STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
PLAN EVALUATION
City Of Ocoee
2.1 OVERALL EVALUATION
The City of Ocoee developed the Integrated Stormwater Management Plan (ISMP) in
1992-1993 as a means of providing an integrated approach to delivering stormwater
management services to the citizens of Ocoee and complying with the requirements of
EPA's evolving Stormwater NPDES Permitting Program relative to the preparation of a
a. Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP). The intent of the ISMP was to provide a
summary of current City stormwater management activities organized in a manner
generally consistent with EPA's intent and direction as expressed in the Final Rule
(November 1990).
2.1.1 Objectives of the Program
The primary objective of the Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP) prepared
pursuant to the MS4(Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems) Permit application
requirements, is to reduce annual and seasonal pollutant loads discharged to
receiving waters to the maximum extent practicable. This objective will be met in
the SWMP through the use of a comprehensive planning process, provision of
'• opportunities for public participation, continuing intergovernmental coordination
activities and operation of a program for effective stormwater controls and
management practices. Key features that this plan must address include:
• Structural, non-structural and source control measures to reduce pollutants
contained within runoff from commercial and residential areas.
• Programs to detect and remove illicit discharges and improper disposal of
non-stormwater substances from the MS4's storm sewer systems.
• Programs to monitor and control pollutants in stormwater discharges from
municipal industrial activities such as landfills and hazardous waste
facilities.
City of Ocoee Page 2-1
Orange County,Honda MS4 Permit No.F[5000011 September 26.2000
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
• Programs to implement and maintain structural and non-structural best
management practices to reduce pollutant loadings from construction sites.
The City's SWMP is intended to provide an integrated approach of implementing
stormwater management services for the citizens of Ocoee.
2.1.2 Major Findings
The City of Ocoee, as part of the University of Florida's LAKEWATCH Program, _.
has accumulated lake water quality data for a period of record from July of 1992
to the present, for several lakes within the limits of the City of Ocoee. The water
quality data collected (total phosphorus, total nitrogen, chlorophyll a and secci —
depth) allow the City of Ocoee to determine the Trophic State Index (TSI) for each
year in order to:
a. Establish trends (e.g., degraded water quality); and
b. Focus structural and non-structural capital improvements to those lakes
which indicate fair to poor water quality standards.
The water quality data and TSI for several lakes within the City of Ocoee have
served as a basis for developing stormwater management master plans and drainage
basin studies.
2.1.3 Major Accomplishments
Many of the tasks required by the NPDES MS4 Program have been part of the
City's stormwater management and maintenance program for many years. The
following are some of the major accomplishments that are directly or indirectly
required through the NPDES program:
• During September 1994, the City of Ocoee finalized the Drainage
Maintenance Program in order to address hydraulic conveyance capacity,
flood protection, water quality protection, and erosion prevention. The
maintenance program also identified the City's drainage facilities (e.g., —
canals, drainage ditches and swales, stormwater ponds, etc.).
• During January 1996 to the present, the City of Ocoee completed five (5) —
drainage basin studies which identified structural and non-structural
improvements to address flood protection, water quality, and
localized/nuisance flooding for eight (8) of the sixteen (16)drainage basins
within the City of Ocoee.
City of Ocoee Page 2-2
Orange County,Florida MS4 Permit No.F1S00001I September 2o,200a
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY of OCOEE
• During March 1996, the City of Ocoee completed a Drainage Problem Area
Report which established a city-wide capital improvements program to
address flood protection, water quality, and localized/nuisance flooding.
• During 1996, the City of Ocoee increased the stormwater utility fee in
order to expand the Drainage Maintenance Program with respect to
additional equipment and staffing and fund various capital stormwater
improvement programs.
• From August 1996 to the present, the City of Ocoee has constructed
approximately $440,000.00 in stormwater capital improvement projects.
2.1.4 Overall Program Strengths/Weaknesses
Ocoee's SWMP generally worked well during Permit Year Four. The following
are a few key strengths and weaknesses.
Program Strengths
• Enhanced inspection and maintenance programs for stormwater facilities.
• Improved intergovernmental coordination with adjacent municipalities and
regional/state agencies.
• Enhanced training of staff related to stormwater issues.
• Erosion and sediment control programs are consistent with State and
Federal requirements.
Program Weaknesses
• Coordinated record keeping needs refinement.
• Public education on stormwater issues; particularly pesticides/ herbicides/
fertilizers needs to be enhanced and increased in frequency.
• Spill prevention coordination needs to be enhanced.

YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
2.1.5 Future Direction of Program
With the completion of the drainage basin studies and the capital improvement
program, the City of Ocoee will continue to implement and construct stormwater
projects that address flood protection and water quality. These projects will meet
and/or exceed the requirements of the NPDES Program.
2.2 SUMMARY OF ELEMENTS
A summary table (Table 2-7) of the appropriate SWMP (Storm Water Management
Program) annual activities has been prepared by the City of Ocoee which documents in a
concise form the program activities and Ocoee's compliance status with quantifiable permit
requirements. Administrative elements of the stormwater management programs are
discussed in the narrative section presented in Section 3 (Narrative Report).

