1. Executive Summary
The purpose of Water 2070 is to explore the impact on water demand of alternative future population distribution scenarios that accommodate Florida’s projected 2070 population. The land use scenarios came from the companion study, Florida 2070. Complete results and methodologies are described in the Florida 2070 Technical Report (Carr and Zwick, 2016). Both the Florida 2070 and Water 2070 projects are a joint effort of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, 1000 Friends of Florida and the University of Florida’s Geoplan Center. Water 2070 is based upon three population scenarios identified in the companion report, Florida 2070:
2010 Baseline – the pattern of land use and associated population distribution
for the year 2010
2070 Trend – the land use pattern most likely to occur if 2070 population
projections are met and counties continue to develop at 2010 gross development
densities. The population increase projected for 2070 uses the Bureau of
Economic and Business Research medium projection of roughly 15 million
additional residents as the basis.
2070 Alternative – the land use pattern that accommodates the projected 2070
population more compactly than in the 2070 Trend and increases protected
lands.32
This report summarizes the methodology used to estimate water demand for these three population distribution scenarios. This methodology distinguishes between per capita rates of consumption in urban areas and suburban/rural areas, with the rates being higher in the latter due to the additional water demands of residential landscape irrigation. This approach was grounded in work done by the University of Florida’s Program for Resource Efficient Communities, Envision Alachua: Resource Efficiency, Establishing Water Consumption Baselines for Alachua County (Taylor et al. 2014). Water 2010 Baseline, as noted, is based on the actual 2010 population distribution as identified in Florida 2070. Water demand for this scenario was derived from the US Geological Survey report prepared by Richard Marella, Water Withdrawal, Use and Trends in Florida, 2010 (2014). A per capita gallons per day (GPD) water demand quantity was derived for each county in the state from the Marella report. This, combined with the 2010 population of each county, provided a total GPD demand. Water 2070 Baseline provides a basis of comparison for water demand projections for the two 2070 population distribution scenarios. Water 2070 Trend is based on the addition of 15 million new residents, assuming 2010 development patterns continue. The water demand projection for this scenario began with the same 2010 per capita GPD county estimates used for the 2010 Baseline, but each county’s quantities were increased to reflect its population increase and the spatial distribution of that population.
Water 2070 2
Water 2070 Alternative is based on accommodating 15 million new residents with more compact development patterns and increased protected lands. The water demand projection for this scenario began with the 2010 per capita GPD county estimates, but these estimates were conservatively reduced to reflect:
A potential reduction in water demand that would result from a more compact
pattern of development, and
Widespread adoption of water conservation measures.
The final county water demand estimates also reflect each county’s population increase and its spatial distribution within each county. The report also incorporates agriculture irrigation demand estimates for all scenarios. These were derived from the Florida Statewide Agriculture Irrigation Demand study (Balmoral Group, 2015), which addressed water demand for crop, livestock and aquaculture for the period from 2015 to 2035. Statewide Water Demand estimates are summarized in Table 1 and Figure 1 for the three scenarios, distinguishing between the water demand for development and agricultural irrigation but excluding water demand for mining and power generation. It reveals a substantial increase in total demand for both 2070 scenarios, but the more compact pattern of development and increased water conservation measures incorporated into the modeling assumptions for the Alternative result in an estimated development-related demand savings of roughly 1.7 billion GPD from the Trend. The Alternative scenario has an increase in agricultural irrigation of approximately 536 million GPD over the Trend scenario. This results from the fact that substantial acres of irrigated agricultural land is protected in the Alternative scenario. Table 1.

As described above, this study only examines two categories of water use on the demand side, water to support development and water to support agriculture, leaving other demand numbers unprojected. Of particular concern, and not within the scope and budget of this project, is the water needed for the health and function of natural systems. Key observations from this study include:
1) Water 2070 Trend reflects that population growth, water use habits and irrigation
will increase development-related demand for freshwater in Florida by as much as 100 percent over the 2010 Baseline.
2) Water 2070 Alternative shows that if more compact development patterns, increased land conservation, and water conservation measures are adopted, there is the potential to decrease total water demand for development from the Trend projections. The 2070 Alternative will have roughly 27% less development-related water demand than the 2070 Trend.
