7/2/25 UPDATE AND ATTENTION to those sincere folks that -- like me -- support the notion of restoring to free-flowing-again the Ocklawaha River by the breaching of Kirkpatrick / Rodman Dam. On 7/1/25 Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) performed a line-item veto of the $6.25 million that the Florida Legislature in SB 2500 had approved and appropriated in the 2025-2026 FY budget that was delivered to the Governor on 6/27/25. Therefore, I believe that I need to add the Honorable Governor Ron DeSantis (R) as a decision maker to this petition.

The other four decision makers are:
State of Florida House of Representatives
Email your local Representative
State of Florida Senate
Email your local State Senator
St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD)
Email Ombudsman: ABaggett@sjrwmd.com
Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP)
