During our seasonal dry months, it's especially important to remember the year round water restrictions. If you have any questions please feel free to give us a call, we would be happy to assist.
The hydrologic wet season runs from June 1st to October 31st. Since June 1, 2023, both Lee and Collier counties have only received 29.34 inches of rainfall, resulting in a rainfall deficit of 11.86 inches, which is below normal.
Groundwater levels have been declining in most of the Lower West Coast monitoring stations. Without significant rainfall, further decline in ground water levels is anticipated due to increased irrigation demands and evaporation losses that typically occur in the dry season.
Water supplies over the remainder of the dry season may decline to the extent that sufficient water will not be available to meet the present and anticipated requirements of water users while also protecting the water resources from serious harm.
