Myakka State Forest Water Quality and Bank Stabilization in Sarasota County

Installation of a low water crossing on a trail road to protect and preserve an existing natural wetland, and approximately 650 linear feet of stream restoration, including exotic vegetation removal, to prevent sedimentation into Newgate and Lafitte Waterways, which flows into Oyster Creek and to Lemon Bay. The project is expected to result in an environmental net benefit, and will focus on recovering the functions of water storage and conveyance in an impacted stream and drainage swale, and recapturing the benefits of water quality and wildlife habitat formerly provided by the impacted system in its undisturbed state. The property is currently managed as a recreational facility by the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Division of Forestry
