PROJECT:
N/A

 

PURPOSE: The property owner, Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, is renovating an existing facility to expand its microelectronics manufacturing capabilities at 2787 S Orange Blossom Trail, Apopka, Florida 32703. Water and wastewater capital charges for the property were determined based on flow estimates pursuant to subsections 37-5(b)(4)b and 37-5(b)(5)b, respectively, of the Orange County Code. 

The property owner has submitted a signed and sealed engineering study estimating water and wastewater flows and has agreed to enter into a Flow Monitoring Agreement with the Utilities Department. 

The agreement provides for an initial 10-year period to monitor the water usage and wastewater discharges from the facility. The County may extend the monitoring period in the event of a material breach by the property owner, as described in the agreement. During the term of the agreement, a monthly monitoring fee will be assessed, and additional capital charges will be levied if the six-month average water or wastewater flow exceeds the signed and sealed engineering estimate at any time. 

The County Attorney’s Office and Risk Management Division reviewed the agreement and find it acceptable as to form. Utilities Department staff recommends approval.
