The Florida Springs Council is the only  statewide group focused exclusively on advocacy for our world-class springs and rivers.

The Florida Springs Council began as a consortium of member organizations from all over the state, each contributing their skills and local expertise to coordinate action in the restoration, preservation, and protection of all of Florida’s freshwater springs and the Floridan aquifer. We unite these organizations and our individual members to lobby in Tallahassee for more protective springs laws, monitor agency rulemaking,  bring legal action when necessary, and mobilize wherever a spring is under threat. 

We're going to court to overturn the Water Bottling Permit.

​

We have launched a legal challenge to the permit renewal given to Seven Springs Water Company. Seven Springs plans to provide nearly a million gallons of water per day from the Santa Fe River to Nestle’s (now called "BlueTriton") bottled water operation.

​

Stickers, magnets, kayak stickers, shirts, water bottles are available as gifts when you donate to the legal fund. Your support makes this case possible.
