Background
The applicant is requesting a variance to allow for a swimming pool with deck that will encroach
into the required 50-foot setback from the mean high water line. There is an existing concrete
retaining wall on this property.
Land Use Compatibility:
G:\Planning and Zoning Board\lnfo Summanes\2008\V A-0807 - laCroix - 105 Carlson Cove. doc
The proposed residential usEt is compatible with the surrounding residential uses along Carlson
Cove.
Adequate Public Facilities: .
This site is served by the City's water and sewer service area and has direct roadway access to
Carlson Cove.
Natural Environment
This site is has no known environmental issues.
Comprehensive Plan Consistency:
Policy 1.4.3 of the Future Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan states that, if necessary,
the City may reduce limitations on infill and redevelopment activities consistent with the land
uses and densities indicated in this plan in situations that will not jeopardize public health,
safety or welfare.
Other matters
The original building plans for the residence indicate a stormwater retention pond was placed in the
rear of this property in the area where the pool construction is proposed. Prior to development, the
Environmental Services Department must approve the revised stormwater plan.
Per the City of Edgewater Land Development Code Section 21-10.04, in order to grant a non-
administrative variance, the P&ZB shall make the following findings of fact:
1. That granting of the proposed variance is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan;
2. That granting of the proposed variance will not result in creating or continuing a use,
which is not compatible with adjacent uses in the area;
3. That granting of the proposed variance is the minimum action available to permit
reasonable use of the property;
4. That the physical characteristics of the subject site are unique and not present on
adjacent sites; and
5. That the circumstances creating the need for the variance are not the result of actions by
the applicant, or actions proposed by the applicant.

Introduction
This Water Supply Facilities Work Plan (Work Plan or FWSWP) is prepared in confonnance
with Section 163.3184(3)(a) FS and Rule 9J-l1.006(1)(a)3 FAC. It is based on the
infonnation provided in the Data & Analysis prepared by Quentin Hampton Associates, Inc.
relative to water demand projections, the water supply alternatives, the water conservation
practices, the reuse practices, and the improvements to facilities that are necessary to meet
demands. The Work Plan is the City's plan to meet current water demands and the
anticipated growth in demand within its jurisdiction through 2018. The following items
are included herein or attached for reference:
. Figure I shows the City's utility service area.
. Attachment A - 19991nterlocal Agreement with Volusia County
. Attachment B - Consumptive Use Permit
. Attachment C - 2007 Tri-Party Agreement (City of Edgewater, City of Oak Hill
and V olusia County
. Attachment D - Data and Analysis as prepared by Quentin L. Hampton Associates
The City of Edgewater owns and operates the Alan R. Thomas Water Treatment Plant
(WTP) and related facilities to supply the water needs of the City and a portion of Volusia
County. The City of Edgewater provides both wholesale and retail water service. On
October 26, 1999, an Agreement was signed to provide wholesale water service to V olusia
County. In 2007, a Tri-Party Agreement was executed to provide additional wholesale
water service to V olusia County to service areas within the City of Oak Hill. The County
owns a distribution system within the southeast quadrant of Vol usia County that is
dependent upon Edgewater's supply of treated potable water. The areas subject to these
agreements are illustrated on Figure I. The agreements include a transfer of water and
establish a rate structure for capacity charges and user fees. The City and County will be
updating and revising the agreement to account for future needs.
Magnolia Village is a private provider of potable water within the Edgewater service area.
Current use is approximately 50,000 gallons per day (gpd). The area is shown on Figure I.
The owners of Magnolia Village have discussed the possibility of connecting to the City's
distribution system, but have not yet decided to do so. The City has cooperated with
developers of adjacent subdivisions, ensure the availability of distribution infrastructure
when and if Magnolia Village decides to connect, and will continue to do so. The build-out
demand of approximately 50,000 gpd associated with Magnolia Village is not included in
the City's current projections or CUP.
The Potable Water Svstem
Water Treatment Plant
The City of Edgewater is served by the Alan R. Thomas Water Treatment Facility, which
has a rated capacity of 5.0 million gallons per day (mgd). The plant is described as an
enhanced lime softening facility. Current demand is less than 50% of plant capacity.
High Service Pumping and Storage
The primary storage and pumping facilities are located at the Alan R. Thomas Water
Plant. The plant site includes a 1.0 million gallon reservoir and a site reserved for a future
tank of a similar size. The tank is a pre-stressed composite design reinforced concrete
structure. It includes a domed roof in order to maintain quality prior to distribution. There
are 225,000 gallons of storage in the clear well at the plant and 150,000 gallons in the
Kumquat Tower.
The City retains a storage and booster pump station at the old water plant site on Park
A venue. That facility has 600,000 gallons of available storage.
Distribution system pressure is provided by three 200 HP vertical turbine pumps. At the
Park A venue site there are two 100 HP and two 75 HP booster pumps.
Water Supply Source
The City of Edgewater utilizes groundwater from a series of Upper Floridian Aquifer
wells as its source of potable water supply. The wells are all located within the City's
service area. There are currently 10 wells in two well fields, 4 wells in the Western
Wellfield and 6 wells in the A. R. Thomas Wellfield. The current combined total
pumping capacity is 3,300 gallons per minute (gpm) and 4.75 mgd. The firm capacity
(largest well out of service) is 2,850 gpm (4.1 mgd). The only other significant source of
fresh water is the St. Johns River, which is 26 miles away
Facility Needs for the Provision of Potable Water
As previously stated, the City's traditional water supply source from Floridian Aquifer will
be able to meet the City's demand under its current land use plans until 2018. Over the tenn
of the Work Plan, the City of Edgewater will improve/maintain the existing water
production and distribution systems within the service area The City is also planning for
the Restoration DRI project which lies on 5,181 acres of vacant land, annexed in 2005, and
is also currently undergoing review within the DR[ and Comprehensive Plan Amendment
processes. In addition, the City has started planning on alternative water supplies for future
demand beyond the tenn of this Work Plan. The projects are summarized as follows:
Water Treatment Plant:
The 5 MGD City of Edgewater will not need significant capital expansion improvements in
the next 10 years. Anticipated work at the treatment plant includes rehabilitation and
replacement (R&R) of existing process equipment, pumps, electrical components and
media. The City has budgeted approximately $300,000 in the FY '08/'09 Capital
Improvements Plan (C.l.P.) to construct the necessary R&R work and process upgrades at
the WTP.
The City recognizes the likelihood of the Restoration DR! proceeding to approval. Currently
under DR! and CPA consideration is the proposal for 8,500 residential units and 3.2 million
sq. ft. of retail/commercial/office use. The additional wells, as currently proposed, can
physically provide adequate supply, however additional consumptive use permitting for the
additional withdrawal will be required. The City will apply for a modification to the CUP to
add approximately I t>1GD of groundwater withdrawal to accommodate Restoration upon
approval of the proposed CPA and finalization of the development program within the DRI
process.
The City will coordinate with the Restoration developer and the St Johns River Water
Management District (SIR WMD) to develop an assured plan for modifications to the water
plant that will use brackish groundwater to provide the additional potable water needs.
Restoration will use alternative water supplies from reuse wastewater and stormwater for
irrigation as discussed below. The City and Restoration will enter into an enforceable,
executed agreement assuring the timely delivery of additional water supply facilities to
support the development and conform to the City's concurrency criteria.
Water Supply Wells:
The projected growth of the City requires the installation of new wells to meet increased
demand. The existing and proposed well facilities and water allocations as set forth in the
SJRWMD Consumptive Use Permit (CUP) will satisfy the City water demands including
Restoration water demands through the end of its first phase. The proposed additional well
facilities as per the approved CUP are included in two improvements projects that are part
of the City's five-year plan:
I) Wells # 17-20
Four new 12-inch diameter water supply wells, access roadways, electrical
service and raw water transmission in the A.R. Thomas Wellfield are proposed.
The City owns the land.
2) Wells #21-24
Four (4) new 12-inch diameter water supply wells, raw water piping, electric
service, telemetry and instrumentation are proposed. Developer of Restoration
D.R.l will provide well sites and paved access to each.
Remote storage tank and pump station proiects:
Two remote storage tank and pump station projects are included in the City's 5 year plan.
I) S.E. Service Area Storage Tank and Pump Station
A 1.0 MG storage tank and pump station is proposed for construction to serve
new development along the US- I corridor in the S.B. service area.
2) Restoration Storage Tank and Pump Station
A 1.0 MG storage tank and pump station is proposed for construction to serve
the Restoration D.R.1.
Reclaimed Water Facilities
The reclaimed water system is a complex collection of structures, pumps, pipes, and valves
serving approximately 3,000+/- customers. Typical daily use ranges between 0.8 and 1.7
million gallons (MGD).
The major structural components of the system include three (3) reinforced concrete ground
storage tanks that are available to store reclaimed water and water that fails to meet the
"public access" standard identified in F .A.C. Chapter 62-610. Reject water can be stored in
a dedicated 1.0 MG structure and a dual use 2.25 MG structure. The larger tank can be used
for either reject water or water in compliance with the "public access" standard. This dual
use structure was included in the wastewater plant penn it. The reclaimed system utilizes a
dedicated 2.25 MG structure and the above referenced dual use 2.25 MG tank. Thus during
nonnal operation, the City can store up to 4.5 MG of treated effluent. The availability of
storage allows the City to bank water on days of lower demand (rain days) and thus further
reduce surface water discharge.
The 2 I acre borrow pit adjacent to the WWTP may be used to augment the supply of
reclaimed water, via introduction of stonnwater to the treatment plant for filtration and
disinfection.
System pressurization is derived from seven high service pumps including:
· Two (2) 15-hp pumps (275 gpm),
· Three (3) 60-hp pumps (1,000 gpm), and
· Two (2) 100-hp pumps (1,700 gpm).
This combination of pumps gives the City a delivery rate ranging up to 3,600 gpm (5.2
mgd) while maintaining a pressure level of 70 psi at the plant. At a lower plant residual
pressure of 55 psi, an instantaneous flow of 5,000 gpm can be achieved.
Facility Needs for the Provision of Reuse or Other Non-Potable Water Supply
Reclaimed water service to Restoration D.R.I. will be on a wholesale basis. The City and
developer will participate in construction of transmission facilities from the WWTP to the
site. The developer and successors (e.g. HOA) will own and maintain on-site reuse storage,
pumping and distribution facilities. On-site facilities will include ponds, pumps and
distribution pip mg. Integrated stonnwater/reclaimed water ponds will be used by the
developer to satisfy non-potable demands.
Capital projects necessary to serve Restoration and the V olusia County Southeast Service
Area include wastewater treatment capacity and reclaimed water storage, pumping and
transmission facilities. A capital improvements schedule is included herein. Three projects
are proposed to meet these needs and are included in the City's 5-year plan:
1. Water Reclamation Facility Expansion/Addition
Construction of a 2.5 MOD wastewater plant expansion or of new
facilities within Restoration.
2. Western Reclaimed Water Transmission
25,000 LF, 18" diameter reclaimed water transmission main from the WWTP to
Restoration is required to convey reuse to the site and/or effluent from the D.R.I.
3. Reclaimed Water Interconnection to Southeast Volusia County (SJR WMD
Water Supply Development Project #26, DWSP-2005)
Reclaimed water transmission mains, storage and pumping facilities are
necessary to provide effluent disposal capacity from the County's wastewater
plant and irrigation supply to new developments.
The City will pursue grants, developer funding and SRF low interest loans for
alternative water supply (A WS) development and to fund reclaimed water expansion
programs. 20% cost share participation is available for reclaimed water initiatives. The
City intends to pursue funding for eligible projects under this program.
Other Water Mana2ement Activities
Over the tenn ofthe Work Plan, the City of Edgewater will maintain the following water
supply source protections:
Conservation Practices
The City will continue its program to reduce per capita consumption through
conservation measures to provide capacity to serve additional customers. The City's
water conservation practices include the following:
. Building code requirements for low water volume fixtures in new
construction
. Continuation of City program and participation in the Water Authority
of Vol usia's (W A V) program for public outreach and education
. Continuation of an active program to encourage the use of low volume
toilets
. Meter calibration program for master meters
. Maintenance of the distribution system
. Performing water audits to identify system losses
· Landscape water conservation regu lations that provide landscape

