M. Abandoned Flow Well Plugging -Program (Contract_ Addendum) The Board reviewed memo from the Chief of Environmental Planning: TO: James Chandler County Administrator DEPARTMENT HEAD CONCURRENCE: 40 Ro ert 7M. ea if iA Community Development Director FROM: Roland M. DeBloiss, AICP Chief, Environmental Planning DATE: March 6, 1990 RE: Abandoned Flow Well Plugging Program Contract Addendum with SJRWMD It is requested that the data presented herein be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular meeting of March 13, 1990. DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS: On July 18, 1989, The Board of County Commissioners approved the allocation of $15,000.00 in the 89/90 fiscal year budget for a well plugging cost -share program with the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD), to facilitate the plugging of abandoned artesian flow wells on a county -wide basis. SJRWMD has drafted an agreement for Indian River County to approve in order to implement the program for which funding was allocated. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS: On October 3, 1989, Indian River County and SJRWMD entered into a similar agreement whereby matching funds are being utilized for the plugging of abandoned wells on County Utilities owned proper- ty. The proposed addendum agreement would "piggy -back" the already executed agreement, to allow for the county -wide well plugging cost -share program implementation. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners enter into the addendum agreement with SJRWMD for the county -wide abandoned flow well plugging cost -share program. ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Com- missioner Bird, the Board unanimously approved the addendum agreement with SJRWMD for the county -wide abandoned flow well plugging cost -share program.
