Canal 928 (Figure 1)is located within the unincorporated area of Key Largo, Monroe County; Lat/Long (25.1647, -80.3838). Canal 990 (Figure 2) is located within the unincorporated area of Tavernier, Monroe County, Lat/Long (25.0289, -80.5076). PROJECT BACKGROUND: In 2013, Phase II of the Monroe County Canal Management Master Plan (CMMP) evaluated the conditions of the Keys canals,prioritized the need for water quality improvement, and identified appropriate restoration options for each canal: • Culvert • Air Curtain • Organic Removal • Backfill As part of the Canal Restoration Demonstration Program, Florida International University (FIU) assessed the effectiveness of the various technologies implemented by Monroe County and its partners by comparing treated canals against nearby,unaltered controls over aperiod of three years. Based on data collected during the limited monitoring period, F1U made the following conclusions about the backfill technology: • This technique resulted in an immediate change in the canal's water quality by significantly improving the water column's DO content. The decreased water depth allowed light to penetrate to the sediment. As a result, there were measurable increases in benthic vegetation,fish diversity and abundance and inhabitants of the sea walls. Since the demonstration canal restorations were proposed by Monroe County,the canal restoration program has grown to include 17 residential canal restoration projects throughout Monroe County. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Canals 928 and 990 are a continuation of the canal restoration program in accordance with the Department of Economic Opportunity(DEO) canal restoration workplan as detailed in the Monroe County 28.20.140 Comprehensive Plan.
