Coastal News Today | FL - Instead of building pipeline, water district needs to just say 'no' to pumping permits

District officials seem unable to say “no” to developers, farmers, water bottlers and anyone else who seeks a permit to pump groundwater, despite the reduced flows being caused as a result in the region’s rivers and springs. For example, the High Springs-based Florida Springs Institute has found that excessive groundwater pumping has reduced the Santa Fe River s flow by about 28%.
Now, to add insult to injury, district officials are suggesting that hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars be spent restoring those flows. The money would be used to build a pipeline bringing water from the Suwannee River to recharge the groundwater that flows through Ichetucknee Springs and eventually into the Santa Fe. ....

Editorial: Turn down permits, don't build pipeline

It would be laughable if it wasn’t so insulting. But don’t take our word for it.
It is crazy totally crazy, Robert Knight, executive director of the Florida Springs Institute, told Politico, which first reported the story.
“It’s a ridiculous proposal from an environmental perspective and from a cost perspective,” Ryan Smart, executive director of the Florida Springs Council, told The Sun.
Even members of the water district’s governing board questioned the idea.
You just start to wonder when you start to mess around with Mother Nature like this what the unintended consequences are, board member Virginia Sanchez said. ....

Bottle up the fees for using spring water

Florida shouldnât be giving away groundwater to profit water-bottling companies without getting money back to restore the natural springs being affected.
Proposals to charge a fee to water bottlers would help keep the cost of spring restoration projects from falling on the backs of other Florida taxpayers.
Certainly the best option would be for the state to just reject damaging permits. The excessive pumping and pollution of groundwater harms Floridaâs springs as well as the stateâs drinking water supply.
International companies are making huge profits selling that water to Floridians and other customers in plastic bottles. Nestle announced last month that it was selling its North American water brands to two private equity firms for $4.3 billion. ....
