Board of County Commissioners <br />Meeting Minutes - Final April 23, 2019 <br />determine the routing of the proposed line, it does and will require the design <br />and construction to meet or exceed industry standards as well as the County's <br />utility construction requirements <br />Attachments: Staff Report <br />Preliminary Engineering Report <br />Plans for North County Reuse Water Main Study <br />Utility Services Director Vincent Burke, through the use of a PowerPoint <br />Presentation, provided the history leading up to the engineering feasibility study <br />and results provided by Schulke, Bittle & Stoddard, LLC (SBS). Hired in <br />December 2018, SBS performed a feasibility analysis to run a 16" reuse <br />transmission main along the Al A corridor to a proposed storage and repump <br />station at the inactive Sea Oaks Wastewater Treatment Plant (SOWWTP). <br />Director Burke detailed the tasks that SBS focused on: 1) Existing Utility <br />Locates; 2) Hydraulic Modeling; and 3) Preliminary Opinion of Probable Cost, <br />and delivered SBS's determination that an adequate area is available to install <br />reuse mains along the east side of SR A1A. He went on to provide details of <br />the proposed route and installation. <br />Director Burke then compared the procedures that would be needed if the <br />Board elected to go with the SBS -recommended A1A route versus the John's <br />Island recommendation of a subaqueous route. <br />County Administrator Jason Brown highlighted the County's commitments <br />regarding the health of the Lagoon. He added that, due to the complexity of <br />the JIWM project, the County hired Brierley Associates, engineering <br />consultants who are experts in the field of Horizontal Directional Drilling <br />(HDD). <br />Administrator Brown then spoke of SBS's recommended A1A route, and the <br />Board's need to compare this option with the JIWM subaqueous route. He <br />noted that the decision today, to be made by the Board following the discussion <br />in Item 13.A., would indicate whether the County grants a Temporary <br />Construction Easement over Hole in the Wall Island and Pine Island for <br />construction of a reuse line, pending JIWM's ability to present satisfactory title <br />work. <br />No Action Taken or Required <br />The Chairman called for a recess at 10:28 a.m., and reconvened the meeting at <br />10:39 a.m., with all members present. <br />13.