3) Because Water 2070 Alternative has more area classified as urban than does the Water 2070 Trend (due to the more compact development), the per capita development-related demand for the Alternative is less than the Trend.
4) Statewide agriculture irrigation demand in the 2070 Alternative is slightly greater than in the 2010 Baseline because irrigated agricultural lands are protected from development in the Alternative scenario.
5) Total water demand is greatest in the Central Region, followed by the South, Northeast and then the Panhandle in all scenarios. This is correlated with population.
6) Agriculture irrigation demand remains relatively unchanged in the Panhandle and Northeast Regions across all the scenarios, suggesting that projected development will not significantly impact irrigated agricultural lands. The Trend scenario results in a decrease in agriculture demand in the Central and South Regions due to the projected loss of agricultural land.

2. Introduction
The purpose of Water 2070 is to explore the impact on water demand of alternative future population distribution scenarios that accommodate Florida’s projected 2070 population. The land use scenarios came from the companion study, Florida 2070. Complete results and methodologies are described in the Florida 2070 Technical Report (Carr and Zwick, 2016). Both the Florida 2070 and Water 2070 projects are a joint effort of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, 1000 Friends of Florida and the University of Florida’s Geoplan Center. Water Demand Water 2070 is based upon three population scenarios identified in the companion report, Florida 2070:
2010 Baseline – the pattern of land use and associated population distribution
for the year 2010
2070 Trend – the land use pattern most likely to occur if 2070 population
projections are met and counties continue to develop at 2010 gross development
densities. The population increase projected for 2070 uses the Bureau of
Economic and Business Research medium projection of roughly 15 million
additional residents as the basis.
2070 Alternative – the land use pattern that accommodates the projected 2070
population more compactly than in the 2070 Trend and increases protected
lands.
This report summarizes the methodology used to estimate water demand for these three population distribution scenarios. This methodology distinguishes between per capita rates of consumption in urban areas and suburban/rural areas, with the rates being higher in the latter due to the additional water demands of residential landscape irrigation. This approach was grounded in work done by the University of Florida’s Program for Resource Efficient Communities, Envision Alachua: Resource Efficiency, Establishing Water Consumption Baselines for Alachua County (Taylor et al. 2014). Water 2010 Baseline, as noted, is based on the actual 2010 population distribution as identified in Florida 2070. Water demand for this scenario was derived from the US Geological Survey report prepared by Richard Marella, Water Withdrawal, Use and Trends in Florida, 2010 (2014). A per capita gallons per day (GPD) water demand quantity was derived for each county in the state from the Marella report. This, combined with the 2010 population of each county, provided a total GPD demand. Water 2070 Baseline provides a basis of comparison for water demand projections for the two 2070 population distribution scenarios. Water 2070 Trend is based on the addition of 15 million new residents, assuming 2010 development patterns continue. The water demand projection for this scenario began with the same 2010 per capita GPD county estimates used for the 2010 Baseline, but
Water 2070 5
each county’s quantities were increased to reflect its population increase and the spatial distribution of that population. Water 2070 Alternative is based on accommodating 15 million new residents with greater infill and redevelopment in existing communities, more compact patterns for new development, and increased protected lands. The water demand projection for this scenario began with the 2010 per capita GPD county estimates, but these estimates were conservatively reduced to reflect:
A potential reduction in water demand that would result from a more compact
pattern of development, and
Widespread adoption of water conservation measures.
The final county water demand estimates also reflect each county’s population increase and its spatial distribution within each county. The report also incorporates agriculture water demand estimates for agricultural irrigation for all scenarios. These were derived from the Florida Statewide Agriculture Irrigation Demand study (Balmoral Group, 2015), which study addressed water demand for crop, livestock and aquaculture for the period from 2015 to 2035. The mapping and modeling undertaken in this study primarily used a 30 meter x 30 meter (approximately ¼ acre) grid or cells. Data from the Florida Geographic Data Library (FGDL) was used extensively.
