Number of pages in text: 41 The natural environment of South Florida has been affected by many anthropogenic disturbances, such as nutrient enrichment, soil erosion, pesticide contamination, and algal blooms. Efforts to divert freshwater resources to sustain the more populated areas have had devastating effects on the state's wetland areas. Coastal and benthic ecosystems have also been subject to many stressors as a result of runoff and groundwater contamination. Legislators have begun to consider the impact of ecosystem destruction not only ecologically but economically and have responded with increased funding and protective legislation designed to preserve the area.

  • SUGARLOAF KEY's HISTORIC RESOURCES by GEORGE BORN Published in the Key West Citizen on Sunday, March 25, 2007
    SUGARLOAF KEY'S HISTORIC RESOURCES BY GEORGE BORN Published in the Key West Citizen on Sunday, March 25, 2007 Throughout the history of Sugarloaf Key, people have created and left behind a number of historic sites and structures. Some have survived; others have perished. Native American settlement on the island is evidenced by a midden — or shell heap — on the gulfside of Upper Sugarloaf, facing Cudjoe Key. This area drew the first white settlement, too. The 1850 census notes Jonathan Thompson and two other men there, growing tropical fruits and sweet potatoes. Non-agricultural supplies had to be brought in from Key West. By the 1890s, J. Vining Harris, who built the Southernmost House in Key West, owned extensive areas of Lower Sugarloaf and had a wooden house there. In 1909, he sold some of this land to Charles and George Chase, who pioneered efforts to grow sponges in Sugarloaf Sound. Soon, the community of Chase sprung up, with a post office, houses and work buildings. None of these structures survive. The Sugarloaf Lodge stands in the area today. The building of the Overseas Railroad, which reached Key West in 1912, created the right-of- way and concrete-arch bridges still remaining. The latter include the Lower Sugarloaf Channel Bridge connecting the Saddlebunch Keys with Lower Sugarloaf, the Park Channel Bridge connecting Park Key with Upper Sugarloaf and the Bow Channel Bridge connecting Upper Sugarloaf with Cudjoe. World War I wound up having a significant influence on Sugarloaf, as the financial instability brought about by the war drove the Chase Brothers' sponge operation into bankruptcy.

  • Need for Deer-Warning Signs Along Additional Section of US-1 in the Florida Keys Rationale, Supporting Data, and Placement Location Suggestions
    Need for deer-warning signs along additional section of US-1 in the Florida Keys Rationale, supporting data, and placement location suggestions. Prepared by Save Our Key Deer, Inc. Contact: Valerie Preziosi – [email protected] 760-807-9064 Deer mortality data were obtained from USFWS Why are new signs needed? • Presently, signs on US-1 warning motorists of a possible collision with a Key Deer exist only on Big Pine Key. • Some of the signs incorrectly imply that there is no such collision danger west of Big Pine Key. • Key Deer inhabit several islands west of Big Pine Key where vehicle- deer collisions regularly occur but no warning signs exist. • The collisions cause damage to the endangered deer population, sometimes to the vehicle, and can lead to secondary collisions when unaware motorists swerve, trying to avoid the deer. Situation Background • While the largest population of Key Deer inhabits Big Pine Key, smaller sub-herds exist on several islands to the West. • The separate sub-herds are very important for lessening the Key Deer’s susceptibility to extinction. • In 2006 the sub-herds on Upper Sugarloaf and Cudjoe Keys were enhanced through deer translocation at considerable federal expense. • Expanding US-1 signage was included in the Key Deer Refuge’s Comprehensive Plan – but never followed through: Key Deer Vehicle collision deaths West of Big Pine Key May 2012 – July 2019 (no data available Oct. 2018 – May 2019) Collision hotspot areas have been identified Recommendations: 1) Add signs at the west boundary of Key Deer habitat (@ MM 16.5, Lower Sugarloaf Key, eastbound direction): “Drive with caution You are entering Key Deer habitat” Recommendations: 2) Install traditional diamond-shaped deer- warning signs at both ends of Lower Sugarloaf Key Upper Sugarloaf Key Cudjoe Key Summerland Key Ramrod Key Little Torch Key 3) Install additional flashing signs (as are now on BPK) at collision hotspot areas.
