Water monitoring in action! 💧🔬 Every year, SJRWMD conducts sampling across rivers, springs, lakes, canals, and groundwater stations to understand water health throughout northeast and east-central Florida.
Protecting and restoring water quality is a core mission of SJRWMD. Our network includes nearly 400 surface water sampling stations, 23 spring stations, and over 450 groundwater stations throughout our 18-county service area. Samples are collected by field staff (grab samples and vertically integrated) and analyzed by EPA-approved methods in our lab or trusted contract labs.
We also maintain over 20 continuous monitoring stations (freshwater, springs, estuaries) that record real-time water quality data to help detect changes quickly.
This monitoring is vital — it underpins our decisions about water supply, ecosystem protection, restoration projects, and regulations. To dive deeper into how we sample, analyze, and use data, click below.

🕰️ A glimpse into Florida’s river history!
In the late 1800s, steamboats like Hart’s Daily Line carried visitors and goods along the Ocklawaha River — one of the St. Johns River’s most scenic tributaries. These historic vessels helped shape early tourism and commerce in the region.
Today, the St. Johns River Water Management District continues to protect and restore the same waterways that once powered Florida’s growth — ensuring healthy ecosystems, and recreational opportunities for generations to come.