Orange County,Florida MS4 Permit Na FLS000011 September26,1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
3.1.2 Element Activities
The City of Ocoee (Public Works Department) has been involved in a long-term continuing
operations and maintenance program for public stormwater management facilities, historically
focused on flood prevention and control. Some of the elements of this program have already
been developed and are in use. The City's current structural controls inventory is summarized
in the following table:
Total
Structural Controls Number
Stormwater Treatment Ponds (Public) 54
Stormwater Treatment Ponds (Private) 93
Drainage Wells 5
Stormwater Pump Stations 0
Major Drainage Ditches 3.5 miles
Other Drainage Ditches 2.8 miles
.. Roadside Ditches 7.8 miles
Roadside Swales 15.5 miles
a. Activities Completed
(1) Conducted inspections of structural controls.
(2) Maintenance of structural controls associated with the City's primary conveyance
system consists of major ditches, lake-to-lake connections (e.g., Lakes Moxie and
Peach) and other hydraulic conveyance sections. Maintenance activities included:
City of Ocoee Page 3-3
Orange County,Florida MS4 Permit No.FIs00001I September 26. 1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
• Ditch Bank Mowing
• Ditch Section Maintenance
• Ditch Bank Erosion Control
• Closed Conduit Maintenance `
• Maintenance of Drainage Wells
(3) Maintenance of 54 publicly-owned stormwater management ponds serving mostly
residential developments. The City of Ocoee has contracted out (Groundtek of
Central Florida, Inc.) typical lawn maintenance activities of the City ponds which
City staff supplements non-lawn maintenance activities. Groundtek provides the City
of Ocoee with weekly status reports summarizing the activities conducted and the
pond number. Maintenance activities included:
• Inspection to determine the Maintenance and Operating Condition of the
stormwater pond and control structure ..
• Mowing of side slopes and maintenance berms
• Bank Erosion Control
• Chemical application for Weed Control (along fences only) _.
• Skimmer Maintenance
• Removing Obstructions Associated with Control Structures
• Fencing Installation and Repairs
• Junk Removal
• Record Keeping for Maintenance and Rehabilitation Reports
• Completed Standardized Inspection Forms for Wet/Dry Retention/Detention
Facilities (refer to Appendix"A" for sample Inspection Forms).
(4) Maintenance of approximately 6.3 miles of major drainage ditches and other
conveyance ditches that provide primary conveyance within the Northwest Ditch,
Starke Lake and Lake Lotta drainage basins. The City of Ocoee has dedicated one _
(1) crew of two (2) full-time employees to perform this task. The two (2) man crew
is equipped with a hydraulic excavator and dump truck capable of maintaining the
6.3 miles of major and other conveyance ditches within the City limits on a 5-week
cycle (10 times annually).
(5) Periodic maintenance of culverts, inlets and catch basins associated with the primary -
conveyance system on an as needed basis. The total number of city-wide culverts,
inlets and catch basins requiring sediment, litter and debris removal during the permit
year is unknown. Likewise, the recommended frequency for removal of sediment,
litter and debris is highly variable. However, during routine maintenance of ponds
City of Ocoee Page 3-4
Orange county.Florida A1S4 Permit No.FLS0000I I September 26. 1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
and ditches, the City's drainage maintenance crew will inspect the culverts, inlets and
catch basins and perform the necessary maintenance if required.
(6) Maintained an internal record system (via daily logs) to track inspection and
maintenance activities performed during Permit Year 4 (April 1, 1999 to March 31,
2000). After submittal of the Part 2 NPDES application, the City of Ocoee began
preparing/developing a formal Drainage Maintenance Program in order to address
hydraulic conveyance capacity, flood protection, water quality protection, and
erosion prevention. Upon completion of the Engineering Report (prepared by
Professional Engineering Consultants, Inc., dated September 1994), the Maintenance
Program established the following in order for City staff to maintain an internal
record keeping system:
• Visually inspected and identified all major and minor drainage ditches, roadside
swales and ditches, primary culverts and stormwater ponds (public and private)
within the City of Ocoee;
• Tabulated the total linear feet of city-maintained ditches and swales and the
total number of city-maintained ponds; and
• Developed city-wide maps delineating ditches, swales, primary culverts,
stormwater ponds, and drainage easements/rights-of-way.
(7) Periodic inspection of the five(5) drainage wells associated with Starke Lake, Spring
Lake, Lake Lilly, and Lake Johio. City staff inspected the performance of the
drainage wells before and after the wet season, approximately June and October.
(8) Four(4) employees with the City of Ocoee's Public Works Department (Stormwater
_ Drainage Maintenance Section) received certification as stormwater technicians
through the "Florida Water and Pollution Control Operators Association
(FWPCOA)". Currently, the FWPCOA has established a voluntary program for
operators to receive a "State Stormwater Operator Certification." The goal of the
FWPCOA Certification Board is to educate municipalities regarding the components
of maintenance of a stormwater management system. As part of the short course and
examination, the FWPCOA has prepared textbooks (manuals) for Level "A", "B",
and "C" certifications. Mr. Buddy Elmore (Operating and Stormwater Supervisor)
has received certification as a Level "A" Stormwater Technician and Level "C"
Industrial Pre-Treatment Technician; Mr. Ken Bruce (Equipment Operator II) has
received certification as a Level "B" Stormwater Technician; Mr. Larry Miller
(Equipment Operator II) has received certification as a Level "B" Stormwater
City of Ocoee Page 3-5

YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
Technician; and Mr. Curtis Love(Equipment Operator I) as a Level "C" Stormwater
Technician.
(9) Assessed the accomplishments of the inspection and maintenance program as
compared to the EPA target goals outlined in Table ILA.I.b of the MS4 permit (Part
II, pages 7 through 15).
(10)Developed an inventory of privately owned stormwater management facilities based
on the previously mentioned City of Ocoee Drainage Maintenance Program
completed during September 1994 and the completed drainage basin studies. Based
on the 1994 Engineering Report, the total number of privately maintained
stormwater ponds within the City of Ocoee was 86. As of the end of Permit Year �.
4, the number of privately maintained stormwater and control structures that
discharge into the MS4s or Waters of the United States was approximately 95.
b. Activities in Progress
Routine maintenance activities which are conducted on a continuing basis, in both
proactive and reactive postures, include:
(1) Inspections of structural controls to determine maintenance needs.
(2) Proactive and reactive cleaning activities of stormwater facilities to remove collected
pollutants and maintain hydraulic capacity.
(3) Periodic maintenance of primary culverts, inlets and catch basins to control velocities
and remove collected pollutants.
(4) Update the inventory needs with respect to routine and periodic maintenance and _
revise/update the existing facilities inventory (tables and maps).
(5) Implement a computer database and a work order program in order to track actual
productivity for the identified maintenance activities, store this information in a
computer database and develop/publish meaningful tracking reports.
(6) Maintenance of record keeping systems to track inspection and maintenance activities
performed during the duration of the NPDES MS4 Permit.
City of Ocoee Page 3-6

YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
(7) Annual assessment of the accomplishments of the inspection and maintenance
program as compared to the EPA target goals outlined in Table ILA.1.6 on pages
7 through 15 of the MS4 permit.
(8) Analyze actual productivity measures for selected activities (e.g., average daily
production rates), prepare maintenance frequency recommendations and identify
priorities in both routine and remedial maintenance activities.
(9) Ongoing identification and inventory of privately owned stormwater facilities.
(10)During Fiscal Year 2000/2001 the City of Ocoee will aquire a vacuum truck to
improve their maintenance capabilities for inlets and storm sewer systems.
3.1.3 General Element Discussion
a. Element Deficiencies
(1) Maintain an internal record keeping system to track inspections and maintenance
activities (Part IILA.I, page 29, Box I): Even though the City of Ocoee has
identified and mapped all ditches, swales, ponds and culverts, the Public Works
Department does not keep track of their activities through a formal work order
program, thereby making it difficult to track inspection and maintenance activities.
Currently, the Public Works Department maintains a daily log of their activities,
therefore it is possible, though time consuming, to track inspection and maintenance
activities. The City of Ocoee purchased a public works operations software package
entitled "QQUEST" during the spring of 1998. Due to lack of manpower the
"QQUEST" program will not be implemented until the Fall of 2000.
b. Results of Activities
(1) Approximately 6.3 miles of major drainage ditches and other conveyance ditches
maintained 10 times annually (5-week intervals).
(2) Fifty-four(54) stormwater management ponds maintained 26 times annually(2-week
intervals).
(3) Periodic maintenance and repairs to approximately fifty (50) primary system culverts.
City of Ocoee Page 3-7

(4) Mr. James "Buddy" Elmore, Public Works (Operating and Stormwater) Supervisor,
received his certification as a Level "C" Industrial Pre-Treatment Technician from
the Florida Water and Pollution Control Operators Association (FWPCOA).
(5) Mr. Larry Miller, Equipment Operator II, received his certification as a Level "B"
Stormwater Technician from the Florida Water and Pollution Control Operators
Association (FWPCOA).
(6) Mr. Curtis Love, Equipment Operator I, received his certification as a Level "C"
Stormwater Technician from the Florida Water and Pollution Control Operators

o Status: In Compliance
3.1.5 Assessment of Strengths and Weaknesses
a. Strengths
(1) Improve water quality through proper erosion control and removal of litter, debris,
and sediments.
City of Ocoee Page 3-8
Orange County,Florida MS4 Permit No.FLS000011 September 26, 1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
(2) Reduce pollutant loadings to the City's MS4s and/or Waters of the United States
through proper maintenance of stormwater management facilities.
(3) Improve reporting/tracking procedures in order to justify staffing and equipment
requirements during budget discussions.
h. Weaknesses
(1) The City of Ocoee's current weakness is the lack of a formal work order program in
order to effectively track inspections and maintenance activities. As previously
discussed in Section 3.L3.a.(1), the City of Ocoee has purchased the necessary
hardware and software during Fiscal Year 1997/1998 in order to implement a work
order program/database.
3.1.6 Assessment of Controls
The current staffing and equipment associated with the City of Ocoee's Drainage Maintenance
Program are adequate to meet the requirements of the NPDES Program (Part 'ILA.I.) and
the City's Integrated Stornnvater Management Plan (ISMP).

3.2 DEVELOPMENT PLANNING PROCEDURES
3.2.1 Objective
The objective of this SWMP element is to provide a proactive method for controlling
discharges from areas of new development and significant redevelopment in the City of
Ocoee. The City of Ocoee Comprehensive Plan has been prepared in accordance with
Chapter 162, Part II, Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land Development
Regulation Act, F.S., and Rule 9J-5, Minimum Criteria for Review of Local Government
Comprehensive Plans and Determination of Compliance, F.A.C. Relative to the SWMP, the
drainage element of the Comprehensive Plan (adopted on September 18, 1991) provides
City of Ocoee Page 3-9
Orange County.Florida MMS4 Penn¢No.FLS0000I I September 26.1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
planning tools to implement regulations pertaining to stormwater quality and quantity. The
City of Ocoee has undertaken its comprehensive stormwater planning process with the
following goal: Preserve the water quality of the lakes in the City of Ocoee; protect the
public from adverse flooding effects due to stornnvater runoff,'and manage the surface water
collection, conveyance and storage systems to ensure public health, safety and welfare. In
order to address this goal, the City of Ocoee established the following objectives:
Objective I
The City shall protect the water quality of City lakes through the implementation of
performance standards described in 62-25 Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.) and
design standards for the 25-year, 24-hour storm event.
Objective 2
The City shall provide for the elimination of flooding effects resulting from the
concentration of stormwater runoff due to rising water in new and existing
development through the adoption of Levels of Service (LOS) standards for drainage '-
facilities. Basin studies for adoption of LOS standards shall be completed by 1992.
Objective 3
Existing facility deficiencies will be identified and corrected on a priority basis. The
public health and safety shall be the foremost priority. a
Objective 4
The City will design a stormwater management program sufficient to accommodate
projected demand through the year 2010.
Objective 5
The City shall properly manage systems to ensure that they are correctly designed,
installed and maintained.
3.2.2 Element Activities
Planning activities which affect flood control and water quality management are conducted
at different levels within the City of Ocoee to meet a variety of St. Johns River Water
City of Ocoee Page 3-10

YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
Management District and Orange County, as well as Federal (EPA, FEMA and ACOE) and
State (FDEP and FDOT) objectives, rules and regulations.
Currently, all residential, commercial and/or miscellaneous site improvements (e.g., building
additions and parking lot expansions) require formal review and approval from the City in
order to proceed with construction. Projects involving a proposed building area less than or
equal to 25,000 square feet requires review and approval through the Building Department
while projects involving building areas greater than 25,000 square feet, in addition to
residential and commercial developments, require review and approval through the
Development Review Committee(DRC). In either case, as a condition of approval, the City
requires the owner and/or developer to provide the City a copy of the approved stormwater
permit, with conditions, from the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD)
prior to the approval of the site plan, plat or building permit.
a. Activities Completed
(1) Intergovernmental coordination between the City of Ocoee, Orange County, and
adjacent municipalities (City of Apopka, City of Winter Garden, and the City of
Orlando) for planning and regulation of development activities.
`— (2) Intergovernmental coordination between the City of Ocoee, Orange County,
Regional (SJRWMD) and State (FDEP and FDOT) agencies for planning and
coordination of water quality management activities.
The City of Ocoee and their stormwater consultant (Professional Engineering
Consultants, Inc.) have been actively involved in monthly meetings sponsored by the
St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) and attended by Orange
County, FDOT, FDEP, City of Orlando, South Florida Water Management District,
and the Cities of Apopka, Maitland, Eatonville, Winter Park, Winter Garden, and
Windermere. The meetings are conducted by an intergovernmental coordinator(Ms.
Nancy Christman) employed by the SJRWMD. The focus of the meetings are to
develop a partnership with local governments to identify joint stormwater projects
associated with flood protection, aquifer recharge and water quality. The projects
discussed during the "Working Group Meetings" are then brought to the attention
of the District's Governing Board and staff for use in their strategic planning and
budgeting process.
(3) The City of Ocoee completed/adopted the "Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR)"
and transmitted the document to the Department of Community Affairs(DCA) which
approved the report in November of 1999.
City of Ocoee Page 3-1 l
Orange County,Florida MS4 Permit No.FLS000011 September 26.1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
b. Activities in Progress
(1) Preparation of an updated Comprehensive Plan_ The Planning Department will
amend the City's Comprehensive Plan to be consistent with the approved Evaluation
and Appraisal Report within 12 to 18 months of the accepted evaluation and
appraisal report by DCA. The revised Comprehensive Plan will amend the drainage
element to incorporate the results of the completed drainage basin studies,
incorporate the Capital Improvement Plan, and revise/update pertinent data.
(2) Preparation of an updated Land Development Code. The Planning Department will
revise the Land Development Code to incorporate specific language regarding design -.
criteria associated with stormwater management facilities located within landlocked/
closed basins versus positive outfall basins; incorporate various water quality best
management practices; and strengthen the erosion and sediment control regulations.
The City of Ocoee selected a consultant(Berryman &Henigar) during the Spring of
1998 to assist the City staff to begin revisions to the Land Development Code.
During revisions to the Code, approximately three (3) public meetings will take place
over twelve (12) months prior to finalizing and adopting the revised Land
Development Code during Fiscal Year 2000/2001.
(3) Ongoing coordination between Orange County and its adjacent municipalities for
planning and regulation of development activities.
(4) Ongoing coordination between Orange County, the SIRWMD, FDOT, FDEP, and _
the other local governments during the monthly working group meetings to address
planning and coordination of water quality management activities/projects.
(5) Continue to employ the policies of the Local Government Comprehensive Plan(LGCP) which guide future development into those areas most able to handle it and
away from environmentally sensitive areas and flood prone areas.
(6) Preparation of an updated Comprehensive Plan (Drainage Element) and Land
Development Code.

3.2.3 General Element Discussion
a. Element Deficiencies
(1) None at the present time. The current language contained in the City of Ocoee's
Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Code prevents any development within
_ environmentally sensitive areas (wetlands); prevents any development within the 100-
year flood plain; and requires stormwater management facilities to provide peak
attenuation and water quality treatment.
h. Results of Activities
(1) On-going coordination meetings with regulatory agencies and local government to
strengthen the City's Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Code in order to
enhance programs/regulations regarding water quality, conservation areas, flood
plains, and sediment and erosion control.

