The South Florida Water Management District accounted for the largest amount of water withdrawn for public supply (1,118 Mgal/d), agricultural irrigation (1,380 Mgal/d), and recreation-landscape irrigation (263 Mgal/d), while the St Johns River Water Management District accounted for the largest amount of water for commercial-industrial-mining self-supplied (112 Mgal/d) and domestic self-supplied (65 Mgal/d).
