Recorded outcome

The Taylor County Board of County Commissioners held a workshop to discuss employee health insurance options, a draft permit for GP/Foley, the timeline for Hodges Park, and upcoming budget priorities. The board reviewed insurance renewal data, discussed potential employee wage increases, and addressed delays in park construction and engineering project management.

Why it matters

Residents should care because these discussions directly impact county employee compensation, the status of local public infrastructure projects like Hodges Park, and the management of county budget priorities.

BISHOP, JR , County Attorney Post Office Box 167 Perry, Florida 32348 (850) 584-6113 Phone (850) 584-2433 Fax The Taylor County, Florida Board of County Commissioners (Board) is providing additional written comments to those previously provided on February 20, 2026. The Board acknowledges and thanks the Department for scheduling the Public Meeting on April 23, 2026. The Department and Georgia-Pacific staff resources were professional and informative. The Board specifically requested the public meeting to discuss how the proposed discharge at D-001 will be controlled. Mr. Justin Bates of Georgia-Pacific shared that Foley Cellulose plans to use the seconda ry clarifier influent pump station , linked to the upstream Fenholloway River gauge, to ensure discharge occurs only when the gauge water level exceeds 2.7 feet and that no more than 12 milli on gallons are discharged in a single day. Removing Cell No. 1 of Lagoon 2 from flow-through service will be required , along with keeping water levels low in all Lagoon 2 cells and returning any accumulated stormwater to Lagoon 1 for treatment. As this involves modifications to the current treatment system , we ask that the application wastewater process diagram and the permit wastewater treatment description be updated to reflect this plan . The Board further requests, as this is a new control process, that a startup plan be required in the Schedule-Improvement Actions section of the permit to ensure that no accumulated waste materials in the Lagoon 2 flume system are discharged to the Fenholloway during startup. As Cells 2- 11 of Lagoon 2 have been bypassed from flow-through service, and with the planned bypass of Cell No. 1, Lagoon 2, the Board proposes that a wastewater system closure plan be required within 180 days of permit issuance for the bypassed treatment components. Implementing closure for these cells will reduce the amount of stormwater requiring treatment, thereby reducing the required discharge to surface waters. In addition to the Lagoon 2 Cells, the Board understands that the primary clarifier skimm ing pond and solid settling basins are no longer required as components of the wastewater treatment system . Closing these unnecessary cells will significantly reduce the volume of contaminated stormwater to be treated. The implementation of the closure plan for these cells should be included in the Schedule-Improvement Actions section of the permit. The Board understands that Foley Cellulose concluded , and the Department concurs, that the Production Well No. 2 operati on is not needed to maintain a groundwater capture zone within the permit-specified zone of discharge. This makes the control and treatment of accumulated stormwater the primary purpose of the wastewater treatment system. From discussions with Georgia-Pacific staff at the public meeting, we understand that temporary pumps and generators will be set up at the wastewater treatment system for hurricane season . The Board commends Foley Cellulose for being proactive. The Board recommends that Foley Cellulose be required to submit a stormwater management plan that includes the hurricane season and to provide an annual plan briefing to the Taylor County Division of Emergency Management. The Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document concerning Georgia-Pacific's Former Foley Mill Site Draft Industrial Waste Permit provided to the public by the Department indicates " ... the remaining discharge is temporary and associated with closure and decommissioning activities, which are expected to take approximately three to five years. Permitting and constructing alternative disposal systems would likely take longer than the remaining closure work, delaying potential sale or redevelopment of the site ." If the Department proceeds with permitting Foley Cellulose to discharge at D-001 , the Board requests that a comprehensive closure plan for the site, solid waste management, and wastewater treatment be submitted within 180 days of permit issuance. The plan should include an implementation schedule and require a quarterly progress report. This comprehensive closure plan requirement should be included in the Schedule-Improvement Actions section of the permit. The apparent basis for proposing the use of D- 001 is that it will speed the closure process. With that basis, a closure plan and schedule must be required to ensure the closure is temporary and completed as quickly as practicable. The D- 001 discharge alternative is the least desirable option . If a discharge is permitted at D-001 , the Board seeks to make it as temporary as possible. If the Industrial Wastewater Permit is to be renewed in five years, the Board believes this permit is not in the Taylor County Public Interest.
