Attention all concerned boaters! In conjunction with Notice to Navigation: 2025-020 (Possible floating tussock hazard to navigation in the Okeechobee Waterway near Route 2) a very large floating tussock (approximately 10 acres) was blown into the channel last night near Route 2. The navigation channel is temporarily closed until our team can remove it. We are asking for patience, while we remove the material using mechanical means (heavy equipment).
For the current Lake Okeechobee water levels, please see: https://w3.saj.usace.army.mil/h2o/currentLL.shtml
