Johnson Engineering reports Lee County NPDES annual filing; new permit anticipated
Summary
Johnson Engineering presented the Lee County NPDES Permit FLS000035-004 Cycle 4 Year 7 Annual Report, which Lee County approved and will submit to FDEP before the Nov. 1, 2024 deadline; staff were told to continue into Year 8 pending issuance of a new permit.
Mark Zordan presented the Lee County NPDES Permit FLS000035-004 Cycle 4 Year 7 Annual Report and said Lee County reviewed and approved it; the report will be submitted to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection before the Nov. 1, 2024 deadline. Zordan told the Board that a new permit is anticipated this fall but no issuance date is known, so the district was instructed to continue into Year 8 for reporting purposes.
Staff and the Board discussed water-sampling requirements that might change under a new permit; District Manager Chesley "Chuck" Adams said stormwater ponds are intended to catch and retain runoff and are not held to the same standard as natural lakes. Johnson Engineering will continue bi-monthly engagement with Lee County NPDES and forward minutes to the District Manager to keep staff apprised.
