This represents 90.17% of the total contract amount of $1,708,000.00. d. Industrial Pretreatment Program Update (ITEM F2d) A draft revision of the Industrial Waste and Pretreatment Agreement has been completed and is included in the Agenda packet. The revisions that have been made were required due to new EPA streamlining rules and revisions to Chapter 62.625 of the Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). Revisions were also made to the Enforcement Response Plans for both cities as well as their Sewer Use Ordinances. Our final response is scheduled to be submitted to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection by February 6, 2012. e. Odor Control Update (October 26, 2011 through December 31, 2011) (ITEM F2e) From November 3, 2011 until December 13, 2011 we had only five odor complaints. Pilot Testing on the use of activated carbon in conjunction with our current wet - chemical scrubber process occurred on December 19, 2011. While all the testing parameters are currently being integrated into an odor control model to determine the effectiveness of the carbon addition, one early conclusion can already be drawn. A process control change that occurred back in August as a result of the first round of air sampling appears to have lowered the inlet level of odor compounds entering the system. The lower level of odor compounds entering the system has increased the wet scrubber system's ability to treat the incoming odor stream. Final results of the carbon towertesting, along with a recommendation, will be submitted to the Board at the April 2012 meeting.

AUTHORIZATION TO MAINTAIN OUR RECLAIM USER RATE FOR HUNTERS RUN, COUNTRY CLUB OF FLORIDA, QUAIL RIDGE, DELRAY DUNES AND PINE TREE FOR FISCALYEAR 2011/2012 AT $.2000/1,000 GALLONS. (ITEM J2) The five original golf course customers have a cost formula that requires adjustment of their usage rate annually. It essentially averages the past 24 months operating cost and is applied to the current fiscal year. Due to increased volume through the reclaim plant due to the deep injection well process, the adjusted rate this year would be $.1686/1, 000 gallons. However, due to their contract structure, their rate cannot go below $.20/1, 000 gallons. MOTION TO APPROVE NEW BUSINESS ITEM J2 3.
