CONSIDERATIONS:
In 2005, the Florida Legislature made significant changes to Chapters 163 and 373, F.S., to
strengthen the link between land use and water supply planning. These changes were included in
Senate Bi11360 (Chapter 2005-290, Laws of Florida) and Senate Bi11444 (Chapter 2005-291, Laws
of Florida).
The legislative changes encourage cooperation in the development of alternative water supplies and
reemphasize the need for conservation and reuse. Additional changes include a time line for
preparing local supply facilities work plans for building public, private, and regional water supply
facilities, including the development of alternative water supplies, and new provisions to be
addressed in local comprehensive plans. Funding was also appropriated to assist local governments
with the construction of alternative water supply projects.
The St. Johns River Water Management District approved its regional water supply plan on February
7,2006. The City of Winter Springs is required to prepare a 10-Year Water Supply Facilities Work
Plan and adopt revisions to the Comprehensive Plan that address the water supply requirements
within 18 months (by August 7, 2007). The required comprehensive plan amendments are exempt
from the twice-a-year limitation on major amendments to the comprehensive plan [Section
163.3177(6)(c), F.S.]
Water supply requirements relate to:
1- Water Supply Concurrency (New large scale comprehensive plan amendments must address
the water supply concurrency requirement. Data and analysis must demonstrate that water
supplies are sufficient to meet projected growth demands and are to be included with all new
proposed amendments submitted to DCA for review.);
2- Intergovernmental Coordination with the SJRWMD;
3- Ensuring that Winter Springs' Future Land Use Element and Future Land Use Map are based
upon the availability of adequate water supplies (Data and analysis must demonstrate that
water supplies are sufficient to meet projected growth demands); and
4- Inclusion of Selected Alternative Water Supply Projects in the Winter Springs
Comprehensive Plan.
The City's Comprehensive Plan update must include the identification of alternative and traditional
water supply projects, conservation, and reuse necessary to meet water needs and include a 10-year
(minimum) Work Plan for building the necessary public, private, and regional water supply facilities
to meet those water needs.
July 23, 2007
Public Hearing Item 501
Page 3 of6
In addition, the upcoming Winter Springs' 2008 Evaluation and Appraisal Report will be required to
address the extent to which Winter Springs has implemented the Supply Plan for building public,
private and regional water supply facilities, including the development of alternative water supplies.
The report must also include a determination as to whether the identified alternative water supply
proj ects, traditional water supply proj ects, and the conservation and reuse programs have met local
water use needs.
The City recently completed its required Work Plan based on an analysis of the City's water supply
facilities and projected supply and demand for potable water. The analysis extends beyond the 10-
year required planning period to the year 2025 and coordinates with the St. Johns River Water
Management District (SJRWMD) Regional Water Supply Plan.
The document entitled, Water Supply Plan, 2007 (Supply Plan) demonstrates that the current and
planned water supply facilities and source(s) of water will meet the projected demand through the
18-year planning period. Winter Springs is proposing to continue the progressive plan that it has
been implementing since its purchase of private utilities in 1984, 1990, and 2004. The plan is based
on sound solutions, both economically and environmentally.
The main components of the Supply Plan revolve around the following:
1. Development of and optimization of groundwater supplies
2. Expansion of reclaimed water systems
3. Water conservation program including conservation rate structure
4. Development of alternative water sources

On a priority basis, Winter Springs will continue to invest and expand its residential reclaimed water
retrofit program and conservation programs and begin construction in 2008 ofthe alternative water
supply project. Projections for the use of reclaimed water indicates that public reception is above
average and that it is a viable source of irrigation water to the City.

The Supply Plan will be reviewed on an annual basis and updated as needed to coincide with the
future updates of the SJR WMD' s Regional Water Supply Plan. This amendment incorporates data
from the Supply Plan into the City's Comprehensive Plan.
Table 2 identifies potable water demands projections. The SJRWMD permitted allocation is
compared with the current demand to determine the groundwater surplus or deficit in the service
area. Projections are based with the groundwater level supply provided in 2013 frozen through 2025.
No additional sources would be required through 2025 based on these projections.

The Honorable John F. Bush, Mayor
City of Winter Springs
1126 East State Road 434
. Winter Springs, Florida 32708
Dear Mayor Bush:
The Department of Community Affairs has completed its review of the proposed
Comprehensive Plan Amendment for Winter Springs (DCA No. 07-RWSP1), which was
received on May 1,2007. Based on Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, we have prepared the attached
report outlining our findings concerning the amendment. It is particularly important that the City
address the objections set forth in our report so that these issues can be resolved prior to
adoption. We have also included a copy of the regional and state agency comments for your
consideration. Within the next 60 days, the City should act by choosing to adopt, adopt with
changes, or not adopt the proposed amendment. For your assistance, our report outlines
procedures for final adoption and transmittal.
The proposed Amendment 07-RWSPl contains the City of Winter Springs's lO-year
Water Supply Facilities Work Plan and the corresponding amendments to the Future Land Use
Element, Infrastructure Element, Conservation Element, Capital Improvements Element, and
Intergovernmental Coordination Element. In order to assist the City as it moves toward adoption
of these amendments, the Department is providing some comments.
The Department's comments relate to suggested revisions to the water supply facilities
work plan. These revisions could provide greater clarity to the work plan, result in a better
planning tool and make the work plan more accessible to citizens.

OBJECTIONS, RECOMMENDATIONS AND COMMENTS REPORT
FOR
WINTER SPRINGS
AMENDMENT 07 - RWSPl
June 29, 2007
Division of Community Planning
Office of Comprehensive Planning
This report is prepared pursuant to Rule 9J-l1.01O, F.A.C.
INTRODUCTION
The following objections, recommendations and comments are based upon the
Department's review of Winter Springs's proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment (DCA 07-
1) pursuant to Section 163.3184, Florida Statutes (F.S.).
Objections relate to specific requirements of relevant portions of Chapter 91-5, Florida
Administrative Code (F.A.C.), and Chapter 163, Part II, F.S. Each objection includes a
recommendation of one approach that might be taken to address the cited objection. Other
approaches may be more suitable in specific situations. Some of these objections may have been
raised initially by one of the other external review agencies. If there is a difference between the
Department's objection and an external agency's advisory objection or comment, the
Department's objection will take precedence.
The City should address each of these, objections when the amendment is resubmitted
for our compliance review. Objections which are not addressed may result in a determination
that the amendment is "not in compliance." The Department may have raised an objection
regarding missing data and analysis, or other items which the City might consider not to be
applicable to its amendment. If that is the case, a statement justifying its non-applicability
pursuant to Rule 91-5.002(2), F.A.C., must be submitted. The Department will make a
determination as to the non-applicability of the requirement. If the justification is sufficient, the
objection will be considered to have been addressed.
The comments which follow the objections and recommendations are advisory in
nature. Comments will not form a basis for determination of non-compliance. They are included
to call attention to items raised by our reviewers. The comments can be substantive, concerning
planning principles, methodology or logic, as well as editorial in nature dealing with grammar,
organization, mapping and reader comprehension.
Appended to the back of the Department's report are the comment letters from the other
state review agencies. These comments are advisory to the Department and may not form a basis
for Departmental objections unless they appear under the "Objections" heading in this report.

