Abstract:
This data set contains areas representing sensitive karst areas in the Northwest Florida Water Management District. Information on sensitive karst features is provided to facilitate compliance with the requirements of the Conditions for Issuance of and Individual Permit, Rule 62-346.301, Florida Administrative Code. Specifically, Paragraph 62-346.301(1)(i), F.A.C. requires that an activity must comply with all special Basin of geographic area criteria when it occurs in those identified areas.
Purpose:
This data provides the geographic extent for sensitive karst regions as referenced in Chapter 62-346, Paragraph 62-346.301(1)(i), Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C), and Applicant's Handbook Volume I, Section 9 and Volume II Section 17.
Supplemental_Information:
Attribute information provides a location description of all lands included in the Sensitive Karst Areas, based on the Federal Section, Township, and Range system. Parcels are described to the "Section" level, with Section lines forming the boundary for Sensitive Karst Areas. All lands within the boundaries of a listed Section are included. In some cases, all of the Sections within the boundary of a Township and Range are included. In those cases, only the Township and Range are specified.
See Appendix A of the Applicant's Handbook Volume II <http://www.nwfwmd.state.fl.us/permits/erp/erp_downloads/AH_Engineering.pdf> for an alternate view of the table.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
The PLSS data was downloaded from GeoPlan and reprojected to UTM. Regions corresponding to the NWFWMD were selected and exported.
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Using the overburden data from FAVA (Florida Aquifer Vulnerability Assessment) a union was performed to determine regions where the distance from the top of the ground to the aquifer was less than or equal to 100 feet.
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
This data set was acquired via email from Karen Kebart on 12/12/2011. When received the data was in shapefile format and in NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_16N. The data was projected to Albers HPGN.
The following qaqc steps were performed: -Used field calculator to run LTRIM command on COUNTY and TOWN_RANGE fields to remove leading spaces -Upcased all records -Added DESCRIPT item based on: COUNTY -Added FGDLAQDATE based on date acquired from source -Changed name from SensitiveKarstAreas to NWFWMD_KARST_2008

Resource_Description: DOWNLOADABLE DATA
Distribution_Liability:
The Florida Geographic Data Library is a collection of Geospatial Data compiled by the University of Florida GeoPlan Center with support from the Florida Department of Transportation. GIS data available in FGDL is collected from various state, federal, and other agencies (data sources) who are data stewards, producers, or publishers. The data available in FGDL may not be the most current version of the data offered by the data source. University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no guarantees about the currentness of the data and suggests that data users check with the data source to see if more recent versions of the data exist.
Furthermore, the GIS data available in the FGDL are provided 'as is'. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no warranties, guaranties or representations as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the data provided by the data sources. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no representations or warranties about the quality or suitability of the materials, either expressly or implied, including but not limited to any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center shall not be liable for any damages suffered as a result of using, modifying, contributing or distributing the materials.
A note about data scale:
Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes. Please be sure you are using the best available data.
1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the county level. 1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such as property parcel boundaries. 1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the multi-county or regional level. 1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the regional or state level or larger.
Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact section of this documentation. For more information regarding scale and accuracy, see our webpage at: <http://geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html>
