The objective of this project is to eliminate, to the greatest degree possible, the discharge of treated effluent in the river and transmit it instead to the City of Lakeland transmission main located approximately one mile east of the Mulberry WWTP. The existing WWTP has a current permitted capacity of 0.75 MGD and existing flows are currently in the 0.34 to 0.45 MGD range. It is expected that, due to future planned development projects already annexed into the City, flows will be increasing by up to an additional 2.1 MGD. Currently, an Engineering Consulting firm is engaged in permitting additional treatment capacity at the plant to accommodate these future flows. For current and future water quality requirements, the City is extremely desirous of reducing, and eventually eliminating, the surface water discharge of their treated effluent from the Alafia River. The best possible means to accomplish at this time is to join in with other local utility providers (City of Lakeland, Polk County) and connect the City's effluent discharge to the proposed pipelines already planned by the other utilities to connect to the Polk Power Station. The City of Mulberry's objective is to connect their discharge transmission line to a nearby point on the City of Lakeland's reuse main along the southeastern City limits as it then travels further south to the Polk Power Station. According to Tampa Electric's project managers, this project may be designed and permitted simultaneously with the City of Lakeland's project. The process is expected to begin in the 1Q 2011 and conclude approximately 12 months later (1Q 2012). The projects can be simultaneously constructed in 2012 and are projected for on line start up in 1Q 2013. It is expected that some minimal construction follow-up, punch list, and troubleshooting efforts will take place through mid 2013. The funding information included in this application is based upon amounts provided to the applicant by Tampa Electric's project managers. As shown in Tab 5, Tampa Electric would fund 25% of the project and the Cooperative Funding grant would support the remaining 75% of the project's budget. Tampa Electric will completely design, permit, and administer all construction efforts related to the combined (Lakeland and Mulberry) projects. The funding amounts shown as attributed to Mulberry are 'placeholder' amounts. The City will only be nominally involved in facilitating the project between Tampa Electric and the District. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. 19
