DOCTOR'S LAKE SEPTIC TO CENTRALIZED SEWER SYSTEM
CONVERSION IN-FILL POLICY
December 17, 2019
BACKGROUND:
The St.Johns River Water Management District(District)approached the staff of the Clay County Utility
Authority(Authority)in May 2018,about projects to reduce or eliminate the contribution of nutrients from
septic tanks to Doctors Lake.The District's Governing Board approved Resolution 2018-03 on August 18,
2018, allocating funds for Doctors Lake nutrient reduction projects. The District and the Authority both
agree reducing nutrients in Doctors Lake will reduce the harmful impacts of blue-green algae to the
environment and the community.
The District and the Authority determined that cost-share funding will promote health, safety, and
restoration efforts tied within the Doctors Lake watershed by converting septic tanks to a centralized sanitary
sewer system. The District requested the Authority manage a project(s) that would help residents to
voluntarily abandon the residential septic systems and connect to the Authority's centralized sanitary sewer
system.
Objectives:
to
Establish a specific mechanism to fund the extensions of the Authority's sanitary sewer system to provide
service to residential neighborhoods within the Doctors Lake watershed.
The District and the Authority mutually seek to eliminate,to the most reasonable extent possible,nutrients
from human wastewater entering the Doctors Lake watershed.
In order to remove nutrients from human wastewater within the Doctors Lake watershed,the District and
Authority will construct infrastructure to collect and convey wastewater to the Authority's Advanced
Wastewater Treatment(AWT)facilities.
The District and Authority hereby establishes a centralized wastewater collection system connection goal of
50% of the active residential lots on any given street.
Definitions:
Board of Supervisors: The seven supervisors appointed by the Governor of the State of Florida or the Clay
