<strong>Water</strong> <strong>Supply</strong> Facilities Work <strong>Plan</strong><br />
This section details the water supply facilities that are planned in order to meet<br />
MDWASD’s water demands through 2030. For ease <strong>of</strong> reference, the project start and<br />
finish dates have been provided below the title <strong>of</strong> the following subsections. The<br />
Capital Improvement Elements Tables 8 and 12 located in Appendix B.<br />
5.1 South <strong>Miami</strong> Heights <strong>Water</strong> Treatment <strong>Plan</strong>t and<br />
Wellfield<br />
Start 2007<br />
Finish 2012<br />
Construction on the South <strong>Miami</strong> Heights <strong>Water</strong> Treatment <strong>Plan</strong>t and Wellfield will<br />
begin in 2007. This facility will use a parallel treatment train <strong>of</strong> ultra-low<br />
pressure/nan<strong>of</strong>iltration reverse osmosis and ultrafiltration membranes for treatment<br />
<strong>of</strong> 20 mgd <strong>of</strong> Biscayne aquifer water from ten wells.<br />
5.2 Alternative <strong>Water</strong> <strong>Supply</strong> Projects<br />
The following proposed alternative water supply (AWS) projects are to meet<br />
MDWASD’s increased water demands through 2030, which encompasses the<br />
proposed 20-year Consumptive Use Permit period. AWS projects have been<br />
identified to meet water demands in the MDWASD service area and are presented in<br />
Table 5-1, Table 5-2 and Figure 5-1. These projects are to be completed in increments<br />
commensurate with the projected growth, as presented in Figure 5-2 and Figure 5-3.<br />
All costs are in terms <strong>of</strong> December, 2006 (ENR CCI=7888) dollars.<br />
The plan described herein demonstrates that the proposed projects, by their location,<br />
volume <strong>of</strong> water produced, and timing <strong>of</strong> implementation, will be sufficient to <strong>of</strong>fset<br />
the corresponding raw water demand increases. These projects will undergo further<br />
refinement and development over the next few months. The flow (Q MGD) shown in<br />
parentheses below represents the corresponding amount <strong>of</strong> finished water annual<br />
average daily demand (AADD) provided by the projects in terms <strong>of</strong> million gallons<br />
per day (MGD). These AWS projects and AADD assume that all current wholesalers<br />
will remain on the MDWASD system through 2030, except the <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> North <strong>Miami</strong><br />
Beach which drops out after 2007.
