FLORIDAN AQUIFER PLANT ISSUES
é Floridan Aquifers can be used for both Aquifer Storage and Recovery and source water
é Potential increased energy costs associated with lifting water and impacts to adjacent users
é Potential for decline in water quality over time
~ Some pumping wells become saltier (up-coning of
more saline water from below or laterally along coast) ~~ Membrane design and periodic replacement ~ Blending with Surficial Aquifer water
é Estimated 125% of raw water to meet treated water demands
@ Concentrate disposal via deep injection well
