Water table in the surficial aquifer and potentiometric surface of the Floridan Aquifer in selected well fields, west-central Florida, May 1977
January 1, 1977
The coastal parts of Pasco, Pinellas and Hillsborough are undergoing extensive urban development. The Floridan aquifer is the area 's principal water supply. Potentiometric and water-table maps were prepared in order to determine the effect of groundwater withdrawals in selected well fields in west-central Florida. These maps were prepared in May 1977 to capture the annual low-water-level period. Declines in the potentiometric surface ranged from 3 feet in the Starkey well field to 25 feet in the Sun City well field. (Woodard-USGS)
