Florida's Springs Are in Crisis
Florida is home to more freshwater springs than anywhere else on Earth — over 1,000 named springs fed by the Floridan Aquifer System. They are the lifeblood of Central Florida's rivers, ecosystems, and drinking water supply.
But decades of overdevelopment, aquifer depletion, agricultural runoff, and chemical spraying have pushed Florida's springs to the breaking point. Flow rates are dropping. Algae is choking spring runs. Herbicides approved by the FWC are poisoning the very water they claim to protect.
This map is Florida's first citizen-powered water quality database — built so that every Floridian who sees something wrong can put it on the record. Permanently. Publicly. Where no agency or politician can make it disappear.
What Belongs on the Florida Water Map
If you see it in a Florida spring, river, lake, or waterway — it belongs on this map.
Algae Blooms
Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria), red tide, or unusual discoloration in springs or rivers.
Sewage & Discharge
Sewage spills, wastewater discharge, or suspicious outflows near waterways.
Spring Flow Changes
Noticeably reduced flow, dry spring vents, or sediment buildup in spring runs.
Fish Kills
Dead fish, stressed wildlife, or unusual animal behavior near water sources.
Herbicide Spraying
FWC or contractor herbicide application in or near springs, rivers, and lakes.
Pollution & Runoff
Agricultural runoff, chemical spills, construction sediment, or industrial discharge.
