No 324812, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: Excerpts from the report: Due to budgetary constraints during the period that this study was initiated and undertaken, the study focus was changed to a study of the relationship of soils, current and projected land use, and habitat. Therefore, the sponsors recognize this study only as a land use study that compiles available published data related to the following items: 1. Potential water storage areas. 2. Future agricultural water needs. 3. Future urban and industrial water demands. 4. Environmentally sensitive areas and areas of special consideration for development. 5. Effects of interchange of groundwater between various aquifer levels. 6. Surface water quality. 7. Water quantities from various storm frequencies and surface runoff. 8. Flood data on non-incorporated areas not covered by flood insurance studies. 9. Potential for storing water outside the county for future use (interchange with Lake Okeechobee and other areas). 10. Water conservation programs.
