Farmers and ranchers in Northwest Florida are invited to attend a workshop to discuss proposed changes to permitting rules on irrigation wells.

Staff from the Northwest Florida Water Management District and Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) will provide information on statewide consumptive use permitting consistency (CUPcon) efforts and what the proposed changes will mean for the agricultural community.

The workshop will be held Tuesday, December 11 at 2 p.m. at the Walnut Hill Community Center. This workshop is an opportunity for Northwest Florida’s agricultural community to provide input as rule changes are being considered.
