New release: 2012-2017 Everglades Report Card

South Florida, USA. The Everglades Report Card and 2019 System Status Report, and associated website were released on April 23, 2019. These products are the culmination of two years or work and participation by dozens of stakeholders. The project wouldn't have been possible without the REstoration COordination and VERification program (RECOVER), that includes the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the South Florida Water Management District, and other Florida state agencies, federal agencies, and tribes. With a score of 45, out of a possible 100, the report card assesses overall Everglades ecological health as fair for the five-year period 2012–2017.
