atio to approximately 88%, which is well in compliance with the Districts 75% efficiency criteria for a 20 Year Water Use Permit. Cost..Cost Benefit Ratio: Based on a total project cost estimate of $6,126,000, and a total initial offset of 0.40 MGD, the Cost/ Benefit ratio would be 3.69. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. The City encourages potable water conservation through a conservation rate structure and through enforcement of water restrictions by the Plant City Police Department. The City's Water Conservation ordinance requires all potable water users consuming 25,000 GPD or more to develop and submit a water conservation plan. Conservation of reclaimed water is encouraged through metering all services and the use of a conservation rate structure. The City's Water Conservation program includes educational efforts to encourage the efficient use of both potable and reclaimed water. Water conservation education activities include a combination of presentations to community organizations and one-on-one meetings with individual residential and commercial customers exhibiting unusually high water use. The City has also recently implemneted a Water Budget for irrigation of City owned and managed properties. Examples of some of the City's reclaimed water program brocures are provided in the attached documents. New developments are required to install reclaimed water infrastructure as a condition of their development approvals, where the City expects that reclaimed water supply will be reasonably available.

The watershed covers an area of approximately 15 square miles and is located in Western Pasco County. Issues in this watershed are flood damage, rapid growth and water quality. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. Pasco County adopted Ordinance 01-08 requiring the following: one day/week irrigation restrictions for potable water; curtailed use of potable water for irrigation when rain has occurred within 24 hours; scheduled availability and restricted use of reclaimed water irrigation to distribute limited supply to as many customers as possible; washing of non-business, personal vehicles only using low volume methods and over non-impervious surfaces; prohibiting aesthetic uses of water unless such use also provides a necessary aeration or water quality benefit; and the use of reclaimed water for road construction activities when available. Enforcement of this ordinance is by designated County personnel and law enforcement officers. During Water Year 2007, 100% of Pasco County Utilities¿ wastewater was reused. The bulk rate charged for the use of reclaimed water is $0.72 per 1,000 gallons, and a flat rate of $14.82 per month (without meter) and $7.14 per month plus $0.32 per 1,000 gallons (with meter) per ERU for residential irrigation. Pasco County¿s potable water rates are applied in a water conservation inclining block rate. County Ordinance 93-16 requires each new development to construct a reclaimed water distribution system as a condition of wastewater service when the development is within designated areas in the Reclaimed Water Master Plan and when providing the development with reclaimed water supply is determined in the best interest of the County. Pasco County participates in the National Flood Insurance Program, administered through the FEMA. All finished floor elevations are required to be above the 100-year flood elevation. These elevations are reviewed prior to construction and certified after construction. Fill Ordinance, adopted 3/05, requires permit applications and review for placement of fill greater than 5 CY on properties.