3. A Word on Water Supply Modelling water supply is an extremely complex endeavor well beyond the scope and budget of this study. If one assumes water mining (taking more water from groundwater sources than is replenished) is unsustainable and that the environmental and financial costs of desalinization are too great to employ, then Florida must live off a water budget based on annual rainfall. However, as total annual rainfall is not a constant amount, water storage for the years of below normal annual rainfall should also be factored in. A gross simplification of that budget is in Table 2. Table 2. Simplified water budget for Florida
Supply Demand
Average annual rainfall
Annual water for development Annual water for agriculture
Annual water for mining Annual water for power generation Annual water for natural systems (including evapotranspiration and
freshwater flows into estuarine and marine environments)
Water 2070 6
As described above, this study tackles two estimates on the demand side, water to support development and water to support agriculture, leaving many additional demand numbers unprojected. Of particular concern, and not within the scope and budget of this project, is the annual water needed for the health and function of natural systems.
4. Water Demand for the 2010 Baseline Per Capita Demand – This was based on estimates of per capita water demand for each county from USGS data found in Water Withdrawals, Use, and Trends in Florida, 2010, Report 2014-5088 (see Appendix 2):
1. The 2010 USGS estimate of recreational landscape irrigation per county was
divided by the 2010 county population resulting in a per capita recreational
landscape irrigation value (e.g., 6 GPD/capita for Alachua County).
2. The 2010 USGS Public Supply Gross GPD Per Capita. (e.g., 129 GPD/capita for
Alachua County). The public supply per capita includes water delivered to all
other users, e.g., commercial and industrial users, as well as system losses.
3. Because the water demand for mining skewed the results significantly, it was not
included in these calculations. And for the 2070 scenarios it is unclear whether
water for mining will still be in as high a demand and in the same counties.
Appendix 3 includes a list of those counties with 2010 mining demand taken
directly from the USGS report.
4. Freshwater used in power generation was not included in the per capita demand
calculations. As much as 98% of the freshwater used is returned to its source,
so little water is lost to other potential uses. (Marella, personal communication
7/2016)
Agricultural water demand – Estimates were based on the Department of Agriculture
and Consumer Services’ Florida Statewide Agricultural Irrigation Demand (FSAID)
study. In this study the Balmoral group estimated irrigation demand for 2015
agricultural lands in three categories, crop, livestock and aquaculture lands. The
volumes for each census block group and each county were summed to give 2010
estimated agriculture demand in GPD.
Urban and Suburban/Rural Demand Differential - The Taylor et al 2014 Envision
Alachua study suggests that a distinction should be drawn between water demand in
urban areas and suburban/rural areas. This was achieved by first identifying urban and
suburban/rural census block groups. After evaluation of multiple block group values,
those with >=2000 people/square mile were determined to be urban, while those with
less than 2000 people/square mile were identified as suburban/rural. Table 3 shows the
breakdown of the population totals and percentages in each category for the three
scenarios. And Figure 2 maps the urban census block groups for the 2010 Baseline.

Calibration of Statewide Factors to distinguish between urban and suburban/rural
water demand - The second step was to use Alachua county data from Taylor et al. to
calibrate statewide factors that could subsequently be used to modify the per capita
GPD figures for each county. Determining these factors was based on the following
assumptions:
Water demand from Taylor et al. for single family units with irrigation plus single
family units without irrigation is roughly equivalent to water demand generated in
suburban/rural census block groups, and
Water demand from Taylor et al. for apartments plus condos is roughly
equivalent to water demand generated in urban census block groups.
Table 1 (page 15) from Taylor et al. was used to derive a weighted average GPD for
Single Family and for Apartment/Condos and then a ratio between those two weighted
averages was calculated. The suburban/rural – urban ratio that resulted is 2.26 to 1
(Table 4).

Ratio 2.26 1 *From Taylor et al., Table 1, page 15; GPPD numbers derived assuming 2.5 people/household in SFD homes and 2.0 people/household in apartments and condos.
