2 This Acceler8 project includes the construction of above-groundimpoundments, a wetland buffer strip, pump stations, culverts, canals, Water controlstructures and seepage control systems. The five components that comprise the Water Preserve Areas are: Site 1 Impoundment, C-9 Impoundment, C-11 Impoundment, Acme Basin B Discharge, andWCA-3A/3B Seepage and Benefits Improve Everglades Water quality by diverting urban runoff into impoundments Improve hydropatterns in the Water Conservation Areas along with improvedflows to Everglades National Park Enhance and increase the spatial extent of wetlands adjacent to the remainingEverglades Reduce seepage of pristine Water from the Water Conservation Areas intourban areas.

3 Provide a buffer between natural and developed areas Reduce the amount of excess Water discharged to tide and lost to the systemin Palm Beach and Broward counties Provide supplemental Water supply deliveries and aquifer recharge to urbanareas, thus reducing demands on Lake Okeechobee and the Water Conserva-tion Areas Provide increased level of service for flood protection Provide public access and recreation opportunities Project Status Survey work completed or initiated. 30% project design work under way.
