🌟 Congratulations to the South Florida Water Management District’s September 2026 Team of the Month! 🌟

🎉 The Big Cypress Basin Structure Maintenance and Heavy Equipment Team enhanced recreational opportunities on District lands.

🥾 This hard-working team completed a parking lot at the Picayune Strand Restoration Project and created a hiking trail in the Green Heart of the Everglades. They are also in the process of expanding the existing parking lot at Bird Rookery Swamp in the Big Cypress Basin area. These facilities provide additional access for the public to explore and enjoy the outdoors.

👏 Thank you to all of the team members for their dedication to these projects!

🚜 We’re rockin’ and rollin’ with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

✒️ The Corps approved the package to build the EAA Reservoir’s Seepage Management Pump Station under the new first-of-a-kind agreement to expedite Everglades restoration in South Florida.

🗓️ By the end of the year, we will be building this new pump station for the EAA Reservoir.

💧 The EAA Reservoir is the “crown jewel” of Everglades restoration and is designed to send more clean water south, restore ecosystems, and significantly reduce harmful discharges to the Caloosahatchee and St. Lucie estuaries.

👍 Another massive win for Everglades restoration and water quality.

🎣💧 The St. Lucie Estuary is a vital resource for Floridians who live, work and fish in the area, and the new C-23 Canal Estuary Discharge Diversion Project is already improving water quality all along the Indian River Lagoon.

✨ The South Florida Water Management District remains laser focused on finding solutions to problems and delivering results for Floridians.

💦 Transforming water quality in the St. Lucie Estuary and Indian River Lagoon!

✂️ Today, Governor Ron DeSantis, Florida Department of Environmental Protection Secretary Alexis Lambert, South Florida Water Management District Executive Director Drew Bartlett and Governing Board Members Chauncey Goss, “Alligator Ron” Bergeron, Ben Butler, Thomas Hurley, and Charlette Roman celebrated the completion of an important water quality project in Martin County, FL. This important project reduces harmful discharges to the St. Lucie Estuary by routing excess water from the C-23 Canal to the C-44 Reservoir & STA.

👏 Since 2019, we have celebrated over 90 project launches, completions and major milestones under the leadership of Governor Ron DeSantis-the most in state history.

🌱 Thank you to the Florida Legislature, partner agencies, stakeholders and our dedicated staff who worked so hard to bring this project to life.
