Sebring Inflow and Infiltration Correction and Stormwater System Installation - A loan agreement was executed for $225,000 for the Lake Jackson infrastructure upgrade phase 1 project, which includes stormwater runoff treatment and gravity inflow/infiltration repairs along a 2.7 mile corridor on Southwest Lakeview Drive on the west side of Lake Jackson from US 27 to Fairmount Lane in Sebring. Gravity sanitary sewers were installed in the roadway in the 1993-94 timeframe. Since that time the roadway has experienced settlement causing isolated depressed areas as well as areas where the ride-ability is diminished. The capacity of the stormwater culverts crossing the roadway are questionable and there is no apparent stormwater treatment on the roadway. The project requires significant study and modeling to determine the most cost-effective and technically feasible improvements necessary to address infrastructure issues.

Florida's Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) is administered by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) with joint funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the State of Florida. CWSRF programs operate around the country to provide states and communities the resources necessary to maintain and improve the infrastructure that protects our valuable water resources nationwide. Florida's CWSRF program has awarded approximately $1.1 billion in funding for about 120 wastewater and stormwater improvement projects during the past five years for a total of $4 billion in loan funds since its inception in 1989. The program provides low-interest loans to eligible entities for planning, designing and constructing water pollution control facilities.
