There is currently limited access to the park via land. Access to the park is primarily from water. Waccasassa Bay Preserve State Park was initially acquired on December 10, 1971 with funds from the Land Acquisition Trust Fund (LATF) and the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF). Currently, the park comprises 34,397.02 acres. The Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund (Trustees) hold fee simple title to the park and on April 6, 1972, the Trustees leased (Lease Number 2599) the property to DRP under a ninety-nine year lease.

  • Your Guide to Eating Fish Caught in Florida
    Fish Consumption Advisories are published periodically by the Your Guide State of Florida to alert consumers about the possibility of chemically contaminated fish in Florida waters. To Eating The advisories are meant to inform the public of potential health risks of specific fish species from specific Fish Caught water bodies. In Florida Florida Department of Health Prepared in cooperation with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and Agriculture and Consumer Services, and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission 2012 Florida Fish Advisories • Table 1: Eating Guidelines for Fresh Water Fish from Florida Waters page 1-29 • Table 2: Eating Guidelines for Marine and Estuarine Fish from Florida Waters page 30-31 • Table 3: Eating Fish from Florida Waters with Dioxin, Pesticide, or Saxitoxin Contamination page 32 Eating Fish is an important part of a healthy diet. Rich in vitamins and low in fat, fish contains protein we need for strong bodies. It is also an excellent source of nutrition for proper growth and development. In fact, the American Heart Association recommends that you eat two meals of fish or seafood every week. At the same time, most Florida seafood has low to medium levels of mercury. Depending on the age of the fish, the type of fish, and the condition of the water the fish lives in, the levels of mercury found in fish are different. While mercury in rivers, creeks, ponds, and lakes can build up in some fish to levels that can be harmful, most fish caught in Florida can be eaten without harm. Florida specific guidelines make eating choices easier.

Rathbun U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Sirenia Project 412 N.E. 16th Ave., Rm. 250 Gainesville, FL 32601 Abstract: A review of historical and recent records of manatee (Trichechus manatus) sightings along the coast of the northern Gulf of Mexico indicates that their numbers have declined in Texas, but increased in Louisiana and Mississippi. This is due to their extirpation in Mexico and dramatic increase along the southern Big Bend coast of northwestern peninsular Florida.

  • Comments Regarding FDOT Tampa Bay to Northeast Florida Study Area Concept Report May 28, 2013
    Comments Regarding FDOT Tampa Bay to Northeast Florida Study Area Concept Report May 28, 2013 These comments were submitted to FDOT on behalf of 1000 Friends of Florida, Audubon Florida, St. Johns Riverkeeper, Defenders of Wildlife and Conservancy of Southwest Florida 1. General process questions that require greater attention a) The 50 year planning horizon suggests that something other than traditional road building needs to be strongly evaluated. The basic fact in this corridor is that at this moment in time, roads have been the only alternative developed. Fifty years out this will still be the case unless other alternatives are planned and tried. b) Explanations are needed regarding the “planning and screening” process. c) It is very important to provide an inventory of approved but un-built developments in the region of this corridor study area. d) Each potential strategy should be assigned some weighting factor so people can understand how much of the problem each strategy resolves. In other words, how does one assess the relative importance/value of the “interstate 75 relievers” strategy against the “I-75 transportation needs” strategy? 2. Roadway development and environmental and growth management considerations a) Potential Connections to I-10 and the more coastal Tampa to Northwest Florida Connection - No mention is made of evaluating and/or prioritizing EXISTING rights-of- way when looking at expanded capacity such as US 301, US 19, US 27, SR 26, SR 41 and SR 99. For example, Highways 19, 27A, 98 is a major divided highway from about the Ingles/Yankeetown area to Perry/I-10 toward N.E.

  • 186 BULLETIN FLORIDA STATE MUSEUM Vol. XVI No. 4 Peninsula Was Narrower and Shorter, Terminating Near Lake Okeechobee
    186 BULLETIN FLORIDA STATE MUSEUM Vol. XVI No. 4 peninsula was narrower and shorter, terminating near Lake Okeechobee. Off the southwestern end of the peninsula was a large oval island. A long, wide lagoon, including the present St. Johns River, extended southward from Orange Bluff on St. Marys River to Sanford, and was separated from the open ocean by a chain of large islands. The shore extended much farther out on the continental shelf as little as 11,000 years ago (Emery, 1967, fig. 9). At that time it may have been easier for Unionidae to disperse along a largely baseleveled coast, which might explain the presence of one unionid, Elliptio dariensis (Lea), found only in the Altamaha and St. Johns river systems. The distribution of some species of Hydrobiidae (Thompson, 1968), presently restricted to the ocean side of the Pamlico shore, offers striking evidence of repopulation and rapid speciation in this area. DRAINAGE SYSTEMS Peninsular Florida (Figure 1) averages over 50 inches of rain a year. Much of this sinks into the ground, as the soil is loose and sandy, and is stored up as a great reservoir of ground water, some of which seeps to the surface in artesian springs. These springs usually rise through deep vertical holes in the underlying limestone and result from rain that fell on a higher level. Most of the isolated springs have no Unionidae in them, but those that form the sources of rivers often have at least Elliptio icterina (Conrad) or E. buckleyi (Lea). Many of the springs contain endemic species of Hy- drobiidae (Thompson, 1968).