3.3 ROADWAY MAINTENANCE
3.3.1 Objective
The City of Ocoee currently operates and maintains a network of public streets and roads to
_ serve the citizens of Ocoee. The City also subcontracts with consultants and contractors to
design and build roads to address current and future traffic demands (e.g., Clarke Road,
White Road, and Maguire Road). Many of these transportation facilities contain drainage
facilities intended to keep the driving surface dry and safe for public use (e.g., curb inlets,
catch basins, storm sewer pipes, roadside swales, etc.).
The objectives of this SWMP element are to:
• Operate and maintain public streets, roads and highways in a manner to
reduce the discharge of pollutants to the Maximum Extent Practicable
(MEP).
• Intercept and remove pollutants associated with roadway runoff prior to their
discharge to receiving waters.
• Maintain safe roadway surface conditions to protect motorists, pedestrians, and
public and private property.
Most of the transportation facilities designed or upgraded after the early 1980's include
stormwater attenuation and/or treatment facilities as required by the SJRWMD, as well as
FDOT and FDEP stormwater programs.
3.3.2 Element Activities
a. Activities Completed
(1) Developed and implemented a municipally-operated litter control program for roads
and streets within the City of Ocoee. As part of the maintenance of roadside swales
and ditches, the City of Ocoee staff removed all litter and debris prior to the
maintenance activities (mowing, erosion control, etc.)_
(2) Implemented a street sweeping program within the City of Ocoee. The City of
Ocoee has dedicated one (1) full-time employee to perform this task. This full-time
employee is equipped with a street sweeper, capable of street sweeping 99.4 curb
miles within the City limits on a 2-week cycle (26 times annually). The material
City of Ocoee Page 3-15
Orange County,Florida MS4 Permit No.FLS0000 I1 September 26, 1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
collected by the street sweeper is temporarily stored at the City of Ocoee's
wastewater treatment plant on A.D. Mims Road and eventually hauled to a Class Ill
landfill (private) on Keene Road.
The street sweeper is also equipped with a vacuum device to remove sediment and
debris from curb inlets and catch basins associated with the secondary conveyance
systems. The street sweeping program focuses on removing sediment and debris
from inlets that have a direct discharge to City lakes (Waters of the United States)
on a 2-week cycle and inlets that discharge to stormwater ponds on a 4-week cycle.
(3) Maintenance of approximately 15.5 miles of roadside swales that provide secondary
conveyance associated with stormwater runoff within City rights-of-way. The City
of Ocoee has dedicated one(1) Poll-time employee to perform this task. This full-
time employee is equipped with a bush hog and a weed eater, capable of maintaining
the 15.5 miles of roadside swales within the City limits at 4-week intervals (12 times
annually).
(4) Maintenance of approximately 7.8 miles of roadside ditches that provide secondary
conveyance associated with stormwater runoff within City rights-of-way. The City
of Ocoee has dedicated one (I) fill-time employee to perform this task. This full-
time employee is equipped with a tractor mounted side-arm mower and a weed eater,
capable of maintaining the 7.8 miles of roadside ditches within the City limits at 4-
week intervals (12 times annually).
(5) Repaired eroded areas (regraded and sodded) within the 45 miles of City rights-of-
way on an as-needed basis in order to prevent erosion and reduce sediment loading
to Waters of the United States and/or stormwater ponds.
h. Activities in Progress
A significant portion of the City's annual Public Works Department budget is allocated
to the operation of the stormwater management features serving the streets and roads _.
within the City of Ocoee. Routine maintenance activities which are conducted on a
continuing basis, in both proactive and reactive postures, include:
(I) Street sweeping to remove the trash and accumulated particulates. r.
(2) Maintenance of the City's roadside swales and ditches focusing on secondary
conveyance systems and storm sewers. General responsibilities include the following
key activities:

3.3.3 General Element Discussion —,
a. Element Deficiencies
(1) Maintain an internal record keeping system to track inspections and maintenance
activities (Part III.A.3, Page 31, Box 3): Even though the City of Ocoee has
identified and mapped all ditches, swales, ponds and culverts, the Public Works
Department does not keep track of their activities through a formal work order
program, thereby making it difficult to track inspection and maintenance activities.
Currently, the Public Works Department maintains a daily log of their activities,
therefore it is possible, though time consuming, to track inspection and maintenance
activities. The City of Ocoee purchased a public works operations software package
entitled "QQUEST" during the spring of 1998. Beginning the Fall/Winter of 2000,
the Public Works Department plans to begin entering data in order to generate work
orders and track inspection and maintenance activities. —
h. Results ofActivities
(I) Approximately 15.5 miles of roadside swales maintained 12 times annually (4-week
intervals).
(2) Approximately 7.8 miles of roadside ditches maintained 12 times annually (4-week
intervals).
(3) Approximately 99.4 curb miles street-sweeped 26 times annually(2-week intervals).
(4) Approximately 45 miles of right-of-way repaired periodically to address erosion
problems.
3.3.4 Status Relative to Part Di

3.3.5 Assessment of Strengths and Weaknesses
a. Strengths
(1) Improve water quality through proper erosion control and removal of litter, debris,
and sediments.
(2) Improve reporting/tracking procedures in order to justify staffing and equipment
requirements during budget discussions.
h. Weaknesses
(1) The City of Ocoee's current weakness is the lack of a formal work order program in
order to effectively track inspections and maintenance activities. As previously discussed
in Section 3.3.3.a.(1), the City of Ocoee has purchased the necessary hardware and
software during Fiscal Year 1997/1998 in order to implement a work order
program/database.
3.3.6 Assessment of Controls
The current staffing and equipment associated with the City of Ocoee's Drainage Maintenance
Program is adequate to meet the requirements of the NPDES Program (Part III.A.3) and the
City's Integrated Stormwater Management Plan (ISMP).

3.4 FLOOD MANAGEMENT
3.4.1 Objective
The objectives of this SWMP clement are to:
• Ensure that water quality impacts on receiving waters are assessed for all flood
management projects.
• Evaluate the feasibility of upgrading, repairing or replacing existing structural flood
control devices in order to provide additional pollutant removal.
3.4.2 Element Activities
The City of Ocoee developed its Master Stormwater Planning Program in the early 1990s
during the preparation of the Comprehensive Plan. The focus of the drainage element of the
Comprehensive Plan was to provide adequate flood protection to the residents of Ocoee.
However, the Comprehensive Plan also directed its attention to water quality in order to "
preserve the lakes within the City.
a. Activities Completed
(1) Completed the Northwest Ditch Drainage Basin Study during January of 1996. The
recommendations of the study included the construction of two (2) wet detention/
urban wetland systems to provide water quality treatment associated with urban
stormwater runoff prior to discharging to Waters of the United States (Northwest
Ditch/Lake Apopka).
(2) Completed the Spring Lake/Lake John) Drainage Basin Study during February of
1996. The recommendations of the study included the installation of a sedimentation
baffle box and retrofitting three (3) stormwater ponds to wet detention in order to
improve the pollutant removal component of the stormwater ponds. _.

