Description
This project is to perform a detailed study of the interconnection of the existing reclaimed water reuse systems of the
City of Bradenton with the City of Palmetto and the City of Bradenton with Manatee County (MARS). The study will
determine the amounts of reclaimed water from the City of Bradenton that can be beneficially reused during the next
20 years by the City of Palmetto and Manatee County, and develop preliminary designs for the pumping, transmission
and control facilities required to interconnect the three reuse systems. In addition to a final report, a 20-year agreement
between the two cities and the city and county for implementing and operating the interconnected systems will be a
project deliverable.
Benefits
This interconnection study will provide the City of Bradenton, Manatee County, the City of Palmetto, and the District
with an implementable plan for interconnection of the three reuse systems.
Costs
The total project cost is estimated to be $120,000 and the District's share is $40,000 in FY2008. The City of Bradenton
will fund $80,000 and plans to receive $20,000 from Manatee County and $20,000 from the City of Palmetto. Any
additional funds are for staff time.

The agreement was executed on February 25, 2008. The consultant, Jones, Edmunds & Associates, Inc. was given a
notice to proceed on March 31, 2008. A project kick-off meeting was held May 19, 2008. Draft interlocal agreements
between the City of Bradenton and City of Palmetto and between the City of Bradenton and Manatee County have been
prepared and reviewed by the City attorney. Data show that the City of Palmetto will have adequate reclaimed water from
it's own reuse system to meet there needs for the next twenty years. An agreement between the City of Bradenton and
Manatee County for the City to provide MARS the desired quantities of reclaimed water appears unlikely. The study of
the interconnect between Bradenton and Palmetto was completed May 25, 2009. The study of the interconnect between