landscapes, plumbing devices, and appliances
· Implementation of a program that provides indoor water audits and
leak detection and irrigation system audits
· Promoting and encouraging the use of low impact development (LID)
techniques.
Reclaimed Water Practices
The City will continue its program to reduce potable groundwater demand by
effectively using reclaimed water for non-potable uses. The City of Edgewater has
operated a very successful reclaimed water system and utilizes more than 90% of the
available effluent. As a result of the City's reuse effort, the City has achieved virtual
total reuse and conserves ground water through its water reclamation program. During
the planning period, the City will implement the reclaimed water system interconnection
to Southeast Volusia County reuse projects for non-potable water supply selected by
Edgewater in response to the District notice subsequent to approval of DWSP 2005.
Policies addressing the following items are included within the Comprehensive Plan:
· Require installation of reuse supply lines
· Require connection of new development or substantial
redevelopment to a reuse system, to supply uses that do not require
potable water
· Use reclaimed water for irrigation and other non-potable needs in
public areas owned by the City.
The City will maintain or enact the following reuse practices:
· Maintain the City's practices of using reclaimed water for irrigation
· Maintain the requirement that all new development connect to
reclaimed water for irrigation purpose
· Maintain the City's recharge program to reduce impacts due to ground
water withdrawals.
Water Conservation Practices
Over the term of the Work Plan for the purpose of off-setting potable water demand, the
City shall maintain the following water conservation practices.
· Potable water supplies may not be used to meet irrigation needs for
new developments in the City's utility service area and new potable
irrigation meters shall be prohibited by the date established. by the
SJRWMD
. All new development within the City's service area shall utilize a dual
distribution system so that irrigation needs are met by using the lowest
quality available water. Developments that are not required to
connect to the existing reclaimed water system shall be required to
install irrigation lines connected to an alternative water supply system
utilizing the lowest quality available water and shall be capable of
connecting to the City's reclaimed water lines when reclaimed water
becomes available in the future. All developments shall be required to
install an irrigation system
. The City's water utility shall continue to use conservation measures such
as use of reclaimed water, improving and accelerating leak detection
surveys and repair programs, installing and calibrating meters, water
restrictions, fixture exchanges and public education.
New or renovated buildings are required to install water conserving plumbing fixtures
that are at a minimum consistent with the requirements of the State Water Conservation Act
. New development shall employ and/or preserve native vegetation, or use drought-
resistant plants for landscaping to the greatest practicable extent. Native or
drought resistant plants include, but are not limited to, those in the Florida Native
Plant Society's Native Plants for Landscaping in Florida, or comparable
guidelines prepared by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer
Services, the Florida Game and Freshwater Fish Commission, the Florida
Department of Natural Resources, the East Central Florida Regional Planning
Council, or the St. Johns Water Management District.
. At least twenty percent (20%) of all landscape material obtained from off-site
sources for use on any site shall have a soil moisture range of 'dry'. No more than
forty percent (40%) of all plant material shall have a high water demand. Plants
shall be grouped according to their water needs and soil conditions.
. The City's water utility will continue to use conservation measures such as use of
reclaimed water for irrigation, improving and accelerating leak detection surveys
and repair programs, installing and calibrating meters and stabi Iizing and
equalizing system pressures, water conservation blocks, and fixture exchanges.
The programs for technological procedural, and/or programmatic improvements
to the production facility, transmission lines, and distribution system to decrease
water consumption include:
o Multi-year well metering program
o Water line replacement Capital Projects Program
o Regular calibration of water facility master meters
o Meter testing, repair and replacement programs
. The City participates in W A V sponsored employee awareness and customer
education programs concerning water conservation that include:
o Brochure mailouts
o City Hall Brochure rack
o Florida Friendly! drought t~lerant demonstration projects
o Moisture sensor demonstration programs
o Water wise education events
· Maintain the City's requirement on the concurrency management system.
Water Supply Source Protection Practices
Over the term of the Work Plan, the City will maintain the following water supply
source protections:
· Maintain the requirements to protect the surficial aquifer recharge areas
· Design surface water management systems to control storm water runoff to
maximize groundwater recharge
· Maintain the City's requirement on deep aquifer water conservation
· Maintain the City's requirements in the City's Land Development Code for the
protection of the aquifer recharge areas and wellfields
· Maintain the requirement that mining activities, resource extraction, junkyards
and outdoor storage of hazardous materials and wastes be prohibited in areas that
serve to recharge the aquifers
· Require agriculture activities to use best management principles and practices to
reduce pesticide and fertilizer run-off.
Intergovernmental Coordination Practices
Over the term of the Work Plan, the City will maintain, enhance or establish
agreements with other water suppliers and users:
· The City remains a paying member of and will continue to work with W A V on
other alternative water supply facilities.

Utility Service Area and Planning Period
A. Service Area Description
(1) Description of Service Area With Map
The City of Edgewater is located in the southeastern part of Volusia County just
south of New Smyrna Beach and north of Oak Hill. The City is characterized as
a typical coastal community providing central water, wastewater, and reclaimed
water service to residential, commercial, and light industrial areas of the City.
The current utility service area has a population of approximately 24,899 (2007).
The water, wastewater, and reclaimed water service areas are identified on the
enclosed map.
A Utility Service Area Map illustrating Edgewater's municipal boundary and
service area is included as Figure 1-1. The limits shown are consistent with the
City's comprehensive plan and consumptive use permit (C.U.P).
No significant service area boundary changes are expetted for the duration of
this Water Supply Work Plan. The planning period for the work plan is 10 years,
ending in 2017. Population and flow projections are illustrated through 2025.
The City's current consumptive use permit (C.U.P.) is valid through 2027.
A certain portion of residents in the service area continue to be served by wells
and septic tanks. Data provided by SJRWMD indicates that approximately 2,300
people in the service were 'unserved' in 2005. The majority of these are
individual properties with 1-5 acre lots. No specific plans are in place to serve
these residents. One potential exception is Magnolia Village, it is shown on
Figure #1-1.

