Ground water in the Hallandale area, Florida

The water problems confronting Hallandale are similar to those of othercoastal cities of southeastern Florida which are undergoing rapid growthwith tremendous increase in water demand. The highly permeable Biscayneaquifer underlying the Hallandale area is an excellent source ofwater; however, the permeable nature of the Biscayne aquifer would permitthe intrusion of sea water, if fresh water levels were lowered excessively,as well as the infiltration of urban or industrial contaminants, fromland surfaces and surface water bodies.This study is to provide the hydrologic data necessary for proper waterresource development and planning in the Hallandale area.(40 page document)
