Land application of domestic wastewater in Florida--statewide assessment of impact on ground-water quality
Bernard J. Franks
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-3
In Florida domestic waste water is being applied to the land for disposal and reuse. State and Federal regulations favor land-application methods over other advanced waste water treatment practices. Despite the increasing use of this alternative technology, little is known about localized effects on groundwater quality. This report documents the...
Water-resources information for the Withlacoochee River region, west-central Florida
Robert A. Miller, Warren Anderson, Anthony S. Navoy, James L. Smoot, Roger G. Belles
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-11
Daily water use in the Withlacoochee River region in 1977 averaged about 2,005 million gallons per day, 94 percent of which was saline surface water used in thermoelectric power-generation cooling. Industrial and irrigation uses required 73 percent of the freshwater. The largest user of freshwater was Hernando County, using 43.0...
