Florida's population has grown at a rapid rate or nearly 6 per-

ms is an increase of almat 600 percent.
Agricultural
Agriculture is the largest of all voter users in Florida. Even
with abundant annual rainfall, there is not always sufficient soil nois-
tnre at the propentine i'br optima croy promotion. For this reason,
irrigation is increasing in importance. A survey or county agents by the
Florida Agricultural Extension Service in 1956 revealed that out of
16, 58h,ooo acres or productive farm land and posture (about as percent or
the state's total area), about 71:2,000 acres were subJect to irrigation.
It was estimated that the average daily communion of water for irriga-
tion purposes amounted to 1,182 million gallons per day.
he enter requiremnts for irrigation in 1970 or beyond are hard
to estimate. However, in revieving the present trend to supplemental irrio
gation and water level control on agricultural lands, there rill be a con-
tinned increase in the demand for water for ayieulture. Of the 1b,279,000
acres under production in 1956, 17 percent was subject to irrigation.
Asstccing uniform increases in the acreage of vegetable, citrcs, and
other crops and naintaining the same percentage irrigated, the estimated
water requirements for 1970 will average 2,200 million gallons per m.
Industrial
Although Florida is 12th along the states in population, it is
25th in manufacturing eaployznent. Industry today, provides one out of
every seven Jobs in Florida, a proportion that has not changed greatly
in the last 10 years. However, manufacturing is double uhat it was a
decade ago, and as an industrial state, Florida is gaining steadily on
the nest of the country.
Industry is not very diversified. About two-thirds of the
industrial mloynant can be found in only five major. lines: food pro-
cessing (including canning), lumber, pulp and paper, chemicals and tobacco
products. The norida Developant Omission believes the makeup of Flo-
rida's industry 10 years from nos will undoubtedly shes electronics,
scientific instruments, building materials, natal fabrication and turni-
ture and fixtures to be much more important than today. Bovever, these
particular industries are not generally know as big vater users.
the present naJor industrial water users be placed in one
of four categories: (1) electric power production, (2 pulp end paper
nanufocture and general chemical industry, (3) citrus processing and (h)
mining. It can be anticipated that the use of water by these industries
will increase as the industries themselves amend.

categories as developed tron data submitted to the Florida Hater Resources

The pulp and paper and chemical industry use large quantities
of voter. In more recent years, these industries have incorporated better
housekeeping and water conservation nessmes so that the quantity or water
used and volxnee or veste discharged have not increased at the ease rate
as plant capacity has expanded.
A somewhat similar statement can be nede for the mod process-
ing industry. The citrus canning industry has been making sole progress
toward reducing the values and concentration or its waste.
water used in mining operations is for hydraulic dredging and
the operation or the washers and ninerel separators. Heteriale eined in-

Florida's 1500 niles of shoreline and 1800 miles or unmoved
waterways, together with the thousands of lakes and dozens of springs
already mentioned have proved to he the topocrephic features that have
aade Florida an attractive vacation and residential state. it will be
the presence of these natural vaterveys in a fresh unpolluted condition
that will he the hey attraction in the rum dele of the state.
without them, the state would not he Florida in climate, nor in physical
attractiveness.
Florida's waters are used for a wrisd of activities. Ana;

fishing; arming; scenic and esthetic chaos-at. It is mssibla to

State and local governments have each concerted efforts to

Second in tonnage is the intra-coastal waterway along the Atlantic coast
from Fernandina to Key Heat.
Use of these waterways, harbors and rivers and lakes of the
state by recreational boating has reached proportions that vere not con.
sidered probable a few years ago. men vith the extensive van-ma,
there is a need to plan now to provide waterways for mture demands. Coa-

The enount 0! money spent to use Floride's waters for reoreep

With a normally bountiiul supply or water, it vould appear thst
florida would not suffer frorn a water shorth ccaned with other states.
hovever, because of the porous geology of the state and the neldistribu-

problems. lbo such water in the wrong place, at the wrong tine, coupled
viththe uorks otnsnuhichhsve encisavoredtoput the landto nevuses
