U.S.'s plan doubles the acres designated as critical habitat for manatees in Florida. (WLRN South Florida)

This map released by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service shows the proposed critical habitat for manatees in Florida.

Excerpt from this story from WLRN South Florida:

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service on Monday announced a plan to more than double the critical habitat designated for manatees in Florida to 1.9 million acres.

The proposed revisions also include a new designation of 78,121 acres in Puerto Rico for the Antillean manatee.

In Florida, the lands affected are 34% federal, 57% state, 7% local government and 2% private. Federal permits or funding within the habitat has to be reviewed by the Fish and Wildlife Service to prevent harm to the species.

Nikki Colangelo, a supervisor with the agency in Florida, said the maps benefit from decades of information gathering and data about manatees.

The Florida map adds Silver Springs, Tampa Bay and Withlacoochee Bay. "One of the main features that are essential for Florida manatee," Colangelo said, "are these areas of water that are warmed by natural processes. So, you know, the spring areas and thermal basins are extremely important for the species."

The revised map is nearly 15 years in the making -- since environmental groups, including the Center for Biological Diversity, got the wildlife agency to acknowledge it needed to update the one created in 1977.

The revisions come now, only because the environmental groups continued to press for them and, in 2022, the Fish and Wildlife Service agreed to submit a plan by this month. A comment period is open until Nov. 25.

The end of the rainbow has a pot of gold. Yesterday, Robin MacBlane and I found it. It was there all along. Right where the Rainbow River ends and flows into the Withlacoochee River. Dunnellon’s City Beach. The Chaplin Dinkins III Memorial Park. I painted this scene from our visit in watercolor and gouache on a blank greeting card.

Place names in Florida, ranked:

Tampa - I have a love-hate relationship with this city so I'm a bit biased. Overall the good outweighs the bad. 7/10

Ybor City - a name you can smell. As soon as you mention it everyone knows what you mean. Unfortunately what you mean is seldom anything good. 6/10

Lakeland - what it says on the tin, but painfully unimaginative. Do better. 3/10

Plant City - okay but this doesn't sound like a real place, sounds like it belongs in the DC comics universe. Would be better if it had some crossbow hunters or mutant gorillas or something. 5/10

Kissimmee - the place itself is annoyingly overrun with Disney adults but the name is impeccable. I have no constructive criticism to offer here. 10/10

Orlando - Tampa's more polished, less sketchy, annoyingly smug sibling. Sure, you might not get mugged here, but you're even more likely to get taken out by a maniac who thinks they're an F1 driver with a Minnie Mouse bumper sticker. 4/10

Winter Park - don't let the name deceive you. There is no winter, there are no seasons, linear time has no meaning here. Unwary travelers may get trapped in an endless labyrinth of subdivision streets and golf course grass. 1/10

Palatka - never actually been here other than driving through, but it rolls off the tongue. 8/10

Starke - if you like stomping around in the swamp, and sleeping under the stars and amid the chiggers, you'll love it here. The name is very fitting. 9/10

Jacksonville - once again not terribly imaginative, but I have no complaints about this one. Like Orlando but with less of a superiority complex. 7/10

Bonus:

Withlacoochee - I need to plan a camping trip to Withlacoochee just so I can tell everyone I'm headed to Withlacoochee. Tried to take a picture of the sign but it came out blurry. 11/10

We fished two spots hard on the Withlacoochee river on day 1 in an attempt to catch a Suwannee Bass… hours of fishing produced no fish and no bites. The Withlacoochee where we fished was a tough spot to fish. Medium to rapid moving wide river that is shallow with few deep spots for fish.

Heroes Daring Restoration of Power to Withlacoochee Electric Cooperative Member after Hurricane Milton

In the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, which brought devastating winds, torrential rain, flooding, and significant storm surges to Florida, the Withlacoochee River Electric Cooperative (WREC) worked tirelessly to restore power to the over 170,000 of its 260,000 members that were out of power. Among the many heroes in this monumental effort were the dedicated crews from DEMCO (Dixie Electric Membership Corporation) in Louisiana, who came to assist WREC in those challenging times.  In an extraordinary demonstration of dedication, DEMCO crews were filmed working in chest-deep water and even diving underwater to locate the end of a wire—a video that garnered national attention. Their efforts were aimed at reconnecting power for just two of our members. The area, notorious for its alligators and snakes, added to the perilous conditions. The bravery and commitment of these crews were truly commendable.  Members of the community also expressed their appreciation for the hard work and dedication of the crews. "Seeing these men working tirelessly in such difficult conditions was truly inspiring. We are grateful for their efforts and support from DEMCO," said one WREC Member.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-9rrT8hXZ0 Inspiring "above and beyond" work by electric cooperative DEMCO linemen in restoring power to a Withlacoochee River Electric Cooperative member after Hurricane Milton. Video courtesy of WREC This act of solidarity came just a month after WREC sent its own crews to assist DEMCO with their restoration efforts following Hurricane Francine. The mutual aid between these two cooperatives underscored the strength and resilience of the cooperative network. When one community was in need, others stepped up to provide support, demonstrating the true spirit of cooperation and unity.  Visiting Electric Cooperative Linemen and Contractors Come to the Nature Coast to Help Restore Power after Hurricane Milton The restoration efforts were a massive undertaking, with crews working around the clock to repair damaged infrastructure and restore power. David Lambert, General Manager of WREC, expressed his gratitude for the assistance provided by the nearly 1,500 linemen (co-op and contractor crews) and tree trimming crews that came to assist in the restoration efforts.   Lambert added, “This was a historic storm and an even more historic restoration effort. Thanks to all the hard work from WREC crews, our partner cooperatives, and contractors, we were able to reach the “fully restored” mark within the first 72 hours!” Look at the van behind the power pole! Image courtesy of Withlacoochee River Electric. Cooperative mutual aid crews included DEMCO (LA), SLEMCO (LA), Talquin EC (FL), Central Florida EC (FL), Washington-St. Tammy Elec. (MS), Claiborne EC (LA), Holmes-Wayne EC (OH),  Forked Deer EC (TN), Steele-Waseca Co-op (MN), Dakota Electric Assoc. (MN), Great Lakes Energy  EC (MI), Presque Isle Elec. & Gas (MI), HomeWorks Tri-County EC (MI), Wolverine Power Co-op (MI),  Michigan Electric (MI), Beauregard, and Tri-County(TX).  Contract crews included Tec, Premium, Integrity, Pike, One Source, ULCS, and Davey.  In addition to the line crews and tree trimming crews, Withlacoochee River Electric Cooperative office and support personnel worked 16-hour days and canceled planned time off to assist in the restoration of power to their members.