1998. The recommendations of the study included installation of sediment baffle
boxes and retrofitting stormwater ponds to improve water quality treatment.
(5) Completed the Lake Lotta Drainage Basin Study during December of 1998. The
recommendations of the study included the construction of a stormwater "park" (wet
detention system/urban wetland/passive park) and the acquisitions of drainage
easements for proper maintenance.
(6) Completed the City of Ocoee Drainage Maintenance Program during September of
1994. The purpose of the report was to identify the City's drainage facilities;
establish a maintenance schedule; develop maintenance priorities; determine
manpower and equipment requirements to maintain the schedule; and establish a
phased program with respect to costs.
(7) Completed the Stormwater Drainage Problem Areas Engineering Report during
March of 1996. The purpose of the report was to investigate the thirty-one (31)
known drainage related problem areas within the City of Ocoee and develop
recommended solutions and the associated capital costs. Where possible, the flood
control and/or localized flooding projects incorporated water quality improvements.
The report also contained a Phase 1 and Phase 2 Capital Improvement Program
(CIP) that identified and prioritized the drainage retrofit projects, as well as the
projects recommended by the completed drainage basin studies.
The following tables (Tables 3-1, 3-2 and 3-3) provide a prioritized project list and

b. Activities in Progress
(I) Update the Capital Improvement Program (i.e., Tables 3-1, 3-2 and 3-3) to
incorporate the recommendations from future drainage basin studies and the outcome
of future drainage workshops with the elected officials and the public.
(2) Continued participation in the University of Florida's LAKEWATCH Program. The
City of Ocoee, as part of the LAKEWATCH Program, has accumulated lake water
quality data for a period of record from July 1992 to the present, for twelve(12) of
the nineteen (19) lakes within the limits of the City of Ocoee. The water quality
parameters being collected on a monthly basis include: total phosphorus, total
nitrogen, chlorophyll-a and the secchi depth. The purpose of participating in the
LAKEWATCH Program is to monitor the lakes, establish trends, and provide "real —.
world" data to support the expenditures of funds associated with water quality
projects for each of the municipalities involved.
(3) Water quality impacts on receiving water will be assessed for all flood management
projects identified in the drainage basin studies. The feasibility of upgrading and/or
repairing existing structural flood control devices to provide additional pollutant
removal from storm water shall be evaluated.
(4) During June of 2000, the City Commissioners adopted the prioritized Capital
Improvement Program (CIP).
(5) The remaining basins are jointly within Unincorporated Orange County and the city
of Ocoee. Therefore, completion of the study of these basins will be undertaken as
part of Orange County's SWMMP for the Big Wekiva River Basin.
City of Ocoee Page 3-26

YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
(6) Incorporate the key findings and recommendations of the remaining drainage basin
studies, with respect to pollutant load reduction and water quality issues, into the
appropriate program elements of the Integrated Stormwater Management Plan.
3.4.3 General Element Discussion
a. Element Deficiencies
(I) None at the present time. The current language contained in the City of Ocoee's
Comprehensive Platt and Land Development Code prevents any development within
environmentally sensitive areas(wetlands); prevents any development within the 100-
- year flood plain; and requires stormwater management facilities to provide peak
attenuation and water quality treatment. Also, the completed drainage basin studies
and the Capital Improvement Program incorporate several water quality projects to
reduce pollutant loads associated with urban stormwater runoff
h. Results of Activities
(I) Finalized five (5) drainage basin studies that incorporate eight (8) drainage basins.
The completed drainage basin studies incorporate approximately 5,200 acres of land
area within the City of Ocoee, or approximately 63% of the incorporated area. The
completed drainage basin studies were also distributed to the SJRWAID and the
Orange County Stormwater Management Division in order to encourage dialogue
between the various entities to address regional stormwater issues.
(2) Finalized the Stormwater Drainage Problem Areas Engineering Report that
established a Capital Improvement Program(CIP) which incorporates several water
quality related projects ranging from regional stormwater ponds to sediment baffle
boxes.
3.4.4 Status Relative to Part III
Compliance, implementation and augmentation schedule items were identified in the Part III
matrix (Part III.A.4.) relative to this element include:
Implement the floodplain management regulations within the Land Development
Code that require future flood management projects to assess and minimize the

3.4.5 Assessment of Strengths and Weaknesses
The City of Ocoee's Capital Improvement Program is divided between upgrading existing
facilities and new facilities construction activities needed to accommodate new growth in the
City of Ocoee and improvements to existing facilities needed to remedy chronic and
intermittent stormwater problems. One of the key efforts at present is the ongoing effort to
upgrade and retrofit existing facilities to meet both flood control/prevention and water quality
objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
Much of the City's existing infrastructure constructed prior to the late 70's and early 80's was
built initially for flood control purposes and did not incorporate water quality features into
facility designs. Most of the older facilities were designed for smaller design storms and do
not meet current design standards. Consequently, a significant portion of the City's resources
are involved in improving inadequate drainage systems in residential and commercial areas
to meet current service levels in terms of both stormwater runoff quantity and quality
requirements.
a. Strengths
(1) Reduce pollutant loadings associated with stormwater runoff in the older urbanized
basins by incorporating water quality projects into the Capital Improvement Program
City of Ocoee Page 3-28
Orange Counq,Florida MS4 Permit No.FLS0000I I September 26.1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
(e.g., regional stormwater ponds, sediment baffle boxes, pollution control devices,
alum treatment systems, etc.).
'- h. Weaknesses
(1) No weaknesses have been identified in this program element at the present time.
3.4.6 Assessment of Controls
Historically, the City's retrofitting effort for developed areas has been focused on identifying
appropriate facilities for retrofitting and evaluating the potential costs and benefits of
proposed projects. The City of Ocoee's current philosophy on retrofitting developed areas
is best summarized as follows:
• Retrofitting will occur naturally as drainage basin studies are completed to solve
flooding and water quality problems. Capital improvement projects will be
undertaken to remedy existing problems.
• Selective projects will be undertaken each fiscal year to construct cost effective
retrofit controls on existing facilities.
• Limited projects will be undertaken in the foreseeable future to retrofit selected
existing facilities as budgetary constraints allow.

