Broward County-wide Master Reuse Plan Southeast Florida Utility Council March 10, 2014 Develop a regional reuse master plan Broward County, Municipalities, and Water Providers Short term Work to establish a regionally coordinated master plan for the development and delivery of reclaimed water on a county-wide basis.

Presentation Overview - Road Map Where we started: Background Goals What we did: Team Selection Scope Development Project Tools Development Where we’re going: Implementation Planning, and Data Collection

BACKGROUND

Background: Water Resources Task Force Task Force Report - January 2011 Included 40 recommendations in the areas of: Water conservation Reuse planning and development Regional water supply projects Investigation and modeling Recommendations addressed regional water resource needs ensuring the sustainability of the environment, the quality of life for the residents as well as the economic vitality of the region. The Technical Team was directed to give special consideration to reuse opportunities as part of later development of regional water supply alternatives for the Task Force’s consideration.

Background: Water Resources Task Force Eleven (11) recommendations specific to reuse including; Recommendation #19 Regional Reuse Master Plan 20) Recognize utility investments in reuse – Pursue a system of allocated alternative water supply credits for utilities that pay for reuse. (SFWMD and Water Providers – short term) 21) Develop and maintain a regional coverage of local reuse infrastructure – Support County efforts to develop a regional GIS coverage of local reuse infrastructure for use in future 22) Coordinate with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) – Work with the FDOT to obtain annual updates 23) Coordinate with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) Reuse Work Group and related entities 24) Utilize corridors in reuse planning efforts – Investigate the use of rights-of-way, canals and other waterbodies for laying reuse lines. 25) Coordinate with the Broward County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) 26) Update local 5-Year Capital Improvement Plans (CIP) – Phase into 5-year CIPs the necessary infrastructure to more fully utilize available reclaimed water supplies 27)Amend land use and comprehensive plans – Encourage better integration of reuse planning and projects in future development and redevelopment plans 28) Further the use of reclaimed water for irrigation – Develop new county and/or municipal ordinances, or amend current ordinances establishment of mandatory reuse zones, fully considering the availability of flows, proximity of irrigation systems to reclaimed water lines, costs and

Background: Water Reuse Challenges Developed urban areas 25 distinct water providers 15 distinct wastewater providers Seasonal demand fluctuations Treatment costs/disposal options RWAR- limiting traditional water sources Ocean outfall legislation (Senate Bill 1302) requiring the elimination of treated wastewater disposal via ocean outfalls and the transfer of 60% of facility actual flow on an annual basis to beneficial reuse applications by 2025. Two of the six ocean in Broward County. The combined flows of these two facilities is approximately 77.5 MGD; hence, fulfillment of obligations under this legislation will require that 46.5 MGD of current wastewater flows be redirected to beneficial reuse applications within Broward County.

Background: Reuse Master Plan Goal To develop a Regional Reuse Master Plan that will build upon current municipal and county efforts and coordinate a regional approach to reuse planning, maximizing cost-effective reuse development within Broward County To create a platform for shared communication To provide flexible and interactive planning tools reduce demands on the Biscayne Aquifer, the development of alternative water supplies, and fulfills legislative and consumptive use permit requirements for reuse development.

Coordination & Tool Development

Work Effort: Team Selection Water and Wastewater Providers/Local Gov’ts Consultants Hazen and Sawyer, P.C. Craven Thompson & Associates, Inc. Cordova Rodriguez & Assoc., Inc. Steve Lamb Broward County: Natural Resources Planning and Management Development and Environmental Review BC Water and Wastewater Services FLDEP, DOH, DOT, SFWMD

Work Effort: Team Collaborations Review of Previous Studies/Reports Stakeholder Meetings Stakeholder Specific Interactive Project Analysis Reclaimed Water Planning Tools Development

Work Effort: Tool Production GIS Reclaimed Water Planning Tool Project Evaluation Model ...tools can be easily adapted and updated as reclaimed water needs and drivers change over time

Work Effort: GIS Planning Tool Foundation for data storage and interpretation Database of existing and planned reclaimed water infrastructure Addition of planned County Public Works Projects Google Earth platform allows for easy manipulations of alternatives Tool was used to develop proposed regional projects

Work Effort: BC WWS Example Broward NRWWTP 5 Miles 3 Miles 1 Mile Broward WWS Utility Boundary Evaluated potential users based on distance from WWTP Two scenarios: With utility boundaries Without utility boundaries

Work Effort: Project Evaluation Model Criteria were developed with stakeholders Final criteria included the following categories Project Benefits Project Implementation Project Reliability General Acceptance of Project Project Costs Weights and scaling factors were established Model is in Excel – simplifies revisions

Work Effort: Master Reuse Plan Existing and planned reclaimed water infrastructure Planned County Public Works projects Costs and carbon footprint of potential reclaimed water projects Climate change impacts on reclaimed water options Potential reclaimed water opportunities by utility Regional reclaimed water projects Regional projects using Criteria Model Guidelines for future maintenance of tools

Future implementation

Implementation: Benefits Current: Database of existing reclaimed water infrastructure-not previously available Catalyst for multijurisdictional partnering Documents reuse projects for future funding under SB 444 or other Future: Reduction in engineering costs for future planning efforts Ability to visually analyze options Platform to coordinate with future public works projects and potentially reduce construction costs

Implementation: Potential Projects for Analysis