The mobile home park contains 200 units and approximately 400 residents. The
park operates a private water system and does not intend to connect to the City,
at this time. The City has cooperated with developer's of adjacent parcels to
insure that hydraulic capacity and infrastructure is in place to serve Magnolia
Village if they decided to connect at a later date. Demand associated with
connection of Magnolia Village is not included in current projections.

past ten (10) years.
Historically, population in the Edgewater utility service area has exhibited steady
growth. Development trends in the area remain strong and population is
expected to increase throughout the planning period. A decline in the rate of
population increase is expected to occur in the primary service area as the area
approaches build-out. Historical population increases in the utility service area
since 1997 are detailed below in table 1-2.

(3) Unincorporated ~ervice Areas and Wholesale Agreements
The City of Edgewater provides both wholesale and retail water service. On
October 26, 1999, an Agreement was signed to provide wholesale water service
to Volusia County. The County owns a distribution system within the southeast
quadrant that is dependent upon Edgewater's supply of treated potable water.
Areas subject to this agreement are illustrated on Figure #1-1. The Agreement
includes a transfer of up to 270,000 gallons per day and establishes a rate
structure for capacity charges and user fees. Significant developments served in
4
EW31.J water supply work plan revised 120 I 08 el
the unincorporated area include Hacienda del Rio, Boston Whaler, Waterfront
Park, South Waterfront Park, Fisherman's Cove, and Lighthouse Cove. Current
demand is approximately 300,000 GPD, annual avg. daily flow (AADF).
In addition, Magnolia Village is a private provider of potable water within the
Edgewater service area. They currently use approximately 50,000 gallons per
day. The area is shown on Figure #1-1. The owners of Magnolia Village have
discussed the possibility of connecting to the City's distribution system, but have
decided not to. The City has cooperated with developers of adjacent sub-
divisions to insure the availability of distribution infrastructure when/if Magnolia
Village decides to connect.
Demand associated with serving Magnolia Village is not included in the current
projections. If the status of this area changes, the City will adjust its projections
accordingly.

EW31.1 water supply work plan revised 120108 el
I Section II
Existing and Alternative Water Sources
A. Historic Dependence on Ground Water for Public
Use
(1) Hydrogeologic Setting
The City of Edgewater utilizes groundwater from the Floridan Aquifer as its
source of potable water supply. The only other significant source of fresh water
is the St. Johns River, which is 26 miles away.
Geology
Regional geologic data collected by various sources indicates that the water
plant and wellfield areas are underlain by unconsolidated Pleistocene and
Holocene deposits consisting of fine to medium quartz sands, clayey sand and
localized shell beds. Surficial deposits are underlain by sediments of Pliocene to
late Miocene age consisting of sand, shells and calcareous clay.
Underlying these unconsolidated deposits is the Ocala limestone formation which
is composed of cream to white fossiliferous limestone. Its thickness is generally
less than 100 feet. Beneath the Ocala limestone is the Avon Park limestone of
late-middle Eocene Age. It consists of layers of dark brown dolomite separated
by layers of chalky limestone. The formation thickness is estimated at
approximately 300 feet (Wyrick, 1960). Production wells at the Thomas and
Western sites are open holes from approximately 110 feet to 250 feet below
grade, and are withdrawing from the Ocala and Avon Park limestone.
6
EW31.1 water supply work pllln revised 120 I 08 cl
Hydrogeology
A thin clay layer serves as an intermediate confining unit which hydraulically
separates the potentiometric heads of the Upper Floridan Aquifer (UFA) from the
surficial aquifer system (Phelps, 1990). The potentiometric surface represents
the water surface elevation in the aquifer, in an unconfined condition. Based on
data obtained annually by S1. Johns River Water Management District, typical
potentiometric water surface elevations of the UFA in the vicinity of the wellfields
ranges from 0 to 10 feet NGVD.
Ground surface elevations at the wellfields and corresponding water
table/surficial aquifer elevations are approximately 30 feet NGVD. As a result of
the net downward gradient between the surficial aquifer and UFA, and leakance
through the confining layer, the terrace and ridge areas provide some recharge to
the UFA. Recharge rates are estimated at 8 or 9 inches per year (Phelps, 1990).
The source of water for the surficial aquifer is primarily local rainfall. Water is
stored in the pore space of the soils. Water exists in the surficial aquifer via
downward leakance, horizontal flow to drainage ways and evapotranspiration.
The volume available for withdrawal from the Volusia Floridian Aquifer is
dependent upon the surficial system. Any discussion of the surficial aquifer in
the Edgewater service area should point out the positive aspects of the Miocene
Age clay. This clay helps assure the water quality of the municipal supply. The
ion exchange potential of the material forms a protective barrier to the downward
migration of pollutants. Nevertheless, improper waste disposal must be isolated
from the surficial aquifer.
It should be noted that the confining layer exhibits leakance and as such,
promotes recharge. This characteristic is valuable as it renews water supplies
withdrawn for consumption; however, leakance creates a hydraulic connection
from the Surficial Aquifer to the UFA. If contamination of the surficial aquifer
occurs, it is possible to compromise the City's water supply.
7
EW31.1 water supply work plan revised \20\08 el
(2) Ground Water Quality
The Floridan aquifer occurs throughout Volusia County within the limestones and
dolomitic limestones of middle to late Eocene age. It provides most of the public
water supply for the County. The Floridan aquifer is subdivided into an upper
and lower part. The Upper Floridan aquifer generally consists of fresh water and
is separated from the Lower Floridan aquifer by a hard, dense dolomite layer and
chalky, low permeable limestone. Water quality below these strata, in the Lower
Floridan aquifer is generally brackish.
Water quality in the Upper Floridan aquifer is generally good, with some areas of
concern. Over-pumping and wells constructed too deep would tend to degrade
the water quality over time with respect to chlorides and sulfates. Table 2-1
illustrates the range of water quality that could be expected from Upper Floridan
aquifer wells, as well as water quality results from City of Edgewater wells.
Water quality varies across portions of the County. Generally, water quality is
best in the northwest quadrant and deteriorates approaching the St. Johns to the
west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east. Lime softening is practiced in
Edgewater to reduce hardness.

(3) Recharge
The Floridan Aquifer in Volusia County has been designated a sole source
aquifer by the USEPA. The limits of the sole source aquifer roughly equate to
the boundaries of the County. Therefore it is replenished only by rainfall which
falls within its borders. The main recharge area is the Deland Ridge in the
western section of the County. The Rima Ridge in eastern Volusia County also
provides some recharge to the Floridan Aquifer. The rate of recharge is
dependent upon 1) difference in head between the surficial aquifer and the
Floridan Aquifer and 2) the presence and continuity of confining clay layers
between the aquifers.

