Date Issued:

Summary:
The Big Cypress Swamp and the Everglades are the two largest physiographic units in south Florida. The border between the units is an abrupt transition of plant communities. The forested, cypress-dominated landscape of the swamp is in distinct contrast to the wide open vista of marshes, praires and hardwood tree islands in the Everglades. The levee and accompanying canal (referred to as L-28) are part of the water management structures in south Florida managed by the South Florida Water Management District. The canal and levee follow the boundary between the Everglaes and Big Cypress physiographic units.
