The Water Conservation Area system ecompasses about 3500 km(2) of diked Everglades marhland in southern Florida. These areas are managed by the South Florida Water Management District for a variety of purposes including flood control, water conservation storage, groundwater recharge, preservation of fish and wildlife resources, and recreational benefits. Much of the water entering the Water Conservation Areas is runoff from agricultural lands; this water contains high phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations compared to the water of the interior marshes.