B. Regional Water Supply Planning Implications for
Future Ground Water Usage
(1) Alternative Sources
Deficit Projections
Currently, SJRWMD has not officially identified groundwater deficits associated
with future aquifer withdrawals from the Edgewater wellfields through 2025;
However, a draft document entitled "Implementation Strategy For Achieving The
Minimum Flow Regime for Blue Spring and Other Water Resource Constraints in
Volusia County, Florida" identifies potential 2025 deficits. Potential deficits range
from 0.3 to 1.3 MGD for different scenarios, based upon district modeling results.
This does not currently affect the City's ability to meet projected demands
through the 10 - year study period.
The City of Edgewater was issued a Consumptive Use Permit (CUP) in 2007.
SJRWMD has the legislative authority to limit CUP allocations for individual
permit holders based upon cumulative groundwater withdrawals, and their
potential effect upon spring flows. Therefore, future regional groundwater deficits
could be assigned countywide, but not on a utility by utility basis. In the event
that this occurs, Edgewater should be prepared to meet future demands utilizing
alternative sources as detailed below.
Alternative Water Supply Sources and Options
At the time of this writing, the City of Edgewater has existing firm raw water
supply capacity (largest well out of service) to meet peak day flows of 4.1 MGD
and treatment capacity of 5.0 MGD. Assuming an availability factor of 2.0, well
capacity meets ADF demands of 2.0 MGD. The availability factor is used to
provide rotational capacity and avoid operating wells more than 12 hrs/day.
Current and projected demands exceed 2.0 MGD. As such, the City of
10
EW31.1 water supply work plan revised 1201 08 el
Edgewater has the need for new Floridan Aquifer wells. The recently issued
C.U.P. approved construction of 8 new Floridan Aquifer wells.
The City is a member of the Water Authority of Volusia (WAV). The WAY
interlocal agreement was re-written, the role of WAY as a regional water supplier
limited. This plan assumes that WAY will be, primarily, a planning agency.
The WAY prepared a 'Master Facilities Plan' which was accepted by the
members. Recommendations set forth in the plan indicated that a combination of
techniques should be implemented to meet additional water requirements. Fresh
groundwater will remain the dominant source of water supply, especially in
eastern Volusia County. Alternative water sources identified in the Plan are:
. Surface Water from the St Johns River
. Artificial Recharge and Regional Aquifer Management Plan (RAMP)
projects
. Brackish Groundwater
. Demand Reduction Strategies
Under the revised interlocal agreement, WAY members may implement
alternative water supply projects independently, or as separate sub-groups. In
fact, many of the RAMP projects have been built; others are in the planning or
design stage. Descriptions of alternative water supply strategies are detailed
below. Detailed review and analysis of each source is outside the scope of the
report; however, a brief description is included for reference purposes.
Within this 10-year planning period, Edgewater will satisfy its water supply needs
as an independent entity. The City will continue to rely on fresh groundwater to
satisfy this need for potable supplies, reclaimed water and stormwater will
continue to be used for non-potable and irrigations uses.
11
EW31.1 water supply work plan revised ]20108 el
(a) Surface Water. (St. Johns River)
As previously indicated, proposed Blue Spring MFL Legislation will impact all
Volusia County utility providers withdrawing groundwater from the UFA. The
primary reason for wide-ranging impacts has to do with cumulative effects of
groundwater pumping. As such, utility providers in western Volusia County will
ultimately rely on a surface water plant withdrawing water from the S1. Johns
River. The future surface water plant may ultimately supply the majority of
potable water consumed in western Volusia County, approximately 20 - 30 MGD
by 2025.
Cumulative groundwater withdrawals from the UFA reduce the potentiomentric
surface elevation in the aquifer and consequently reduce flow in Blue Spring.
Under the current Consumptive Use Permitting (CUP) process, water providers
must model the cumulative impacts of not only their groundwater withdrawals,
but also the anticipated withdrawals of others. In virtually every circumstance,
cumulative withdrawals serve to limit CUP groundwater allocations.
A potential mechanism for reducing the effects of cumulative withdrawals is by
reducing the quantity of groundwater withdrawn in the vicinity of Blue Spring.
Doing so increases the volume of groundwater that can be withdrawn by utilities
in other portions of the County. Therefore, a surface water plant immediately
addresses the most urgent water supply need faced by residents throughout
Volusia County.
It is probable that a group consisting of west Volusia utility providers will take the
lead role in constructing a surface water plant on the Sf. John's River. The
Edgewater water system may never directly receive water from the facility;
however, the City will still derive a benefit from the water it produces due to a net
reduction in groundwater withdrawals from the Floridan Aquifer.
12
liW31.1 water supply work plan revised 120108 d
(b) Brackish Groundwater
Brackish groundwater may be withdrawn from the Lower Floridan Aquifer (LFA)
without affecting the Upper Floridan Aquifer (UFA). The LFA is hydraulically
separated from the UFA by a hard, dense dolomite and layers of chalky, low
permeable limestone, which act as a confining layer. The water quality in the
LFA ranges from 5,000 to 10,000 Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). Wells completed
1 into this zone, which occurs at >500 feet below land surface in the Edgewater
area could be used to blend with waters from either UFA or the Surficial Aquifer.
Wells completed into the LFA would not be limited by well yield, since this zone is
typically highly transmissive. But, water quality will require alternative treatment
techniques. The water could be treated using membrane processes or blended
with water from the UFA. If used for "blend wells", the amount of water from this
source would be limited by an acceptable blend ratio to maintain a safe
concentration level below the Drinking Water Standard for Chlorides and Sulfates
of 250 mg/l. This blend ratio would depend on whether the finished water is used
for drinking or irrigation. For finished potable water, the blend product would
need to be between 150 and 200 mg/l.
The brackish waters of the LFA could also be treated using membrane treatment
technology to produce high quality drinking water or lower quality irrigation water.
The primary problem in developing a water supply using brackish water
membrane treatment is concentrate disposal. The preferred concentrate
disposal method is deep well injection. This method has been used in both
southeast and southwest Florida; however, the occurrence of an injection zone
has not yet been proven in Volusia County. A viable injection zone must be
highly transmissive. Other disposal alternatives include discharge to saline
waters, discharge to a publicly owned treatment works (POTW), and blending
with reclaimed water. All of these disposal methods have their limitations and
permitting hurdles. The State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection
(FDEP) may allow a surface water discharge from a small membrane water
treatment plant, or a discharge to a POTW may be allowed depending on the
13
EW31.1 walel supply WUlk plan revised 120 I 08 el
ultimate disposal andlor quality of the blended discharge waters from that
Wastewater Treatment Plant 0NWTP).
Potential deficits which may be faced by Edgewater after 2017 are relatively low,
1 - 2 MGD. Utilizing RIO technology to treat groundwater from the LFA may be
a cost effective option. Groundwater quality is more consistent than brackish
surface water. Transmission, pre-treatment and filtration costs are also less than
for surface water. Further study is required to determine potential service
availability.
The City will participate with other regular utility providers to evaluate the
potential for further utilizing brakish groundwater from the LFA.
(c) Artificial Recharge and RAMP Proiects
RAMP development is on-going. The Phase I Report was completed in 2002.
The Phase II Report was completed in February 2004.
The basin with the largest impact upon the Edgewater water source is the Deep
Creek Basin (168 square miles). The basin was included in the Regional Aquifer
Management Plan Phase II. The technical memorandum prepared for V.W.A.
was titled "Part B Surface Water Control of County Canal and Ditch Systems".
The concept of this RAMP program was to evaluate whether structural water
level controls would reduce runoff discharged to surface water increase recharge
and enhance wetland hydroperiods. RAMP is proposed as a method to increase
the available supply of groundwater.
Deep Creek Watershed lies west of Edgewater. The watershed area is
approximately 168 square miles and the direction of flow is generally north to
south. Elevations range from a high of 75 feet NGVD to a low of 10 feet NGVD.
The slope is generally gradual due to the length of the watershed.
14
EW31.l water supply work plan revised 120108 eI
There are four major watercourses in the basin - Cow Creek, Deep Creek, Lake
Ashby Canal, and Sandy Drain. Cow Creek runs southwest commencing in the
southern portion of the Spruce Creek Swamp and discharges to Deep Creek.
Deep Creek collects flow from Akins Bay Slough and Marsh Swamp, and then
runs in a southeasterly direction to the confluence with Lake Ashby Canal and
south to the S1. John's River. The majority of the basin is comprised of wetlands.
The primary exceptions are cross-county roadways and some bordering sand
ridges. Three soil units are present, the Pomona-Wauchula unit, the Daytona-
Satellite-Cassia unit, and the Samsula- T erra-Ceia- T omoka units. These units
yield a composite hydrologic soil group classification as follows: 6 percent Group
A, 15 percent Group C, and 80 percent Group D. The depth of the water table is
generally at or near the surface in the wetland areas and one to two feet below
ground throughout the rest of the watershed.
Soils in the basin are primarily type 'D' and minimally conducive to recharge.
Most of the property within the Deep Creek Watershed is zoned rural and
wetland/conservation. A review of published data indicates that approximately
60% of the property in the basin is wetland/conservation and only 4% is zoned
residential or commercial. From a future land use perspective, the area is
favorable for continued low to moderate rate recharge to the Volusia Floridan
aquifer.
Another project identified in the Phase I technical memorandum which could
affect Edgewater was the Rima Ridge RAMP. The project involved re-directing
excess reclaimed water, towards reservoirs/recharge basins. The concept is that
properly sited reservoirs and recharge basins will induce additional recharge to
the surficial and Floridan Aquifer Systems. The source of water used to fill the
basins was reclaimed wastewater.
The Rima Ridge RAMP (R3) project involves the East Volusia communities of
Edgewater, New Smyrna Beach, Port Orange, Daytona Beach, Holly Hill and
Ormond Beach.
15
EW31.1 water supply work plan rcvisl.-d 120108 cI
The primary project elements are as follows:
1. Interconnect the existing reclaimed water distribution
systems.
2. Construct three reservoirs/recharge basins in areas
conducive to natural recharge.
3. Re-direct excess reclaimed water from individual utilities
to the proposed reservoirs for storage, aquifer recharge,
and reclaimed water augmentation.
The project eliminates up to 13 MGD of wastewater effluent currently discharged
to the Halifax River and the Indian River Lagoon. All effluent is beneficially
reused via one of the previously referenced techniques. The quantity of water
directed to recharge is a function of on-site geology. The quantity used to
augment reclaimed water supplies is determined by system demand. Water not
recharged or reused will be directed to on-site treatment wetlands and used to
re-establish the natural hydroperiod of wetlands which may be affected by
wellfield pumpage. The anticipated additional recharge should allow increased
groundwater withdrawals from the Rima Ridge area wellfields.
Three primary considerations will affect potential reservoir locations for the Rima
Ridge RAMP.
1. Proximity with respect to zones conducive to recharge,
Le. the Rima Ridge.
2. Proximity to existing wellfields.
3. Property ownership and control.
4. Proximity to reclaimed water sources.
The first consideration, recharge potential, is an over-riding concern. Locating
each of the reservoirs within favorable recharge areas is essential. A large
16
EW31.1 \Voler supply wOlk plaJllevised 120108 eJ
portion of eastern Volusia County provides for little recharge to the Floridan
Aquifer, as such, the Rima Ridge area is one of the few areas where significant
recharge may occur.
The second consideration, proximity to existing wellfields, is important because
potential deficit reduction is more easily accomplished by introducing additional
water in the immediate areas where deficits are predicted. It is not surprising that
the greatest deficits of concern are predicted to occur in the wetland areas
surrounding existing wellfields. Similarly, it is logical to augment water supplies
in the same areas.
The third consideration, property ownership and control, requires little discussion.
Facilities proposed under this program involve large areas, hundreds of acres.
Acquisition of large tracts of contiguous property is a difficult, expensive and time
consuming process. Given that no cost estimates, site plans, environmental
assessments, permit applications, funding requests or design plans may be
prepared without a site, it is important that proposed sites be under public
control. This does not preclude other sites from being considered for future
projects, but all sites evaluated for the R3 project should be under public control
if this program is to be implemented in the near future.
The fourth consideration, proximity to reclaimed water sources, is important in
evaluating the capital costs of transmission main construction. The
interconnection of reclaimed water lines between the Cities should alleviate much
of this concern. Edgewater and Volusia County are moving forward with an
interconnect project.
It should also be noted that projects identified by RAMP have an excellent
chance of being funded by Water Management District grants. Port Orange,
Ormond Beach and DeLand all received grant funds for RAMP projects.
Edgewater continues to participate in W.A.V. and is open to the concept of joint
participation in future ramp projects.
17
EW31.1 water supply work phlll revised 120108 el
(d) Conservation. Reclaimed. and Demand Reduction Strateoies
Existing WA V and member utility conservation programs, such as low flow
showerheads and toilets, rain sensors for lawn irrigation, and education
programs, would stay in effect. The use of reclaimed water to supplement and/or
replace fresh water used for irrigation purposes has been aggressively pursued
by the City of Edgewater. These programs are anticipated to minimize additional
demand increases.
Conservation is an important element of The City's Water Supply Plan. An
aggressive program to reduce per capita consumption can extend the ability of
the utility system to serve additional customers. The City's water conservation
practices, include the following:
· The building code requires low water volume fixtures in new construction.
· Will continue to conduct its own program and participate in WAV's public
outreach and education program.
· The City has an active program to encourage the use of low volume toilets
· Meter calibration program for master meters
. Maintain distribution system
· Water audits are performed to identify system losses
· Adoption of landscape water conservation regulations that provide
landscape and irrigation standards
· Adoption of regulations that require installation of water-saving plumbing
devised
· Adoption of regulations that override green lawn deed restrictions
· Implementation of incentive programs to replace inefficient landscapes,
plumbing devices, and appliances
· Implementation of a program that provides indoor water audits and leak
detection and irrigation system audits
· Promote and encourage the use of low impact development techniques.
18
EW31.1 "lIler supply work plan revised 120108 cl
Water use inside the home can be reduced by the use of low volume fixtures.
The building code requires them on new construction. Older homes can be
encouraged to retrofit their fixtures through incentive programs. Incentive
programs have been used and a 15% reduction in water consumption has been
observed in retrofit units. An active program to encourage the use of low volume
toilets is available in the City of Edgewater.
The City is providing reclaimed water from the Wastewater Treatment Plant to
approximately 3,000 homes. That represents a good start towards the
conservation objective. Historically, Edgewater has reclaimed 90% of plant flow
and stormwater augmented volume. The use of reclaimed water for residential
lawn irrigation has been well accepted by consumers. The Edgewater reclaimed
water program is currently evaluating reclaimed supplements that would allow
the City to further reduce surface water discharge. This subject is addressed in
greater detail in section 3(c). The City implements the following reclaimed water
policies:
. Require installation of reuse supply lines
. Require connection of new development or substantial redevelopment to a
reuse system, to supply uses that do not require potable water
. Use reclaimed water for irrigation and other non-potable needs in public
areas owned by the local government
The City has a meter calibration program for master meters. The City's water
distribution crew is responsible for main repairs. This crew identifies areas
needing rehabilitation and the phased replacement of older systems is an
ongoing effort. Finally, water audits are performed to identify system losses.
The most recent water audit resulted in unexplained losses that were much lower
than those typical of similar sized communities.