Next, factors that could be applied to each county’s per capita GPD demand for the two block group classifications were tested, maintaining the 2.26:1 ratio. Factors of 1.4:0.6 suburban/rural to urban proved to be most appropriate. This was determined by using data for Alachua County from Taylor et al. as described below.
Water 2070 9
Calculations for Alachua County - Alachua County public supply water demand
calculated for 2010 in the USGS study served as the starting point (Table 5). This
number was calculated based on a 129 GPD per capita demand regardless of the
population distribution between urban and suburban/rural block groups. It is the total
GPD demand of 31,906,344 that must be matched when dividing the county block
groups into urban and suburban/rural, multiplying each block group each class by a
GPD value and summing the two.

Table 6 uses the > = 2000 people/square mile threshold to divide the county block groups into urban and suburban/rural, the USGS 2010 average public supply GPD/capita and the factors of 0.6 (urban) and 1.4 (suburban/rural) to generate a total 2010 GPD demand. Given the result is roughly equivalent to that estimated for the county by USGS without distinguishing between per capita demand for urban and suburban/rural census block groups, it was determined the factors of 0.6 and 1.4 could reasonably be applied to urban and suburban/rural per capita GPD demand rates for all counties. Table 6. 2010 Baseline Public Supply for Alachua County using >= 2000 threshold to determine Urban Block Groups

Totals 247,336
31,485,082
Calculations for Block Groups - Using the > = 2000 people/square mile threshold, the 1.4 factor for suburban/rural census block groups, and the 0.6 factor for urban census block groups, demand estimates were generated as follows:
1. Calculate the population of each suburban/rural and urban block group for each
county
2. Multiply each county’s suburban/rural block group populations by the 1.4 factor
and then by the USGS county average per capita public supply GPD
3. Multiply each suburban/rural block group population by the recreation landscape
average GPD/capita, to yield recreation landscape demand.
4. Sum these two totals for each suburban/rural block group to yield development
demand.
5. Repeat steps 2 – 4 for urban block groups, using the .6 factor.
Water 2070 10
6. The sum for each block group (public supply + recreation demand) equals total
development demand.
7. Agricultural demand as described above is added to the development total for
each block group.
Calculations for Counties – Census block group totals for each county were summed
to arrive at county demand for development, agriculture and both combined.
Mapping - To map the 2010 Baseline results, the GPD development demand and the
GPD agriculture demand for each census block groups were summed. Given that each
block group has a different area, the total block group daily demand was divided by the
acres of each block group, yielding gallons/day/acre (GPDA). These are the values
represented in the Baseline map series. A geometric scale was used in mapping
because of the large range of high and low GPDA values.
5. Water Demand for the 2070 Trend Scenario
Agricultural water demand – Estimates of 2070 demand were based on the
Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services’ Florida Statewide Agricultural
Irrigation Demand (FSAID) study. The study’s 2035 GPD demand projections (the
latest projected in the study) and associated spatial extent of agriculture lands served
as the starting point. However, because the Trend scenario allowed any agricultural
land (irrigated or not) to become developed if needed to accommodate the projected 15
million population increase, the total acres of agricultural land in the Trend scenario was
roughly 2 million less than in the 2010 Baseline. This results in lower statewide GPD
demand for agriculture in the 2070 Trend than in the 2010 Baseline with the same trend
occurring in many census block groups and counties.
Per capita demand for Block Groups - Exactly the same methodology and values
were used to estimate development-related demand for the 2070 Trend as for the 2010
Baseline. This was done to demonstrate how demand would increase as a function of
population growth while maintaining the status quo patterns of development and rates of
water consumption.
Calculations for Counties – Census block group totals for each county were summed
to arrive at county demand for development, agriculture and both combined.
Mapping - To map the 2070 Trend results, the GPD development demand and the
GPD agriculture demand for each census block group were summed. Given that each
block group has a different area, the total block group daily demand was divided by the
acres of each block group, yielding gallons/day/acre (GPDA). These are the values
represented in the Trend map series. The same geometric scale was used for mapping
the Trend as for the Baseline.
