The South-Central potable water system has a permitted capacity of 88.6 million gallons per day (MGD) of flow, as provided by the County. The system’s maximum flow is 68.9 MGD and its available treatment capacity is 19.7 MGD. As reported in the 2018 City of Tampa Master Plan Report – Potable Water Master Plan, the David L.
