Project managers from USACE and our partners at the South Florida Water Management District will provide updates on all phases of the Central Everglades Planning Project, or CEPP, including the CEPP South, CEPP North, CEPP New Water and CEPP Everglades Agricultural Area phases.

CEPP focuses restoration on more natural flows into and through the central and southern Everglades by increasing storage and treatment south of Lake Okeechobee, improving conveyance to the Central Everglades and removing barriers to flow to Everglades National Park.

The CEPP implementation effort also supports the Army Civil Works’ “Building Infrastructure, Not Paperwork” (BINP) initiative, which emphasizes efficient delivery of priority water resources infrastructure while maintaining the environmental and engineering requirements necessary to implement these projects.
