DEP Helps Fund Project to Protect and Recharge Wakulla County’s Aquifer

Groundbreaking Ceremony for Wakulla County Golf Course Project:

DEP recently awarded Wakulla County over $4.9 million to replace the irrigation system and install rapid infiltration basins (RIBS) for effluent disposal at the Wakulla County Golf Course. The funding was awarded through DEP's Alternative Water Supply Program and came from State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds and Springs Funds. Projects funded through this program prioritize regional projects in the areas of greatest need and projects that provide the most significant benefit to the environment.