Water 2070 11
6. Water Demand for the 2070 Alternative Scenario Agricultural water demand – Estimates of 2070 demand were based on the
Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services’ Florida Statewide Agricultural
Irrigation Demand (FSAID) study. The study’s 2035 GPD demand projections (the
latest projected in the study) and associated spatial extent of agriculture lands served
as the starting point. One of the key modeling assumptions distinguishing the
Alternative scenario from the Trend scenario was the protection from development of all
irrigated agriculture lands. This resulted in approximately 1.3 million more agriculture
acres in the Alternative than in the Trend. So not surprising, the GPD agriculture
demand is greater in the 2070 Alternative than in the 2070 Trend (Table 7). It is also
greater than the Baseline. This is attributable to the fact that in the FSAID study greater
irrigated agricultural demand was projected for 2035 than existed in 2015.

Agriculture Demand (GPD)
2,129,941,436
1,614,305,600
2,150,253,570
Calculations for Block Groups – To project development demand for each block group in the Alternative scenario, it was assumed that per capita GPD demand for each county was reduced by 20%. In Taylor et al., they predict the savings from water conservation might be as great as 40%, but a more conservation 20% was used in this study. Otherwise, the same > = 2000 people/square mile threshold, the 1.4 factor for suburban/rural census block groups, and the 0.6 factor for urban census block groups, were used to estimate demand as follows:
1. Calculate the population of each suburban/rural and urban block group for each
county
2. Multiply each county’s suburban/rural block group populations by the 1.4 factor
and then by the USGS county average per capita public supply GPD reduced by
20%
3. Multiply each suburban/rural block group population by the recreation landscape
average GPD/capita, to yield recreation landscape demand.
4. Sum these two totals for each suburban/rural block group to yield development
demand.
5. Repeat steps 2 – 4 for urban block groups, using the .6 factor.
6. The sum for each block group (public supply + recreation demand) equal total
development demand.
7. Agricultural demand as described above is added to the development total for
each block group.
Calculations for Counties – Census block group totals for each county were summed
to arrive at county demand for development, agriculture and both combined.

Mapping - To map the 2070 Alternative results, the GPD development demand and the
GPD agriculture demand for each census block group were summed. Given that each
block group has a different area, the total block group daily demand was divided by the
acres of each block group, yielding gallons/day/acre (GPDA). These are the values
represented in the Trend map series. The same geometric scale was used for mapping
the Alternative as for the Trend and the Baseline.
7. Results, Comparisons, and Observations State and regional water demand for the 2010 Baseline, 2070 Trend and 2070 Alternative are mapped using gallons per day per acre (GPDA) per census block group. The visual comparison of these maps reveals significant differences among the three scenarios and among the four regions of the State. Supporting tables and graphs assist with comparing the three scenarios and are particularly useful for comparing 2070 Trend with 2070 Alternative.
STATEWIDE RESULTS
From the maps and comparative data below it is clear that the 2070 Alternative scenario accommodates the projected population increase with significantly lower water demand for development, and results in greater water demand for agriculture than 2070 Trend (Table 8). The development savings can be attributed to two factors:
1. Its more compact development pattern (i.e., more of the future population are in
urban block groups than in suburban/rural block groups) which creates less water
demand than a more sprawling development pattern, and
2. The reduction in per capita demand rates assumed for this scenario. The
increased agricultural demand resulted from the protection from development
that was afforded irrigated agriculture lands identified in the FSAID study (The
Balmoral Group, 2015).

Figures 9 and 10 and Table 9 provide comparative results for the 4 regions of the state for each scenario. More detailed results for each region, including county demand totals are provided in Appendix 4. All four regions demonstrate a similar pattern for total demand (development plus agriculture) among the three scenarios (Figure 9 and Table 9), with the 2010 Baseline having the lowest total water demand, and the Alternative having the lowest demand of the two 2070 scenarios. It is also clear that the counties grouped in the Panhandle have the lowest total demand, followed by the Northeast Region. The Central Region has the greatest total demand in all scenarios.

Figure 10 shows the development and agriculture demand for each region, revealing a more complex pattern. In the Panhandle and Northeast Regions, development-related demand in all three scenarios is significantly greater than the agriculture demand, and the agriculture demand is relatively flat for all scenarios. This suggests that the irrigated agriculture lands in these regions are not likely to be significantly impacted by projected development.

