Project Objective
JEA is beginning a project to construct a water transmission pipeline between its two major water grids in Duval County. This project, known as the Total Water Management Plan (TWMP) Project, will transport excess water supply from the north side of the St. Johns River to the south side of the river to better meet increased potable water demand in the southerly portion of the JEA service area. This project will also promote conservation of the Floridian aquifer by lessening JEA water resource withdrawal demand from its southern raw water well fields.

Segment 6 Project Highlights
- Total project cost $4.6 million
- The pipeline will be 24-inches in diameter, approximately 9,100 feet long, made of ductile iron and weigh over 779,000 pounds (389 tons). This is equivalent to the weight of 139 Ford F-150 trucks.
- The volume of water in Segment 5 will be approximately 235,000 gallons, which is equivalent to 11 average size swimming pools.
- Once this project is complete it will allow JEA to better meet growing potable water demands in the southerly portion of the JEA service area.
