Committing to Everglades Restoration: Protecting Water Supply and Flood Resilience.

This resolution commemorates the 25th anniversary of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP), a major bipartisan federal-state effort.

The plan also safeguards homes, schools, and critical infrastructure from saltwater intrusion and extreme weather.
Key points
Reaffirmation of the commitment to continued Federal and State investments necessary to complete authorized CERP projects on schedule.
The plan protects homes, schools, and critical infrastructure by strengthening Florida's resilience against extreme storms, flooding, and saltwater intrusion.
Recognition of the massive economic importance of the Everglades, estimated to provide $1 trillion in value to the State and Nation.
