Project Description: |

Construction of a 12" diameter deep injection well which will provide effluent disposal capacity of 5.04 million gallons a day. Currently the Immokalee Water & Sewer District (IWSD) utilizes a 260-acre irrigation sprayfield for effluent disposal of 2,500,000 gallons of treated wastewater. Since the sprayfield was placed into service in the late 1980's the sprayfield has had difficulty handling all the treated effluent. Generally the underlying geology of the sprayfield is such that all of the 2,500,000 gallons of effluent cannot be irrigated at the sprayfield without a portion of the effluent mixing with storm water and causing concerns offsite. The Deep Injection Well will be built on land already owned by IWSD, at the Wastewater Plant. Two 2600 gpm transfer pumps will be necessary to pump the effluent down the injection well. A monitoring well is also included in the project. Other improvements at the wastewater plant include an additional digested sludge pump system, generator, 2,000 g Diesel AST & Dispenser, hydraulic improvements, and other miscellaneous improvemnts. Under collection system improvements, we propose to construct a gravity sewer line in the Baker Street area. IWSD receives sewage from a 16-lot residential area bordered by Baker Street to the east, Fourth Street to the west, and Eighth Avenue to the south. There is an existing colllection system that was never accepted by IWSD due to poor construction methods. Residents experience severe problems with their collection systems, and frequent sewer back-ups and overflows have caused concerns from the Health Department and the Department of Environmental Protection. |

Services Provided/Benefit to State: |
|
|
|
|
|
||||
The proposed deep injection well project will resolve a documented recurring water quality violation in the project area. The Department of Environmental Protection issued COnsent Order No. 97-0892-11-DW to IWSD on May 20, 1997. The Consent Order stated that IWSD violated F.A.C. Rule 62-600.740(2)(a) which prohibits the unauthorized discharge of sewage or wastewater without proper treatement. The Consent Order was prepared because reuse water was observed discharging from the sprayfield off site in March 1997. |

Measurable Outcome Anticipated: |
|
|
|
|
|
||||
The proposed project will resolve this recurring problem by providing a means of disposal of the wastewater effluent during conditions when the sprayfield's soils are saturated and they can no longer accept irrigation water. |
