The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers met Monday with about 150 online viewers.
Discussions focused mostly on hydrological modeling that considered more than 100,000 water management scenarios or iterations for the lake. Iteration 1 is done, said Col. Andrew Kelly, head of the Army Corps Jacksonville office. Holy smokes. It’s been a long time coming and lots of great work by everyone to get us to this point, and the reality is we are here now where we’ve got a plethora of data that we’ve gotten through Iteration 1. Now it’s about applying that information and coming up with a finalized plan in July.

Average flows to the Caloosahatchee were 2,000 cubic feet per second, but the Army Corps lowered that to 1,200 cubic feet per second, and levels in St. Lucie were dropped to 300 cubic feet per second, according to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers records. It s a good number, said Barry Rosen, a professor with Florida Gulf Coast University s Water School, talking about the flow to the Caloosahatchee system. Twelve hundred (cubic feet per second) is not going to harm oysters, and it s not going to hurt the freshwater tape grasses.
