South Florida Water Management District 20110101 vector digital data Lake Okeechobee Watershed Protection Update These watersheds are identified as nutrient-sensitive areas in the state of Florida. Tallahassee, FL Florida Department of Environmental Protection State of Florida http://www.dep.state.fl.us/gis/datadir.htm The Northern Everglades and Estuaries Protection Program (NEEPP) data layer represents the three watersheds covered by the NEEPP, Section 373.4595, F.S. The three watersheds currently identified by the statute are the Lake Okeechobee watershed, the Caloosahatchee River watershed, and the St. Lucie River watershed. These watersheds are identified as nutrient-sensitive areas in the state of Florida. The primary goal of the NEEPP is to restore and to protect the state’s surface-water resources by addressing water quality, quantity, timing, and distribution of water, returning the water to a natural system. Underscoring the state's commitment to Greater Everglades ecosystem restoration, the Florida Legislature in 2007 expanded the Lake Okeechobee Protection Act to strengthen protection for the Northern Everglades. This is being achieved by restoring and preserving the Lake Okeechobee watershed and the Caloosahatchee and St. Lucie estuaries. Programs with provisions stipulated by this statute, such as the biosolids program, may use the data layer to review the landward extent of each watershed for the purposes of identifying areas subject to the statute.

The data available in FGDL may not be the most current version of the data offered by the data source. University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no guarantees about the currentness of the data and suggests that data users check with the data source to see if more recent versions of the data exist.

A note about data scale: Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes. Please be sure you are using the best available data. 1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the county level. 1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such as property parcel boundaries. 1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the multi-county or regional level. 1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the regional or state level or larger. Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact section of this documentation.