PROPOSED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT
I. CONSISTENCY WITH CHAPTER 163, PART II, Florida Statutes, (F.S.), and
RULE 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code, (F.A.C.)
The Department has completed its review of the proposed amendment to Winter
Springs's Comprehensive Plan (DCA No. 07-RWSPl). The proposed Amendment 07 RWSPl
contains policies for the City of Winter Springs's lO-year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan and
the corresponding amendments to the Future Land Use Element, Infrastructure Element,
Conservation Element, Capital Improvements Element, and Intergovernmental Coordination
Element.
The Department has the following comments:
1. Exclusive Authority of the Water Management District to Regulate the Consumptive Use
of Water: It is noted that the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) considers
the revisions to Infrastructure Element Policy IV-A-5.2 and Potable Water Sub-Element Policies
IV -B-7.3 and IV-B-6.6, which prohibit the use of potable water for purposes of irrigation, to be
in conflict with the exclusive authority of the water management district to regulate the
consumptive use of water.
2. Water Supply Facilities Work Plan. The City may want to consider identifying the work
plan, which is provided in IV -27 of the Potable Water Sub-Element, as an exhibit or as a separate
attachment to the sub-element. This would distinguish it from the data and analysis and result in
an identifiable water supply facilities work plan that would be more accessible to citizens.
3. Projected Water Demand. The City's work plan is based upon a projected water demands
that are consistent with the projected demands as reported in the City's Consumptive Use Permit
(CUP). These projections are under review by the St. Johns River Water Management District. If
the CUP review results in any changes to the City's projections, the table should be revised
accordingly. This possibility has been discussed with the City. The City has agreed that it would
make the necessary revisions, if indicated, to the projected water demands.
4. Additional Alternative Water Supply Projects. The City's alternative water supply project
(Lake Jessup) has been selected and is currently under review. The City has agreed that if other
alternative water supply projects are recommended for implementation through the SJRWMD's
review process, and agreed to by the City, the City will identify them in the water supply
facilities work plan and include them in the Capital Improvements Schedule as appropriate.
5
5. Reuse and Conservation Practices. Several of the amendments to the Potable Water Sub-
Element relate to water reuse requirements and water conservation practices. These policies (as
well as polices that provide enabling language for future implementation) should be referenced
in the water supply facilities work plan along with discussion clarifying the continued use of
these requirements and practices.
6. Source Protection. The amendment to Future Land Use Element Policy 1.2.5 provides for a
5oo-foot protection zone around each wellhead. All of the City's wellhead protection policies
and other water supply source protection policies should be referenced in the water supply
facilities work plan along with the identification of potential sources of contamination for
existing wells.
7. Projected Water Demand. The proposed amendment to Potable Water Sub-Element Policy
IV -8-7 and Capital Improvements Policy 1.2.1 establish the level of service (LOS) for potable
water supply at 115 gallons per capita per day. However, the data and analysis in Tables IV -B-7,
-9, and -10 indicate a demand of 125 to 138 gallons per day. It is commendable that the City is
seeking to establish a reduced level of service. However, this reduction should be accounted for
in the City's conservation and reuse plans. The water supply facilities work plan should reflect
the measures that will be required to achieve the established LOS of 115 gallons per capita per
day.
6
TRANSMITTAL PROCEDURES
The process for adoption of local government comprehensive plan amendments is
outlined in s. 163.3184, F. S., and Rule 9J-11.011, F.A.C.
Within ten working days of the date of adoption, Winter Springs must submit the

Re: Historic Preservation Review of the Winter Springs (07WSA-1) Comprehensive Plan
Amendment
Dear Mr. Eubanks:
According to this agency's responsibilities under Sections 163.3177 and 163.3178, Florida
Stallltes, and Chapter 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code, we reviewed the above document to
detennine if data regarding historic resources have been given sufficient consideration in the
request to amend the Winter Springs Comprehensive Plan.
We reviewed a proposed text amendment to the Winter Springs Comprehensive Plan regarding
the Water Supply Plan 2007 and Work Plan, to consider the potential effects of this action on
historic resources. While our cursory review suggests that the proposed changes may have no
adverse effects on historic resources, it is the city's responsibility to ensure that the proposed
revisions will not have an adverse effect on significant archaeological or historic resources in the
City of Winter Springs.
If you have any questions regarding our comments, please feel free to contact Susan M. Harp of
the Division's Compliance Review staffat (850) 245-6333.

RE: Winter Springs 07WSP-l Comprehensive Plan Amendment ORC
Review
pear Mr. Eubanks:
The Office of Intergovernmental Programs of the Florida Department of Environmental
Protection (FDEP) has reviewed the above-referenced amendment proposal under the
procedures of Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, and Chapters 9J-5 and 9J-11, Florida
Administrative Code. The Department provides the following comments and
recommendations to assist your agency in developing the state's response to the
proposed amendment.
The amendment package consists of the 10-Year Water Supply Facility Work Plan
(W ork Plan) and related text amendments to the Infrastructure, Conservation,
Intergovernmental Coordination and Capital Improvement elements of the
comprehensive plan.
Comments on the 10-year Work Plan and Water Supply Concurrency
The 2005 growth management legislation requires local governments to prepare a 10-
Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan (Work Plan), and related text changes to the
goals, objectives, and policies of the comprehensive plan to implement the Work Plan.
The legislation requires the City to project water demands for at least a 10-year period,
and demonstrate that the current and planned water supply facilities and sources of
water will meet the projected demand. All local governments must also revise their
comprehensive plans to address water supply concurrency and ensure that their 5-year
schedules of capital improvements are financially feasible. The Department will focus
its attention on the City's effectiveness in analyzing its ability to supply water to future
Mr. Ray Eubanks
] une 8, 2007
Page 2 of 3
growth over the next ten years and the efficacy of the strategies that the City has chosen
to meet future water supply demands.
The City of Winter Springs's Work Plan contains a ten-year potable water and
reclaimed water supply and demand analysis for its service areas, including the
anticipated water supply deficits and surpluses. The data and analysis indicates that
the City's facility capacity, as well as its current Consumptive Use Permit (CUP), will
meet the City's water demand for the next tv\Tenty years. The Work Plan includes a
description of capital improvement projects required over the next ten years to meet the
City's water supply demands. The City's ten-year water supply strategy incorporates
efficient use o.f groundwater supplies, interconnection of systems, expansion of water
reuse systems, water conservation programs, and the study of alternative water sources.
The City's concurrency management system must ensure that adequate water supplies
and facilities will be available to serve new development no later than the date on
which the City anticipates issuing a certificate of occupancy. The 2005 growth
management legislation requires City consultation with the appropriate water supplier
during permit review to determine if adequate water will be available to serve the
development The concurrency management policies provided in the Work Plan's
Future Land Use, Infrastructure and Conservation elements meet this requirement.
The Department notes that the legislation also requires that the Work Plan be adopted
into the Potable Water Element. Several policies, such as Policy IV-B-3.1 of the
Infrastructure Element, include the phrase "based upon ti,e City's Water Supply Plan
2007," the City will meet specific goals. The Deparbnent recommends that the City
include pollcy language that clearly states that the Work Plan is a stand-alone document
fully incorporated into the Infrastructure Element of the Winter Springs Comprehensive
Plan.
One of the requirements for the Work Plan is a map showing where private wells and
septic systems are used and will continue to be used. The City has not met this
requirement. Data and analysis indicates that individual wells serve approximately 325
homes within the city limits and states that there are no plans to extend water lines to
these homes. Policy N-A4.4 of the Infrastructure Element, asserts that the City will
ensure that no new septic system permits will be approved for new development or for
existing systems which have been determined to be inoperable if central sewer is
available. The City should provide a map showing areas that are served with private
wells and septic systems. The term "available," as used in the above-mentioned policy,
should also be defined.
. ~1r.. Ray Eubanks
June 8, 2007
Page 3 of3
It appears that the City of Winter Springs has sufficiently analyzed its ability to meet the
potable water demands of future growth over the next ten years and has formalized
strategies to meet those demands. The Department's recommendations are focused on
clarifying language in several of the City's comprehensive plan policies and providing
appropriate data (well and septic map). The City may still need to meet requirements
of the St. Johns River "Vater Management District (SJRWMD) to identify and
incorporate alternative water supply project(s) listed in the updated SJRWMD regional
water supply plans.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed amendment package.

Dear Mr. Eubanks:
51. Johns River Water ManailcmerH District (District) planning staff have reviewed the above-
relCrenced proposed comprehensive plan amendment. ]'he proposed amendment eonslsts text
changes to the Potable Water and Natural Groundwater Aquifer Recharge sub-elements of the
Infrastructure E:lement, and the Future Land Use. Conservation. Intergovernmental Coordination,
and Capital lmprovernents elements to incorporate the City's WaleI' Supply Plan 2007 and work
plan. District staff have one objection, provided below. In addition, cornments related to the
\vork plan and other water supply planning requirements are provided below.
Obje(ction
The future water sources section on page IV.26 of the Potable Water (PW) sub-clement includes
the following statenrent, "As reclaimed water becomes available. potable water for irrigation use
will be prohibited." Item 3 in the City's work plan included in tbe PW sub-element (which is
proposed to be adopted) states, "Continue implementation of the residential reclaimed water
retrofit program. Optimize participation by prohibiting use of potable water for irrigation use, in
areas where reclaimed water is available." Infrastructure Policy IV-A-5.2 states, 'The City shall
prohibit the LIse of potable water for purposes irrigation where reclaimed water is available,"
and PW Pol icy IV -B-7.3 states, "Potable water vvill not be used for irrigation in areas where
reclaimed water is available for such irrigation." PW Policy IV-B-6.6 contains restrictions on the
use of individual private wells.
Whi Ie the District supports the intent of these provisions, these statements conflict with the
exclusive authority of the District to regulate the consumptive use of water Pat1 n, Chapter 373.
Florida Statutes (F.S.). Under Part II of Chapter F.S., tbe water management distriets and
the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) have exclusive authority to regulate
the consumptive use of water. Section 40C-2.042, Florida Administrative Code. grants a general
permit by rule to all persons located within the District to lise, vvithdraw or divert water for
landscape irrigation, provided the does not occur more tban two days per week and
does not occur between the hOllrs of 10 a.m. and 4 p,m daily. Moreover, these provisions may

by the City's comprehensive plan.
Projeded water demand as the basis for the work phm
The City's \vork plan should be based on either proJected water demands that are consistent with
the dcmands projected by the District in support of the DWSP 2005 or demands that have been
accounted for in the District's review of the City's consumptive use pcrmit (CUP) applications.
'rhe City's projected water demand and ,vater supply sources are provided in Tables IV-B-7,IV

infonnaLion submitted by the City in "uppon of its CUPs. District reviewers have requested
additional information to sLlppon the projections. If the CUP review results in any changes to the
City's projections, then the tables should be changed accordingly. The tables should be
referenced in the work plan.
In addition, the PW sub-clement, PW Policy IV -B-1. I , and Capital Improvements Policy 1 I
indicate thatlhe City's level of service for potable water supply is I 15 gallons per capita per day.

