| Abstract: | PURPOSE: Restore historical vegetation and habitat along a portion of the southeastern Lake Okeechobee shoreline which has been degraded due to the USACE Herbert Hoover Dike project. NEED: Deep lake levels, wind, and wave activity in Lake Okeechobee near the Pahokee shoreline maintains turbid water conditions and inhibits the ability of emergent vegetation to root and establish a littoral and buffer zone. Storm events exacerbate already poor conditions. |
