Description
This project consists of a reuse feasibility study to identify the technical and financial elements of a reclaimed water
system. The City of Punta Gorda owns and operates a 4 mgd wastewater treatment plant, and currently disposes all of
its reclaimed water via a deep injection well. The feasibility study would consider a reclaimed water system to treat and
deliver reclaimed wastewater for beneficial use as landscape irrigation.
Benefits
Upon completion of this project, the City will have a reuse feasibility study considering a reclaimed water system to
treat and deliver reclaimed wastewater for beneficial use.
Costs
The total estimated cost of this project is $250,000, of which the Peace River Basin is requested to fund 50 percent, or
$125,000. Funding in the amount of $125,000 has been budgeted for FY2007.
Additional Information
The City wants to develop a reclaimed water system that will assist in achieving goals of the SWUCA, reducing
demands from the public water system and reducing demands from groundwater used for irrigation wells.
