4. ADDITIONS/DELETIONS TO THE AGENDA/EMERGENCY <br />ITEMS -NONE <br />Chairman Davis announced that there were no changes to today's Agenda. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner O'Bryan, SECONDED <br />by Chairman Davis, the Board unanimously approved the <br />Agenda as presented. <br />5. PROCLAMATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS <br />S.A. PRESENTATION BY FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT <br />Amy Brunjes, External Affairs Manager for Florida Power and Light (FPL), 1050 SE <br />Brandon Circle, Port St. Lucie, reported that FPL would be building and operating a 300 -mile <br />underground gas pipeline, the Florida EnergySecure Line, along the eastern portion of Florida. <br />She divulged that currently there were only two major pipelines, which are almost near capacity, <br />in the State of Florida, and that the Florida EnergySecure Line would be the first natural gas <br />pipeline in the State of Florida only. <br />Bob Sharra, Pipeline Project Director, through a PowerPoint presentation (copy on file), <br />presented an overview of the Florida EnergySecure Line. He stated that natural gas was a key <br />component of FPL's energy package, currently comprising 53% of their fuel mix. He explained <br />the need for a third natural gas line in the State, and used a map to show the preliminary pipeline <br />corridor route, which would begin in Bradford County, and traverse fourteen counties, including <br />Indian River, which would contain about 28 miles of the pipeline. He outlined the benefits of the <br />project, which included maintaining energy security by fuel diversity; clean energy; and job <br />creation (including an estimated 355 jobs in Indian River County); and which would yield, over a <br />an estimated forty years, a total of $33,098,776 in property taxes in the County. Concluding, <br />Mr. Sharra presented the timeline and FPL's goal for the project to be in commercial operation <br />by 2014. <br />2 <br />June 2, 2009 <br />