3.7 ILLICIT INSPECTION/INVESTIGATION/ENFORCEMENT
3.7.1 Objective
The objectives of this SWMP element are to:
• Identify and assess non-stormwater discharges and determine which of these
discharges can be permitted for disposal into City stormwater management
facilities and receiving waters.
City of Ocoee Page 3-38
Orange County,Florida MS4 Penult No.FLS0000I I September 20. 1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
• Develop and implement a suitable inspection program for enforcement of City
ordinances that prohibit certain non-stormwater discharges.
• Develop and implement suitable field protocols and staff training as required
to implement a program for tracing and documenting illicit and prohibited
discharges to the City's stormwater management facilities.
• Operate an on-going illicit discharge tracing program to identify and document
the illicit connections and discharges to the City's stormwater facilities.
3.7.2 Element Activities
a. Activities Completed
(1) Executed an interlocal agreement with Orange County and the co-applicants that
established control of the contribution of pollutants from one permittee's portion
of the municipal system to another permittee's portion of the municipal system.
(2) Completed an assessment of non-storm water discharges allowed to be discharged
to the MS4 that is consistent with the non-storm water discharges listed on Page
II-18 of the NPDES MS4 permit. The following is a list of non-storm water
discharges allowed in the City of Ocoee:
• water line flushing;
• lawn watering/landscape irrigation;
• diverted stream flows;
• rising ground waters;
• uncontaminated ground water infiltration (as defined at 40 CFR 35.2005(20))
to separate storm sewers;
• uncontaminated pumped ground water;
• discharges from potable water sources;
• foundation drains;
• air conditioning condensate;
• springs;
• water from crawl space pumps;
• footing drains;
• individual residential car washing;
• flows from riparian habitats and wetlands;
City of Ocoee Page 3-39
Orange County.Florida MS4 Permit No.FLS000011 Sepi:miler 26. 1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
• dechlorinated swimming pool discharges; `
• street washers; and
• discharges or flows from emergency fire fighting activities.
(3) Completed the development of an inspection program to enforce current City
ordinances that prohibit illicit connections and illegal dumping into the MS4
(Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems). The inspection program consists of
the following steps:
Step 1 - The City of Ocoee's Engineering Department will update, on an annual
basis, the number of industrial sites within the City limits (refer to Table 3-5).
This table will indicate the business name, address, service provided, SIC
(Standard Industrial Classification) code, and whether or not the site discharges
to an on-site stormwater pond or directly to the MS4. Currently, there are
approximately 167 industrial sites within the City of Ocoee.
Step 2 - The City of Ocoee's Public Works Department will visually inspect the _
outfall from the industrial sites tabulated in Step I during dry weather conditions.
The visual inspection will determine if non-storm water flows are present or signs
of contamination such as residues are within the outfall pipe or on the ground
surface. The City inspection will document their findings with pictures and
completion of a standard form.
Step 3 - If signs of residue and/or flow are present, the inspection will proceed
upstream in order to track the source of the flow or signs of contamination
through the storm line or from the inlet by systematically opening manholes until
the flow is observed entering the storm line from a specific source or is not
present anymore. If the flow is present in a manhole but not present in the next
upstream manhole, the source can generally be located because the discharge has
been isolated to a relatively small area between manholes. Direct tracking from
overland discharges can be easily followed on foot by an inspector.
Another type of visual inspection, which may be used, is through dosed circuit
TV. This involves guiding a camera, which is designed for inspecting wastewater
systems through the storm line until a source is observed. This type of inspection
would be used when the source of discharge cannot be observed through
manholes.
City of Ocoee Page 3-40
Orange County,Florida MS4 Permit No.FLS000011 September 26,1999
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CTTY OF OCOEE
Step 4 - Notify the business owner of the illicit connection and request resolution
immediately. A copy of the notification will be sent to the Florida Department
of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and EPA.
Step 5 - If necessary, initiate enforcement action in order to terminate the illicit
connection.
(4) Initiated the illicit connection inspection program associated with industrial sites (refer
to Appendix "B" for copies of the inspection reports).
. Activities in Progress
y (1) Coordinate with Orange County regarding a training course and supporting
materials for training City of Ocoee Public Works employees in the procedures
and safety aspects of illicit discharge investigation and documentation.
(2) Revise the Land Development Codes to incorporate specific language regarding
the following:
• Prohibiting the discharge of polluted water into the MS4;
• Providing for the correction and discontinuance of prohibited discharges;
• Providing for immediate action under emergency conditions; and
• Liability of pollution abatement.

3.14 CONSTRUCTION PLANNING PROCEDURES
3.14.1 Objective
The objectives of this SWMP element are to:
• Ensure that the City of Ocoee Land Development Regulations incorporate the use and
maintenance of on-site structural and non-structural controls (best management
.. practices) to reduce sediments and pollutants discharged to the MS4 during the time
of construction.
• Implement the use of structural and non-structural best management practices
during construction to reduce off-site discharges of sediments and pollutants.
3.14.2 Element Activities
The City of Ocoee has been regulating discharges from construction activities to meet
' earlier City Land Development Regulations and City Code requirements prior to the
issuance of the NPDES MS4 permit.
a. Activities Completed
(1) Review erosion and sediment control requirements to determine modifications
necessary to correlate with the appropriate Water Management District
requirements, EPA's NPDES Construction Activity General Permit and
.� summarize the necessary modifications in the subsequent ANNUAL REPORT.
Currently, all residential, commercial and/or miscellaneous site improvements (e.g.,
building additions and parking lot expansions) require formal review and approval
from the City in order to proceed with construction. Projects involving a proposed
building area less than or equal to 25,000 square feet require review and approval
through the Building Department while projects involving building areas greater than
25,000 square feet, in addition to residential and commercial developments, require
review and approval through the Development Review Committee (DRC). In either
case, as a condition of approval, the City requires the owner and/or developer to
provide the City with a copy of the approved storm water permit, with conditions,
from the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) prior to the approval
of the site plan, plat or building permit.

