Upper and Lower Santa Fe River Basins Designated as Water Resource Caution Areas

The Suwannee RWMD announced (Oct 14, 2011) that the Upper and Lower Santa Fe River basins have been designated as “water resource caution areas” under Chapter 373 of the Florida Statutes.

"The designation means that groundwater sources in those areas are not adequate to meet future needs over a 20-year period and that regional water supply plans are needed to find water sources to meet demands. The designation also means that the District will initiate water supply planning in those regions and will prepare one or more regional water supply plans."
