Planned

Multiple navigation locks on the north shore of Lake Okeechobee in Florida could close if water levels drop below certain thresholds due to drought and lack of rainfall. The closures would impact navigation through the Okeechobee Waterway, affecting boat movement between the St. Lucie Canal and the Caloosahatchee River.
