North Airport Infrastructure Assessment

Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Assessment Findings The Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) data and future land use data provided by Hillsborough County for the North Airport redevelopment area shows a 440 person increase in population from 2015 to 2045. The Hillsborough County Northwest water system currently has 25.7 MGD of available permit capacity and the City of Tampa David L. Tippin WTP has 39 MGD of available permit capacity to support the anticipated 0.13 MGD estimated potable water demand increase. Although both City of Tampa and Hillsborough County provide potable water, Hillsborough County owns and maintains all the public sewer infrastructure. The Hillsborough County Northwest Regional WRF currently has 12.95 MGD of available permit capacity to support the anticipated 0.09 MGD increase in wastewater flow if needed. This capacity analysis is based on available permitted capacities of the water and wastewater treatment facilities, no hydraulic capacity analysis of water/sewer transmission mains was completed. Based on the water and wastewater infrastructure assessment completed for the North Airport Redevelopment Area, potable water is available to all redevelopment projects identified in Figure 5 of the report except for the two sites along Citrus Park Lake that will need water transmission main extensions. Sewer collection is available for all redevelopment project sites except the two projects along Anderson Road and the project on Johns Road, which have septic systems. Further evaluation of the County’s and City of Tampa’s potable water, sewer, and septic systems need to be studied prior redevelopment. The following action items have been identified for the North Airport Redevelopment Area: • Coordination between the County and City of Tampa utility departments to identify capacity issues in the potable water and sewer collection/transmission systems • Study existing potable water hydraulic model to determine pipe capacity and sizing needs of future developments with new water demands • Study existing wastewater collection, transmission, and wastewater treatment plant capacity to determine if the increased wastewater flow will affect the system • Extend sewer collection/transmission system to the redevelopment projects along Anderson Road and Johns Road to eliminate the septic sewer system • Extend potable water transmission mains to the redevelopment projects along Citrus Park Lake • Provide water and sewer service connection along street areas that are not currently served to promote redevelopment: • Hoover Blvd area was identified as an area that the County will need to coordinate water transmission main extension • Anderson Road and Benjamin Road were areas identified as areas the County will need to coordinate sewer collection/transmission system extensions to eliminate septic to sewer systems Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Assessment Findings
