The L-63N Canal Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) Reactivation project is part of the LakeOkeechobee and Estuary Recovery (LOER) Plan developed by the South Florida WaterManagement District (SFWMD) and other state agencies to help restore the ecological health ofLake Okeechobee and the St. Lucie and Caloosahatchee Estuaries. The objective of the project isto develop a 10 mgd water treatment system at the Taylor Creek ASR site. The new systemcould use a combination of filtration and disinfection to meet primary drinking water standards,prior to storage. Bench-scale and pilot-scale testing was conducted to determine the best filterand disinfectant for reducing total coliform to less than 4 cfu/100 mL and resulting in theabsence of fecal coliforms.