I Section III
Water and Reclaimed Water Systems
A. Existing Water System
(1) Water Supply and Production Areas
The City of Edgewater utilizes groundwater from a series of Upper Floridan
Aquifer wells as its source of potable water supply. The wells are all within the
City's service area. Present and projected growth of the area has required the
installation of new wells to meet increased demand.
(2) Existing Wells and Capacities
In 1957 the City's first supply well was constructed adjacent to the former Park
Avenue elevated tank. The groundwater was treated via ion exchange and
distributed to City customers.
Like all of the other east Vol usia utility providers, Edgewater started moving west
in its search for acceptable groundwater sources. During 1982, wells were
installed along Park Avenue west of Air Park Road.
A major shift west occurred during 1986 with the construction of wells #6, #7, #8
and #9 west of Interstate 95. A raw water main was routed to the water plant on
Park Avenue.
During 1991, the water plant was relocated and a new wellfield was developed at
the water plant property. This includes wells #10 - #15. A tabular listing of each
existing and proposed well with its casing size, depth, capacity, and drill date is
included in Table 3-1. Well locations are shown in Figu re 3-1.

(Largest well out of service)
21
EW31.1 wnler supply work plnn revised 120108 eI
All of Volusia County is dependent upon groundwater. The public and private
utilities within Volusia County have approximately 282 active wells that are used
to withdraw potable water supplies. Edgewater represents approximately 3.5%
of the well count and 3.3% of the volume withdrawn.
The City's current firm yield, capacity with the largest well out of service, is 4.1
MGD. Current capacity exceeds average day demand by a factor of 2, allowing
for wells to be rotated with 50% of the wells on at one time, approximately 12
hours/day or less. In order to maintain average well operating times at 12
hours/day, or less, a capacity factor of 2.0 to 2.5 is necessary. Four (4) new
wells #17-20, are proposed in FY '08-'09. Wells #21-24 will be constructed with
Restoration D.R.I in FY 11/12. Upon completion of all wells authorized for
construction under the current C.U.P., the firm capacity will be 7.85 MGD,
sufficient to meet demand throughout the 10 year planning period.
Water quality and well levels within the wellfields have remained consistent over
the past ten years. The City withdraws approximately 50% of its raw water from
each of its wellfields. Judicious management of the resource has enabled the
City to supply its customers with a reliable source of high quality groundwater.
The City will continue to rely upon fresh groundwater from the Floridan Aquifer
for potable demands through the 10-year planning period.
B. Treatment/Distribution/Storage Facilities
(1) Existing Treatment Processes
The Alan R. Thomas Water Treatment Facility has a rated capacity of 5.0 MGD.
The plant is described as an enhanced lime softening facility. Current demand is
less than 50% of plant capacity.
Water enters the treatment process through a tray aeration structure. The raw
water releases hydrogen sulfide during this process stage. After aeration, water
flows by gravity to the reactor basins. Polymer and lime are added to the water.
22
EW31.1 water supply \York plan revised 120108 cI
The lime reacts with dissolved carbonate and hardness is precipitated out of the
treated water. Softened water has a high pH. This parameter is reduced by
recarbonation. Recarbonation is followed by filtration and disinfection. The plant
has produced water of excellent quality. The plant has sufficient reserve capacity
to meet system needs.
Lime sludge is removed from the reactor basin by valves controlled by automatic
timers. This wasting occurs throughout the day in response to the needs of the
softening process. As water production increases so will the volume of waste
lime sludge. The City recently constructed a gravity thickener to concentrate the
waste sludge. The City has established an arrangement with Baker Transport to
haul thickened sludge. Lime sludge is pumped to a truck on an as needed basis.
(2) High Service Pumping and Storage
The primary storage and pumping facilities are located at the Alan R. Thomas
Water Plant. The plant site includes a 1.0 million gallon reservoir and a site
reserved for a future tank of a similar size. The tank is a prestressed composite
design reinforced concrete structure. It includes a domed roof in order to
maintain quality prior to distribution. There is 200,000 gallons of storage in the
clear well at the plant and 150,000 gallons in the Kumquat Tower.
The City retains a storage and booster pump station at the old water plant site on
Park Avenue. That facility has 600,000 gallons of available storage.
Distribution system pressure is provided by three 200 HP split case centrifugal
pumps. At the Park Avenue site there are two 100 HP and two 75 HP booster
pumps.
23
EW31.J water supply work plan revised 120108 el
c. Reclaimed Water Facilities
The City of Edgewater has aggressively pursued a reclaimed water program for
over 10 years. The benefits of the City's program include: 1) reduction of outfall to
the Indian River and 2) reduction of potable water usage for irrigation.
The City's Wastewater Treatment Facility currently operates under the FDEP
Operating Permit No. FL0021431. The City of Edgewater Vl/VVTP has two (2)
separate effluent criteria related to the outfall utilized. The operating permit was
issued in July 2007. The permitted capacity of the plant is 2.75 MGD (AADF). The
surface water outfall has a permitted discharge capacity of 0.83 MGD (AADF).
The reclaimed water system is a complex collection of structures, pumps, pipes,
and valves serving approximately 3,000+/- customers. Typical daily use ranges
between 0.8 and 1.7 million MGD.
The major structural components of the system include three (3) reinforced
concrete ground storage tanks that are available to store reclaimed water and
water that fails to meet the "public access" standard identified in F.A.C. Chapter
62-610. Reject water can be stored in a dedicated 1.0 MG structure and a dual
use 2.25 MG structure. The larger tank can be used for either reject water or
water in compliance with the "public access" standard. This dual use structure
was included in the plant permit. The reclaimed system utilizes a dedicated 2.25
MG structure and the above referenced dual use 2.25 MG tank. Thus during
normal operation, the City can store up to 4.5 MG of treated effluent. The
availability of storage allows the City to bank water on days of lower demand
(rain days) and thus further reduce surface water discharge.
The 21 acre borrow pit adjacent to the WWTP may be used to augment the
supply of reclaimed water, via introduction to the treatment plant for filtration and
disinfection.
24
EW31.1 water supply work phlll revised 120108 el
System pressurization is derived from seven high service pumps. The City has
two (2) 15-hp pumps (275 gpm), three (3) 60-hp pumps (1,000 gpm), and two (2)
100-hp pumps (1,700 gpm). This combination of pumps gives the City a delivery
rate ranging between 0 and 3,600 gpm (5.2 MGD) while maintaining a pressure
level of 70 psi at the plant. At lower pressure (55 psi) an instantaneous flow of
5,000 gpm can be achieved.

