... or speculated beyond reason.

With respect to water:

Golf Course Irrigation:

North of CR 466, golf courses are irrigated with a combination of reclaimed wastewater, storm water runoff that is collected in water retention areas, and groundwater (some upper Floridan and some Lower Floridan, depending on the specific course).
South of CR 466 all golf courses are irrigated with a combination of reclaimed wastewater and lower Floridan groundwater.

(Village Community Development Districts.)

If they can't get rid of the reclaimed wastewater by watering the golf courses, what are they going to do with it?
