 Statutory  Requirements  s.373.042(2),  F.S.    What  is  an  MFL?  “the  limit  at  which  further  withdrawals  will  cause  

significant  harm  to  the  water  resources  or  ecology  of  the  area.”  

 

Purpose:    Support  water  resource  planning  and  water  use  permi<ng  to  protect  water  resources  and  associated  ecology.  

   •  All:    

•  1st  magnitude  springs  (median  flow  >100  cfs  /  64.6  mgd)  •  2nd  magnitude  springs  on  state  or  federal  conservaIon  land.  

•  Other  waterbodies:  importance  of  waters  to  the  state  or  region,  and  existence  of  or  potenIal  for  significant  harm  to  water  resources  or  ecology  of  the  state  or  region.

Two-­‐step  Process:  1)  Perform  a  Water  Supply  Assessment  to  esImate  

future  water  needs  and  evaluate  the  sources  available  to  meet  those  needs  (s.373.036,  F.S.).    

2)  Develop  a  Regional  Water  Supply  Plan  for  any  region  where  exisIng  and  anIcipated  water  sources  are  not  adequate  to  meet  future  needs,  while  sustaining  water  resources  and  natural  systems  (s.373.709,  F.S.).  

The  District’s  Governing  Board,  a5er  careful  considera9on  of  informa9on  provided,  makes  the  final  determina9on  of  the  need  for  a  Regional  Water  Supply  Plan.