However, the results for the Central and South Regions differ. In the Central Region, the Trend development-related demand is roughly double the Baseline development demand and even the Alternative development demand is projected to exceed 2 billion GPD. These high development demand projections reflect that the Central Region has the highest projected population increase of all the regions. Because of this, agricultural lands will be lost to development in both 2070 scenarios. This results in lower agriculture irrigation demand in the Central Florida Region in both 2070 scenarios. The South Region Baseline scenario has a higher agriculture demand than development demand. It is the only region and scenario in which this occurs. This is attributable to the large acreage in the region currently under irrigation including portions of the Everglades Agricultural Area and the nurseries in south Miami-Dade County. In the 2070 scenarios, the development demand outstrips the agriculture demand, but agriculture demand in the Alternative scenario is projected to be greater than for the 2010 Baseline. This results because additional irrigated agricultural lands were projected to be added in the South Region by 2035 in the FSAID study (The Balmoral Group, 2015). Figure 10.

OBSERVATIONS One of the biggest issues facing Florida today is the availability of sufficient water to meet the needs of people, agriculture and the environment. Diminishing water supply and declining quality combined with a growing population make the historic competition between users even more intense. In poll after poll, protection of drinking water consistently ranks as a top environmental concern for the public. Clean and abundant water also is needed to ensure that Florida’s multi-billion dollar agriculture and tourism industries—the two mainstays of this state’s economy—remain strong and viable over the long term. Water 2070 reveals both challenges and opportunities for managing water demand in the future:
1) Water 2070 Trend reflects that population growth, water use habits and irrigation will increase development-related demand for freshwater in Florida by as much as 100 percent over the 2010 Baseline.
2) Water 2070 Alternative shows that if more compact development patterns, increased land conservation, and water conservation measures are adopted, there is the potential to decrease total water demand for development from the Trend projections. The 2070 Alternative will have roughly 27% less development-related water demand than the 2070 Trend.
3) Because Water 2070 Alternative has more area classified as urban than does the Water 2070 Trend (due to the more compact development), the per capita development-related demand for the Alternative is less than the Trend.
4) Statewide agriculture irrigation demand in the 2070 Alternative is slightly greater than in the 2010 Baseline because irrigated agricultural lands are protected from development in the Alternative scenario.
5) Total water demand is greatest in the Central Region, followed by the South, Northeast and then the Panhandle in all scenarios. This is correlated with population.
6) Agriculture irrigation demand remains relatively unchanged in the Panhandle and Northeast Regions across all the scenarios, suggesting that projected development will not significantly impact irrigated agricultural lands. The Trend scenario results in a decrease in agriculture demand in the Central and South Regions due to the projected loss of agricultural land.
The results of this study and findings in the Florida Conservation Coalition’s Water Conservation White Paper (March 11, 2014), indicate there are two basic options: 1) to increase supply (through alternative water supply such as reclaiming water and desalinization plants) or 2) to reduce demand (through water conservation and increased efficiency). While desalinization is a multi-billion dollar proposition that raises serious environmental concerns, the other options – water conservation, increased efficiency, and reclaiming water – all provide significant and cost-effective results. As Florida’s 2070 population grows by another 15 million residents, what can realistically be done to reduce water demand and increase water supply to ensure sufficient water exists for people, farming and nature?
Water 2070 22
Reduce Water Demand Water 2070 Alternative shows that the combination of a modest reduction of 20% in per capita rate of water consumption along with more compact development patterns and increased conservation lands as outlined in Florida 2070 reduces statewide development-related water demand by 27% when compared to the Water 2070 Trend. Several studies indicate that reducing the use of and increasing the efficiency of automated irrigation systems would result in a significant reduction in development-related water demand in Florida. According to the University of Florida IFAS Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Program (Landscaping Principles cards at http://www.floridayards.org/landscape/FFY-TipCards.pdf), at least 50% of water used by households is used outdoors for landscape irrigation. The Taylor et al. report, Establishing Water Consumption Baselines for Alachua County (2014) reports that Alachua County single family homes that have an automated irrigation system (indicated either by a sprinkler system or irrigation meter) consumed an average of 358 gallons of water per day (GPD), while those without such a system consumed an average of 190 GPD, a 47% reduction. Another study by the same group, Reduced Impact Development Practices at ‘Restoration’ (Jones et al. 2009) reveals that installing soil moisture sensors which override timer-based controls on irrigation systems can reduce the amount of water used for landscape irrigation by more than 50%.
