GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE DISCUSSED: 

The South Florida Water Management District will celebrate the completion of the Scott Water Farm event with a ribbon cutting event. 

The Scott Water Farm project will retain onsite rainfall and pump water from the C-25 Canal and store it on approximately 7,500 acres of privately-owned land. The project was designed to reduce harmful estuary discharges and can store more than 29,000 acre-feet of water per year. Governor Ron DeSantis prioritized public-private partnerships like this one as part of his effort to do more for Florida’s environment and improve water quality around the state. This project is generously funded by the Florida Legislature.

The event will be recorded and available for viewing at  YouTube.com/SFWMDTV after the event concludes.
