Florida’s SB10 (2017 |FL) did 2 things:
- prohibited the use of eminent domain &
- “mandated the construction of a reservoir south of Lake Okeechobee”
- “to reduce discharges to the St. Lucie and Caloosahatchee estuaries in an effort to quash the harmful blue-green algal blooms that have wreaked havoc on Florida waters in recent years”
This week, the results are clear, the reservoir is on target a pace faster than anticipated and no eminent domain is being used.