IV-B. POTABLE WATER SUB-ELEMENT
INTRODUCTION
The City of Winter Springs currendy owns, operates and maintains a central potable water treatment
and distribution system within its corporate limits. The City's potable water system provides water
for both residential and non-residential purposes, including fire-fighting demands. A Water and
Wastewater Rate Study for the City was initiated in 2001 to identify the appropriate impact fees for
potable water and sanitary sewer users.
In 2007, the City completed the City if Winter Springs' Water SupPlY Plan 2007 (SupplY Plan). The SupplY
Plan was part of legislation adopted in 2005 for the purpose of strengthening coordination of water
supply planning and local land use planning. The legislation required extensive evaluation of water
supply facilities for at least a ten-year planning period. The SupplY Plan's evaluation period projects
an eighteen-year planning period. By extending the planning period to 2025, the SupplY Plan is better
able to assess future needs and utilizes compatible planning increments with the St. Johns River
Water Management District (SJRWMD)'s District Water SupplY Plan 2005 .
The City is located in an area that the SJRWMD identifies as a priority water resource caution area in
the District Water SupplY Plan 2005. A priority water resource caution area is an area where existing
and reasonably anticipated sources of water may not be adequate to supply water for all existing legal
uses and anticipated future needs while sustaining water resources and related natural systems
through 2025. In 2004, the City entered into an interlocal agreement with Seminole County and the
other cities within the County to develop a county-wide water supply plan (County Plan). It is
anticipated that the County Plan will identify projects that are suitable to be included in a future
update or addendum to the Distn'ct Water SupplY Plan 2005.
Data and analysis within the SupplY Plan indicates that, based on future population projections,
analysis of the existing supply and treatment facilities associated with the continuation of the
residential reclaimed water system program and conservation programs, the City will not need
additional groundwater or other potable water sources to meet demands through 2025.
PUBLIC POTABLE WATER FACILITIES INVENTORY
a. Operational Responsibilitv
The City of Winter Springs Public Works/Utility Department is responsible for the operations and
maintenance of the central public water system within the City's service area.
b. Service Area
The City has historically provided potable water service to meet demands within the City's
boundaries, with the exception of a few parcels at the City's perimeter. These are served by the City
of Longwood, the City of Casselberry, or by Seminole County Environmental Services (SCES) and
represent an insignificant portion of each utility's service capability.
IV-13
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
INFRASTRUCTURE ELEMENT
Seminole County Environmental Services supplies potable water to Tuscawilla Unit 2. The City area
served by Seminole County currently includes approximately 65 single-family homes (22,750 GPD).
It is very small in comparison with the overall SCES capacity and can be adequately served by SCES.
According to information available from the Seminole County Water Supply Facilities Work Plan,
the current groundwater supply and treatment facilities are sufficient to meet the demands through
the 2025 projections. In general, the amount of water sold to Winter Springs residents is a small
fraction of the County's overall water demand.
The City of Casselberry serves approximately seven (7) commercial/warehouse customers on Belle
Avenue that are located within the City. These are direct customers of the City of Casselberry and
are not part of a wholesale or interlocal agreement. These customers are adequately served and
represent a small fraction of the Casselberry service capability.
Winter Springs entered into an interlocal agreement in 2006 with the City of Longwood to serve
certain identified properties along US 17-92. Currently, Longwood services only a few customers
that are located within the City.
Additionally, individual wells self-serve approximately 325 single family homes within the City limits.
There are no plans to extend water service lines into these areas at this time. Generally, the City
does not service areas outside of the City limits. The two sites served outside of the City are because
no other service was available.
As of April 2007, the City is servicing approximately 12,500 service connections. The predominant
users serviced by the central system are residential customers within the City limits. The central
water system service area is identified on Map IV-B-1: Service Area. No service area growth is
anticipated.

C. Water Treatment Plants
The City's central system consists of two (2) water service areas with three (3) water treatment plants
which are interconnected and which operate as one (1) system. Each of the service areas are
supplied by four wells.

Source: Winter Springs Utility Department, City of Winter Springs Water Supply Plan 2007.
WTP #1 is located at 851 Northern Way in the Tuskawilla residential planned unit development.
The plant has four (4) wells (5200 GPM); two (2) storage tanks [a 500,000 gallon ground storage
tank (aerator capability 3800 GPM) and a 1,000,000 gallon storage tank (aerator capability 3500
GPM)]; and three (3) high service pumps (7950 GPM). There is sufficient area for further
expansion of ground storage capacity and high service pumping.
WTP #2 is located at 700 Sheoah Boulevard in the Highlands residential planned unit development.
The plant has some minor room for further expansion. The plant includes two (2) wells (2200
GPM) [one on site and one offsite]; one 500,000 gallon ground storage tank (3800 GPM of aerator
capacity); and three high service pumps (4350 GPM).
WTP #3 is located at 110 West Bahama Road. The plant consists of two (2) wells (3500 GPM); one
500,000 gallon ground storage tank (aeration 3800 GPM); and three (3) high service pumps (3100
GPM).
All of the City's central system treatment facilities utilize the same basic process for water treatment.
First, raw groundwater is pumped from the aquifer through a cascade aerator atop the ground
storage tank for hydrogen sulfide removal. Second, the water is chlorinated/disinfected with either
sodium hypochlorite (a concentrated bleach) or chlorine gas and pumped into the distribution
system with high service pumping units. A phosphate inhibitor is added to the raw water and
provides a "passive" coating on the interior of pipes, thereby reducing the corrosion effect and
leaching of metallic constituents Oead and copper). Each of these treatment facilities consists of
several distinct parts, which together comprise a complete plant system, including: wells, treatment,
storage, and high service pumping.
d. Water Quality
The City's raw water quality meets the maximum contaminant levels for all currently regulated
inorganic and organic contaminants and is of good quality with the exception of high concentrations
of hydrogen sulfide, sulfate and chlorides, at specific wells. There is no evidence of coliform
bacteria. Raw water quality is described in detail in the SupplY Plan. The finished water quality
produced by the central system meets all State and Federal regulations related to the production of
safe drinking water. However, it is likely that new regulations by the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) will require removal of sulphur concentrations over .3 mg/l as
wells are altered or new wells are constructed.

e. Distribution System
The interconnected distribution system consists of water mains up to 16 inches in diameter. The
mains consist of various materials including: asbestos cement, ductile iron, polyvinyl! chloride, high
density polyethylene (HDPE) and cast iron, depending upon location and/ or design circumstances.
The distribution system is illustrated on Map IV-B-2: Water Line Distribution System.
f. Public Wells
The City's central potable water distribution system is connected to eight (8) potable water wells.
Drawdowns in the surficial aquifer are estimated to be very low. A five hundred (500) foot
minimum spacing between wells is maintained, in order to reduce possible interference between
wells. The current capacity for each well is identified below:

The City adheres to the standards adopted for wellhead protection by the SJRWMD and the FDEP,
including restricting the type of development allowed in the vicinity of a wellhead and requiring a
500-foot protection zone around each wellhead (see Future Land Use Element).
Land use surrounding a water supply site is a major consideration in the selection and protection of
well sites to avoid contamination. As part of the City's wellhead protection plan the City should
identify all potential sources of contamination for existing wells. The direction of groundwater flow
is to the northeast toward Lake J esup.
g. Potable Water Storaqe Facilities
The City has four (4) ground storage tanks connected to the central system. The capacity of each
storage tank is identified hereinafter:

