SWFWMD - Cypress Creek Wellfields
Public
SWFWMD lands that provide water to the Tampa Bay communities. This is a beautiful piece of 7, 400 acres land, located in Central Pasco County, east of Land O’ Lakes, that has been preserved and is open to hikers, bikers and geocachers (Thank you SWFWMD!). Nice trails and great scenery to enjoy while caching. Purchased to provide flood protection and serve as a public water supply, Cypress Creek’s floodplain helps filter nutrients in runoff waters. Cypress Creek Well Field serves as an important source of water for the surrounding region and is owned and operated by Tampa Bay Water (TBW). Cypress Creek is a tributary of the Hillsborough River. Within the property, the creek threads its way through an expanse of cypress and hardwood forests. Slash pine, longleaf pine and palmetto grow on the higher “ridges,” which are collectively known as Florida flatwoods.
