All Boaters:
Army Corps of Engineers
Meeting on Thursday,
February 16, 2012 in
Clewiston, Florida addressed
the closure of the Moore
Haven Lock from April 2 -
May 25, 2012 to install a
manatee protection system.
This system detects the
manatee and prevents the
gates from closing and
harming the protected
animal.
after hearing the economic
and recreational concerns
expressed at last
night's meeting, the Corps
has adjusted the scheduled
lock closure to reduce
the impact to the local
communities," said Lt. Col.
Michael Kinard, deputy
district commander. "This
timeframe will allow the
lock to remain open
further into the boating
season, while allowing us to
complete the
installation at the
beginning of the hurricane
season when the risk is
low."
the adjustment comes after
local business owners,
recreational boaters and
residents expressed concerns
about closing the locks
earlier in the spring
due to heavy usage of the
facilities.
Iafter the meeting on the
16th the CORP sent out a
News Release (see below) on
the 17th .. |
