Project Description:<br />
With the construction of the Boyette Reclaimed <strong>Water</strong> Reservoir, it has been determined that it is necessary to upgrade the<br />
reclaimed water pump station located at the Wesley Center Wastewater Treatment Facility. This upgrade will allow the County to<br />
more efficiently pump reclaimed water from the reservoir through the plant into the reclaimed water system. This proposed project<br />
will consist of the renovation of four of the reuse pumps which provide reclaimed water to the reclaimed water system. The<br />
renovation is intended to return these pumps to their design flow rates by rebuilding seals, replacing worn parts and rebuilding or<br />
replacing with high efficiency motors. Additionally, two of the existing reuse pumps will either be replaced or upgraded to match the<br />
above four pumps' flow rates. This work will require upgrades to the existing electrical feeder circuits, the motor control center and<br />
pump controls (i.e., VFDs). These upgrades will in turn necessitate that the reuse pump electrical building is enlarged and its HVAC<br />
system is increased to handle the additional sensible heat load. The existing tank isolation, pump manifold, and system valves will<br />
also need to be rebuilt or replaced as part of this project.<br />
The project cost is estimated to be $1,300,000. The County is requesting 50 percent funding from <strong>District</strong> ($650,000) in FY 2014.<br />
Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection<br />
ordinances.<br />
Pasco County adopted Ordinance 01-08 requiring the following: one day/week irrigation restrictions for potable water; curtailed use<br />
of potable water for irrigation when rain has occurred within 24 hours; scheduled availability and restricted use of reclaimed water<br />
irrigation to distribute limited supply to as many customers as possible; washing of non-business, personal vehicles only using low<br />
volume methods and over non-impervious surfaces; prohibiting aesthetic uses of water unless such use also provides a necessary<br />
aeration or water quality benefit; and the use of reclaimed water for road construction activities when available. Enforcement of this<br />
ordinance is by designated County personnel and law enforcement officers. During <strong>Water</strong> Year 2012, 100% of Pasco County<br />
Utilities' wastewater was reused. The bulk rate charged for the use of reclaimed water is $0.47 per 1,000 gallons (normal rate),<br />
$0.21 per 1,000 gallons (surplus rate), and a flat rate of $10.26 per month residential irrigation. Pasco County's potable water rates<br />
are applied in a water conservation inclining block rate. County Ordinance 93-16 requires each new development to construct a<br />
reclaimed water distribution system as a condition of wastewater service when the development is within designated areas in the<br />
Reclaimed <strong>Water</strong> Master Plan and when providing the development with reclaimed water supply is determined in the best interest<br />
of the County. Pasco County participates in the National Flood Insurance Program, administered through FEMA. All finished floor<br />
