Flood Protection: The principal purpose of Hillsborough County’s floodplain management program is to protect residents and business owners from flooding risks. Flooding disasters are the leading recurring hazard within the County and have the potential of affecting greater than one-quarter of the population at a value that is greater than five billion dollars in personal property. Construction standards and planning concepts are implemented through the County’s Land Development Code, Floodplain Management Plan and Local Mitigation Strategy.

The SWFWMD has determined the Rule and Recovery Strategy will have measurable benefits towards promoting and restoring the natural characteristics and hydrologic functions of the LHR. A key component of the LHR Recovery Strategy involves diversion of water from the Tampa Bypass Canal (TBC) to the LHR at the base of the Hillsborough River Dam. This requires permanent facilities be constructed near TBC Structure 161 and the City’s Dam. The City is dedicated to construct these facilities with SWFWMD as an ongoing cooperator. The following excerpts from an existing cooperative funding agreement summarize the City’s understanding of the District’s intent: 1) “…the DISTRICT desires to assist the CITY in funding projects that will enable the CITY to meet its obligations under the Recovery Strategy within the time schedule set forth…” 2) “The District agrees to make available to the City [up to] $22,250,000 in joint funding for projects designed to achieve the requirements of the minimum flows for the Lower Hillsborough River.” Since this agreement also states “…the parties have agreed that it is in their best interests to work cooperatively to achieve the requirements and goals of the Recovery Strategy,” the City has proceeded with preliminary design of the subject diversion facilities. This effort includes a detailed alternatives analysis to determine the best infrastructure configuration at each site to meet the Recovery Strategy objectives. The City looks forward to continuing its cooperative relationship with SWFWMD and implementing the LHR Recovery Strategy as soon as possible while utilizing the most cost effective approach feasible. 57