ALTERNATE WATER SOURCES
The City of Winter Springs operates two (2) wastewater treatment plants with a combined treatment
capacity of approximately 3.56 MGD with a projected capacity of 4.77 MGD by 2010.
Wastewater is collected, treated, and redistributed for irrigation purposes. In 2007, the reclaimed
water system had 1720 residential connections utilizing a flow of approximately 1.1 MGD, average
daily flow. The reclaimed water has also been utilized at two golf courses (fuscawilla Golf Course
and Winter Springs Golf Club) a public park, and other urban landscape areas. The system has
reduced demands on the City's potable water system.
New subckv'isioll3 and other developments are required to mstall reclaimed ~atcr distribution lines
so that reclaimed 'i\'ater, when a-vailablc, ean meet irrigation demands. New dCv'elopments are also
encouraged to utilize storm water or surface waters fDt irrigation use whercv'er feasible.
New development which abuts existing or planned routes of the City's reclaimed water distribution
system is required to connect to the City's reclaimed water system. New development is also
encouraged to utilize storm water or surface waters for irrigation use. wherever feasible.
The system is currently constrained by the availability of wastewater in proportion to the demand
for irrigation water. Current irrigation demand exceeds the amount of wastewater generated by a

single family home by as much as four (4) times. Use of secondary sources of water to supplement
the system (such as Lake ]esup), will allow expansion of the City's reclaimed water system.
CONSERVATION PROGRAMS
The City has implemented numerous conservation programs:
Water Restrictions. The City follows the watering restrictions recommended by the S]RWMD,
which prohibit watering between the hours of lOAM and 4 PM and more than twice a week. An
ordinance implemented in 2001 addresses water shortage conditions and watering restrictions that
can be imposed by the City. This restriction applies to all water uses including potable, reclaimed
water use, surface water and shallow wells.
Conservation Rate Structure. Since 1998, the City has used a 5-tier water conservation promoting
rate structure for the pricing of potable water use. The City also uses a 3-tier rate structure for
reclaimed water use.
Reclaimed Water Program. The City's reclaimed water program and the water conservation benefits
of the program are promoted through literature distributed to water customers. New developments
are required to construct a reclaimed or other non-potable water distribution system.
Additional water conservation practices that have been implemented include: Conducting an
informal leak detection program; Use of billing software to reduce discrepancies in reported gallons
billed versus gallons pumped; Requiring compliance with the Florida Building Code standards for
low volume fixtures in all new development; Promotion of water efficient landscape and irrigation
(Xeris cap e™) practices through regulations and education; Providing sites which showcase
examples of Xeriscape™ practices; Using native vegetation on public lands as feasible; Providing
retrofit kits and making water conservation literature available; and Providing public tours of
facilities.
WATER SUPPLY CONCURRENCY
In order to ensure that water is available at time of development, a concurrency management
procedure has been implemented. This procedure includes the participation of a representative
from the City's Utility Department as a participant during development review. This representative
addresses availability of potable and reclaimed water to new development, thus ensuring that the
approval of development orders are coordinated with the availability of a water supply.
The demand per capita for potable water is calculated by taking the volume of water treated and
pumped and dividing it by the City's population. The City's consumption rate went from a high of
145 gallons per capita per day (GPCD) (1998) to a low of 104 GPCD (2003). Demand can fluctuate
considerably depending upon the weather patterns of a given year. An extremely dry year in 2006
increased demand to 135 GPCD. This represents the volatility of irrigation demands on the water
supply. Expanding the City's Reclaimed Water and Conservation Programs will ensure that the
potable water demand is reduced regardless of weather patterns. The City projects that the per
capita potable water consumption will continue to decrease from historic patterns, given the
expansion of the reclaimed water system, conservation programs, and development of infill

properties with denser housing configurations, such as townhouses, apartments and condominiums,
rather than large lot single family homes.
The City's level of service (LOS) for the potable water supply is a minimum of 115 gallons per capita
per day (GPCD).
PROJECTED WATER NEEDS AND SOURCES
a. Population
Population growth is expected to increase by 1.2 % per year over the 18-year period through 2025.
This projection adds 8835 people to the City.
Population and corresponding water demand rates are the most important factors in determining the
need for additional supply and treatment facilities. Historical rates of water usage were analyzed to
better understand demand factors.
b. Potable Water Capacity Surpluses and Deficiencies
As of 2007, the City of Winter Springs's central system is providing 9.4 MGD maximum daily flow.
Treatment plants are rated by their ability to serve based on the limiting component. Currendy this
limiting component is the storage capacity. The storage system has a maximum capacity of 10.1
MGD (maximum daily flow criterion). Therefore, there is an estimated 0.70 million gallons per day
of surplus capacity. The existing system is able to serve all of the existing residential and non-
residential units that are currendy connected to private wells. The City does not have any capacity
deficiencies within the central system.
c. Future Demand Capacity
The ability of the City's system to meet the consumptive demand is controlled by the maximum
permitted pumping capacity as limited by the City's Consumptive Use permit from the St. John's
River Water Management District. SJRWMD has indicated that the permitted supply of
groundwater will be frozen at the 2013 level for subsequent years, based on what the Floridan
Aquifer can support for the region.
Future water demand was forecast based on City population projections through 2025. The City has
the capacity to service the City's potable water demands through the projected planning period,
while considering the 2013 limitations. The expanded use of reclaimed water further reduces this
demand and enables the City to meet its LOS.

INFRASTRUCTURE ELEMENT
The Capital Improvements Schedule identifies projects scheduled to be completed within the next
five (5) years to enable the City to meet its LOS for potable water. Because the City does not have
any capacity deficiencies, these projects represent the expansion of the reclaimed water system and
provision of an alternative water source. Improvements to provide for facility upgrades or existing
maintenance requirements are also included.
d. Fire Protection
In addition to domestic and commercial demand, the City has identified the need to rate the water
system in terms of its ability to provide fire protection. To rate the water system in terms of fire
protection, the City has embraced the fire protection standards of the NFP A (National Fire
Protection Association) and the ISO (Insurance Services Office).
Recommended fire protection standards for each land use designation have been established. In
order to identify areas of possible deficiency in meeting the fire protection standards, fire
department hydrant flow test data was analyzed. As of 2007, the City does not have any
deficiencies.

e. Performance and Condition of Existing Facilities
The water quality from the Floridan Aquifer is sufficiendy good and only requires aeration and
chlorination treatment to provide potable water. Each of the City's three water treatment plants has
consistendy operated in compliance with all criteria established by the FDEP and the Florida
Department of Health with respect to public water supplies.
All three of the City's water treatment plants (WTP #1, WTP #2 & WTP #3) were constructed in
1972. Each plant continues to be maintained in good operating condition. Repairs and/or upgrades
to each plant are performed as required on an individual basis. Each plant should have a minimum
remaining useful life of at least 40 years.
The following table summarizes the City's historical and projected water consumption data based on
plant flow records from January 2001 to December 2006 and shows the SJRWMD's CUP data in
comparison to demand. Conservation efforts and an expanded reclaimed water system have led to a
general decrease in per capita demand, with the exception of 2006 which was a particularly dry year.

FUTURE WATER SOURCES
Limitations on the Floridan Aquifer as a resource require the City to consider alternative water
sources. The 2006 Addendum to the SjRWMD's District Water SupplY Plan 2005 included alternative
water source options for local jurisdictions to consider. Winter Springs is currently in the planning
stages of the Winter Springs - Lake Jesup Reclaimed Water Augmentation Project. This project is
a single jurisdiction project and is projected to produce 2.25 MGD. Winter Springs has requested
cost-share funding under the Water Protection and Sustainability Program and has been granted
$1.82 million over a three year period (2008-2010). Total construction cost is anticipated at $6.06
million. Winter Springs has purchased a site for the plant on the south shore of Lake J esup and in
2006, applied for a CUP (#105763) for the withdrawal of surface water from the Lake to
supplement its reclaimed water supply. The CUP application is under review by the SJRWMD. The
project consists of construction of filtration treatment, two 1.0 MGD ground storage tanks,
pumping facilities and high level disinfectant facilities. The facility will be constructed with
expansion capacity to provide treated surface water to neighboring entities not in the Winter
Springs' service area, through interconnects based on interlocal agreements. Completion of the
project is slated for 2010.
Over the next 18-year period, it is estimated that another 3.2 MGD will be made available from the
reclaimed water system and the future water augmentation system. The City is continuing to expand
its reclaimed water distribution system. It anticipates supplying approximately 20% of its residents
with reclaimed water for landscape irrigation by 2013 and expanding to every single family detached
home which is connected to City sanitary sewer service by 2025. Projections for the use of
reclaimed water indicate that public reception is above average and that it is a viable source of
irrigation water for the City. Reclaimed water reduces demand for potable water and will allow the
City to use potable water for new development which is its highest and best use. As reclaimed water
becomes available, potable water for irrigation use will be prohibited.
FUTURE CONSERVATION PROGRAMS
Conservation Programs can impact public perception and support of good stewardship of water
resources. These efforts, however, are not able to be quantified in terms of MGD reductions on a
spreadsheet. If they were, they would appear to have only an insignificant impact. Their greater
impact is a greater community awareness of the identity of the place in which they reside and how to
better sustain it. The following summarizes key areas where the City can make improvements:
Land Development Regulations. The City's Land Development Regulations will be revised to
reflect best practices in water efficient landscaping and the use of native plant materials.
Water Conservation Education. The City's web site will be expanded to include information on
water conservation. Water conservation materials will be displayed at City Hall. The City will
continue to implement examples of water efficient landscapes (Xeriscapes TM) as models for the
public. The City will consider initiating an award program recognizing best practices in water
efficient landscaping within Winter Springs and consider supporting City Staff training and
involvement in school programs such as "Drop Savers" and "Project WET".
Retrofits. The City will continue its meter replacement program to retrofit meters with unaccounted
water loss and consider incentives for retrofitting old plumbing fixtures with low volume fixtures.

