2. Muck Removal and Depth Restoration: We demand a feasibility study and funding for a large-scale

Board of County Commissioners Regular Meeting · 2026-05-26 · agenda_item

A feasibility study and funding are being sought for a large-scale dredging project to restore the historic depth and sandy bottom of Lake Okahumpka. This project is planned and currently under review. The work would involve significant muck removal and depth restoration, potentially including site clearing and grading, underwater excavation, and material transport. Long-term invasive species management, focusing on native aquatic vegetation, is also part of the plan. Contractors specializing in dredging, marine construction, environmental services, and heavy equipment operation may find opportunities. Early engagement is advised as the project is in its initial planning stages.
