Ms.
Trudi Williams, Chairman
South
Florida Water Management District
3301 Gun Club Road
West Palm Beach
,
Florida
33416-4680
Dear
Ms. Williams,
We
understand that the Board of Governors will soon consider a proposal to add
waters within the
Charlotte
Harbor
area to the District’s Surface
Water Improvement & Management program.
We wholeheartedly support such an action, and ask you and the other
members of the Board of Governors to approve of this proposal!
The
waters of the
Charlotte
Harbor
area are some of the most significant waters in
this region, and their protection is important to all the citizens of
Southwest Florida
. Development
and implementation of a SWIM management plan will help to ensure that
Charlotte
Harbor
’s natural resources are safeguarded so that
future generations can enjoy the economic, social and aesthetic values that
these waters provide.
Sincerely,
Michael
R. Bauer, J.D., Ph.D.
Chairman
