Wurming67 Posted July 29, 2018 Posted July 29, 2018 The more and more I read it really seems like these guys at Water management are really destroying alot of lakes and water systems in Florida,but you don't hear anything on the news about it. Is there anything we can do as law abiding citzens and tax payers?It's a shame what they are doing,I'm sure it's politically driven by money.
DINK WHISPERER Posted July 29, 2018 Posted July 29, 2018 Check out YouTube on the subject. MikeyBallz and Scott Martin have a few videos on it. Asides from useless town meetings that makes no difference I don't know of much else that can be done by the average Joe. They destroyed my favorite lake (Istokpoga) and are now doing it to Kissimmee and Okeechobee. 1

USUALLY, they do it righ at lox. you're right though, they are killing lake O. istokpoga still hasn't recovered. the best thing we can do is vote. find candidate in your district who is pro environment. 23 hours ago, Wurming67 said: I noticed at lox they got a new pump on west side which was never there and pumping water into lox, god only knows why, can't be good for the preserve its nuts. they are pumping water back into lox. doesn't make sense. 1

Super User geo g Posted July 31, 2018 Super User Posted July 31, 2018 It definitely has something to do with big sugar. They are calling the shots when it comes to following a money trail. Especially the trail of money to the elected officials. Big sugar and big dairy are the main players. 2
Super User J Francho Posted July 31, 2018 Super User Posted July 31, 2018 I realize the situation sucks, but we do not allow political discussions here, even as it relates to fishing. I suggest raising the issue locally, and contact your local representatives to voice your concerns. Thank you for understanding.