Water Use and Capital Needs
A. Historic Water Use
In section I of this report we summarized historical water use in terms of total flow
and per capita usage. In 2006, an approximate population of 23,978 used an
average of 2.2 MGD. The per capita demand over the past 5 years is
approximately 92 GPCD. In 2007 annual average demand decreased to 1.99
MGD.
Table 4-1 summarizes historical potable water demand from 2001-2007. It

The historical flows include pumped and metered flow to Volusia County's
Southeast Service Area. The City has a wholesale service agreement for bulk
sale of water in this area. In 2007 the average daily flow sold was 297,000 GPO.
A tabular listing of projected demands in the S.E. services area is included under
tale #4-3, herein.
The City and County are currently negotiating an amended interlocal agreement
which addresses water, wastewater and reclaimed water service in the S. E.
service area. The concept is for the City to provide retail water and wastewater
service to all customers north of Ariel Rd. Water will be sold to the County, on a
wholesale basis, for all customers south of Ariel Rd. Details regarding the
agreement are still being negotiated. Reclaimed water is addressed in Section
IV E.
The net effect of the agreement will be a reduction of the County service area
and an increase in the City's area. Actual demand will not be affected by the
agreement. Projected demands within the referenced area were included in the
City's current C.U.P. A breakout of estimated demand is included in Table 4-3.
B. Demand Analysis and Projections
(1) Current CUP Status
The primary constraint limiting the City's groundwater withdrawals is defined in
Edgewater's Consumptive Use Permit (CUP) issued by the St. Johns River
Water Management District. The City received its CUP# 9157 issued on
December 11, 2007 and expires on December 11, 2027. Governing Board
approval was received December 12, 2007. It has a 20 year duration.

SJRWMD's population projections, and associated potable water demand
projections, through 2015 reflect an average increase of approximately 2.6% per
year. This is less than historical growth patterns and is suppose to reflect growth
throughout the service area, including wholesale areas and the area
encompassing Restoration D.R.1. It is unknown what percentage of the total
growth is assigned to each. The SJRWMD projections underestimate future
demand in Restoration.
The proposed Restoration D.R.1. is illustrated on Figure #1-1; it occupies the
majority of all land in the City's service area west of 1-95 and north of SR #442. A
separate discussion of the area, and its potential impact upon the City's water
supply strategies, is included in the work plan.
(2) Restoration D.R.I.
Restoration DR.1. is a major development proposed for construction west of 1-95
and north of SR # 442. The development encompasses 5,181 acres and may
ultimately contain up to 8,500 dwelling units and approximately 3.2 million square
feet of retail and commercial office space. The D.R.1. application is currently
being evaluated by the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) and Volusia
County Growth Management Commission (VGMC).
The City of Edgewater will provide water and wastewater service to the proposed
development. Reclaimed water will be provided on a wholesale basis and the
restoration Homeowner's Association (HOA) will manage public access reuse
distribution within the D.R.1.
The City's water plant capacity is 5 MGD and current firm production capacity is
4.1 MGD. Firm production capacity will be 5.54 MGD by 2010 after construction
of 4 new wells. The developer has identified a 7 year build-out period for Phase I
(2007-2013); however, the D.R.1. is still under review and initial customer
31
EW31.1 water supply work plan revised 120108 el
demand is not anticipated until 2010. Therefore, build-out of Phase I is not
expected until the end of 2016, or beginning of 2017. This timeline corresponds
to the 10 year planning period of the work plan. A table detailing projected
potable demand through 2017 has been prepared. It identifies current and
projected potable demands including those associated with both Restoration and
Volusia County's S.E. service area. Table #4-3, below, includes build-out of
Restoration, Phase I, at 3,692 equivalent dwelling units. Per capita demand is 92
GPCD and occupancy is 2.27persons per dwelling unit. This corresponds with
historical demand of 204 GPDID.U. as set forth previously.

EW31.1 water supply work pIau revised 120108 el
c. Source Needs Assessment
Currently, SJRWMD has not established groundwater deficits for Edgewater
associated with future aquifer withdrawals proposed. Implementation of proposed
MFL rules has the potential to change regional deficit projections; however, the
City was issued a 20 year CUP in December 2007.
SJRWMD has the legislative authority to limit Consumptive Use Permit
allocations for individual permit holders based upon cumulative groundwater
withdrawals, and their potential effect upon wetlands and surface waters.
Therefore, future regional groundwater deficits may be assigned and usage
restricted. In the event that this occurs, Edgewater should be prepared to meet
future demands utilizing traditional and alternative sources as detailed below.
a) Groundwater
The City's primary water source through the 10 year planning period is ground
water. At the time of this writing, the City of Edgewater has existing firm raw
water supply capacity to meet peak day flows of 4.1 MGD. Assuming an
availability factor of 2.0, Edgewater has an immediate need for additional wells.
The City wholly owns property near both the Western and A.R. Thomas
wellfields.
The current CUP application includes approval for eight new wells. Four (4)
wells, #17-20, are proposed for construction in FY '08-'09. Design and permitting
for these wells is nearly complete. Funds for construction are included in the
current C.I.P. The estimated cost for the project is $1.2 million.
The estimated withdrawal capacity of wells #17-20 is 250 GPM, total capacity is
approximately 1,000 GPM (1.44 MGD). Upon completion of this project, total raw
33
EW31 I water supply work plan revised 120108 el
water supply capacity will be 5.54 MGD; the proposed wells will provide sufficient
raw water supply and rotational capacity through 2012.
An additional four wells, #21-24, are proposed for construction within the
proposed Restoration D.R.1. The development may contain up to 8,500 E.R.U.'s
and occupies approximately 5,200 acres. The developer will dedicate four (4)
well sites, each with an estimated capacity of 300-400 GPM. A total withdrawal
capacity of 1,400-1,600 GPM (2 MGD - 2.3 MGD) is proposed from the 4 sites.
Construction of the new wells is scheduled in FY 11/12 and is included in the 5-
year C.I.P.
Upon completion of the new wells, firm supply capacity will be 7.85 MGD. This is
adequate to supply projected average and real demand through 2017.
Fresh groundwater will continue to be the dominant raw water source for
Edgewater's potable supply through 2017. If MFL limitations create deficit
conditions, the City intends to pursue brackish groundwater as an alternative
supply.
b) Conservation, Reclaimed, and Demand Reduction Strategies
Existing WA V and member utility conservation programs, such as low-flow
showerheads and toilets, rain sensors for lawn irrigation, and education
programs, will stay in effect. The use of reclaimed water to supplement and/or
replace fresh water used for irrigation purposes has been aggressively pursued
by the City of Edgewater. These programs are have helped reduce demand
increases and allowed the utility to maintain extremely law per capita
consumptive rates. The City continues to expand its reuse program; details
regarding reclaimed reuse are addressed in section 3(e).
34
EW3 \.1 water supply work plan revised 120108 eI
D. Facility Work Plan Capital Needs
1. Rehabilitation and Replacement
With the 5 MGD Water Treatment Plant, the City of Edgewater will not need
significant capital expansion improvements in the next 10 years. Anticipated
work at the treatment plant is limited to rehabilitation and replacement (R&R) of
existing process equipment, pumps, electrical components and media. The City
has budgeted approximately $800,000 in FY08/09 C.I.P. to construct necessary
R&R work and process upgrades at the WTP.
2. Raw Water Supply
The City's current C.UP. application, currently under review, includes a total of
eight (8) new wells. The wells will increase production capacity to 7.8 MGD.
Four (4) of the 8 wells, #17-20, are included in the C.I.P. for construction in FY
2008/2009. The estimated construction cost is $1.2 million. The additional 4
wells, #21-24, are sited in restoration D.R.1. Construction of these wells will
occur after FY 12/13, unless needed sooner. Raw water transmission and
finished water distribution needed to serve the D.R.1. will be constructed by the
developer.
A list of raw water supply projects to be funded and constructed by the City has
been prepared and is described below:
a) Wells #17 -20
Four (4) new 12: water supply wells, access roadways, electrical
service and raw water transmission in the A.R. Thomas Wellfield.
Estimated cost = $1.2 million
35
EW31.1 water supply work plan revised 120108 cI
b) Wells #21-24
Four (4) new 12" diameter water supply wells, raw water piping,
electric service, telemetry and instrumentation. Well sites and paved
access to each provided by developer of restoration D.R.1.
Estimated cost = $1.0 million
3. Potable Water Storage, Pumping and Distribution
The majority of potable water distribution components needed to serve future
customers will be provided and installed by developers. Exceptions relate to
remote storage. and pumping. In many cases, remote storage and pumping is
required to satisfy peak demand and fire flow requirements. Remote storage and
pumping also provides for redundancy in the event of service interruptions at the
WTP or water main beaks in the distribution system. Two remote storage tank
and pump stations projects are proposed.
a) S.E. Service Area Stora~e Tank and Pump Station
A 1.0 MG storage tank and pump station is proposed for construction
to serve new development along the US-1 corridor in the S.E. service
area.
Estimated Cost = $2.0 million
b) Western Stora~e Tank and Pump Station
A 1.0 MG storage tank and pump station is proposed for construction
to serve the new D.R.1.
Estimated Cost = $2.0 Million
36
EW31.1 water supply work plan revised 1'20108 cl
E. Reclaimed Water System
There are three (3)' elements of potential customer growth for the reclaimed
water system. They include infill of served subdivisions, future subdivisions, and
future retrofits of older areas of the City. The City has the potential to use all of
its available supply serving reclaimed water to irrigation customers, in existing
served subdivisions and new developments. No retrofit programs are necessary.
The City currently utilizes >90% of its available effluent. Augmentation is
required during peak demand periods. The area served by existing reuse
distribution system supplemented by the demand from the future developer-
installed systems, will fully utilize annual average daily flow. The City does not
need to incur the expense of retrofits to achieve its goals regarding surf~ce water
discharge.
Future expansion of the reclaimed water system is limited to the following areas:
1) Developer Installed Irrigation Systems
2) Volusia County S. E. Service Area
3) Restoration D.R.1.
A tabular listing of existing and proposed reclaimed water sources and demands
has been prepared, and is included below as Table #4-4:

