Statewide Interest: |
This improvement will provide sediment control prior to discharge into the Indian River Lagoon, which is an estuary of national significance and is part of the EPA's National Estuary Program. The diversion of excess surface water drainage from both urban and agricultural lands to the lagoon and associated declines in water and sediment quality are primary threats to the lagoon. The loss of shoreline habitat is also identified under both plans as a major contributing factor to the degradation of the water body. Mangrove wetlands and seagrass beds are critical components of the lagoon and play important roles in biological productivity and species diversity. |
