Info

The Pinellas Park Water Management District (PPWMD) was formed in 1976 and is a special district within Pinellas County that manages an approximate 15-square mile jurisdictional area. The PPWMD is divided into 5 subbasins (Channel Basins 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5). The primary stormwater conveyance systems in the watersheds are channelized ditches with various lining material. While the PPWMD is unable to create flood protection ordinances, the primary goal of the PPWMD is to improve and maintain the stormwater management system to contain the 25-year, 24-hour storm event within channel banks and to limit flooding during the 100-year, 24-hour storm event to the streets and yards where possible. A recent effort was untaken by the PPWMD in conjunction with the City of Pinellas Park in which revisions were made and accepted by the Federal Emergency Management Agency for the Flood Insurance Rate Maps of Channels 1, 2, 3 and 4. Additionally, the PPWMD employs staff and owns specialized equipment that are dedicated to maintaining the channels within the PPWMD boundary.

The 10.5- mile long Cross Bayou Canal bisects the watershed and connects to both Old Tampa Bay and Boca Ciega Bay on its northeastern and southwestern ends, respectively. Canal water can flow in either direction depending upon tidal conditions, but normally water from the north and south halves do not mix. Over time the canal has filled in and sediment has blocked flow in the canal from Ulmerton Road to Bryan Dairy road and from Bryan Dairy Road to 102 nd Avenue. This severely limits the hydraulic capacity of the canal and negatively changes the hydraulics of the area. This results in reduced hydraulic response and higher water elevations in the upstream watershed which increases the frequency of flooding. The sediment provides a platform for the recruitment of exotic plants which negatively affect habitat. The cross bayou Canal North Segment is impaired for both Dissolved Oxygen and Total Nitrogen. Removing the sediment to restore the hydraulic function of the canal will assist in improving water quality through increased circulation and flushing of the system along with construction of upstream improvements to be defined in the Cross Bayou Watershed Plan currently under development and cofunded by SWFWMD. Pinellas County is asking for $100,000 for the design of the channel restoration in FY14. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. Pinellas County participates in the National Flood Insurance Program and has adopted a flood plain ordinance. We regulate and manage floodplains up to the 100 yr event. All development is required to receive the proper building and site plan development permits. We participate in the NPDES program and have an ongoing Watershed Management effort throughout the County. We acquire and manage preserve areas, which provide water quality benefits. 141
