Description: This proposal will eliminate nearly all of C-111 and its levees from S-18C south, and will create a large, continuous marsh, about 4 miles wide, extending from a point 2 miles north of S-18C to northeast Florida Bay. Overland sheet flow in this marsh will be dependent on local rainfall plus supplemental water pumped into the north end of the area from C-111.
