Time is running short to influence the CORPS regarding operational change for the greater Lake Okeechobee System. And right now it doesn’t look good for the future. Early reports show more of the same with discharges possibly getting worse, not better, once the C-44 reservoir is completed. It’s time to be heard. Demand Zero Discharges to the St. Lucie estuary by sending more water from the Lake into the state owned, and paid for, Storm Treatment Areas, STAs.