hydropneumatic tank and a 500,000-gallon ound storage tank.
Combined, these two treatment plants have
limited by the City of Winter Springs Consu tive Use Permit (permit no. 2-117-
0029NGM3R) as issued by the St. Johns River ~ater Management District. This
permit, which expires in October of 2006, allows r a combined annual withdrawal
of 1598.7 million gallons for 2001,1.653.5 million ons for 2002,1719.2 million
gallons for 2003, 1792.2 million gallons for 2004, 18 .4 million gallons for 2005,
and 1963.7 million gallons for 2006.
Public Potable Water Storage Facilities
The City has four (4) ground storage tanks connected to he central system as
described above. The capacity of each storage tank is identified' Table IV-B-4.
Public Distribution System
All of three of the water treatment plants are connected to the in distribution
system. This central distribution system consists of water mains rangin in size from
2 inches to 16 inches. The vast majority of the distribution system cons! s primarily
of six (6), eight (8), ten (10) and twelve (12) inch mains. The predomina material
used throughout the distribution system is PVC pipe. However, some cement

centr system. Three service pumps per plant location. The wells, which serve the
Central ystem, are adequate to supply water to meet the high service pumps
distributi capacity. Based on the criteria noted above, the City's Central system is
rated at 12 . 'on gallons per day (MGD).
Public Potab
As previously ill tioned, the City's central potable water distribution system is
connected to seve (7) potable water wells. These wells are located on site at the
City's potable water reatment plants. The City currendy has a consumptive use
permit with the Wate Management District that allows the City to withdraw a
maximum volume of wa as previously detailed. The current demand for each well
is identified in Table IV-B-
In order to ensure that wellhe s are protected from contamination, the City restricts
the type of development owed in the vicinity of a wellhead through
implementation of the Future La Use Map, as well as Code of Ordinances. Map
1-2 of the Future Land Use elemerr identifies the existing land uses within the City
of Winter Springs. Map IV -B-1 iden es the location of the wellheads including the
500-foot protection zones. The City a eres to the standards adopted for wellhead
protection by the St. Johns River Water nagement District and the FDEP.
The Floridan Aquifer in the Winter Springs rea receives low to moderate recharge
from the surficial aquifer. This is due to water ble elevation differences between the
surficial aquifer and the Floridan Aquifer and t e vertical hydraulic conductivity of
the soils. The transmissivity is sufficiendy high s h that most large diameter wells,
twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) inches, can be expec d to produce over 1,500 gallons
per minute (GPM) with litde draw down in the we and litde impact to adjacent
users. Drawdowns in the surficial aquifer are estimate to be very low, due to the
Hawthorn Formation. In order to lessen the interfere ce between wells, a five
hundred (500) foot minimum spacing between wells is mal tained. At that distance
the draw down in one well due to another will be minimal.
Public Level of Service
The central system currendy treats an average of 4.193 million g ons per day of
potable water. The existing level of service for potable water dema d is calculated
by dividing the volume of water treated and pumped by the City's po ulation. The
current level of service provided is estimated to be 123 gallons per cap a per day.
This amount is for residential and non-residential combined.

ER FACILITY NEEDS ANALYSIS
c.
Potable War Capacity Surpluses and Deficiencies
a.
The evaluation of n essary systems to meet domestic and commercial consumptive
demand is based upon he entire system's ability to meet peak hour flow. Presently,
the ability of the City's s tern to meet the consumptive demand is controlled by the
maximum permitted pum 'ng capacity as limited by the City's Consumptive Use
permit from the SJRWMD.
The City of Winter Springs's ntral system is currently providing 4.193 MGD,
average daily flow. The system n a maximum capacity of 12.0 MGD. Therefore,
there is an estimated 7.8 million gall s per day of surplus capacity, which is available
for additional connections. Therefore, e central system has the capacity to serve all
of the existing residential and non-resi tial units that are currently connected to
private systems or private wells.
To date, the City has not identified any level f service related existing deficiencies
within the potable water treatment and . stribution system. The Capital
Improvements Program identifies various projects cheduled to be completed within
the next five years. Many of these projects represe improvements to provide for
facility upgrades or existing maintenance requirements. The City does not currently
reserve future capacity for developments other than thos agreements made prior to
the City's purchase of the utilities.
b. Future Demand Capacity
Future water demand was forecast based on City population projec 'ons. The level of
service standard used in the calculation is 115 gallons per capita per
The potable water demand was projected for the years 2005 and 2010 the City's
Engineering & Community Development department and was prepared p . or to the
2000 Census. By 2005, the demand is projected to be 4.84 MGD, increasin to 6.01
MGD by the year 2010. As previously stated, the cumulative maximum sign
capacity of the three WTP's is 12.0 MGD and the maximum capacity of all the . h
service pumps is 24.84 MGD. Therefore, the City's central system has the capacl
IV-16

to service the projected growth. However, the City will be required to increase the
maximum permitted withdrawal volume when it renews the Consumptive Use
permit in 2006 in order to meet the projected demand.
A detailed list of capital projects required to meet future service demand through
fiscal year 2005-2006 and eliminate expected deficiencies is presented in the Capital
Improvements Element.
Fire Protection
In a .tion to domestic and commercial demand, the City has identified the need to
rate th water system in terms of its ability to provide fire protection. To rate the
water sys m in terms of fire protection, the City has embraced the fire protection
standards the NFP A (National Fire Protection Association) and the ISO
(Insurance Se ices Office).
Recommended level of service standards for each land use
designation has 0 n established. A tiered approach is applied to meet fire
protection level of se ice (LOS) standards.
of possible deficiency in meeting the fire protection LOS,
fire department hydrant w test data was analyzed in selected areas of the City. To
date, only one (1) deficiency xists in the system and it shall be eliminated by the end
of 2002 when the S.R. 434 2" water main from Spine Road to Vistawilla is
constructed. This improvement roject is listed within the Capital Improvements
Program.
2. Performance and Condition of Exis "ng Facilities
The water quality from the Floridan aquifer is s ficiently good and only requires aeration
and chlorination treatment to provide potable wate Additionally, Ortho-Poly-Phosphate is
added to allow for corrosion control at WTP-1.
Each of the City's three water treatment plants have nsistently operated in compliance
with all criteria established by the FDEP and Departm t of Health and Rehabilitative
Services with respect to public water supplies.
All three of the City's water treatment plants (WTP-1, WTP-2 WTP-3) were constructed
in 1972. Each plant continues to be operated and maintained in ood operating condition.
Repairs and/or upgrades to each plant are performed as require on an individual, basis.
Each plant should have a minimum remaining useful life of 50 years.

Potable Water Facility Replacement, Expansion and New Facility Siting
Reco nded capital projects to overcome existing deficiencies in water transmission, and
to provid system capacity needed for projected growth, are included in the Capital
Improveme Schedule. All of the City's water treatment plants are programmed for
improvement ring the short term planning horizon. There are also several line extensions
programmed du g the short term planning horizon.
a.
Future wells sh d be between twelve (12) and twenty-four (24) inches in diameter
and be cased appr . ately 150 feet deep and be open from 150 to around 400 feet
to produce at least , 00 GPM. Wells in the south can be expected to require 300 to
350 feet of casing bec se of the soft nature of the limestone. The wells should be
spaced at least five hun d (500) feet apart to minimize draw down impacts on the
other wells. The City antic ates construction a new well to be located at WTP-l in
the near future.

