Fiscal Year 2009 Final Budget Adjustment for Ratification Purpose To request ratification of the action taken by the Governing Board on September 30, 2008 to change the Basin's budget in response to direction received from Governor Charlie Crist in his budget approval letter. Background The District received a budget approval letter from Governor Charlie Crist dated September 16, 2008. Governor Crist indicated that he had reviewed and approved the District's annual budget for fiscal year (FY) 2009, with the exception of redirecting all water management districts' dollars proposed for salary increases to expedite projects. Summary Agenda October 16, 2008 Withlacoochee River Basin Board Page 2 of 6 He asked that emphasis be placed on expediting capital projects that are result oriented and implementable, while also meeting the planned long-term needs of the regions. Governor Crist directed that this measure be taken as a proactive strategy to promote economic stimulus for Florida. In response to Governor Crist's direction, the Governing Board at its meeting on September 30, 2008, approved the redirection of budgeted dollars that had been associated with proposed merit increases to a list of identified projects for inclusion in the final District budget that was adopted at the second and final public hearing held on September 30, 2008, at 5:01 p.m., with the individual projects selected to receive redirected Basin dollars to be ratified by the respective Basin Boards in October 2008. A list of projects to which the redirected budgeted funds were allocated by the Governing Board for the Basin Board's ratification and Governor Crist's letter are attached as exhibits for this item. For the Withlacoochee River Basin, the FY2009 budget adopted by this Basin included $29,481 for proposed merit increases: $17,414 funded from ad valorem based sources and $12,067 funded from the Save Our Rivers Program (State Water Management Lands Trust Fund). The Governing Board approved the allocation of the $17,414 in ad valorem based funding to the Dade City Reclaimed Water Project and the $12,067 in Save Our Rivers funding to the Green Swamp West project for additional costs related to the pavilion construction on District lands. These projects will be expedited during FY2009. Staff Recommendation: See Exhibit 2 To ratify the Governing Board's action to redirect $29,481 of budgeted dollars that had been allocated for proposed merit increases to the Dade City Reclaimed Water Project for $17,414 and to the Save Our Rivers Green Swamp West project for $12,067.

Adjournment Ron Oakley **Information Items** The item(s) listed below are for the Board's information, intended to keep the Board apprised of completed projects, cancelled projects, and projects that have executed contracts and are ready to begin. The item(s) do not require Board action at this time. Formal presentations are not planned, but staff will make presentations and/or answer questions at the next Board meeting, if requested. 1. Agreement with Fletcher Marine, Inc. for the Sale of Shell Material from the Lake Panasoffkee Restoration Project (This item was approved by the Governing Board at its September meeting) This is to inform the Withlacoochee River Basin Board of the Governing Board entering into an agreement with Fletcher Marine, Inc. (FMI) to allow FMI to sell a limited amount of shell material deposited at the upland spoil disposal area of the Lake Panasoffkee Restoration Project in order to compensate FMI for inflated fuel and energy costs incurred over the course of the Project. The Legislature passed Chapter 98-69, Laws of Florida, creating the Lake Panasoffkee Restoration Council (Council). The final restoration plan recommended by the Council in its 2003 Report to the Legislature is comprised of four steps. Step 1 of the plan, the Coleman Landing Pilot Dredging Project, was completed in December 2000. Steps 2 and 3 of the plan (the Project) constitute the full-scale in-lake restoration effort, and is scheduled to be complete in early October. Step 4, the cleanout of the residential canals along the western shoreline of Lake Panasoffkee was completed by Sumter County in June 2008. The District advertised the dredging contract for the Project in July 2003. Since the contract award in August 2003, fuel costs have dramatically escalated from $0.98 per gallon in August 2003 to as high as $4.16 in July 2008. In bidding the project, the District's dredging contractor estimated fuel costs would increase at a rate of ten percent a year over the life of the Project. Although compensation for inflated fuel costs is beyond the terms and conditions of the contract agreement, the Council did recommend, and the Withlacoochee River Basin Board and Governing Board did approve, a one time fuel adjustment in the amount of $322,932 for inflated fuel and energy costs up through April 2006. Since April 2006, FMI, the dredging subcontractor for the Project, has incurred an additional $1,086,989 in inflated fuel costs through September 16, 2008. In its 2007 Report to the Legislature, the Council indicated its desire to provide additional compensation for fuel costs to the contractor, and requested an additional $1,000,000 for fuel and energy adjustments in the State’s 2008 budget; however, funds were not appropriated. FMI is a subcontractor to Subaqueous Services, LLC, the prime contractor for the Project. The District contracted directly with FMI for compensation of inflated fuel and energy costs, rather than contracting with Subaqueous Services, LLC. This arrangement was agreeable to both Subaqueous Services, LLC and FMI. Summary Agenda October 16, 2008 Withlacoochee River Basin Board Page 4 of 6 The agreement allows FMI five years to sell shell material at a recognized $2.60 per cubic yard (in-place volume) of material sold. The agreement allows FMI to remove up to 461,538 cubic yards of shell material within the five year time frame.

This report meets the Federal Clean Water Act reporting requirements; more importantly, it presents a comprehensive analysis of the quality of our waters. This report would not be possible without the monitoring efforts of organizations throughout the state, including state and local governments, universities, and volunteer groups who agree that our waters are a central part of our state’s culture, heritage, and way of life. In Florida, monitoring efforts at all levels result in substantially more monitoring stations and water quality data than most other states in the nation. These water quality data are used annually for the assessment of waterbody health by means of a comprehensive approach. Hundreds of assessments of individual waterbodies are conducted each year. Additionally, as part of this report, a statewide water quality condition is presented using an unbiased random monitoring design. These efforts allow us to understand the state’s water conditions, make decisions that further enhance our waterways, and focus our efforts on addressing problems.

The Cooperative Aquatic Plant Control Program administered by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) in Florida’s public waters involves complex operational and financial interactions between state, federal and local governments as well as private sector companies. FWC’s aquatic plant management program mission is to reduce negative impacts from invasive nonindigenous plants like water hyacinth, water lettuce and hydrilla to conserve the multiple uses and functions of public lakes and rivers. Invasive plants infest 96% of Florida’s 451 public waters inventoried in 2013 that comprise 1.26 million acres of fresh water. Once established, eradicating invasive plants is difficult or impossible and very expensive; therefore, continuous maintenance is critical to keep invasive plants at low levels to

The Cooperative Aquatic Plant Control Program (Cooperative Program) administered by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) in the state’s public lakes and rivers involves complex operational and financial interactions between state, federal and local governments as well as private sector companies. The FWC has entered into 45 financial agreements (including contracts, task assignments, cooperative agreements, and purchase orders) with the aforementioned entities. The FWC receives some federal funding through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the USACE directly funds and controls aquatic plants, employing USACE management crews in much of the St. Johns River and its tributaries. Since all of the public waters managed by the USACE are eligible for state funding through the Cooperative Program, and since the FWC occasionally assists in control operations in these waters, FWC staff monitors plant populations and control efforts and includes USACE activities in this report.
