The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Crisis Action Team visited the Suwanee River Water Management and other water management districts in the path of the Cat. 4 storm Hurricane Helene. The Jacksonville District sends teams to conduct post-damage assessments on Federal projects. From there, project implementation reports are initiated to determine project eligibility for PL84-99 FCCE rehabilitation funding.
The Suwannee River Water Management District, executive director Hugh Thomas, hand with the tiny flowering aquatic plant known as duckweed; this plant floats over the top of a pond behind the Suwannee River Water Management District's office. Duckweed, also called water lentil and water lenses, is a subgroup of small aquatic flowering plants commonly found in nutrient-rich stagnant waterbodies, like ponds and wetlands. In addition to providing oxygen to its aquatic habitat these plants have an excellent ability to remove pollutants, such as microplastics and metals, in contaminated environments.
