STANDARD FORM 330 (REV. 8/2016) PAGE 39 <br />Drainage swale and control structure <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />In 2011, FDEP issued the new Third Term NPDES MS4 Permits, which included requirements for pro-actively addressing TMDLs. <br />In Broward County there were two new TMDLs: Pompano Canal (nutrient TMDL) and North Fork Snake Creek (WBID 3279A, <br />bacteria TMDL). E Sciences provided technical data and senior review of the Monitoring Report for the Pompano Canal TMDL, <br />which was successfully “de-listed”. For WBID 3279A E Sciences developed a Walk the Roadway protocol accepted by FDEP for <br />the single FDOT road in the WBID. FDEP approved FDOT’s BPCP with no comments; it is noted that it was the first BPCP to be <br />approved by FDEP. <br /> <br />With issuance of the new Fourth Term NPDES MS4 permit in January <br />2018, Broward County has 11 bacteria TMDLs and Palm Beach County <br />three TMDLs to be addressed. E Sciences is working closely with FDOT <br />to meet the permit requirements for prioritized TMDLs as well as assist <br />other co-permittees on FDOT’s behalf as requested. The first steps for the <br />prioritized TMDLs (one in each county) was to georeference the entire <br />stormwater system, map the drainage basins, coordinate with the <br />maintenance staff for maintenance records, review land uses adjacent to <br />FDOT’s right-of-way, and calculate pollutant loads. The next steps are to <br />team with stakeholders to map and perform field reconnaissance on areas <br />of concern. The final step will be to compile the information into a BPCP. <br /> <br />Also new with the Fourth Term NPDES MS4 permit, FDEP is requiring all permittees submit individual Assessment Programs to <br />assess whether the Stormwater Management Plans each co-permittee developed is effective, based on monitoring data and/or <br />pollutant loading. E Sciences assisted several municipalities, including the City of Fort Lauderdale and the FDOT prepare their <br />Assessment Program. The City of Fort Lauderdale’s and FDOT’s Assessment Programs were approved with no comments. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Contract Budget/Fees: $6,857,273 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />25.