IV-B. POTABLE WATER SUB-ELEMENT
INTRODUCTION
The City of Winter Springs currently owns, operates and maintains a central potable water treatment
and distribution system within its corporate limits. The City's potable water system provides water
for both residential and non-residential purposes, including fIre-fighting demands. A Water and
Wastewater Rate Study for the City was initiated in 2001 to identify the appropriate impact fees for
potable water and sanitary sewer users.
In 2007, the City completed the City of Winter Springs' Water SupplY Pian 2007 (SupplY Pian). The SupplY
Pian was part of legislation adopted in 2005 for the purpose of strengthening coordination of water
supply planning and local land use planning. The legislation required extensive evaluation of water
supply facilities for at least a ten-year planning period. The SupplY Pian:r evaluation period projects
an eighteen-year planning period. By extending the planning period to 2025, the SupplY Pian is better
able to assess future needs and utilizes compatible planning increments with the St. Johns River
Water Management District (SJRWMD)'s Distn"ct Water SupplY Pian 2005 .
The City is located in an area that the SJR'W'MD identifIes as a priority water resource caution area in
the Distn"ct Water SupplY Pian 2005. A priority water resource caution area is an area where existing
and reasonably anticipated sources of water may not be adequate to supply water for all existing legal
uses and anticipated future needs while sustaining water resources and related natural systems
through 2025. In 2004, the City entered into an interlocal agreement with Seminole County and the
other cities within the County to develop a county-wide water supply plan (County Plan). It is
anticipated that the County Plan \\ill identify projects that are suitable to be included in a future
update or addendum to the Distn"ct IFater SupplY Pian 2005.
Data and analysis within the Suppb Pian indicates that, based on future population projections,
analysis of the existing supply and treatment facilities associated with the continuation of the
residential reclaimed water system program and conservation programs, the City will not need
additional groundwater or other potable water sources to meet demands through 2025.
PUBLIC POTABLE WATER FACILITIES INVENTORY
a. Operational Responsibilitv
The City of Winter Springs Public Works/Utility Department is responsible for the operations and
maintenance of the central public water system within the City's service area.
b. Service Area
The City has historically provided potable water service to meet demands within the City's
boundaries, with the exception of a few parcels at the City's perimeter. These are served by the City
of Longwood, the City of Casselberry, or by Seminole County Environmental Services (SCES) and
represent an insignificant portion of each utility's service capability.
IV -13
CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
INFRASTRUCTURE ELEMENT
Seminole County Environmental Services supplies potable water to Tuscawilla Unit 2. The City area
served by Seminole County currently includes approximately 65 single-family homes (22,750 GPD).
It is very small in comparison with the overall SCES capacity and can be adequately served by SCES.
According to information available from the Seminole County Water Supply Facilities Work Plan,
the current groundwater supply and treatment facilities are sufficient to meet the demands through
the 2025 projections. In general, the amount of water sold to \X!inter Springs residents is a small
fraction of the County's overall water demand.
The City of Casselberry serves approximately seven (7) commercial/warehouse customers on Belle
Avenue that are located within the City. These are direct customers of the City of Casselberry and
are not part of a wholesale or interlocal agreement. These customers are adequately served and
represent a small fraction of the Casselberry service capability.
\X!inter Springs entered into an interlocal agreement in 2006 with the City of Longwood to serve
certain identified properties along US 17-92. Currently, Longwood services only a few customers
that are located within the City.
Additionally, individual wells self-serve approximately 325 single family homes within the City limits.
There are no plans to extend water service lines into these areas at this time. Generally, the City
does not service areas outside of the City limits. The two sites served outside of the City are because
no other service was available.
As of April 2007, the City is servicing approximately 12,500 service connections. The predominant
users serviced by the central system are residential customers within the City limits. The central
water system service area is identified on Map IV-B-1: Service Area. No service area growth is
anticipated.

C. Water Treatment Plants
The City's central system consists of two (2) water service areas with three (3) water treatment plants
which are interconnected and which operate as one (1) system. Each of the service areas are
supplied by four wells.

Source: Winter Springs Utility Department, City of Winter Springs Water Supply Plan 2007.
\VTP #1 is located at 851 Northern Way in the Tuskawilla residential planned unit development.
The plant has four (4) wells (5200 GPM); two (2) storage tanks [a 500,000 gallon ground storage
tank (aerator capability 3800 GPM) and a 1,000,000 gallon storage tank (aerator capability 3500
GPM)]; and three (3) high service pumps (7950 GPM). There is sufficient area for further
expansion of ground storage capacity and high service pumping.
\\1TP #2 is located at 700 Sheoah Boulevard in the Highlands residential planned unit development.
The plant has some minor room for further expansion. The plant includes two (2) wells (2200
GP:Lv1) [one onsite and one offsite]; one 500,000 gallon ground storage tank (3800 GPM of aerator
capacity); and three high service pumps (4350 GP:Lv1).
\VTP #3 is located at 110 West Bahama Road. The plant consists of two (2) wells (3500 GP:Lv1); one
500,000 gallon ground storage tank (aeration 3800 GPM); and three (3) high service pumps (3100
GPM).
.All of the City's central system treatment facilities utilize the same basic process for water treatment.
First, raw groundwater is pumped from the aquifer through a cascade aerator atop the ground
storage tank for hydrogen sulfide removal. Second, the water is chlorinated/disinfected with either
sodium hypochlorite (a concentrated bleach) or chlorine gas and pumped into the distribution
system with high service pumping units. A phosphate inhibitor is added to the raw water and
provides a "passive" coating on the interior of pipes, thereby reducing the corrosion effect and
leaching of metallic constituents 0ead and copper). Each of these treatment facilities consists of
several distinct parts, which together comprise a complete plant system, including: wells, treatment,
storage, and high service pumping.
d. Water Qualitv
The City's raw water quality meets the maximum contaminant levels for all currently regulated
inorganic and organic contaminants and is of good quality 'W1.th the exception of high concentrations
of hydrogen sulfide, sulfate and chlorides, at specific wells. There is no evidence of coliform
bacteria. Raw water quality is described in detail in the SupplY Plan. The finished water quality
produced by the central system meets all State and Federal regulations related to the production of
safe drinking water. However, it is likely that new regulations by the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) 'Wrill require removal of sulphur concentrations over .3 mg/l as
wells are altered or new wells are constructed.

e. Distribution System
The interconnected distribution system consists of water mains up to 16 inches in diameter. The
mains consist of various materials including: asbestos cement, ductile iron, polyvinyl/ chloride, high
density polyethylene (HDPE) and cast iron, depending upon location and/or design circumstances.
The distribution system is illustrated on Map IV -B-2: Water Line Distribution System.
f. Public Wells
The City's central potable water distribution system is connected to eight (8) potable water wells.
Drawdowns in the surficial aquifer are estimated to be very low. A five hundred (500) foot
minimum spacing between wells is maintained, in order to reduce possible interference between
wells. The current capacity for each well is identified below:

The City adheres to the standards adopted for wellhead protection by the S]R\X1MD and the FDEP,
including restricting the type of development allowed in the v..;cinity of a wellhead and requiring a
SOO-foot protection zone around each wellhead (see Future Land Use Element).
Land use surrounding a water supply site is a major consideration in the selection and protection of
well sites to avoid contamination. As part of the City's wellhead protection plan the City should
identify all potential sources of contamination for existing wells. The direction of groundwater flow
is to the northeast toward Lake] esup.
g. Potable Water StoraQe Facilities
The City has four (4) ground storage tanks connected to the central system. The capacity of each

ALTERNATE WATER SOURCES
The City of \V'inter Springs operates two (2) wastewater treatment plants \\~th a combined treatment
capacity of approximately 3.56 MGD \\~th a projected capacity of 4.77 MGD by 2010.
Wastewater is collected, treated, and redistributed for irrigation purposes. In 2007, the reclaimed
water system had 1720 residential connections utilizing a flow of approximately 1.1 MGD, average
daily flow. The reclaimed water has also been utilized at two golf courses (Tuscawilla Golf Course
and Winter Springs Golf Club) a public park, and other urban landscape areas. The system has
reduced demands on the City's potable water system.
New subdivisions and other developments are required to install reclaimed water distribution lines
so that reclaimed water, when available, can meet irrigation demands. New developments are also
encouraged to utilize storm water or surface waters for irrigation use wherever feasible.
The system is currently constrained by the availability of wastewater in proportion to the demand
for irrigation water. Current irrigation demand exceeds the amount of wastewater generated by a
single family home by as much as four (4) times. Use of secondary sources of water to supplement
the system (such as Lake]esup), \vill allow expansion of the City's reclaimed water system.

CONSERVATION PROGRAMS
The City has implemented numerous conservation programs:
Water Restrictions. The City follows the watering restrictions recommended by the SJR\XlMD,
which prohibit watering between the hours of 10 AM and 4 PM and more than twice a week. An
ordinance implemented in 2001 addresses water shortage conditions and watering restrictions that
can be imposed by the City. This restriction applies to all water uses including potable, reclaimed
water use, surface water and shallow wells.
Conservation Rate Structure. Since 1998, the City has used a 5-tier water conservation promoting
rate structure for the pricing of potable water use. The City also uses a 3-tier rate structure for
reclaimed water use.
Reclaimed \Xlater Program. The City's reclaimed water program and the water conservation benefits
of the program are promoted through literature distributed to water customers. New developments
are required to construct a reclaimed or other non-potable water distribution system.
Additional water conservation practices that have been implemented include: Conducting an
informal leak detection program; Use of billing software to reduce discrepancies in reported gallons
billed versus gallons pumped; Requiring compliance with the Florida Building Code standards for
low volume fixtures in all new development; Promotion of water efficient landscape and irrigation
(Xeriscape™) practices through regulations and education; Providing sites which showcase
examples of Xeriscape™ practices; Using native vegetation on public lands as feasible; Providing
retrofit kits and making water conservation literature available; and Providing public tours of
facilities.
WATER SUPPLY CONCURRENCY
In order to ensure that water is available at time of development, a concurrency management
procedure has been implemented. This procedure includes the participation of a representative
from the City's Utility Department as a participant during development review. This representative
addresses availability of potable and reclaimed water to new development, thus ensuring that the
approval of development orders are coordinated with the availability of a water supply.
The demand per capita for potable water is calculated by taking the volume of water treated and
pumped and dividing it by the City's population. The City's consumption rate went from a high of
145 gallons per capita per day (GPCD) (1998) to a low of 104 GPCD (2003). Demand can fluctuate
considerably depending upon the weather patterns of a given year. An extremely dry year in 2006
increased demand to 135 GPCD. This represents the volatility of irrigation demands on the water
supply. Expanding the City's Reclaimed Water and Conservation Programs will ensure that the
potable water demand is reduced regardless of weather patterns. The City projects that the per
capita potable water consumption will continue to decrease from historic patterns, given the
expansion of the reclaimed water system, conservation programs, and development of infill
properties with denser housing configurations, such as townhouses, apartments and condominiums,
rather than large lot single family homes.
The City's level of service (LOS) for the potable water supply is a minimum of 115 gallons per capita
per day (GPCD).

