| Project Description: |
| Phase III of the Community Enhancement Project is currently in the design stage consists of the west island north of Kane Concourse. This area consists of approximately 74 acres and contains approximately 10 acres of roadways. The existing drainage system consists of independent inlet and pipe systems. There are approximately 11 of these isolated inlet systems that collect excess stormwater runoff and discharge it directly into Biscayne Bay at 11 pipe outfall locations. These drainage systems currently do not provide any water quality treatment. In order to provide stormwater quality treatment, it is anticipated that a drainage system similar to the system used in Phase I will be constructed. The improvements in Phase III include reducing the total number of existing outfalls, interconnecting the multiple drainage systems using an average pipe diameter of 30", placing weirs and flap gates in the first drainage structure upstream of each outfall, and adding 4 stormwater injection wells to be fed by a single pump rated at 9,000 gallons per minute. Additional backup information is also attached. |

| |
| Will this project reduce pollutant loadings to a water management district designated 'priority' surface water body? |
Yes |
| |
Name of water body: |
Biscayne Bay |
| |
| 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: |
| This project will reduce pollutant loading to Biscayne Bay by provided water quality pretreatment of stormwater prior to discharge into the Bay. Currently, the stormwater in Phase III area of Bay Harbor Islands discharges stormwater directly in the Bay with no pretreatment. The proposed project will provide pretreatment for the first one-inch of runoff from the right-of-way and directly connected impervious areas. The methods used to accomplish the pollutant load reductions include: reducing the existing number of outfalls, interconnecting the multiple drainage systems, placing weirs and flap gates in the first drainage structure upstream from each outfall to contain initial stormwater runoff, and adding injection wells with stormwater pumps. The pump system will also include settlement structures upstream of the pump, a system pressure monitoring device, a rain detector gauge, a timer and float system to control the pump and a manifold to feed the two infiltration wells. The anticipated Pollutant Load Reductions are summarized in the table below. |
