Restoring the EvergladesAlthough the goal of the project

is the restoration of the

everglades it was our job to tie

the various project throughout

the region with good vertical

and horizontal control.

As you can see from the map

the project cover a much

larger area that the true

restoration. This is one of the

reasons for the establishment

of 800 miles of new level lines.
