The Senate Resolution, introduced by Senator Bradley, designates April 2025 as Springs Protection Awareness Month in Florida. This resolution highlights the significance of Florida's springs, which are crucial for the state's environment, economy, and the well-being of its residents and visitors. With over 1,000 natural springs and 33 first-magnitude springs, Florida boasts one of the highest concentrations of springs globally, and approximately 90 percent of its residents depend on groundwater for drinking water.

The resolution emphasizes the ecological importance of these springs, which serve as habitats for wildlife and reflect the health of groundwater conditions. Additionally, Florida's springs are a source of recreational enjoyment and attract tourists, contributing to the state's economy. By recognizing April 2025 as Springs Protection Awareness Month, the resolution aims to promote awareness and commitment to the sustainable protection of Florida's vital water resources.
