The St. Johns River Water Management District will hold a public event to recognize its partnerships with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, the cities of DeLand, Deltona, DeBary and Sanford, and Volusia County to implement reclaimed water cost-share projects in the Blue Spring springshed. These important projects will help meet the adopted minimum flows and levels (MFLs) for Blue Spring and will protect and enhance manatee habitat in the spring run. The event also will celebrate the recently adopted Blue Spring MFL prevention and recovery strategy. The strategy, developed collaboratively between the District, local governments and water suppliers, provides assurances that Blue Spring and several Volusia County lakes will achieve their MFLs and supports continued economic growth in and around Volusia County. Note: One or more District Governing Board members may be in attendance at the event.
