The Newton WTP distribution system consists <strong>of</strong> a single 12-inch diameter water<br />
main that runs east and west on S.W. 336 th Street. The eastbound main then branches<br />
north and south along S.W. 152 nd Avenue. The southbound branch then turns east on<br />
S.W. 344 th Street and ultimately connects to the FP&L Turkey Point generating plant.<br />
The northbound branch continues along S.W. 152 nd Avenue, where it connects to the<br />
Leisure <strong>City</strong> WTP distribution system at S.W. 304 th Street. A 6-inch diameter main<br />
running south from SW 288 th Street on S.W. 137 th Avenue then east on S.W. 328 th<br />
Street connects to an 8-inch diameter main that runs south on 117 th Street. This 8-inch<br />
diameter main connects to the 12-inch diameter main to FP&L Turkey Point<br />
generating plant. This main ultimately completes the interconnection <strong>of</strong> the Newton<br />
WTP with the Leisure <strong>City</strong>, Elevated Tank, and Naranja WTPs’ distribution areas.<br />
The westbound branch <strong>of</strong> the 12-inch diameter main turns south on S.W. 162 nd<br />
Avenue then heads south and west on Palm Drive. The main then continues south on<br />
S.W. 167 th Avenue then west on S.W. 360 th Street until it connects to the Everglades<br />
Labor Camp WTP 8-inch diameter main that runs north on SW 187 th Avenue.<br />
The South Dade distribution system is interconnected with the Alexander Orr<br />
distribution system in the vicinity <strong>of</strong> SW 127 th Avenue. MDWASD has plans for the<br />
construction and operation <strong>of</strong> the South <strong>Miami</strong> Heights WTP and associated<br />
wellfields in the South Dade Subarea. Of the five exsisting WTPs and wellfields in the<br />
South Dade area, only Everglades and Newton WTPs and wellfields will remain in<br />
service when the SMHWTP comes on line in 2012. MDWASD will be constructing a<br />
water main to interconnect with the Everglades and Newton Systems to provide<br />
water and meet additional future demands. The SMHWTP will connect to the existing<br />
distribution systems <strong>of</strong> the South Dade <strong>Plan</strong>ts to be taken out <strong>of</strong> service in 2012, when<br />
SMHWTP is online.<br />
3.4 Summary<br />
As shown within this section, the MDWASD water supply and treatment systems<br />
have sufficient installed capacity to produce more potable water than is currently<br />
required. Table 3-3 summarizes this information.
