Potentiometric surface of the Floridan Aquifer, Southwest Florida Water Management District, September 1979

A September 1979 potentiometric-surface map of the Southwest Florida Water Management District depicts the annual high water-level period. Potentiometric levels increased 1 to 20 feet between May 1979 and September 1979, in the citrus and farming sections of southern Hillsborough, northern Hardee, southwestern Polk, northwestern DeSoto, and Manatee Counties. Water levels in these areas are widely affected by pumping for irrigation and have the greatest range in fluctuations. Water-level increases ranged from 0 to 7 feet in coastal, northern, and southern areas of the Water Management District. Generally, potentiometric levels were higher than previous September levels due to heavy rains in August and September. (USGS)

Hydrologic overlay maps of the Titusville Quadrangle, Brevard County, Florida

Brevard County is an area of some 1,300 square miles located on the east coast of central Florida. The Titusville quadrangle, in northern Brevard, includes part of the Atlanta Coastal Ridge, an area of relatively high sand ridges that are generally above 30 feet in altitude (sheet 1). Approximately the western one third of the quadrangle is in relatively low marshlands of the St. Johns River valley. The eastern part of the quadrangle contains estuarine waters of the Indian River and a small portion of the John F. Kennedy Space Center on Merritt Island.