Reclaimed water service to restoration D.R.1. will be on a wholesale basis. The
City and developer will participate in construction of transmission facilities from
the WWTP to the site. The developer and H.O.A. will own and maintain on-site
reuse storage, pumping and distribution facilities. On-site facilities will include
ponds, pumps and distribution piping. Integrated stormwater/reclaimed water
ponds will be used by the developer to satisfy non-potable demands.
Additional wastewater treatment I reclaimed water production capacity required
to serve restoration will be sited at the existing WWTP or at a remote facility
constructed within the DR.1. Both options are currently being evaluated.
Sufficient treatment and reclaimed water capacity is available through 2016.
Capital projects necessary to serve restoration and the S.E. service area include
wastewater treatment capacity and reclaimed water storage, pumping and
transmission facilities. The three (3) projects are identified as follows:
1) Water Reclamation Facility Expansion/Addition
Construction of a 2.5 MGD waste water plant expansion or new
facilities within restoration.
Estimated Construction Cost = $15 Million
2) Western Reclaimed Water Transmission
25,000 LF, 18" diameter reclaimed water transmission main from the
WWTP to restoration is required to convey reuse to the site and/or
effluent from the D.R.1.
Estimated Construction Cost = $3.5 million
3) Volusia County S.E. Service Area Interconnect
Reclaimed water transmission mains, storage and pumping facilities
are necessary to provide effluent disposal capacity from the County's
waste water plant and irrigation supply to new developments.
Estimated Construction Cost = $5million

V. Funding Sources and Project List
A. Funding
The City of Edgewater can utilize several revenue sources to meet system
maintenance and upgrade requirements. The revenue sources include the
following:
1. Retail user charges
2. Wholesale user charges
3. Service charges
4. Interest income
s. Hydrant rental
6. Reclaimed water user charge
7. Connection fees
8. Development fees
9. Low interest loans
10. Grants
Revenue sources for items 1-6 have been tracked over a long period and can be
reliably projected through the next three (5) fiscal years. The retail user charge is
the primary revenue source that must be adjusted to meet the revenue required
by the utility.
The City's Water and Sewer Operating Budget for FY'07 -'08 is approximately
$9.8 million. The FY '07-'08 budget includes CIP funds for design and permitting
the four (4) new wells in the A. R. Thomas wellfield.

reuse capacity of the system is 3.36 MGD (aadf), the permitted reuse capacity
is limited to 2.75 MGD, which is also the permitted wastewater treatment
capacity.
The current average daily flow of reclaimed water from the wastewater
treatment plant into the reclaimed water distribution system is 1.18 MGD.
There are currently 2,030 reclaimed water connections, and the current
average daily demand for reclaimed water is approximately 600 gallons per
day per connection. At present, reclaimed water is available for residential
lot irrigation only in the Florida Shores subdivision. During periods of peak
demand, in order to keep demand from exceeding supply, reclaimed water is
pumped into the system only between the hours of 5:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and
5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. (Hours of availability are adjusted appropriately during
Daylight Savings Time).
E. EXISTING LEVEL OF SERVICE
The City of Edgewater's wastewater treatment plant provides service to a total of
approximately 7,950 connections to the wastewater system. Residential service is
provided to a population of approximately 19,000 by nearly 7,600 of these connections,
and the remaining 350 connections provide service to a combination of commercial,
professional and light industrial facilities. The average daily flow to the wastewater
treatment plant is 1.81 MGD.
The City has used this data to establish a level of service standard on a per capita basis.
This level of service standard is based on the average daily flow of 1.81 MGD divided
by the number of residential customers served by the system. This allows the City to
easily identify the additional wastewater system demand due to proposed new
residential development. Additional wastewater system demand due to proposed non-
residential development is calculated on a case-by-case basis, using plumbing code
fixture counts.
Based on these figures, the level of service standard established by the City of
Edgewater for the wastewater treatment system is 95 gallons per capita 204 gallons per
equivalent residential unit (ERU) per day.
F. FUTURE NEEDS
This section examines the need for any expansion or improvement to the wastewater
system due to projected development within the City of Edgewater's service area.
Generally, the City's wastewater treatment system is in very good condition, and is
operated properly and efficiently in accordance with applicable rules and regulations.
7
CITY OF EDGEW A TER
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
UTILITIES ELEMENT
There are no known significant system deficiencies, nor are there any current or
pending regulatory enforcement actions against the City.
1. Wastewater Collection System
As part of the development approval process in Edgewater, each new
development is required to construct any new wastewater collection system
facilities that are needed in order to service the proposed development. Prior to
approving construction of new collection system facilities, the City reviews
proposed plans to ensure that the proposed new facilities will promote an
efficient expansion of the existing system.
The City will continue to try to develop a cost-effective expansion of the
wastewater collection system into those few existing areas still relying on septic
tank systems.
2. Wastewater Treatment Plant
The population served by Edgewater's wastewater treatment plant is projected
to increase from the current 19,000 to approximately 34,500 during the planning
period. This increase in population will require an additional 1.47 MGD of
wastewater treatment capacity at a level of service of 95 gaIlono per capita per
day (gpcd) 204 gallons per ERU per day. At the projected population served of
approximately 34,500 the total flow through the City's plant will be
approximately 3.28 MGD, or 0.53 MGD above the currently permitted treatment
capacity.
Under an interlocal agreement executed by Edgewater and Volusia County in
1999, Edgewater will transfer a minimum of 0.14 MGD of the flow currently
being treated at Edgewater's plant to a new Volusia County plant located just
south of the City limit. This transfer will take place when the new county plant
begins operation in early 2001. The transferred flow will be primarily from
existing developments in the southern part of the City's service area. The
infrastructure required to accomplish this transfer is being built by the county as
part of the plant construction project.
Under the terms of the interlocal agreement, Volusia County has committed to
provide Edgewater with up to 0.20 MGD of the county plant's wastewater
treatment capacity. The current excess treatment capacity at Edgewater's plant
was identified in D3 above as 0.94 MGD. The transfer of up to 0.20 MGD of flow
from the Edgewater plant to the Volusia County plant will increase Edgewater's
excess treatment capacity from 0.94 MGD to 1.14 MGD. The agreement
recognizes Edgewater's potential need for additional future capacity beyond the
8
CITY OF EDGEW A TER
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
UTILITIES ELEMENT
initial 0.20 MGD, and includes a mechanism for the allocation of additional
capacity.
During the first five years of the planning period, the population served in
Edgewater is projected to increase to approximately 22,900. This increase will
consume 0.38 MGD of the available 1.14 MGD of excess treatment capacity. This
will leave approximately 0.76 MGD of treatment capacity for growth occurring
during the last fifteen years of the planning period.
An available treatment capacity of 0.76 MGD will serve an additional population
of approximately 8,000 at a level of service of 95 gpcd 204 gallons per ERU per
day. This equates to a total population served at that point, of approximately
31,000. At the projected rate of population growth indicated in Table 1,
Edgewater's population served will reach 31,000 sometime between 2015 and
2020.
As the City approaches the limit of its wastewater treatment capacity over the
next fifteen years, it will need to either expand the treatment capacity of the
City's plant, or transfer additional flow to the county plant.
3. Sludge Disposal
Based on the current sludge production rate, it is anticipated that Edgewater's
wastewater treatment plant will produce approximately 276,000 gallons of
sludge per month on an annual average basis.
The City anticipates that the current sludge disposal contract with a private firm
will be continued. This will enable the City to continue to dispose of generated
sludge in an effective, efficient manner. If the current contractual arrangement
ends, there are other firms engaged in the same business that the City could
contract with, or the City could investigate the feasibility of disposing of sludge
in an appropriately permitted landfill.
4. Reclaimed Water System
The City is currently developing plans to increase reclaimed water storage from
the current 1.0 MG to 4.5 MG in order to further reduce discharge of reclaimed
water to the Indian River North.
The reclaimed water system permit allows for an increase from the current 1.18
MGD average daily flow to 2.75 MGD. At the current flow rate per connection,
this increase would support an additional 2,700 reclaimed water system
connections.

