<br />(Clerk’s Note: Chairman Lowther entered the meeting at 9:05 a.m.) <br /> <br />5, STATEWIDE SUSTAINABLE WATER SUPPLY ISSUES – PAT <br />GLEASON, PH.D., P.G., VICE PRESIDENT – CAMP DRESSER <br />AND MCKEE (CDM) AND FORMER GOVERNING BOARD <br />MEMBER, SOUTH FLORIDA WATER MANAGEMENT <br />DISTRICT <br />Dr. Pat Gleason <br /> stated Indian River County has been one of the first counties to <br />implement reverse osmosis as an alternative water supply. Many utilities are turning to this <br />technology now that there are so many areas that are water short in the State of Florida. <br />Sustainable water can be available to meet demands over the next twenty years in Indian River <br />County with timely development of advanced technologies, alternative water supplies, treatment <br />of reclaimed water and water conservation. <br /> <br />6. STATE OF WATER MANAGEMENT IN FLORIDA - HENRY <br />DEAN, J.D., FORMER EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, SOUTH <br />FLORIDA AND ST. JOHNS RIVER WATER MANAGEMENT <br />DISTRICTS <br />Henry Dean, J.D <br />., stated the Water Resources Act of 1975 created the five <br />Regional Water Management Districts and the Consumption Use Act. The State shifted from <br />only being concerned about flood control to water consumption and quality in the 1970’s, 80’s <br />and 90’s. In the late 1990’s the State started doing regional planning for the future on how to <br />sustain growth. The 2005 Legislative session passed Senate Bill 444 that appropriated <br />$200,000,000 to local regions to develop alternative water supplies as needed to ensure a <br />sustainable growth of water supply to meet the growing demands and not damage the <br />environment. <br />SUSTAINABLE WATER RESOURCES 2 <br />November 9, 2005 <br /> <br />
