countywide reclaimed water transmission and distribution system , it would be preferable to have the entire County Urban Service Area designated as Reuse Service Area by FDEP . This would allow the County to provide reclaimed water service to individual residents in identified developments and other land uses without having to go through a permit modification process each time. To have the entire limits of the County designated as Reuse Service Area, however, it is necessary to prepare a Reclaimed Water Master Plan, identifying how the area in question will be provided with public access reclaimed water service and who the major reclaimed water users in the area are expected to be. PROJECT OBJECTIVE The overall objectives of this project are to perform the reclaimed water system master planning necessary for FDEP to designate one or more Reuse Service Areas in Indian River County and to establish an implementation strategy for providing reclaimed water service to individual homes and businesses in the County' s Urban Service Area. More specifically, project objectives include the following : • Develop a wastewater reuse strategy that is responsive to the County' s overall water resources needs, while addressing short-term requirements for effluent disposal capacity. • Identify the current and projected future availability and demand for reclaimed water, as well as the location of potential customers in relation to production facilities . • Identify feasible reuse alternatives, considering current and potential future markets for reclaimed water. • Develop a County-wide Reuse Service Areas in Indian River County so that a Permit for Reclaimed Water can be obtained for the entire area, from any of the County's four WWTFs. • Develop conceptual layouts and planning level cost estimates for low pressure, pressurized and hybrid reclaimed water delivery systems in each proposed Reuse Service Area • Identify a preferred approach for funding capital improvements required for reclaimed water system implementation. • Develop mechanisms for coordinating the technical and economic requirements of the reclaimed water system with the County' s ordinances and Comprehensive Plan . The following describes the work to be performed by BC in preparing the Indian River County Reclaimed Water System Implementation Plan.
