GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within
the original data.
The SUPER Act Program is responsible for identifying areas in the state 
having drinking water contaminated as a result of leaking underground storage 
tanks, surface spills and other discharges to the environment. This program 
conducts well surveillance in potentially impacted areas, notifies the public of 
potential adverse health effects and provides assistance in obtaining alternative 
sources of drinking water.

The Florida Legislature created the State Underground Petroleum Environmental 
Response Act (SUPER Act) (Chapter 376.3071, Florida Statutes) in response to 
ground water contamination resulting from leaking underground petroleum storage 
tanks.

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:

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:
GeoPlan downloaded this dataset from the Florida Department of Health in April 
2007. The data downloaded was in shapefile format and was in the following
projection:
Albers, Datum North American 1983, Units: Meters

- All records were upcased.
- Changed original layer name from SUPERActWells to superact_w_may06
- A DESCRIPT field was added based on NAME
- A FGDLAQDATE field was added based on date GeoPlan downloaded the data
- Reprojected data to FGDL Albers HPGN
- Removed 43 points that were outside of the Florida extent due to improper geocoding
Process Date: 20070504

- Removed empty fields: Albers_X, Albers_Y, Facilty_ID, Capacity_G, Process Date: 20070515
