University of Florida GeoPlan Center 20091020 vector digital data Gainesville, FL University of Florida GeoPlan Center State of Florida www.fgdl.org This data set contains Florida's designated Wild & Scenic Rivers. The river lines were extracted from the data set of major rivers as identified in the "Florida Rivers Assessment", completed for the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) in December 1989. In 2005 more line work was added by the South Florida Water Management District. In 2009 the line work was updated by the USDA. This is an update to the FGDL layer WILDRIVER_AUG05. The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analytical purposes. Loxahatchee River: National Wild and Scenic River http://www.rivers.gov/wsr-loxahatchee.html Jonathan Dickinson State Park 16450 Southeast Federal Highway Hobe Sound, Florida 33455 Designated Reach: May 17, 1985. From Riverbend Park downstream to Jonathan Dickinson State Park. Classification/Mileage: Wild — 1.3 miles; Scenic — 5.8 miles; Recreational — 0.5 miles; Total — 7.6 miles. This scenic southern river flows through an interesting vegetative landscape which supports a wide range of aquatic and terrestrial fish and wildlife species. The river also provides for an abundance of bird species. ------------------------------------------ Myakka River: State of Florida Wild and Scenic River http://www.myakkariver.net/ Myakka River was declared a ‘Wild and Scenic River’ by the Florida State Legislature in 1985. ------------------------------------------ Wekiva River: National Wild and Scenic River http://www.rivers.gov/wsr-wekiva.html National Park Service Atlanta Federal Center 1924 Building 100 Alabama Street, SW Atlanta, Georgia 30303 Telephone: (404) 562-3175 x 522 Designated Reach: October 13, 2000. The Wekiva River from its confluence with the St. Johns River to Wekiva Springs. Rock Springs Run from its headwaters at Rock Springs to the confluence with the Wekiwa Springs Run. Black Water Creek from the outflow from Lake Norris to the confluence with the Wekiva River. Classification/Mileage: Wild — 31.4 miles; Scenic — 2.1 miles; Recreational — 8.1 miles; Total — 41.6 miles. The Wekiva River Basin is a complex ecological system of rivers, springs, seepage areas, lakes, streams, sinkholes, wetland prairies, hardwood hammocks, pine flatwoods and sand pine scrub communities. Water quality is exhibited in two ways. Several streams are clear due to being spring-fed. Others are blackwater; blackwater streams receive most of their flow from precipitation resulting in annual rainy season over-bank flows. The Wekiva and its tributaries are in superb ecological condition. The basin is almost entirely within Florida State lands and supports many species of plant and animal life, some of which are endangered, threatened, or of special concern. Elevations range from sea level to about 35 feet above sea level. The climate is subtropical, with an average annual temperature of around 72 degrees. Mean annual rainfall over the Wekiva basin is 52 inches, most of which occurs during the June-October rainy season. ------------------------------------------ Wild & Scenic Study Rivers Study Status (As of January 2010) http://www.rivers.gov/study.html The number of rivers included in the National System differs from the number of rivers authorized for study by Congress for the following reasons: * Not all rivers studied are found eligible or suitable for designation, many study rivers will not be included in the National System. * Some rivers are designated by Congress or the Secretary of the Interior without a pre-authorization or 5(a) study (e.g., the Niobrara). * Some rivers are designated through recommendations prepared in federal agency planning processes (e.g., 40 rivers designated in Oregon in 1988).

The "Florida Rivers Assessment" was, when possible, used as a reference for selecting the boundaries of each water body. Wild & Scenic Rivers were extracted by name. FREAC 19890101 Original FGDL layer was created by Florida Resources and Environmental Analysis Center (FREAC). GeoPlan received Loxahatchee Linework 8/15/05 from cconrad@sfwmd.gov. Deleted linework from existing wildriver layer that had overlap with new SFWMD linework. Merged lox_trappers_down (converted from poly to line before merge) also merged lox_trappers_up. The product of the merge is the new WILDRIVER_AUG05. GeoPlan 20060213 GeoPlan downloaded data from the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System Mapping website (http://www.rivers.gov/maps.html) on June 22nd, 2010. http://www.rivers.gov/maps/gis/gis.zip Master_Conus_WSR2009_Oct20.shp Data Source: USDA-Forest Service Recreation Solutions Feature Count: 2030 features Scale: 2,000,000 for segments compiled before the year 2000, 24,000 for segments compiled thereafter.

Based on the Designated Reach and Classification/Mileage from the National Wild & Scenic Rivers website (http://www.rivers.gov/wsr-loxahatchee.html) it was determined that the existing WILDRIVER_AUG05 Loxahatchee River features were inaccurate. Because the Loxahatchee River features from the subset Master_Conus_WSR2009_Oct20.shp were not to a fine enough scale it was determined that the best update would be to edit the existing Loxahatchee River features from the original WILDRIVER_AUG05 layer to better fit the correct designated reach. Loxahatchee River Designated Reach: May 17, 1985. From Riverbend Park downstream to Jonathan Dickinson State Park. Classification/Mileage: Wild — 1.3 miles; Scenic — 5.8 miles; Recreational — 0.5 miles; Total — 7.6 miles. - GeoPlan downloaded and reviewed the following report in order to help determine the correct extent of the Loxahatchee River features. Loxahatchee River Wild & Scenic River Management Plan http://www.loxahatcheeriver.org/pdf/LRNWSRMP_1.pdf Page 137 of 166 : Loxahatchee River Corridor Classifications (Figure 2). The federally designated Wild and Scenic Corridor lies along the middle portion of the Northwest Fork of the Loxahatchee River. This fork extends from its headwaters in the Loxahatchee and Hungryland Sloughs downstream to its merger with the other two tributaries near Jupiter Inlet. Using Figure 2 from the Loxahatchee River Wild & Scenic River Management Plan (LRNWSRMP_1.pdf) GeoPlan edited the Loxahatchee River features from the WILDRIVER_AUG05 to fit the correct extent of the designated section of the Loxahatchee River. During this edit many features that fell outside the designated reach were deleted. - GeoPlan then renamed the updated version of WILDRIVER_AUG05 to WILDRIVER_OCT09. - GeoPlan updated the attribute table for the newly added features. - GeoPlan added and populated the following fields: SFWMD_NAME was renamed to RIVER_NAME, DESIGNATE, DESCRIPT, FGDLAQDATE.