Thus, the single most effective strategy to reduce water demand in Florida is to significantly reduce the amount of water used for landscape irrigation.
Not only does this conserve water, but it also will result in savings to homeowners through reduced water bills. Additionally, if enough people conserve water, community costs associated with supplying water and addressing sewage and stormwater can be significantly reduced, resulting in tax savings. Two statewide initiatives already exist to promote significant reductions in water demand in Florida:
Florida Water Star (www.floridawaterstar.com) is this state’s water conservation certification program for new and existing homes and commercial developments and addresses both outdoor and indoor water conservation. Initially established by the St. Johns River Water Management District in 2006, it became a statewide initiative in 2012.
Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ (www.ffl.ifas.ufl.edu/), a joint program of the University of Florida’s IFAS Extension and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, provides residents, developers and landscaping professionals with water conservation and other strategies to better protect Florida’s environment.
Water 2070 23
But much more needs to be done to expand awareness of and participation in these programs. Efforts to reduce residential water demand in particular should also focus on reaching Homeowner Associations and landscape professionals who often promote irrigated landscapes. Providing meaningful incentives to increase participation in the above programs is essential. An example of a successful incentive program is the South Florida Water Management District’s Water Savings Incentive Program (Water Sip) which funds such conservation measures as rain and soil moisture sensors, water conserving appliances, rain barrels and the like. In another example, the City of Clermont requires that all new homes be dual metered for potable water, with one meter for inside use and one for outdoor use. Homeowners are given a “budget” for outdoor use, with disincentives for those who exceed that budget. Some states require water efficiency standards be met through their state building codes resulting in uniform standards statewide. For example, Georgia and North Carolina require the use of Water Sense-labeled products in new development. In Florida, Appendix F of the State Building Code recommends that irrigation systems be installed to meet certain efficiency standards, but it is not required. Additionally, Chapter 373.62 in the Florida Statutes requires “any person who purchases and installs an automatic sprinkler system after May 1, 1991, shall install a rain sensor device or switch which will override the irrigation cycle of the sprinkler system when adequate rainfall has occurred.” Some counties have melded requirements and incentives to increase water efficiency. In 2015, Alachua County adopted a new landscape irrigation efficiency code for unincorporated areas. Among other things it requires all new irrigation systems installed after April 1, 2016 be approved by the County and inspected. Professionals installing or maintaining irrigation systems within the county must register their business. County inspection fees on newly installed systems are waived for irrigation professionals who are certified to inspect their own work or who hire a Florida Water Star Certifier for the inspection. Certain county fees also are waived for new construction that achieves Florida Water Star Certification resulting in savings in both initial construction costs and long-term water bills. In the Orlando area, the Toho Water Authority has mandated compliance with Florida Water Star standards as a condition of service for all new residential construction, and preliminary results are showing considerable water bill savings for homeowners. As shown in the Water 2070 Alternative, significant water savings result from more compact development patterns. Establishing Water Consumption Baselines for Alachua County (Taylor et al. 2014) shows that on average, apartments and condominiums represent 41% of the total residential sample but use only 20% of the water, showing significant water savings associated with increased density. Not only does more compact development help with reducing water demand, there are also economic benefits for the community and developer alike. Reduced Impact Development Practices at ‘Restoration,’ (Jones et al. 2009) notes that the redesign of the 3500-acre Volusia county development, Restoration, from typical sprawl to compact development would result in a net savings to the developer of $14 million through
Water 2070 24
