Pilot Project Design Report and Environmental Impact Statement
Final - October 2004
This report contains a Final Pilot Project Design Report (PPDR) followed by a Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) associated with the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP). It references three CERP pilot projects using the Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) technology -- the Lake Okeechobee ASR Pilot Project, the Hillsboro ASR Pilot Project, and the Caloosahatchee ASR Pilot Project.
The PPDR and FEIS are intended to function as a decision document for engineering options for the field pilot tests recommended by the Central and Southern Florida Project Restudy Report (July 1999), and authorized in the Water Resources Development Acts (WRDA) of 1999 and 2000. These tests are required, along with other evaluations, before the co-sponsors of the CERP program, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) can determine the feasibility of full-scale implementation of ASR technology proposed in the CERP.
