BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
Meeting Date: Thursday, 1/20/00
Bulk Item: Yes D No D
Division: BOCC
Department: Commissioner Williams
AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval of Stormwater Grant Application to the State's
Water Advisory Panel, jointly produced by the South Florida Water Management District
and Monroe County.
ITEM BACKGROUND: This grant is for $2.5 Million, and requires matching funds over
the next five years to the tune of $1.75 Million from the County and other sources. While
the application language has been carefully crafted by staff to allow "wiggle room"
concerning the sources of our match (in fact the South Florida Water Management
District has volunteered to cover additional match requirements), it is very clear that in
order for us to meet our share of the match that we will have to extend the Infrastructure
Sales Tax after the March referendum and subsequently make adjustments to our
calendar of capital improvements, assuming we are so blessed as to actually receive the
grantt. The language of the application is clear, however, that we have not yet
determined the source of those funds.
PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: In 1999, the BOCC approved the contract for a
Master Plan for Stormwater Management in the County. This grant is to be utilized for
implementation of that plan. The County has already applied to the Water Advisory Panel
for a grant for the Big Coppitt wastewater treatment facility and two small stormwater
demonstration projects.

2. Project Purpose
a. A primary purpose of the project is surface water
restoratIOn
~
No
Water quality impacts associated with both stormwater and out dated septic systems
threaten to permanently damage nearshore and offshore communities. In 1999 the Florida
Legislature acknowledged this concern and provided funding towards the development of
a county-wide Stormwater Management Master Plan which is scheduled for completion
which is scheduled for completion in early 2000. The funds requested here will be used to
implement one or more recommendations from the Monroe County Stormwater
Management Master Plan. The implementation could include construction of a
stormwater management system, development of a new stormwater ordinance, retrofitting
an existing system, etc... as determined under the master plan.
3. Restoration Targets
Pursuant to the FKNMS Water Quality Protection Program Document, the effectiveness of
stormwaterltreatment facilities is not well known and is highly dependent on site conditions,
engineering methods and level of maintenance. Estimated reductions in nutrient loading
(percentage of total stormwater nutrients) are 0.2-0.5%, and estimated reductions in sediment
loading are 0.5%-1.0%. (These percentages are Sanctuary-wide; pollution reduction in hot
spots would be much greater). Loading of toxic materials (e.g., metals and hydrocarbons)
has not been estimated, and, therefore the reductions cannot be quantified. However,
storm water control methods would reduce loading of toxic materials into Sanctuary water.