PROJECTED WATER NEEDS AND SOURCES
a. Population
Population growth is expected to increase by 1.2 % per year over the 18-year period through 2025.
This projection adds 8835 people to the City.
Population and corresponding water demand rates are the most important factors in determining the
need for additional supply and treatment facilities. Historical rates of water usage were analyzed to
better understand demand factors.
b. Potable Water Capacity Surpluses and Deficiencies
As of 2007, the City of Winter Springs's central system is providing 9.4 MGD maximum daily flow.
Treatment plants are rated by their ability to serve based on the limiting component. Currently this
limiting component is the storage capacity. The storage system has a maximum capacity of 10.1
MGD (maximum daily flow criterion). Therefore, there is an estimated 0.70 million gallons per day
of surplus capacity. The existing system is able to serve all of the existing residential and non-
residential units that are currently connected to private wells. The City does not have any capacity
deficiencies within the central system.
c. Future Demand Capacity
The ability of the City's system to meet the consumptive demand is controlled by the maximum
permitted pumping capacity as limited by the City's Consumptive Use permit from the St. John's
River Water Management District. SJR\XlMD has indicated that the permitted supply of
groundwater will be frozen at the 2013 level for subsequent years, based on what the Floridan
Aquifer can support for the region.
Future water demand was forecast based on City population projections through 2025. The City has
the capacity to service the City's potable water demands through the projected planning period,
while considering the 2013 limitations. The expanded use of reclaimed water further reduces this
demand and enables the City to meet its LOS.

pro-vision of an alternative water source. Improvements to prmride for facility upgrades or existing
maintenance requirements are also included.
d. Fire Protection
In addition to domestic and commercial demand, the City has identified the need to rate the water
system in terms of its ability to provide fire protection. To rate the water system in terms of fire
protection, the City has embraced the fire protection standards of the NFPA (National Fire
Protection Association) and the ISO (Insurance Services Office).
Recommended fire protection standards for each land use designation have been established. In
order to identify areas of possible deficiency in meeting the fire protection standards, fire
department hydrant flow test data was analyzed. As of 2007, the City does not have any
deficiencies.

e. Performance and Condition of Existing Facilities
The water quality from the Floridan Aquifer is sufficiently good and only requires aeration and
chlorination treatment to pro-vide potable water. Each of the City's three water treatment plants has
consistently operated in compliance with all criteria established by the FDEP and the Florida
Department of Health with respect to public water supplies.
All three of the City's water treatment plants (WTP #1, 'W'TP #2 & \,Trp #3) were constructed in
1972. Each plant continues to be maintained in good operating condition. Repairs and/or upgrades
to each plant are performed as required on an individual basis. Each plant should have a minimum
remaining useful life of at least 40 years.
The folio-wing table summarizes the City's historical and projected water consumption data based on
plant flow records from January 2001 to December 2006 and shows the SJR\v1\ID's CUP data in
comparison to demand. Conservation efforts and an expanded reclaimed water system have led to a
general decrease in per capita demand, with the exception of 2006 which was a particularly dry year.

FUTURE WATER SOURCES
Limitations on the Floridan Aquifer as a resource require the City to consider alternative water
sources. The 2006 Addenduln to the SjRW10D's District Water SupplY Plan 2005 included alternative
water source options for local jurisdictions to consider. Winter Springs is currently in the planning
stages of the Winter Springs - Lake Jesup Reclaimed Water Augmentation Project. This project is
a single jurisdiction project and is projected to produce 2.25 MGD. Winter Springs has requested
cost-share funding under the Water Protection and Sustainability Program and has been granted
$1.82 million over a three year period (2008-2010). Total construction cost is anticipated at $6.06
million. \Vinter Springs has purchased a site for the plant on the south shore of Lake J esup and in
2006, applied for a CUP (#105763) for the withdrawal of surface water from the Lake to
supplement its reclaimed water supply. The CUP application is under review by the SJRw:MD. The
project consists of construction of fIltration treatment, two 1.0 MGD ground storage tanks,
pumping facilities and high level disinfectant facilities. The facility 'Will be constructed with
expansion capacity to provide treated surface water to neighboring entities not in the \Vinter
Springs' service area, through interconnects based on interlocal agreements. Completion of the
project is slated for 2010.
Over the next 18-year period, it is estimated that another 3.2 MGD \\ill be made available from the
reclaimed water system and the future water augmentation system. The City is continuing to expand
its reclaimed water distribution system. It anticipates supplying approximately 20% of its residents
with reclaimed water for landscape irrigation by 2013 and expanding to every single family detached
home which is connected to City sanitary sewer service by 2025. Projections for the use of
reclaimed water indicate that public reception is above average and that it is a viable source of
irrigation water for the City. Reclaimed water reduces demand for potable water and will allow the
City to use potable water for new development which is its highest and best use. As reclaimed water
becomes available, potable water for irrigation use will be prohibited.
FUTURE CONSERVATION PROGRAMS
Conservation Programs can impact public perception and support of good stewardship of water
resources. These efforts, however, are not able to be quantifIed in terms of MGD reductions on a
spreadsheet. If they were, they would appear to have only an insignifIcant impact. Their greater
impact is a greater community awareness of the identity of the place in which they reside and how to
better sustain it. The following summarizes key areas where the City can make improvements:
Land Development Regulations. The City's Land Development Regulations will be re,rised to
reflect best practices in water effIcient landscaping and the use of native plant materials.
Water Conservation Education. The City's web site will be expanded to include information on
water conservation. \Vater conservation materials will be displayed at City Hall. The City will
continue to implement examples of water efficient landscapes (Xeriscapes™) as models for the
public. The City will consider initiating an award program recognizing best practices in water
effIcient landscaping within Winter Springs and consider supporting City Staff training and
involvement in school programs such as "Drop Savers" and "Project W'ET".
RetrofIts. The City will continue its meter replacement program to retrofIt meters with unaccounted
water loss and consider incentives for retrofItting old plumbing fIxtures with low volume fIxtures.

Water Supply Work Plan, April 2007
(Planning Period through 2025)
Winter Springs is proposing to continue the progressive plan that it has been implementing since its
fIrst purchase of private utilities in 1984. Winter Springs' approach to meeting the projected water
demand through 2025 is based on sound solutions, both economically and environmentally.
1. Optimize the use of groundwater as a source of potable water, in an environmentally effective
manner. Require connection to the City's central system in areas where potable water lines are
\vithin the right-of-way. Continue meter replacement program to retrofit meters which have
unaccounted water loss. Consider incentives for retrofItting old plumbing fixtures with low volume
fixtures.
2. Implement ordinances that encourage water conservation, Xeriscape™ landscaping and low water
use devices, ete. Revise land development regulations to reflect best practices in water efficient
landscaping and the use of native plant materials.
3. Continue implementation of the residential reclaimed water retrofit program. Optimize
participation by prohibiting use of potable water for irrigation use, in areas where reclaimed water is
available.
4. Continue to require new development to prov'ide infrastructure for connection to reclaimed water
or use of surface water from stormwater ponds supplemented with private wells for irrigation.
5. Continue evaluation and development of alternative water supplies and/or augmentation sources.
Support regional water supply initiatives and cooperative efforts with other jurisdictions. The City
has land available on the shore of Lake Jesup for a secondary (non-potable) water treatment facility,
to provide supplemental water to its existing reclaimed distribution system.
6. Seek funding assistance on reclaimed water and alternative water supply programs to reduce
burden on customer base.
7. Continue the implementation of water conservation lrutlatlves. Expand website to include
information on water conservation. Display and make water conservation materials available at City
Hall. Continue to implement Xeriscape™ demonstration projects as a tool for public awareness.
Consider initiating an award program recognizing best practices in water efficient landscaping within
Winter Springs. Consider supporting City Staff training and involvement in school programs such

