The City was awarded two (2) grants for the Bennett Swamp Aquifer Recharge project. One grant was from the St. John’s River Water Management District (SJRWMD) valued at $1.7 million and the second grant was from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) valued at $2.5 million. The FDEP grant requires that the City develop a Quality Assurance Performance Plan (QAPP). This QAPP was designed to compare the stated outcome in the grant to the actual tested outcomes. To fully comply with the QAPP the City is obligated to purchase and install equipment to perform the required testing, analyze data and submit the reports to FDEP relative to the data collected. The SJRWMD Cost Share Grant will reimburse 33% of the labor and equipment cost. The FDEP grant will reimburse 50% of the total cost of the labor, equipment and laboratory testing. Funds available in the Renewal & Replacement 8% Fund ($98,779.68) and the Water & Sewer Improvement Construction Fund ( $176,135.73).
