidding services, engineering services, and funding program coordination during the construction of Phase 3 of the Project, including but not limited to construction administration, technical services, and operational services.

The wastewater collection system is comprised of 330 miles of sewer mains and 198 lift stations. The wastewater is treated at one of the two wastewater treatment plants. Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 2 (WWTP No. 2) is permitted for 1.7 MGD Annual Average Daily Flow (AADF) with all the effluent being sent out as reuse water. Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 (WWTP No. 3) is permitted for 7.5 MGD AADF. There are fifty lakes with a total area of eight square mile, within or bordering the City and a remarkable chain of lakes that are a centerpiece of the City. The City has been proactive in planning and developing projects that maintain or improve the quality of its lakes. With that in mind, the City has identified the elimination of septic systems as an important element in maintaining the health of the lakes by improving water quality. This Project will develop a master plan that identifies a phased approach to expand the wastewater collection system to eliminate existing and future septic systems within the City’s wastewater service area. The plan will: update the City’s existing septic inventory; identify potential septic-to-sewer project areas including quantifying the number of parcels to be sewered, the nitrogen load to be reduced and the anticipated flow from each project area; develop a conceptual-level opinion of probable construction cost (OPCC) and an opinion of probable project cost (OPPC); develop a prioritized project list and implementation schedule; and identify potential funding sources.

PROJECT BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION. The City of Winter Haven owns and operates the Cypresswood Water Treatment Plant (CWTP), located at 0000 Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxxx No. 272831000000 012680, in the Cypresswood Golf Course and Country Club community and located on the northeasterly side of the City of Winter Haven’s utility services area. The CWTP and distribution system supplies potable water to the Cypresswood community and is interconnected to the City’s potable water distribution system along Dundee Road to the north and the Garden Grove area to the south. The City owns and operates groundwater withdrawal facilities permitted by Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) Water Use Permit (WUP) 4607. The City’s raw water supply system consists of 23 existing groundwater xxxxx (and 1 proposed well), which withdraw water from the Upper Floridan Aquifer (UFA). The City’s system has a raw groundwater supply allocation of 14.06 million gallons per day (MGD) annual average daily flow (AADF) and 19.118 MGD on a peak month daily basis. The CWTP has one well with a permitted groundwater withdrawal allocation of 0.145 MGD AADF and a peak month allocation of 0.200 MGD (0.318 MGD AADF average allocation and 0.4328 MGD peak month allocation under the permitted “wellfield flexibility” withdrawal schedule). The CWTP was originally constructed, operated, and maintained by the Garden Grove Water Company, Inc. around 1975. The CWTP consists of a 100,000-gallon ground storage tank, an 8,000-gallon hydropneumatic tank, a control building housing a twelve inch well with a 1,400 gpm vertical turbine well pump, two vertical turbine booster pumps, chlorine containment area, and a fluoride pump room. The CWTP was purchased by the CITY in March 1998 and was interconnected to the City’s municipal water system in January 2006. The 2018 flow data for the WTP is as follows: • 12-month average flow = 90,392 gallons per day • Permitted flow = 318,200 gallons per day. Recently, the City has designated the CWTP as needing replaced and has developed plans to relocate the facility by constructing a new water treatment plant and xxxxx on a parcel located less than a mile south of the CWTP. The existing well at the current CWTP will be abandoned. The City intends to develop an approximately 2.0 MGD WTP (maximum day capacity), which would result in an approximately 1.33 MGD AADF supply allocation (based on an assumed maximum day peaking factor of 1.5). The final maximum day, peak month, and annual average capacity of...
PROJECT BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION. This is a three year implementation research project, funded by the Irish Research Council (IRC) under the COALESCE programme. It is being led by researchers at the School of Nursing & Human Sciences DCU and the Kamuzu College of Nursing (KCN), University of Malawi, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health & Nutrition, Malawi and the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. The co- Principal Investigators (co-PIs) for the project are Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxxxx of DCU, and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx of KCN, University of Malawi. Kamuzu College of Nursing (KCN) has its origins in the National School of Nursing which was established in 1965. The school was upgraded to a Constituent College of the University of Malawi in 1979. The College is a World Health Organization collaborating centre for Interprofessional Education and Collaborative Practice. Faculty members in the college have expertise in providing adult and child health nursing, community nursing, midwifery and reproductive health programmes and in conducting research across these areas. Based on strong research evidence, the World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends that all newborn babies are exclusively breastfed for the first 6 months. The Ministry of Health and Population in Malawi endorsed these guidelines as per the Infant and Young Child Nutrition Policy and Guidelines 2003-2020 (and again in the 2018 Nutrition Plan). Despite this, rates remain below target. We will evaluate policy implementation to promote exclusive breastfeeding of newborns for the first 6 months in Malawi. We will build capacity in implementation and realist research for the Irish and Malawian partners and relevant stakeholders. Adopting the Sustainable Development Goals' focus on leaving no-one behind, we will also focus on the most vulnerable populations, such as for babies born preterm, which is the strongest risk factor for newborn mortality in Malawi. The Role: The successful candidate will lead the day-to-day implementation of the project. They will also lead and manage aspects of the research (including a realist review and realist evaluation), training, policy synthesis and engagement and dissemination. The post will involve travel to, and periods of working in, Malawi. Principal duties and responsibilities: Reporting to the co-Principal Investigators, the post-doctoral researcher will:  Plan stakeholder and community engagement, including workshops and communication activities.  Conduct a realist review and realist ev...
