'. The Sduth Seminole &. North Orange County Wastewater
Transmission Authority, an existing Independent Special District,
owns and operates an untreated wastewater transmission system
located.in portions of .Seminole County, Orange County, the Cities
of Casselberry, Winter park, and the City of Maitland. The
Authority provides such transmission service to Seminole County,
The Cities of Maitland, Casselberry and Winter Park and can
provide service to the City. of Winter Springs.
(~)
The Transmission System consists of nineteen (19) pumping
stations and approximately thirty (30) miles of pipeline ranging
in size from. eight (8) inches to forty-eight(48) inches. The
total transmission system of piping has a total hydraulic
capacity, under peak conditions, of more than forty (40) million
gallons per day. The current load on the system averages
approximately eleven (11) million gallons per day.
The Wastewater. Transmission Authority was created by an Act
of the Florida Legislature in 1978 and began its design work in
the spring'of 1979. . Design was completed, a Construction Grant
was obtained from the Environmental Protection Agency, and Bond
Anticipation Notes were issued' during 1981, with construction on
the system beginning in February 1982. Initial flows into the
. system were begun in February 1983 and the total system completed
in the fall of 1983. Bond Anticipation. Notes issued in December
1981 were replaced by Sewer Revenue Bonds in December 1983 and
replaced at lower interest rates with bond issues in 1986 and
1993.
During the. next ten years we do not anticipate any specific
identifiable replacement of these facilities, but as equipment
fails or becomes overloaded, it will be replaced out of current
reserve funds or at the' cost of a developer who may be imposing
such overload of the system~ Our current anticipation as to
capacity and demand remains at the forty (40) million gallons
plus and ultimate capacity with a probable average demand between
fifteen (15) to twenty (20) million gallons per day. .