Orange county,Florida MS4 Permit No.FLS0000 II September 26, 1999 i
YEAR 4 ANNUAL REPORT CITY OF OCOEE
r
Typically, the SJRWMD stormwater permits contain the following language as
conditions for approval of the projects:
• Turbidity barriers must be installed at all locations where the possibility of
transferring suspended solids into the receiving waterbody exists due to the
proposed work. Turbidity barriers must remain in place at all locations until �•
construction is completed and soils are stabilized and vegetation has been
established. Thereafter, the permittee will be responsible for the removal of
the barriers.
• Permittee must select, implement, and operate all erosion and sediment control
measures required to retain sediment on-site and to prevent violations of water
quality standards as specified in Chapters 62-301, 62-302, and 62-4, F.A.C. "
The permittee is encouraged to use appropriate Best Management Practices
(BMP's) for erosion and sediment control as described in the Florida Land
Development Manual: A Guide to Sound Lund and Water Management (DEP,
1988).
• The permittee must construct and maintain a permanent protective vegetative
and/or artificial cover for erosion and sediment control on all land surfaces e
exposed or disturbed by construction or alteration of the permitted project.
Unless modified by another condition of this permit or specified otherwise on
a District-approved erosion and sediment control plan, this protective cover r
must be installed within fourteen (14) days after final grading of the affected
land surfaces. A permanent vegetative cover must be established within sixty 'I
(60) days after planting or installation. The permittee must maintain cover on
adjacent ground surfaces which may be impacted by construction activities until
•
the District receives the engineer of record certification that the project is
•
constructed according to the permitted plans.
e
• At a minimum, all retention and detention storage areas must be excavated to
rough grade prior to building construction or placement of impervious surface
within the area to be served by those facilities. To prevent reduction in storage
volume and percolation rates, all accumulated sediment must be removed from
the storage area prior to final grading and stabilization.
During a pre-construction meeting, which is required for projects involving DRC i
approval, the City, owner and contractor will address and discuss the conditions of
approval and specific conditions contained in the stormwater management permit

issued by the SIRWMD and the SWPPP (Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan) if
the project exceeds five (5) acres of disturbed area
During construction, if City staff observes violations of the SIRWMD permit, the City
immediately contacts the Water Management District's Enforcement Department and
informs the WMD of any observed violations. In addition, the City currently has the
legal authority to revoke a building permit and/or terminate a site construction permit
if the activity, during any stage of work "is not being done in accordance with the
terms of the permit or the applications upon which the same was issued." This
language is contained in the "Code of the City of Ocoee", Chapter 51, Section 51-30.
Pages 51-16 through 51-17.
b. Activities in Progress
(1) Revise the Land Development Regulations, as necessary, to incorporate the
necessary modifications to the erosion and sediment control requirements.
— (2) Develop and incorporate guidelines and recommendations into the Land
Development Regulations for the reduction of sediment leaving construction
sites.

3.16 EDUCATION ACTIVITIES
3.16.1 Objective
The objectives of this SWMP element are to:
• Educate the Public regarding the benefits of stormwater management programs
and the potential consequences from improper use of fertilizers, herbicides and
pesticides to water quality and environmentally sensitive areas. The SWMP
element also serves to educate the public on the proper disposal of these
materials, waste oil and other toxic materials.
• Provide an educational program on the proper design and operation of
construction sites to control site discharges of pollutants to City stormwater
management facilities and receiving waters.
• Secure Public input on the use and management of the City's lakes to meet
citizen needs for recreation, aesthetics and water quality.
3.16.2 Element Activities
a. Activities Completed
(1) Beginning in the Spring of 1999. Orange County, and a few of the co-
applicants (including the City of Ocoee) created a public education sub-
committee to develop a cost effective County-wide public information
pamphlet. During the Summer of 1999, the sub-committee completed the
pamphlet entitled "Citizens Guide to Stormwater Pollution How You Can
Help". This pamphlet contains the basic information with respect to grass
clippings and leaves; automotive and household waste; fertilizers, herbicides
and pesticides; car wash water; erosion and sediment control; and important
phone numbers (refer to Appendix "D").
(2) The City of Ocoee recently completed another pamphlet entitled "Lake Care
Tips.... Help Protect Our Lakes and Water" and made 5,000 copies to be
distributed throughout the year by City staff and the Commission (refer to
Appendix "D"). The Public Works Stormwater Division had an exhibit booth
during Founder's Day (October 1999) to distribute the pamphlets.

(3) The Florida Department of Transportation (FOOT), Environmental
Management Office, in cooperation with the Orange County Environmental
Protection Division, produced a videotape entitled "Stormwater.... A Mixed
Blessing".
(4) The City of Ocoee purchased a videotape entitled "Stormwater Pollution
Prevention...Doing Your Part" which will be utilized for in-house training and
aired on the local public cable channel.
(5) The Public Works Department initiated the storm sewer inlet marking program
to educate the public about the City's drainage facilities, reduce illegal dumping
into storm sewers and provide a visual warning to citizens on the hazards of
illicit discharges. The program is designed to use either City forces or
volunteers to mark storm sewer inlets in the City. The program uses preprinted
vinyl disks which are bonded to storm sewer inlet covers or curbs and contain
the following message:
"NO DUMPING...
DRAINS TO LAKE"
In addition to the inlet marking program, the City has also installed
approximately 25 to 30 signs informing the citizens of the receiving water body
associated with the major drainage ditches. Refer to Appendix "D" for a
photograph of the recently installed signs.