eliminating the golf course, reducing earthwork by using low impact development strategies, and reducing roadways that results in reduced stormwater infrastructure. Finally, a brief note on water budgeting is in order. With the increased pressure brought by an additional 15 million residents by 2070, it becomes more important to monitor the amount of groundwater used by major permitted water users and require them to submit goal-based water conservation plans as part of the permit approval process. Increase Water Supply The above strategies all relate to reducing water demand which remains the most cost-effective approach. With regard to increasing water supply in Florida, viable options are available. Some communities have already implemented innovative water reclamation efforts geared to irrigation. As one example, the City of Pompano Beach constructed the OASIS water reuse plant to treat wastewater to higher standards, and is incentivizing single-family residential connections to the plant to use this reduced cost, reclaimed water for outdoor irrigation. Another example can be found on the campus of the University of Florida where all water for irrigation comes from reclaimed water. A Few Words on Protected Lands It is important to understand the value of protected lands in this whole equation. Florida 2070 Alternative calls for the additional protection of lands on the Florida Forever Acquisition list and lands identified as Priorities 1 & 2 in the Florida Ecological Greenways Network. Figure 11. The map at left shows Florida’s protected lands (in dark green) in 2010. The map at right depicts the recommendation of Florida 2070 Alternative, which includes protected lands as of 2010 with the addition of lands included on the Florida Forever Acquisition list and lands identified as Priorities 1 & 2 in the Florida Ecological Greenways Network.
Water 2070 25
These protected lands provide boundless recreational opportunities for residents and visitors alike, and shelter and sustain Florida’s flora and fauna. They also are essential to recharge Florida’s aquifer – the source of much of the state’s water supply – and to cleanse our drinking water. While not within the scope of this study, the value of natural lands in the protection of Florida’s water supply should not be underestimated.
RECOMMENDATIONS How do we move this discussion from the theoretical to what steps actually should be taken? Below are a series of recommendations to more effectively manage Florida’s water supply for the benefit of residents, agriculture and the environment alike: Expand Public Water Conservation Efforts
Increase funding and outreach for the Florida Water Star and Florida-Friendly
Landscaping™ programs to promote greater water conservation in new and
existing development
Require Florida Friendly Landscaping™, manual irrigation, soil moisture sensors,
or comparable water conservation technology for all new development
Require permitted water users to monitor the amount of groundwater used
Partner with developers and local governments to establish conservation goals,
water budgets and water use monitoring strategies prior to the approval of new
development
Update the Florida Building Code to require indoor and outdoor water efficiency
standards for new construction and major remodeling
Adopt registration and training standards for irrigation professionals
Establish conservation rate structures that incentivize lower levels of water
consumption
Construct and incentivize the use of reclaimed water facilities
Reduce Personal Water Use
Use Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ and other measures to reduce or eliminate
landscaping water use, and seek formal Florida-Friendly Landscaping™
recognition
Lessen the need for irrigation by using the right plants in the right locations,
grouping them according to water needs, and using rain barrels or cisterns to
capture rainwater for irrigation
Reduce stormwater runoff through mulching plant beds, using porous surfaces
for patios, walkways and driveways, and creating swales or low areas to hold and
filter water on your property
If an automated irrigation system is used, ensure that it is designed and operated
to meet strict water conservation criteria including drip systems, soil moisture
sensors, automatic rain shutoff sensors and/or other technology to significantly
reduce water use
Water 2070 26
Make sure the irrigation system is calibrated correctly and check it regularly for
breaks and head alignment
Do not water if it has rained in the last 24 hours or if rain is forecast in the next 24
hours
Select Florida Water Star certified properties when purchasing a new home, and
follow Water Star guidelines when remodeling an existing home
Use Water-Sense labeled high-efficiency appliances to significantly reduce
indoor water consumption
As Florida’s population continues to grow, less water will be available for per capita human use. Now is the time to move forward on serious water conservation efforts before it is too costly, or too late. Not only is water conservation the smart thing to do, but it can result in significant savings on Floridians’ water bills and taxes. Water conservation helps to protect Florida’s rivers, lakes and aquifer – and the people, wildlife and farms that depend on them now and in the future.
