Closure Notification
Posted May 1, 2025: The Central Everglades Planning Project North L-5 Remnant Canal Improvements project has started. The entire L-5 remnant canal will be closed due to construction including the staging areas shown on the map here, which are adjacent to Stormwater Treatment Area 3/4 Harold A. Campbell. Public access to Stormwater Treatment Area ¾ Harold A. Campbell and along the L-5 North Levee will be maintained throughout the project.
Stormwater Treatment Area 3/4 East (STA-3/4) in rural Palm Beach County is one of the largest constructed wetlands in the world. The accompanying public use area gives visitors access to vast wetland habitat where bicyclists and hikers can see a variety of native wildlife. STA-3/4 features a covered information kiosk, paved parking area, sidewalk path and a composting toilet. This site is also a waterfowl and alligator hunting area.
The Harold A. Campbell Public Small Game Hunting Area is located just west of STA-3/4. This area features covered information kiosks, paved parking areas, concrete sidewalks and a composting toilet. The area also offers a public dual-lane boat ramp that serves as a gateway to 23 miles of perimeter canals.
Trails are open Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays sunrise to sunset.
Hunting is managed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Visit myfwc.com for hunting dates, regulations and detailed license information.
