Where We Drill: the Four-County Bay

Tampa–St. Petersburg–Clearwater, FL HDD service area — 4 component counties, principal and satellite cities — The Tampa Bay service area — U.S. Census Bureau county boundaries; cities marked are where crews most often mobilize.

The service area is the OMB-defined Tampa–St. Petersburg–Clearwater metro — Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, and Hernando counties, the full sweep of the bay and the Suncoast arc. County pages below carry the local picture: the corridors, the ground, and the authorities whose permits govern crossings.

Hillsborough County

The engine: Tampa's core, the port, and the I-75 growth spine.

Pinellas County

The peninsula: America's densest county, built out and rebuilding underground.

Pasco County

The growth arc: Wesley Chapel to the coast, where the clay starts thinning.

Hernando County

The Suncoast end: Spring Hill's grid and the heart of sinkhole country.

All component counties: Hillsborough · Pinellas · Pasco · Hernando.
