Re: Consider Approval of Work Authorization to Mock Roos for $5,000 to Conduct
Tequesta’s NPDES Year 7 Annual Assessment for the PBC MS4 County-wide Permit 2023
(FY24 Funds)
The Utilities Department (UD) recommends approval of a work authorization to Mock Roos &
Associates, Inc., for $5,000 to conduct Tequesta’s Year 7 “Annual Assessment” for the Palm Beach
County (PBC) municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) permit using 2023’s data.
The municipalities and Palm Beach County hold an MS4 permit for storm sewer collection systems
located within the county. The permit has a list of compliance conditions under which it is issued, often
specific for each year the permit is held. These requirements must be completed and submitted to PBC
for compilation and ultimate submittal to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP)
for permit compliance. This work authorization is to conduct a required “Annual Assessment” of the
Village of Tequesta’s stormwater system by evaluating the results of sample points near Tequesta taken
by the Loxahatchee River Environmental District.
The annual assessment is an analysis using a suite of analytes specific to determining the trend of
nutrient loading in the nearby receiving waters. The receiving waters are the Loxahatchee River and the
Indian River Lagoon. That evaluation is added to the Village’s other Year 7 information and provided to
PBC. PBC compiles the compliance information for all stormwater service providers in the county and
submits it to FDEP.
