Surveying in Citrus County

Citrus County is known as the "Manatee Capital of the World" due to the Crystal River and Kings Bay manatee population. Development along these spring-fed waterways triggers extensive environmental surveys and setback requirements to protect manatee habitat.

The Tsala Apopka chain of lakes in the county's interior creates complex waterfront boundary situations where fluctuating water levels can shift the ordinary high water line significantly between wet and dry seasons.

Citrus County's karst terrain features prominent sinkholes, caverns, and spring-fed rivers. The Cross Florida Barge Canal (now Marjorie Harris Carr Cross Florida Greenway) cuts through the county and has created unique property boundary situations along its right-of-way.
