The Alafia River watershed management master plan study was completed in 2001, updated 2010. Many projects were identified to alleviate flooding, enhance water quality, and protect the natural system. AR-4, Providence Road drainage improvement, is one of the projects to be implemented. In the Tributary N-11 drainage system, which drains Providence Road and Crescent Lake Drive, there are two flooding LOS deficiencies that were identified in the flooding conditions assessments. The modeling results indicate that 0.9 feet of water will inundate the intersection of Providence Road and Watson Road during the 25-year storm. This flooding problem is one of the most severe with respect to both flood depth and extent of inundation in the entire watershed, and was clearly evident during and after the Tropical Storm Gabrielle in September 2001. This intersection was inundated by > a foot of water, severe road, property and house flooding occurred downstream of this intersection all the way to the Alafia River. It was flooded during Hurricane Frances (2004) with 5 separate flooding complaint locations including; Watson Rd/Providence Rd intersection, Two other Providence Rd. locations, Cresent Lake Dr and Mathers Ln. The entire drainage system from the Watson Road intersection to the river needs improvements to alleviate flooding. Almost every driveway culvert in the Providence Road channel downstream of this intersection is crushed, buried or silted up. The problem is compounded by the extremely flat grade of the channel. A LOS deficiency was also identified at the cross drain under Crescent Lake Drive, which is part of the downstream drainage system. Further downstream is the Alafia Drive cross drain where both structures are unmaintained, aged and insufficient. Additionally, the channel downstream of the Alafia Drive crossing is undersized and needs to be widened to convey the higher flows resulting from removing the upstream constrictions in the drainage system. The alternative includes the replacement of all the undersized culverts within the Crescent Lake Drive/Providence Road conveyance system with 4’ x 8’ or 5’X8’ RCBCs and upgrade the creeks and ditches. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. Water Conservation: Hillsborough County was the premier local government to criminalize the violation of water use restrictions, and to adopt a civil citation process for the enforcement of the same in July 1993.