Of the remaining 1.38 MGD, approximately 1.25 MGD was used for residential service, and
the balance of 0.13 MGD was used for various commercial and light industrial services.
Table 3 provides a summary of current water demand. Based on the current average demand
of 1.86 MGD, the City's water treatment plant has an excess capacity of 3.14 MGD.
F. EXISTING LEVEL OF SERVICE
In determining a level of service of Edgewater's water system. The City's current provision of
reclaimed water to only a portion of its total customer base was taken into account. Flow records
for both the water system and the reclaimed water system were analyzed to determine what
affect the availability of reclaimed water had on total consumption patterns.
In areas where reclaimed water is available, average total per capita consumption of water, both
potable and reclaimed, was determined to be approximately 310 gallons per day (gdp). The
potable water system supplied approximately 50 gpd ofthis amount, and the reclaimed water
system supplied the remaining 260 gpd. The 260 gpd of reclaimed water demand is almost
exclusively for landscape irrigation, as there are no provisions in Edgewater for the use of
reclaimed water for fire fighting, toilet flushing, or similar uses.
Currently, the City does not meter reclaimed water at each service point, so there is little
incentive for reclaimed water consumers to limit their consumption. This is the primary reason
that reclaimed flow to residential services is so high. As long as the total demand does not
exceed supply, this is not a problem. As demand grows through the addition of new
development that is plumbed for reclaimed water, the City will need to increase its supply.
In those areas where reclaimed water is not currently available, average per capita consumption
was determined to be approximately 80 gpd. This correlates well with the potable demand of 50
gpd where reclaimed water is available, since in the areas where reclaimed water is not available,
potable water is the sole source for consumption, washing and irrigation.
The City of Edgewater must adopt a potable water system level of service that will ensure
adequate water supply for current customers as well as for future new development, without
relying on nOI!-potable sources. Although non-potable sources are currently used to augment
potable water supply in meeting total water demand, and the City intends to maximize this non-
potable augmentation, it must be acknowledged that future regulatory requirements related to
non-potable sources may reduce the City's ability to rely on non-potable sources.
Based on the above information, the City of Edgewater has confirmed that its current potable
water system level of service of 100 gallons of potable water per person per day 204 gallons per
ERU per day is adequate to serve current and projected potable water demands.

CITY OF EDGEWATER
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
G. FUTURE NEEDS
UTILITIES ELEMENT
1. Future Demand
The potential growth within the City during the planning period is projected to increase the
City's population from the current 18,900 to approximately 34,500. This population increase
of 15,600, at a potable water system level of service of 100 gallons per capita per day (gpcd)
204 gallons per equivalent residential unit (ERU) per day, equates to an additional demand of
approximately 1.56 MOD.
In addition, in the area of V olusia County identified by V olusia County and Edgewater as
planned to be served by Edgewater's water system, a population increase of approximately
22,000 is projected during the planning period. At a water system level of service of +00
gpee 204 gallons per ERU per dav, this equates to an additional demand of approximately
2.2 MOD.
The total projected population increase within the City's service area during the planning
period is thus 37,600, which equates to a total increase in potable water demand of3.76
MOD. That increase in demand, added to the current demand of 1.86 MOD will equal a total
demand on Edgewater's water system of approximately 5.62 MOD. The projected future
demand exceeds Edgewater's current water treatment plant capacity of 5.0 MOD by 0.62
MOO, or 12%.
At the projected rate of population growth, the current 5.0 MOD treatment capacity of
Edgewater's facilities would not be exceeded until sometime between 2015 and 2020. In the
fifteen year period between the date of this report and 20 IS, the City of Edgewater and
Volusia County will monitor growth patterns to determine whether they are following
projections in this report. If they are, no additional water system supply or treatment
improvements are anticipated until at least 2015. Ifnot, the City of Edgewater and Volusia
County will identify the most efficient method of improving supply and treatment levels to
meet demand, and will have adequate time to plan and implement those changes.
The City will continue to encourage water conservation, and will expand its reclaimed water
system into new areas as development occurs and the reclaimed water supply allows. The
County will make reclaimed water from its new wastewater treatment plant available to some
of the county planned to be served by Edgewater's water system. With efforts such as these,
it is possible that the total demand for potable water within Edgewater's service area may be
kept within the current supply and treatment capacity of the City's facilities.
Table -1 pro';ides aAsummary of the projected service area water demand and population
projections is contained in the City's Water Supply Facilities Work Plan.
2. Needed Water Supply Improvements
The projected year 2020 average daily demand is 5.62 MOD. The combine theoretical
production capacity of all ten of the existing wells is 5.76 MOD. However, simultaneous full
withdrawal from all ten wells is not feasible due to water quality and system hydraulics
IV-9
CITY OF EDGEWATER
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
UTILITIES ELEMENT
restrictions. The St. Johns River Water Management District has conducted water modeling
studies that indicate that with the addition of two more wells, Edgewater's water supply
system could support a total yield of approximately 4.1 MOD. This means that even with the
addition of two new wells, Edgewater's ability to supply projected water demand will be
exceeded sometime between 2010 and 2015.
In recognition of this impending shortfall, the City has begun searching for additional
wellfield sites, and will conduct studies to determine the location, withdrawal characteristics
and number of new wells required to meet projected demand requirements.
The City will continue to monitor water quality as required, and will closely monitor
development activity to ensure that surface activity is not allowed which might adversely
affect the underground water supply. The wells will be routinely monitored for pump
efficiency, and repairs will be made as required to keep all pumps and related equipment in
peak operational condition.
3. Needed Water Treatment Improvements
As noted above, the projected future water demand will exceed the current treatment capacity
of Edgewater's plant sometime between 2015 and 2020 by a fairly small amount. During the
planning period, the City and County will closely monitor actual demand to determine
whether the demand is increasing as projected in this report. If actual demand trends indicate
the probable need for additional treatment capacity, there will be adequate time for the City
and County to jointly determine the most cost effective means of addressing the shortfall.
4. Needed Water Storage and High Service Pumping Improvements
Water storage capacity should equal at least half the average daily demand. The combined
capacity of Edgewater's four water storage tanks is 1.85 million gallons, which exceeds the
current average daily demand of 1.62 MOD, and is 33% of the 2020 projected average daily
demand of 3.7 MOD. At the projected population growth, and using a level of service
standard of 100 gpcd 204 gallons per ERU per day, the demand on the Edgewater system
will reach 3.7 MOD sometime between 2005 and 20 I O. At this point, additional storage
capacity will be needed. By 2005, the City will determine the most efficient and effective
location for additional storage facilities, and will take the necessary steps to increase storage
capacity from 1.85 MO to 2.8 MO to serve the projected average daily demand of 5.62
MOD.
To meet increased demand, high service pumping capacity will be increased by one or more
of several means. First, existing high service pumps can be replaced with higher capacity
units. Second, additional high service pumps can be installed in existing plant facilities, and
third, as new wellfields are developed, associated high service pumping facilities will be
designed and constructed. The order in which these incremental changes are made will
depend on the rate of growth and on the location of high-growth areas with respect to the
existing water supply system.
The demand for reclaimed water is also expected to increase, and the City has received a
permit from the St. Johns River Water Management District allowing augmentation of the

County, including special needs of the elderly, the handicapped, and hospitalized, and other
special needs of existing and anticipated populations. It also provides plans and procedures
for Volusia County to follow in an effort to mitigate damage and recovery, post-disaster.
These include (1) damage assessment and reporting procedures; (2) the provision of
emergency housing; (3) federal public assistance procedures; (4) roadway operation and
emergency transportation; (5) emergency fire and police protection; and (6) hazard
mitigation.
It should be recognized that the SPLASH-II model has certain critical limitations; the most
notable limitation is that it cannot measure damage resulting from freshwater flooding. In
addition, the SPLASH-II model only produces values for the anticipated peak storm surge
along the open coast, not along inland waterways and tidal basins, meaning it underestimates
the total damage that might result from a hurricane as it approaches the coast. What the
model does, however, is suggest the extent of the damage that might be expected to occur as
a result of the storm surge and the force of winds accompanying the landfall of a certain size
hurricane at a specified location.
The SPLASH-II model creates a surge proftle of the various storms utilized in the modeling
effort. The surge proftle can be used to determine the anticipated increase in water elevation
that may occur in each of the different categories of storm modeled. Its application in the
Coastal Planning Area, with the modifications described above, indicate that the mean
elevations of water can be anticipated to range from 3 to 15+ feet above mean sea level.
Category 1 and 2 storms would result in an increase of 3 to 8 feet along the coastline, with
