A special master hearing is scheduled for June 5, 2026, regarding the Lecanto Sand Mine CPA/AA/PUD-2025-00010 in Citrus County. The mine operator is required to submit a site plan showing all drinking water sources, including private wells, within 1000 feet of the mine's property line. The project must meet groundwater quality and quantity standards set by the FDEP and SWFWMD. This review stage means that planning and design work is underway. The project will involve site assessment, groundwater monitoring, and potentially the development of new well protection measures. Contractors specializing in environmental services, site planning, and potentially well drilling or repair could find opportunities as this project moves forward. Engaging early could provide an advantage before final plans and permits are established.
