Dear Members,
October in Review

A special Thank You to SRWMD for hosting our October meeting and continuing
education course. If you missed it and you are working on obtaining your contractor's
license and would like more info, please contact Warren Zwanka. In support of our
chapter, the Florida Groundwater Association has made a gracious donation to our
trailer fund. I truly appreciate their generosity and support for this project. The sale price
for the old utility trailer has been set at $2500 and is currently available for purchase.
Interested parties, please contact Russell Hook. On Oct 29 th , SRWMD hosted a meeting
with FGWA and FDEP. Various representatives gathered to discuss the Proposed OFS
and LSFIR Regulatory Strategies. It was an informative introductory meeting and
opened the door for good communication within all parties moving forward.

This Month

Our November elections will be held at the Bell Community Center on Nov 21 st . All
officers and board members are running unopposed. Additionally that evening, we will
have a traditional Thanksgiving Dinner. All members and their families are welcome to

come celebrate. Please bring a side or dessert to share.

Looking Ahead

The NCFWWA Annual Christmas Party will be December 19 th at the McIntosh
Community Center. Catering will be provided by Pearl's Country Store. We will continue
our White Elephant Gift Exchange tradition. We hope you are planning to attend.

Suwannee River Water Management District Update



Suwannee River Water
Management District Update
November 2024

FALL BACK to EASTERN STANDARD TIME
Daylight Saving Time ended on Nov. 3 and the extra hour
of rest was greatly appreciated, as is the cooler weather.
With the cooler weather and shorter days, our yard plants
and landscape growth has slowed or gone completely
dormant. This is the time of year when we all “fall back” our
irrigation systems to water no more than once a week.
Cutting back our irrigation during this time of the year not
only saves water but also strengthens lawns and plants by
reducing the risk of mold, fungus, weak roots, weeds and
pests.
The District watering restrictions during Eastern Standard
Time (Nov through mid-March) limit irrigation to one day
per week as follows:
 Saturday for residential addresses ending in odd numbers or
with no address
 Sunday for residential addresses ending in even numbers
 Tuesday for non-residential properties
 Irrigation is not allowed between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. unless
you’re using micro or drip irrigation.

[40B-2.041(9)(d), F.A.C.]
Let’s all do our part to keep our North Central Florida water
resources strong into the future, for nature and for people.
