Six phases of a single project consisting of the construction of a 70 acre stormwater pond (Geiger Pond) near the headwaters of the creek and channel improvements were identified. Through cooperative funding and HUD grant funds the pond has been completed. The pond was nearly 95% excavated during Tropical Storm Francis and performed perfectly. Many structures were saved from flooding. Proposed FEMA map updating show that hundreds of structures will be removed from the flood plain. In order to complete the entire Lake Zephyr Watershed Management Plan additional funding is being requested. The entire project consists of five channel improvement phases (1,2,3,4 and 6) in addition to the pond (Phase 5). Phases 1 and 2 have been designed and permitted including a redesign of Phase 1 to reduce acquisition costs. Some Community Development Block Grant money along with some FEMA money has been used for the design and to install box culverts under US 301 and Dean Dairy Road (portions of Phases 2 and 4). FY 2007 funding was used to redesign and repermit Phases I and II. Phase 1 involves channel improvements from US Highway 301 to the Hillsborough River. Phase 2 consists of road crossing improvements from US Highway 301 to C Avenue in Zephyrhills. The project was delayed due to acquisition of the drainage easements within Phase 1 and on September 13 2012 the original cooperative funding agreement was discontinued. FY 2014 and subsequent fund is being requested to begin construction of Phases I and II and the design and permitting of the subsequent phases. Due to the large funding requirements, acceleration of the funding schedule may be requested at a later date Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. Pasco County has adopted Ordinance 01-08 requiring the following: one day per week irrigation restrictions for potable water; curtailed use of potable water for irrigation when rain has occurred within the last 24 hours; scheduled availability and restricted use of reclaimed water for lawn and landscape irrigation to 2 days per week county-wide to serve 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 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 2004, 100% of Pasco County Utilities¿ wastewater was reused. The bulk rate currently charged for the use of reclaimed water is $0.61 per 1,000 gallons and a flat rate of $11.00 per ERU per month for residential irrigation. Pasco County¿s potable water rates have been adjusted with steeper water conservation inclining block rates. County Ordinance 93-16 69
