Description: This dataset contains the State of Florida subset of the 2025 National Inventory of Dams (NID). The NID is a congressionally authorized database, which documents dams in the U.S. and its territories. The NID is maintained and published by USACE, in cooperation with the Association of State Dam Safety Officials (ASDSO), the states and territories, and federal dam-regulating agencies. The database contains information about the dam’s location, size, purpose, type, last inspection, regulatory facts, and other technical data. Prior to 2021, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) updated the NID, annually, with information provided by states and federal dam regulating agencies across the nation. Starting in November 2021, state and federal dam safety regulatory entities can enter data directly and as often as they like or provide bulk data updates directly to USACE. This change provides flexibility and supports access to real-time, up-to-date information for the more than 91,000 dams in the NID. The dams in the NID are owned, operated, or regulated by a variety of entities. About 75 percent of the dams in the NID are regulated by the state dam safety offices, and almost 70 percent of the entire inventory is privately-owned dams. The federal government owns or regulates five percent of dams in the NID, which includes approximately 55 percent of the tallest dams. Dams located in Florida that are listed in the NID meet at least one of the following four criteria: 1) High Hazard Potential dams - Loss of human life is likely if the dam fails. 2) Significant Hazard Potential dams - No probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environmental damage, disruption of lifeline facilities or other impacts. 3) The dam is equal to or exceeds 25 feet in height and exceeds 15 acre-feet in storage. 4) The dam exceeds six feet in height and is equal to or exceeds 50 acre-feet in storage. USACE manages the NID but does not own most of the dams in the NID. Operation, maintenance, and repair of these dams is the responsibility of each dam owner. Please contact the respective state or federal regulatory authority for the most up-to-date information. This layer is an update to the FGDL layer USACE_DAMS_2019.

Description: This dataset contains Principal Ports located in the state of Florida. The Principal Ports dataset is periodically updated by the United States Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). The ports are defined by port limits or Corps projects. The determination for the published Principal Ports is based upon the total tonnage for the port for the particular year, therefore the top 150 list can vary from year to year. The Principal Port file contains USACE port codes, geographic locations, names, and commodity tonnage summaries (total tons, domestic, foreign, imports and exports) for Principal USACE Ports. Data as of CY 2022.

Description: This dataset contains the US Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) port locations within the state of Florida. The data consists of location description, street address, city, county name, congressional district FIPS code, type of construction, cargo-handling equipment, water depth alongside the facility, facility type ( dock, fleeting area, lock and/or dam) berthing space, latitude, longitude, current operators and owner's information, list of commodities handled at facility, road/railway connections, equipment available at facility, storage facilities, cranes, transit sheds, grain elevators, marine repair plants, fleeting areas, and docking, and facility start/stop date. Collection of data is performed on a rotational basis to ensure on-site accuracy at each facility. This dataset is an update to the acport_2019 layer.

Description: This dataset contains mitigation bank and in-lieu fee program sites in Florida from the US Army Corps of Engineers Regulatory In-lieu Fee and Bank Information Tracking System (RIBITS). A mitigation bank is a site where resources (e.g., wetlands, streams, riparian areas) are restored, established, enhanced, and/or preserved for the purpose of providing compensatory mitigation for impacts authorized by Department of the Army permits. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regulates resources like wetlands and streams under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and in some cases Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act. The measure of aquatic functions is based on the resources restored, established, enhanced, or preserved. An In-lieu fee program involves the restoration, establishment, enhancement, and/or preservation through funds paid to a governmental or non-profit natural resources management program sponsor to satisfy compensatory mitigation requirements under Department of the Army permits. Funds are often received by the in-lieu fee program sponsor prior to undertaking compensatory mitigation projects. In lieu fee programs can involve multiple mitigation project sites.
