Florida relies almost exclusively on groundwater from the Floridan Aquifer system, one of the most productive aquifers in the world. Some coastal areas use surface water from rivers and lakes. South Florida also utilizes water from Lake Okeechobee and the Everglades watershed.
Most Florida systems use conventional treatment including filtration and chlorination. Many coastal cities have invested in reverse osmosis and advanced treatment to address saltwater intrusion and naturally occurring contaminants.
Common in systems using surface water or with aging distribution systems. Hot climate and organic matter in source water increase formation of byproducts.
Naturally occurring radium and uranium in groundwater, particularly in phosphate mining regions of central Florida.
Agricultural runoff and septic systems contribute to elevated nitrates in rural areas. Karst geology allows contaminants to enter groundwater easily.
Found near military bases, airports, and former firefighting training sites. Particularly concerning in areas near Eglin AFB, Jacksonville NAS, and Tampa.
Naturally occurring in some groundwater sources. More common in deeper aquifer zones and areas with phosphate deposits.
Florida enforces federal EPA standards and has additional state requirements through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection:
Enhanced protection zones around wellfields and springs to prevent contamination of the Floridan Aquifer system.
Strict requirements for backflow prevention devices and annual testing to protect drinking water from contamination.
Enhanced reporting requirements with mandatory direct delivery to customers and online posting of annual water quality reports.

Florida water systems commonly monitor for disinfection byproducts (TTHMs and HAA5), radionuclides, nitrates, PFAS, and arsenic. Karst geology and agricultural activities contribute to unique water quality challenges.
Water quality in Florida is regulated by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), working in conjunction with the federal EPA to ensure drinking water meets all safety standards.
