After nearly three years, Army Corps finalizes their modeling for the new Lake O operations manual
Yesterday, the Army Corps of Engineers announced the ‘optimized lake schedule model run’ for the future Lake Okeechobee System Operating Manual (LOSOM).
It was a huge decision in the LOSOM process because the selected model run will serve as the framework for the final operational plan.
Bottom line, it looks significantly better than the current operational plan, which has plagued our coastal estuaries with harmful discharges and starved the Everglades for the past dozen years.
Although this doesn't mark the end of the process, with this selection, the course is mostly set for how the plan will be written and what it will mean for the distribution of water in south Florida.
