This letter serves as the Miami River Commission's (MRC) "official
statement" as requested in City Resolution 00-320, regarding the July
9, 2015, City of Miami Commission Agenda Item RE.10, which
impacts the Miami River.
The Wagner Creek / Seybold Canal is considered the most
contaminated waterway in the State of Florida and requires immediate
remediation before the contamination migrates to other areas in the
Miami River. Thus, the MRC vigorously recommends approval of
RE. 10, for the City's Wagner Creek and Seybold Canal Maintenance
Dredging and Environmental Cleanup Project, which will significantly
improve the environment and the local business economy.
Your time and continued support of the City and the Miami River
District is very much appreciated.
Sincerely,
•
