The attached map shows the proposed Adena Ranches well sites in Florida's Central springs region. Many lakes and creeks in the area are at unheard of lows if not dried up completely and several spring flows are at record lows including Silver Springs which is down over 50%. Using over 13 mg/d to irrigate grass for a cattle ranch is not sustainable in this area. The entire city of Ocala uses less water than this permit application is requesting. Please send your comments to St. Johns River Water Management District and help us maintain this beautiful area. Thanks!
