Will this project reduce pollutant loadings to a water management district designated 'priority' surface water body? Yes
  Name of water body: Upper Kissimmee Chain of Lakes
 
Describe how it will reduce loadings, identify anticipated load reductions for total suspended solids, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and other contaminants, and specify the practices that will be used to reduce loadings:
Since 2001, the City has documented 27,000,000 gallons of exfiltration per year during dry season and 90,000,000 gallons per year of infiltration during the wet season. An 800,000 gallon discharge of contaminated water toward the lake was reported to FDEP in 2003. The project will substantially reduce these discharges and their contaminants, but modeling has not been conducted to quantify specific pollutant load reductions.
