  • Long-Range Interpretive Plan, Dry Tortugas National Park
    LONG-RANGE INTERPRETIVE PLAN Dry Tortugas National Park 2003 Cover Photograph: Aerial view of Fort Jefferson on Garden Key (fore- ground) and Bush Key (background). COMPREHENSIVE INTERPRETIVE PLAN Dry Tortugas National Park 2003 LONG-RANGE INTERPRETIVE PLAN Dry Tortugas National Park 2003 Prepared by: Department of Interpretive Planning Harpers Ferry Design Center and the Interpretive Staff of Dry Tortugas National Park and Everglades National Park INTRODUCTION About 70 miles west of Key West, Florida, lies a string of seven islands called the Dry Tortugas. These sand and coral reef islands, or keys, along with 100 square miles of shallow waters and shoals that surround them, make up Dry Tortugas National Park. Here, clear views of water and sky extend to the horizon, broken only by an occasional island. Below and above the horizon line are natural and historical treasures that continue to beckon and amaze those visitors who venture here. Warm, clear, shallow, and well-lit waters around these tropical islands provide ideal conditions for coral reefs. Tiny, primitive animals called polyps live in colonies under these waters and form skeletons from cal- cium carbonate which, over centuries, create coral reefs. These reef ecosystems support a wealth of marine life such as sea anemones, sea fans, lobsters, and many other animal and plant species. Throughout these fragile habitats, colorful fishes swim, feed, court, and thrive. Sea turtles−−once so numerous they inspired Spanish explorer Ponce de León to name these islands “Las Tortugas” in 1513−−still live in these waters. Loggerhead and Green sea turtles crawl onto sand beaches here to lay hundreds of eggs.

  • Sample Itinerary: Dry Tortugas – One Week*
    Sample Itinerary: Dry Tortugas – One Week* Day 1 – Depart out of Marathon in the evening and sail to the Dry Tortugas. (107 NM) It will take anywhere from 12 to 16 hours to make this passage. You should try to arrive in day light hours so that your approach is easier. Day 2 – Arrive at the island group known as the Dry Tortugas. This is the most isolated and least visited national park in the United States. You should plan to spend two nights here but if the weather deteriorates be flexible enough to cut it short and head back to Key West. There are no services out on these islands so you should plan to be self sufficient while in this remote area. Day 3 – Go ashore on Garden Key and tour Fort Jefferson National Monument. This was originally built in the mid 1800’s as a military fort to be used by Union forces during the Civil War. The fort was converted to a prison whose most famous inmate was Dr. Mudd of Lincoln’s time. Day 4 – Snorkel the reefs surrounding the islands. Go ashore on Loggerhead Key and/or Hospital Key for a cookout, just be sure to clean up well and leave as little of a footprint as possible. Bush Key offers great bird watching from your yacht. Bush Key is a bird sanctuary and landing is prohibited. Day 5 – Depart the Dry Tortugas early in the morning and sail to the uninhabited island group of the Marquesas. (44 NM) Be careful of Rebecca Shoal on the way and arrive before dark.

  • Big Coppitt Johnsonville Subdivision Road Mitigation Project
    Monroe County Big Coppitt Key Johnsonville Subdivision Road Mitigation Project GIP Project Description Page 1 of 7 Monroe County Big Coppitt Key Johnsonville Subdivision Road Mitigation Project Community Development Block Grant – Mitigation Program General Infrastructure Program Big Coppitt Key - Johnsonville Subdivision Road Mitigation Project PROJECT DESCRIPTION Purpose and Description: Monroe County is the Southernmost County in the Continental United States. It is comprised of the Florida Keys, which are a string of over 800 low-lying islands stretching 130 miles in length and connected by only one road in and out, the Overseas Highway (US1). This grant application requests $8,514,819 in Community Development Block Grant- Mitigation (CDBG-MIT) grant funding to improve roadways in the Johnsonville subdivision located on Big Coppitt Key by designing and constructing an engineered storm water collection, treatment and disposal system. Figure 1 details the location of the project. This project will protect access to 86 residential homes that are subject to frequent and persistent flooding due to storms, tides, and that are at risk for future sea level rise impacts. The Big Coppitt Johnsonville subdivision drainage improvement project site is an approximately 18-acre area in a residential neighborhood that is located on the north side of Big Coppitt Key at mile marker 10 in the lower keys. The roads on the western side of the subdivision are at low elevation and frequently flood during rain events. The tidally influenced groundwater is high and the area does not drain naturally. Public Works crews are frequently dispatched to the area to pump storm water out of this low area to prevent water from flooding on adjacent properties.

  • Florida Keys Vacation Rental Issues Investigative Report Illegal Vacation Rentals And
    Florida Keys Vacation Rental Issues Investigative Report Illegal Vacation Rentals and Prepared for the: Scams Monroe County Tourist Development Council April, 2015 Background The purpose of the report is to examine the occurrence of illegal or non-compliant vacation rentals and vacation rental scams throughout the Florida Keys; providing recommendations for how such practices may be mitigated. Illegal vacation rentals and vacation rental scams are important issues to the Monroe County Tourist Development Council (TDC) for many reasons, including chiefly our concern of their potential negative impacts to our tourism industry, visitors and our community. Illegal or non-compliant units may evade tourist development taxes and sales taxes. It is estimated that tourism is responsible for 60% of sales tax revenue in our community. Sales tax benefits our Keys area schools and infrastructure through our county’s local option discretionary sales surtaxes. Sales tax also benefits our Keys municipalities through the State’s half-cent give- back. This funds critical area services. Sales tax also funds the State and the services it provides to the Keys. In our area, one-cent of tourist development taxes collected on transient accommodations is a tourist impact tax. This tax funds environmentally sensitive land acquisition and affordable housing initiatives, and the County’s general fund to offset the impacts of tourism. Almost 100% of this tax is paid by tourists. The remaining tourist development taxes leveed fund the TDC and its efforts to market the Florida Keys as a tourism destination and maintain its tourism product. This includes beach re-nourishment, support of local culture and the arts, event funding, and capital improvements to government owned and not-for-profit recreational offerings.
