Section 2 Existing Conditions/Affected Environment

EAA Storage Reservoirs Revised Draft PIR and EIS February 2006

2-57

has been finalized and it has been determined if any of them need to remain on

an interim basis for construction purposes.

In the area between the proposed EAA Reservoir and Lake Okeechobee where

there are proposed canal conveyance improvements to the North New River

Canal, there are a number of bridges with telephone and communications lines

and, in some cases, water and sewer lines suspended from them. Most of these

bridges will need to be replaced and the utilities will be relocated as part of the

bridge construction projects. In the case of the proposed canal conveyance

improvements to the Cross and Bolles canals, the need for relocations of existing

utility facilities that cross or run parallel to the Cross and Bolles canals will

depend on the final project design and the location of the additional right-of-way

to be acquired to implement the improvements. This includes one FPL 138kV

transmission line that crosses the Bolles Canal approximately 2 miles west of

US 27.

There is also a Florida East Coast Railroad line that traverses the northern

portion of the EAA and includes spurs that provides service to the major sugar

mills in the area. They cross the Miami Canal in two locations, one

approximately 2 miles north of the Bolles Canal (L-21) and one approximately 3

miles south of the Bolles Canal.

The following map, Figure 2-4, depicts the existing bridges, roads and structures

within the EAA Storage Reservoir region.

On the follow map, most of the bridges shown are not FDOT bridges. Only three

of the existing bridges shown are FDOT and will be affected by the project.

Those three are: SR-80 and SR-827 bridges over North New River and the U.S.

27 Bridge over the Bolles Canal. One new bridge or culvert will be constructed

on U.S. 27 at the location of S-609.
