Summary:
The purpose of this contract is to construct two (2) water quality treatment ponds. The wet pond includes water diverted from McKay Creek to a wet detention pond for water quality treatment. A steel sheet piling structure (weir) will be installed upstream of the existing limestone outcropping to raise the water elevation in McKay Creek during storm events so that stormwater can be diverted to the wet pond for water quality treatment. The dry pond components consist of a dry retention pond with a stormwater treatment device to separate sediment and nutrients from stormwater runoff prior to entering the dry retention pond. Both ponds discharge back into McKay Creek.
Background Information:
The County has identified water quality concerns in the area of the McKay Creek watershed. The McKay Creek watershed encompasses 8.65 square miles (5,536 acres) in west-central County. McKay Creek is associated with the water body identification number (WBID) 1633 (tidal segment of the Creek) and WBID 16338 (freshwater segment), is deemed impaired by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, and is on the Environmental Protection Agency's list for dissolved oxygen, fecal coliform, and nutrients. Thus, water quality improvements in the McKay Creek watershed are highly desired by the County.
