Data Assessment & Statistics
The protection of water resources is enhanced by collecting and managing
various types of ground water and springs data. Springs and ground water
data are collected from various FDEP programs and other agencies and
then integrated into a new centralized repository. These data are
managed to support the development of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs)
for potentially impaired waters, spring system assessments, ground water
to surface water interaction investigations and statewide drinking water
assessments. Data are catalogued and mapped to maximize the
identification of natural and anthropogenic substances of concern for
particular aquifers. Automated computer functions allow routine ground
water reports to be generated with ease along with supporting
descriptive statistics and other calculations that indicate whether the
water resource meets its designated use for potable water supply or the
support of aquatic life.
