Abstract
The Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP) is a strategy to improve the function and quality of the South Florida ecosystem. This plan is being developed as a partnership between the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). Because of the scale of the CERP, the SFWMD elected to create Acceler8 to expedite the funding and construction of eight CERP projects. One of the projects selected for design and construction under Acceler8 is the Everglades Agricultural Area Storage Reservoir (EAASR) — Phase 1. Because of the planning and funding processes for the USACE and the SFWMD differences arise in the development of alternatives and selection of a preferred alternative. This paper addresses the issues that occur, and suggests a method to develop a cohesive approach for development of the EAASR.
