Update on Adena Springs Ranch permit application

St. Johns River Water Management District staff on May 17, 2013, sent a Request for Additional Information (RAI) to Adena Springs Ranch regarding its consumptive use permit application to withdraw 5.3 million gallons of water per day in Marion County. After reviewing the applicant’s most recent submittal of information, District staff determined that additional technical information is needed regarding the application.

The applicant has until Sept. 16, 2013, to respond to the RAI or to request an extension to the response time frame.

When the application is considered complete, District staff will determine if the requested allocation of water meets District permitting criteria.

Additional information about the permit application is available on the District’s Adena Springs CUP application web page.
