 The St. Johns River Water Management District has worked with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, the Florida Department of Transportation, the city of Altamonte Springs, Seminole and Orange counties, environmental interest groups and basin residents to find solutions in rehabilitating and protecting the Little Wekiva to minimize its negative impact in the water quality of the Wekiva River.In Longwood before the Little Wekiva enters the Wekiva River Buffer Conservation Area, several second- and third-magnitude]] springs, including the Sanlando Springs, replenish the Little Wekiva with fresh underground water.The State Road 46 is the only active road that spans the river with the bridge about from the Wekiwa Springs State Park.
