The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Jacksonville District, in its partnership with the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), awarded three contracts to increase the momentum towards restoring, preserving and protecting America’s iconic Everglades.
The goal of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP) is to improve the health of 2.4 million acres of the south Florida ecosystem.
These essential CERP projects are a huge investment and will add resilience and storage to the Central Everglades and the Indian River Lagoon.
The bipartisan Infrastructure Law has invested a critical $1.1 billion in the South Florida Ecosystem Restoration (SFER) program.
