N/A (signature) (date) (name, typed) (title) (agency) (address) (telephone) (fax) (e-mail) Form 62-503.900(1) Page 6 of 6 Effective Date: 7-29-04 Project Description Wastewater and Stormwater Improvements City of Cape Canaveral Wastewater Improvements The City's aging wastewater treatment facilities are in need of upgrading and refurbishment of the oxidation ditch and the sludge belt press. The oxidation ditch was constructed in the mid- 1960's and renovated in the mid-1990's and there is no redundancy in the oxidation ditch process. Should the ditch fail, minimally treated sewage would be discharged directly to the Banana River Aquatic Preserve. The sludge belt press is over 15 years old and a complete refurbishment of the belt press is required to maintain the sludge dewatering and management process. As with the oxidation ditch, there is no redundancy in the sludge dewatering process and due to age and wear the existing belt press is subject to failure at any time. A new 3 MG reclaimed water storage tank is planned to augment the existing 1 MG tank. Reclaimed water is provided to residents throughout the City; however the amount of reclaimed water frequently exceeds the storage capacity during periods of low usage. During these periods, reclaimed water is discharged to the Banana River Aquatic Preserve. The additional storage capacity should eliminate this discharge and help the City meet the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) established for the Banana River Lagoon. The TMDL for the Banana River Lagoon adopted in March 2009 requires reductions in the loadings of total nitrogen and total phosphorus sufficient to meet seagrass depth limit targets. Upgrades at the wastewater treatment facilities will provide improved protection of the water quality in the Banana River Lagoon from accidental failures at the wastewater treatment facilities. Elimination of frequent discharges of excess reclaimed water into the Lagoon will aid in reducing the nutrient loading as required under the TMDL program. A site map showing the location of the planned facilities and upgrades at the wastewater treatment facilities is attached and noted as Figure 1 -Wastewater Projects. Stormwater Improvements The TMDL program requires reductions in total nitrogen and total phosphorus reaching the Banana River Lagoon.The City plans to improve the stormwater management system in several locations as shown on the attached map noted as Figure 2 -Stormwater Projects. The North Central Ditch Project is planned to be constructed in two phases. Each phase will involve the installation of triple 48" diameter Reinforced Concrete Pipes (RCP's) for a distance of approximately 400 L.F. in each phase of the project for a total of approximately 2,400 L.F. of RCP. The RCP's will be covered with sod and maintained as a part of a future greenway. All of the stormwater collected will be treated through an existing nutrient-separating baffle box prior to discharge to the Lagoon. These improvements will provide additional environmental 1 benefits by eliminating areas in the ditch that are open to illegal dumping and where standing water is susceptible to algae blooms. The North Atlantic Avenue Streetscape Project involves stormwater improvements along both sides of North Atlantic Avenue for a distance of about 6,500 L.F. These improvements will include stormwater collection as the majority of this stretch of North Atlantic Avenue has no stormwater collection facilities. Stormwater from the street and sidewalks currently flows onto private property and eventually to the Central Ditch for discharge to the Banana River Lagoon. These improvements will likely include ex-filtration facilities which will eliminate a significant amount of stormwater reaching the Banana River Lagoon.This will help the City meet the requirements of the TMDL program. The West Central Boulevard Pipe Replacement Project is needed to replace a severely corroded metal pipe along the northern side of West Central Boulevard. Approximately 950 L.F. of the aged and corroding metal pipe will be replaced with RCP. The diameter of this pipe will be determined in the design phase of the project. The potential collapse of this pipe could cause flooding in the northern portion of the City north of West Central Boulevard and east of SR A1A creating health and safety hazards for the residents and affect the pollutant loading that ultimately reaches the Banana River Lagoon. Rebuilding this section of pipe will allow the stormwater to continue to be treated in the existing baffle box before discharge. The Central Ditch Dredging Project includes the dredging of the Central Ditch from West Central Boulevard to SR A1A, a distance of approximately 1,400 L.F. Muck of up to three feet in thickness has been measured in some areas of the ditch. Muck and debris will be removed thus eliminating this source of pollution and contaminates from the muck and debris from reaching the Banana River Lagoon and further aid in the City meeting the TMDL requirements. A preliminary estimate of cost for these wastewater and stormwater improvements is attached and shown Preliminary Cost Estimate—Wastewater and Stormwater Improvements, Exhibit A. 2 Exhibit A Preliminary Cost Estimate Wastewater and Stormwater Improvements Wastewater Improvements Oxidation Ditch Reconfiguration $1,500,000 Sludge Belt Press Refurbishment $ 200,000 3 MG Reclaimed Water Tank $1,950,000 Sub-total Wastewater $3,650,000 Stormwater Improvements Culverting North Central Ditch Phase I $ 200,000 Culverting North Central Ditch Phase II $ 230,000 North Atlantic Avenue Streetscape Stormwater Portion $ 636,000 West Central Pipe Replacement $ 160,000 Central Ditch Dredging $ 95,000 Sub-total Stormwater $1,321,000 Total Construction Cost $4,971,000 Contingency $ 497,100 Services during Construction $ 397,700 Special Studies $ 75,000 Allowance $ 476,300 Total CWSRF Eligible Project Cost $6,417,100 2\ .
