In 1997, the City initiated Phase I of this program, which has since resulted in the replacement of over 32,000 conventional toilets with low flow models. Interest in the program and the range of program participants has continued. The 2014 project will be the seventeenth year of this ongoing effort and is expected to provide rebates for the replacement of approximately 700 high flow toilets with high efficiency toilets that offer 20% greater efficiency than ultra-low flow (ULF) models. Utilizing the District's methodology, the overall cost effectiveness of this program is $1.74 per thousand gallons saved, and is expected to save more than 115 million gallons of water over the next 20 years, affecting the entire tri-county area since water savings in St. Petersburg has a positive effect on regional water supplies and assists in protection of natural systems. During 2014, efforts to target audiences who have not participated, including low income residential households, will include GIS mapping and alternative marketing methods. A consultant will be utilized to assist with program administration. Another goal of this project is to educate program participants on methods of indoor water conservation and proper maintenance practices that ensure that low flush toilets remain water conservative fixtures by providing participants educational materials on leak detection and proper replacement flapper selection and installation. Educational materials on indoor and outdoor water conservation techniques will also be disseminated. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. The City Administration has been proactive in the development of ordinances vital to achieving the desired objective of management of water resources and flood protection. Watering restrictions have been established through City Ordinance 842-F and 178-G. A Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (Chapter 16 of the City Code) was adopted by City Council in March of 2002. In 1994, the St. Petersburg Stormwater Management Master Plan was completed and SWFWMD conceptual permits were obtained for the proposed projects. The St. Petersburg Stormwater Management Master Plan also addresses level of service criteria and serves as the guide document for City ordinances and pending drainage improvements within the City of St. Petersburg. Ordinance No. 2017-F and 147-G regulates the control and management of drainage and surface waters in harmony with the City Comprehensive Plan and SWFWMD regulations. Building developments are regulated in terms of the quantity and quality of stormwater runoff. Water pollution protection is provided by Chapter 11, Section 2 of City Code, which identifies unlawful discharges into the public drainage system and provides for prosecution of violators. The City participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). In order to qualify for the program, the City adopted and enforces Article VII Flood Damage Prevention 75
