Bobkorn finding a map online of well locations is hard now,the Hudson wellfield has 13 wells, 11 of these wells are in Flagler County, they start 1 mile in from the county line and are spaced about 1000 feet apart, they in the south east corner west of Rt1 pass the railroad tracks, their is a service road back there. They have a permit to take 2 million gallons of water a day from those wells. Below is a link . I will see if I can find at map at the Flagler Health Dept for you.

The Wellfield starts 1 mile in, from the Volusia/Flagler Line
There are adequate supplies of water available for existing legal uses and reasonably anticipated
future needs of Flagler County in the immediate vicinity of the Ormond Beach wellfields,
including the Hudson wellfield which lies within Flagler and Volusia counties, based upon
supporting modeling efforts and ongoing water quality monitoring. As noted in sections
addressing ground water, surface water, wetland, and existing user impacts, the potential for harm
to the environment and existing users from this withdrawal is negligible in Volusia and Flagler
counties.

Flagler County has been identified as a priority water resource caution area in the draft 2003
Water Supply Assessment, due to concerns over projected impacts to established minimum flows
and levels, wetlands, and lakes from increased withdrawals in the northeast and east central
portions ofthe County. It should be noted that the Hudson wellfield is located in the southeast
comer of Flagler County, a portion of the county where ground water withdrawals are minimal
and adverse impacts are not anticipated. The eleven Hudson wells within Flagler County are one mile of the Volusia/Flagler county line. Ormond Beach's contribution to the
cumulative increased ground water use over the proposed permit duration of20-years has been
evaluated and is not anticipated to cause adverse impacts in this area of Flagler County at this
time. However, this evaluation will recur on 5-year intervals to ensure that impacts will not occur
as recorrimendedin Other Condition 28. In the event that unacceptable impacts are anticipated at
one of these future evaluations, then appropriate avoidance measures must be put in place or the
allocation(s) must be reduced accordingly to avoid the impacts.
(f) Consultations with local governments affected by the proposed transport and use.
Ormond Beach has been operating under the Hunter's Ridge DRI development order that
provides for deeded easements for production wells in exchange for public water service to
Hunter's Ridge by Ormond Beach, Flagler County is interested in providing water service to
residents within Flagler County. Ormond Beach and Flagler County are currently negotiating an
inter-local agreement to address water use in Hunter's Ridge. Although no consensus has yet been
reached between the parties, negotiations are ongoing. Flagler County has requested in writing
that this application for water use not be issued until an inter-local agreement addressing potable
water service in Flagler County is signed between Flagler County and Ormond Beach. Flagler
County has recently indicated that absent an interlocal agreement, Flagler County, through the
developer ofthe Hunter's Ridge DRI, will construct onsite facilities to provide potable water
service, per the Development Order for the DRI. In response to this information, District staff
recommends that the permit be conditioned so that in the event that the water plant is constructed
and a consumptive use permit is obtained, then the Ormond Beach allocation for the Flagler
County portion of Hunter's Ridge will be removed.

The thirteen wells within the Hudson wellfield were installed in 1987 and have been supplying
water since the late 1980's. As noted above, the eleven Hudson wells located within Flagler
