The @sfwmd_gov held their FIRST public meeting on Big Sugar’s proposed rock mine today, one week after it was approved by the Palm Beach County Commissioners. Opposition was strong and widespread, not only from environmental groups but also from concerned residents throughout south Florida. We’re not going to let this thing slip through the cracks—we’re going to keep fighting it. Stay tuned, more to come. | Captains For Clean Water

Yesterday, we voiced our concerns at the @sfwmd_gov's first public hearing on Big Sugar's controversial Southland rock mine project.⁠ ⁠ Despite the PBC Commission's premature approval last week, opposition to the mine was loud and clear. ⁠ ⁠ Environmental advocates, concerned residents, and community leaders from across south Florida showed up and spoke out—exposing deep flaws in the process and demanding accountability for a project that threatens our waterways, communities, and public trust.⁠

It took just 9 years to dig a channel and destroy the Kissimmee River basin ecosystem but 22 years to bring it back! Now it continues its recovery and FPTA and SFWMD are dedicated to bringing recreational opportunities for the public by maintaining a 70 mile long paddling trail. Here volunteers are heading from the Seaboard Marsh South campsite to the Chandler Slough campsite. #floridapaddling #fpta #floridapaddlingtrailsassociation #sfwmd #kissimmeeriver #kissimmeeriverpaddlingtrail #southflori

🚨‼️SHOCKING DATA UNCOVERED... We recently uncovered that SFWMD quietly sent a key letter to the Southland group (Phillips & Jordan, Florida Crystals and U.S. Sugar), fast-tracking their rock mine proposal. This “Letter of Project Identification” is required by Palm Beach County zoning rules, and it basically endorses the mine as a “water resource project” and paves the path forward for Big Sugar to mine in an area currently not authorized for mining. But now, it's been revealed that SFWMD didn'

Big Sugar’s Southland rock mine was a big topic at this morning’s @sfwmd_gov meeting. For the first time, it became clear that some governing board members were beginning to see through the misinformation and deception surrounding this deeply flawed proposal. There's a lot to unpack, stay tuned. | Captains For Clean Water

Phillips & Jordan might wanna slow their roll... For months, we’ve been calling out the applicant (Phillips & Jordan) for misrepresenting this project as a “water resource project” approved by @sfwmd_gov, yet they continue to lobby it as such. It was made abundantly clear at yesterday’s @sfwmd_gov governing board meeting that the district is NOT on the same page as the applicant. We could see the governing board beginning to recognize that this proposal may have been manipulated from the start—a
