LUCIE COUNTY — There will be intermittent closures at the St. Lucie Lock to conduct maintenance on the automated Manatee Protection System, to ensure we maintain zero risk to local wildlife and remain compliant with safety protocols, lock operations must pause lock operations whenever this system is offline.
