IRL South Feasibility Study

Feasibility Study:
Indian River Lagoon - South

The Indian River Lagoon (IRL) - South Feasibility Study investigated the options to alter the detrimental affects of the flow of surface waters through the existing Central and Southern Florida (C&SF) canal system to the St. Lucie Riverand Estuary and the Indian River Lagoon. The C&SF project features in this study area are C-25 (Belcher Canal), C-24 (Diversion Canal), C-23, and C-44 (St. Lucie Canal). This study focused on making improvements, which will restore the environmental health of the receiving water bodies as well as their watershed.

The results of this study produced a final Project Implementation Report (PIR), dated March 2004.
