Page 4 <br />Results of Phase 1 Water Quality Study of Nutrients in the Indian River Farms Water Control District's <br />Stn Street Canal <br />BCC Agenda Item for April 10, 2018 <br />FUNDING <br />The project's cost to date is $3,598 which includes billings from Pace Analytical Laboratory. Staff time is <br />not included. Funding was from Transportation Fund/Stormwater/ Other Professional Services Acct# <br />11128138-033190. Staff estimates laboratory analysis costs to continue investigations will exceed $3,000 <br />assuming minimal additional water sample collection and analyzing only basic parameters. Further, <br />staff personnel resources are not available for additional staff input into this study, requiring the <br />services of outside consultants. Stormwater Division has no existing funding available for the above. <br />However, a budget amendment from the Transportation Fund/Reserve for Contingency can fund this <br />expenditure. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS <br />Because study results show the County's West Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility's wetland <br />system/deep settling pond is not contributing significant nutrients into the 8th Street Canal, staff <br />recommends this study be concluded and the attached report approved. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />Exhibit 1 (Memo) <br />Exhibit 2 (Copy of PowerPoint slides) <br />DISTRIBUTION <br />Public Works Stormwater Division <br />Department of Utility Services <br />APPROVED AGENDA ITEM <br />31 <br />C:\Users\legistar\AppData\Local\Temp\BCL Technologies\easyPDF 8\@BCL@740DFDD9\@BCL@740DFDD9.doc <br />