The City has historic ,been able to provide adequate potable water service to meet the demand
'W'ithin the City's bou aries. Presently, the City does not service surrounding areas of
unincorporated Seminole ounty with the exception of a single commercial property, Gould's
Publications, located on S.R. 17-92 north of Shepard Road.
In 2001, a Water and Waste tel' Rate Study for the City of Winter Springs was initiated. The
primary objective of the study rill be to identify the appropriate impact fees for potable water and
sarutary sewer users.

and Ta e IV-B-l summarizes the plant capacities and current demand.
Water Tr tment Plants
The East '\ er Treatment Plant (\XlTP-l) is located at 851 Northern Way. This
facility service the eastern half of the City. The maximum design capacity of this
treatment plant currently 6.0 million gallons per day. The current average demand
on the EWTP is '/.615 million gallons per day. This plant has several support
facilities, including: ree (3) wells (1 @ 1,200 GPM and 2 @ 2,000 GPM), three (3)
high service pumps .ated @ 2,400, 2,600 and 3,350 GPM), and two (2) above
ground storage tanks (0. - and 1.0 million gallon capacity).
The West Water Treatmen Plant consists of two separate plants (WTP-2 & \vrP-3)
located at separate sites. -2 is located at 700 Sheoah Boulevard. \v'TP-3 is
located at 110 West Bahama venue. Together, these facilities service the western
portion of the City. The ma .mum design capacity for both treatment plants
combined is 6.0 million gallons p day. The current demand on the plants (\vrP-2
& WTP-3) is 1.627 million gallon per day. The follO\\ling support facilities are
provided at each plant: two (2) wells TP-2: 2 @ 1100 GPM, WTP-3: 1100 GPM
& 1800 GPM), three (3) high service umps (rated @ \XlTP-2: 2500 GPM, 900
GPM, & 1200 GPM, W'TP-3: 250 GPM, 950 GPM & 850 GPM), a
hydropneumatic tank and a 500,000-gallon round storage tank.
Combined, these two treatment plants have maximum pumping capacity which is
limited by the City of Winter Springs Consu tive Use Permit (permit no. 2-117-
0029NGM3R) as issued by the St. Johns River Water Management District. This
permit, which expires in October of 2006, allows r a combined annual withdrawal
of 1598.7 million gallons for 2001,1.653.5 million ons for 2002,1719.2 million
gallons for 2003, 1792.2 million gallons for 2004, 18 4.4 million gallons for 2005,
and 1963.7 million gallons for 2006.
Public Potable Water Storage Facilities
The City has four (4) ground storage tanks connected to he central system as
described above. The capacity of each storage tank is identified. Table IV-B-4.
Public Distribution System
All of three of the water treatment plants are connected to the in distribution
system. This central distribution system consists of water mains rangin in size from
2 inches to 16 inches. The vast majority of the distribution system conSl s primarily
of six (6), eight (8), ten (10) and twelve (12) inch mains. The predomina material
used throughout the distribution system is PVC pipe. However, some cement

Public Potab
As previously m ntioned, the City's central potable water distribution system is
connected to seve (7) potable water wells. These wells are located on site at the
City's potable water reatment plants. The City currently has a consumptive use

protection by the St. Johns River Water]\ nagement District and the FDEP.
The Floridan "~quifer in the \XTinter Springs rea receives low to moderate recharge
from the surficial aquifer. This is due to water ble elevation differences between the
surficial aquifer and the Floridan Aquifer and t e vertical hydraulic conductivity of
the soils. The transmissi'l--ity is sufficiently high s h that most large diameter wells,
twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) inches, can be expec d to produce over 1,500 gallons
per minute (GPM) with little draw down in the we and little impact to adjacent
users. Drawdowns in the surficial aquifer are estimate to be very low, due to the
Hawthorn Formation. In order to lessen the interfere ce between wells, a five
hundred (500) foot minimum spacing between wells is mal tained. At that distance
the draw down in one well due to another will be minimal.
Public Level of Service
The central system currently treats an average of 4.193 million g ons per day of
potable water. The existing level of service for potable water dema d is calculated
by di'l--iding the volume of water treated and pumped by the City's po ulation. The
current level of service provided is estimated to be 123 gallons per cap a per day.
This amount is for residential and non-residential combined.

ER FACILITY NEEDS ANALYSIS
c.
Potable Wa r Capacity Surpluses and Deficiencies
a.
The evaluation of n essary systems to meet domestic and commercial consumptive
demand is based upon he entire system's ability to meet peak hour flow. Presently,
the ability of the City's stem to meet the consumptive demand is controlled by the
maximum permitted pum 'ng capacity as limited by the City's Consumptive Use
permit from the SJR\X'MD.
The City of Winter Springs's ntral system is currently providing 4.193 MGD,
average daily flow. The system n s a maximum capacity of 12.0 MGD. Therefore,
there is an estimated 7.8 million gall s per day of surplus capacity, which is available
for additional connections. Therefore, e central system has the capacity to serve all
of the existing residential and non-resi tial units that are currently connected to
private systems or private wells.
To date, the City has not identified any level f service related existing deficiencies
~thin the potable water treatment and . stribution system. The Capital
Improvements Program identifies various projects cheduled to be completed \Ji1.thin
the next five years. Many of these projects represe improvements to provide for
facility upgrades or existing maintenance requirements. The City does not currently
reserve future capacity for developments other than thos agreements made prior to
the City's purchase of the utilities.
b. Future Demand Capacity
Future water demand was forecast based on City population projec . ons. The level of
service standard used in the calculation is 115 gallons per capita per
The potable water demand was projected for the years 2005 and 2010 y the City's
Engineering & Community Development department and was prepared p 'or to the
2000 Census. By 2005, the demand is projected to be 4.84 MGD, increasin to 6.01
MGD by the year 2010. As previously stated, the cumulative maximum sign
capacity of the three \VfP's is 12.0 MGD and the maximum capacity of all the . h
service pumps is 24.84 MGD. Therefore, the City's central system has the capacl '
IV-16

INFRASTRUCTURE ELEMENT
to service the projected gro'W'th. However, the City will be required to increase the
maximum permitted \vithdrawal volume when it renews the Consumptive Use
permit in 2006 in order to meet the projected demand.
A detailed list of capital projects required to meet future service demand through
fiscal year 2005-2006 and eliminate expected deficiencies is presented in the Capital
Improvements Element.
Fire Protection
In a . tion to domestic and commercial demand, the City has identified the need to
rate th water system in terms of its ability to provide fire protection. To rate the
water sys m in terms of fire protection, the City has embraced the fire protection
standards the NFP A (National Fire Protection Association) and the ISO
(Insurance Se rices Office).
Recommended re protection level of service standards for each land use
designation has 0 en established. A tiered approach is applied to meet fire
protection level of se rice (LOS) standards.
In order to identify area: of possible deficiency in meeting the fire protection LOS,
fire department hydrant w test data was analyzed in selected areas of the City. To
date, only one (1) deficiency xists in the system and it shall be eliminated by the end
of 2002 when the S.R. 434 2" water main from Spine Road to Vistawilla is
constructed. This improvement roject is listed within the Capital Improvements
Program.
2. Performance and Condition of Exis . ng Facilities
The water quality from the Floridan aquifer is s ficiently good and only requires aeration
and cWorination treatment to prmride potable wate Additionally, Ortho-Poly-Phosphate is
added to allow for corrosion control at \IY'TP-1.
Each of the City's three water treatment plants have nsistently operated in compliance
with all criteria established by the FDEP and Departm t of Health and Rehabilitative
Senrices with respect to public water supplies.
All three of the City's water treatment plants (\X!TP-1, \X'TP-2 . \X'TP-3) were constructed
in 1972. Each plant continues to be operated and maintained in ood operating condition.
Repairs and/or upgrades to each plant are performed as require on an individual basis.
Each plant should have a minimum remaining useful life of 50 years.
a. Distribution System Performance
Overall, the performance of the distribution system is
maintenance is performed.

b. Public Well Performance
There is a slight reduction in pumping volumes when the water level drops in the
wells. Wells are rotated and consolidated daily by operating personnel.
3.
Potable Water Facility Replacement, Expansion and New Facility Siting
Reco nded capital projects to overcome existing deficiencies in water transmission, and
to provid system capacity needed for projected growth, are included in the Capital
Improveme Schedule. iill of the City's water treatment plants are programmed for
improvement ring the short term planning horizon. There are also several line extensions
programmed du g the short term planning horizon.
a.
Future wells sh d be between twelve (12) and twenty-four (24) inches in diameter
and be cased appr " ately 150 feet deep and be open from 150 to around 400 feet
to produce at least , 00 GPM. Wells in the south can be expected to require 300 to
350 feet of casing bec se of the soft nature of the limestone. The wells should be
spaced at least five hun ed (500) feet apart to minimize draw down impacts on the
other wells. The City antic' ates construction a new well to be located at WTP-l in
the near future.
