Pine Lake Preserve Stormwater Management - City of Bonita Springs

This Hydrological restoration project will re-hydrate critical wetland habitat and re-establish hydraulic connectivity between the Imperial River and the undisturbed CREW wetlands which lie to east of the preserve in the Corkscrew swamp. The project will redirect flows from a storm water ditch on the northern boundary of the property along East Terry Street, south onto the property, via the construction of berms and overland flow-ways. The water will be routed through two existing ponds and then into a dry Imperial River tributary. Additionally water from the Kehl canal will be redirected into the dry tributary. This Project will improve water quality, restore wetland habitat, and reduce flooding potential to existing surrounding neighborhoods. The City is required, by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, to remove 9,903 lbs/yr of nitrogen from the freshwater watershed by the year 2027, through the Imperial River Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP). Construction of this project is designed to help achieve that nitrogen reduction. This project will improve water quality in the Imperial River and its receiving waters of Estero Bay by removing excess nitrogen that has been introduced into the ecosystem though the development of the land over the past century. The project is included in the city's 2022-2026 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). As of December 8, 2022, information regarding a design firm and the general contractor selection timeline has not been disclosed. A firm construction timeline has not been released. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
