and dual zone monitor<br />

well were designed and<br />

permitted by <strong>Tetra</strong> <strong>Tech</strong><br />

and were constructed to<br />

regulatory requirements<br />

of the Florida<br />

Department of<br />

$4,700,000<br />

(Construction Cost)<br />

<strong>Tetra</strong> <strong>Tech</strong> provided hydrogeological services to the City related to the design and<br />

permitting of the Concentrate Disposal Test/Injection Well and Monitoring Wells. A<br />

new deep injection well was constructed to dispose of the concentrate from the proposed<br />

nanofiltration/reverse osmosis water treatment plant (WTP). The new deep injection<br />

well is located on the Norwood-Oeffler WTP site after an exemption was obtained for<br />

the required setbacks to the existing potable water supply wells.<br />

The Class I injection well was designed to a depth of approximately 3,400 feet below<br />

land surface with a FRP tubing inside diameter of 14.5 inches to handle the maximum<br />

initial Phase I concentrate disposal flow of 5 MGD. A dual zone monitoring well was<br />

constructed for monitoring of the shallow and deep aquifers overlying the zone of<br />

injection. The dual zone monitoring well included construction of 16-inch intermediate<br />

casing to a depth of approximately 1370 feet below land surface with 65/8-inch tubings<br />

constructed to depths of 1,670-feet below land surface for monitoring of the shallow and<br />

deep aquifers, respectively. The deep injection well and dual zone monitor well were<br />

designed and permitted by <strong>Tetra</strong> <strong>Tech</strong> and were constructed to comply with the<br />

regulatory requirements of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection<br />

Underground Injection Control Rule.<br />

This project included preliminary and final design services, permitting, bidding, and<br />

negotiation for the wells.<br />
