Florida's water resources are one of the State's most valued assets. The State is underlain virtually everywhere by aquifers capable of yielding large quantities of freshwater to wells. Surface-water resources also are ample and include 1,700 streams and rivers and 7,800 freshwater lakes. These resources provide the water for natural and human needs in Florida. The reliance on water is increasing because of the State's growth in population, tourism, and agriculture. Population totals compiled by the U.S. Bureau of Census indicate that in 1990, Florida's population was 12.94 million and that the State ranked fourth in the nation behind California, New York, and Texas. This is an increase of 370 percent (10.17 million) from the 1950 population of 2.77 million, and a 33 percent (3.19 million) increase from the 1980 population of 9.75 million. Florida's population is projected to surpass 15 million by the year 2000, and 20 million by the year 2020. Tourism, which has always been an important part of Florida's economy, is expected to continue to grow and place increasing demands on the water resources. An estimated 41 million tourists visited Eorida during 1990. Agriculture, another important part of the economy, relies heavily on the State's water resources for irrigation of citrus, sugar cane, and vegetable crops. Florida was among the nations top ten states in agricultural production in 1990.
