The Legislature answered the call of Everglades and estuary advocates by passing Senate Bill 10 today.   
 
“Senate Bill 10 will reduce harmful discharges from Lake Okeechobee to the coastal estuaries and send water south to nourish the Everglades. We congratulate Senate President Joe Negron and Senator Rob Bradley for their perseverance and leadership,” said Eric Draper, Audubon Florida executive director.
