2. The road will traverse a recharge area
Most of the proposed roadway East of 34th Street is through a “closed basin” that has no surface outlet.
The paved 24th Avenue extension will significantly reduce the area where storm water now collects and eventually seeps into the ground.

Normal conditions

10. Sinkhole Pond…
Moderate rainfall

11. Flooding from Sinkhole Pond after heavy rainfall

13. CLOSED BASIN...
Any runoff within proposed right of way will have to be stored in a retention basin until the water volume infiltrates into the ground or is lost to evapotranspiration.

14. In addition to the roadway
In addition to the roadway... retention ponds may be necessary within the NATL

100 year storm
5 year storm
1 year storm

15. In closed basins water quality entering the Floridan Aquifer is a concern...
