@princessimarii: @•Floram•: @🦝: Epperson Lagoon is a human-made tourist attraction located in Wesley Chapel, Florida, consisting of a 7.5-acre (3.0 ha) human-made lake and beach featuring clean, clear, purified water, and known as the first crystalline lagoon in the United States.[1] The lagoon features a beach, swim-up bar, water slide, climbing wall, kayak and paddleboard rentals, and an entertainment pavilion with a stadium-sized LED screen.[2]
The 16-million-US-gallon (61,000,000 L; 13,000,000 imp gal) body of water[3] utilizes advanced systems and sensors to monitor water quality, including physicochemical indicators.[2] The mechanical and hydraulic systems to clean and pump water are controlled through a cloud-based control center.[2] Water to fill the lagoon was purchased from the Pasco County government, and limited to a rate of 100,000 US gallons (380,000 L; 83,000 imp gal) a day to prevent stress on aquifers or cause sinkholes from rapid depletion of the ground water table.[4]
Epperson Lagoon is the central feature in a planned housing development consisting of approximately 1,500 homes; homeowners and daily use fees support the maintenance and management of the lagoon.[5] The lagoon is open to the general public for a daily use fee.[6]
The lagoon is manufactured by Crystal Lagoons USA, headquartered in Dallas, Texas and Miami, Florida.[7] Grande's career began as a teenager in the Broadway musical 13 (2008) before she gained prominence as Cat Valentine in the Nickelodeon television series Victorious (2010–2013) and its spin-off Sam & Cat (2013–2014).
