Isle of Capri Pump Station is a distribution pump station located at 12050 2nd St East in Treasure Island, Florida, within Pinellas County. The facility is operational and plays a role in the municipal water supply infrastructure for the region. As a distribution pump station, it is part of the pressurized water network that delivers potable water from treatment plants to homes and businesses. In Florida, such facilities are regulated under state water supply laws and local utility standards, ensuring safe and reliable water delivery. Typical distribution pump stations in this area serve medium-density coastal communities. The station supports the water distribution system for Treasure Island and surrounding areas, contributing to public health and fire protection. Its coastal location in the Tampa Bay area requires resilience against hurricanes and saltwater intrusion, which are key environmental considerations for pumping infrastructure in Florida.

The station operates in a coastal barrier island environment, where saltwater intrusion and hurricane storm surge pose risks to water infrastructure. Redundancy in pumping capacity and backup power are critical for maintaining service during extreme weather events. The facility's location in a densely developed tourist area also emphasizes the need for reliable water supply for both residents and visitors.
