Description: This dataset is composed of point features of eagle nests documented by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and the EagleWatch Program. Accuracy of the nest locations varies based on documentation method but is generally estimated to be within 0.1 miles of the true location. For nests monitored by EagleWatch, the nest data provided is current through the end of the 2023-2024 nesting season. Bald Eagles and Bald Eagle nests are protected by state (68A-16.002, F.A.C.) and federal laws (Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act). Nests may not be removed without a federal permit. Additional guidelines and permitting requirements exist for work planned near an active Bald Eagle nest during the breeding season (generally October to May in Florida). For permitting guidance, please visit the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Technical Assistance Web Page. Not all Bald Eagle nests in Florida have been documented. Non-documented nests receive the same level of protections as documented nests.

Description: This dataset features point geometry that contains spatial and descriptive information on hard plumbed automatic flushers within Hillsborough County.
Description: This dataset is composed of point features that represent aquifer recharge wells used to replenish groundwater supplies in Hillsborough County.
Description: This point-geometry dataset represents small water systems that operate independently or semi-independently from Hillsborough County water systems.
Description: This dataset is a digital soil survey and generally is the most detailed level of soil geographic data developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey. The information was prepared by digitizing maps, by compiling information onto a planimetric correct base and digitizing, or by revising digitized maps using remotely sensed and other information. This dataset consists of georeferenced digital map data and computerized attribute data. The map data are in a state-wide extent format and include a detailed, field verified inventory of soils and miscellaneous areas that normally occur in a repeatable pattern on the landscape and that can be cartographically shown at the scale mapped. The soil map units are linked to attributes in the National Soil Information System relational database, which gives the proportionate extent of the component soils and their properties. This data set replaces the SSOILS data in previous versions of FGDL.This layer is the parent for NRCS Hydric Soils (Summary) - Subset of NRCS Specific Soils Data, which uses the following selection: NRCS_SOILS.HYDRICRATI = 'YES'. This layer is the parent for NRCS Prime Farm Land - Subset of NRCS Specific Soils Data, which uses the following selection: NRCS_SOILS.PRIMEFARM='Y'. This layer is the parent for NRCS Hydric Soils (List) - Subset of NRCS Specific Soils Data, which uses the following selection: NRCS_SOILS.HYDRICRATI = 'YES'. This layer is the parent for Prime Farmland Soil, which uses the following selection: NRCS_SOILS.PRIMEFARM = 'Y'.

Description: This dataset is composed of polygon features representing brownfields. The primary goals of Florida's Brownfields Redevelopment Act (Ch. 97-277, Laws of Florida, codified at ss. 376.77-.85, F.S.) are to reduce health and environmental hazards on existing commercial and industrial sites that are abandoned or underused due to these hazards and create financial and regulatory incentives to encourage voluntary cleanup and redevelopment of sites. After a local municipality in Florida designates an area as a brownfield to encourage redevelopment and focus upon revitalization, a resolution is passed and property owners within that designated area optionally may remediate or redevelop their property. Executed Brownfield Site Rehabilitation Agreements (BSRAs) are voluntary cleanup agreements between a responsible party and FDEP or a delegated local pollution control program. This agreement provides the FDEP and the public assurance that site rehabilitation will be conducted in accordance with the statute and the Brownfields Cleanup Criteria rule (Ch. 62-785), and provides liability protection for the responsible person. The agreement contains various commitments by the responsible person, including milestones for completion of site rehabilitation tasks and submittal of technical reports and plans as agreed to by the responsible person and the DEP. It also contains a commitment by the FDEP to review technical reports according to an agreed upon schedule. This layer provides a polygon representation of the boundaries of sites within a designated Brownfield Area within Florida where BSRAs have been executed between FDEP and a responsible party.

Description: This dataset is composed of polygon features representing the spatial buffer for eagle nests documented by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and the EagleWatch Program. Not all Bald Eagle nests in Florida have been documented. Non-documented nests receive the same level of protections as documented nests.

Description: This polygon dataset represents the spatial extent and characteristics of a tetrachloroethylene (PCE) contamination plume identified in Hillsborough County.
Description: This polygon dataset represents areas which potentially support the presence of Significant Wildlife Habitat as defined by the land development code. Field verification of designated areas would be required to substantiate the presence of Significant Wildlife Habitat. It was adopted by Hillsborough County's Board Of County Commissioners (BOCC) on December 13, 2007.
Description: This feature class contains polygons of properties that have been acquired through Environmental Lands Acquisition and Protection Program (ELAPP). This dataset provides the approximate locations of properties that have been identified as acquired and is intended for general reference. This data was created by combining and tracing polygons from the parcels as described in acquired documents or legal descriptions for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and mapping purposes. Data is updated by applying new acquired documents or legal descriptions that change the ELAPP boundaries. ELAPP is voluntary, not a regulatory program established for the purpose of providing the process and funding or identifying, acquiring, preserving and protecting endangered, environmentally- sensitive and significant lands in Hillsborough County. It is a citizen- based program with volunteer committees involved in every key aspect of the program. The program has allowed Hillsborough County to preserve more than 61,000 acres of environmentally sensitive wildlife habitat and corridors since 1987. Approximately one third of the lands have been acquired in partnership with other local, state and federal agencies including the Cities of Tampa, Temple Terrace and Plant City; The Department of Environmental Protection/Florida Communities Trust Program: and the Southwest Florida Water Management District. This feature class is stored in NAD 1983 State Plane Florida West coordinates (FIPS Zone 902) with ground coordinates expressed as US Survey feet.
Description: This dataset consists of polygon features representing the Adopt-A-Pond program locations. Program helps citizens learn to maintain their neighborhood ponds by providing them with the resources and expertise they need to successfully do so. The county must own the pond or it must be privately owned with one or more drainage easements dedicated to Hillsborough County. No wetland or protected conservation areas are allowed in the program. Pond groups cannot use Adopt-A-Pond to satisfy permit conditions for the Southwest Florida Water Management District or any other agency.
