JOINT FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL PUBLIC NOTICE 01/20/2021

The Federal Emergency Management Agency and Florida Division of Emergency Management have received the following application for Federal grant funding.  Final notice is hereby given of the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) consideration to provide funding in the form of Hazard Mitigation Grant Program. Funds will be provided in accordance with Section 404 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, Public Law 93-288, as amended.

Under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), federal actions must be reviewed and evaluated for feasible alternatives and for social, economic, historic, environmental, legal, and safety considerations. Under Executive Order (EO) 11988 and EO 11990 FEMA is required to consider alternatives to and to provide public notice of any proposed actions in or affecting floodplains or wetlands. EO 12898 also requires FEMA to provide the opportunity for public participation in the planning process and to consider potential impacts to minority or low-income populations. 

Funding for the proposed project will be conditional upon compliance with all applicable federal, tribal, state and local laws, regulations, floodplain standards, permit requirements and conditions. 

Applicant:

Village of Wellington 

Project Title:

HMGP-4337-516  Title: Pump Station #2 Hardening 

Location of Proposed Work:

The project is located 6090 140th Avenue S, Wellington, FL. The site is part of Village of Wellington owned property along a drainage canal. No homes will be impacted by the construction of the project. Construction of the project will not impact any residences. 

 Proposed Work and Purpose:

Pump Station No. 2 is vital to moving storm water out of the Village canal system and to prevent flooding that could impact our residents during a large rain or hurricane event. The facility was constructed in the 1970’s and renovated in 1988.  The facility does not meet the current building codes and wind-load requirements. The proposed HMGP project will provide protection for the critical drainage facilities from wind damage. With the mitigation efforts the structure will meet current building codes and wind load requirements to 170 mph. This hardening will allow the facility to operate during and after a major wind event. 

The project will also provide flood protection by improving the existing piping, pumps and other components directly related to moving the stormwater through the facility. The improvements to the pumps and other components such as remote accessed telemetry will improve the amount of stormwater that can be moved. The proposed project will also ensure the facility has a safe and reliable fuel source that can allow the station to move water during and after a significant event.

Project Alternatives:

If no action is taken the Village will continue to operate and maintain the facility as needed. This will include costly repairs and improvements when needed but will not mitigate the existing problems. However, the facility will continue to be vulnerable to damage from a significant wind event.   High speed winds could impact the facility limiting or even interrupting is capability to effectively move water into the canals and provide flood protection for a large portion of the community.

An alternative to the proposed HMGP is removing and replacing the existing facilities in their entirety, this is the most expensive option, primarily due to the cost of the two new two-way hydraulic pumps. In addition to the higher cost, this alternative reduces the capacity of the pump station by approximately 30%. The cost difference between the proposed HMGP project and this course of action is the difference between replacing or reusing the existing two-way box pump. The primary reasons this alternative was not chosen are the cost, reduction in capacity and time needed to construct the new facility.

Comment Period:

Comments are solicited from the public; local, state or federal agencies; and other interested parties in order to consider and evaluate the impacts of the proposed project.  The comments should be made in writing and addressed to the Florida Division of Emergency Management, Bureau of Recovery and Mitigation, 2555 Shumard Oak Blvd., Tallahassee, FL 32399-2100.  These are due within 15 days of this notice.  The State will forward comments to applicable regulatory agencies as needed.  Interested persons may submit comments, obtain more detailed information about the proposed action, or request a copy of the findings by contacting:
