    U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), biologist Jessica Dell, Ph.D. holds an alligator hatchling, during a field outing with the University of Florida's Research and Education Center team in the Everglades where they went out to collect data on the alligators natively located in the park. Alligators have to reach up to six feet in length before they can be considered an adult, which can take about ten years.

    Collecting field data is extremely important to RECOVER (REstoration COordination & VERification) which is made up of a multi-agency team of scientists, modelers, planners, and resource specialists. The information they collect and synthesize informs the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP).

    We are the nation's Environmental Engineers with over four thousand of the USACE workforce specializing in unique environmental disciplines. We make a difference in the lives of American citizens through Everglades restoration we provide clean water to over 8 million people in the state of Florida. (U.S. Army Photo by Brigida Sanchez)
