Abstract
Florida has more water above, below, and around it than any state in the union, and enjoys the fortunate position of having ample supplies of water to meet all foreseeable needs. This fortunate position can, however, be changed by unwise drainage practices and by overdevelopment without compensatory controls. The Central and Southern Florida Flood Control District is well started toward accomplishing control in the southeastern part of the state, but floods and droughts in recent years indicate that similar measures are needed in the west‐central and southwest sectors of the state. Studies indicate that opportunities for water control exist in the Green Swamp plateau in west‐central Florida, and efforts to take advantage of these opportunities are now being planned.
