Wellfield Protection Area C Miami-Dade County
About This Dataset
This dataset shows the protected zones around Miami-Dade's drinking water wells, where hazardous materials and waste are restricted to keep your tap water safe. The boundaries are based on how water naturally flows through the underground aquifer, so knowing if you're in one of these areas matters if you operate a business, manage a property, or are planning construction.
Why This Matters
- A small business owner checking if their location is in a wellfield protection area before storing cleaning chemicals or other hazardous materials on-site
- A homeowner or developer reviewing property restrictions before purchasing land or planning renovation work that might require special permits
- A contractor determining if a construction project needs additional environmental oversight or is prohibited in a sensitive water protection zone
