Limestone Creek 9 8973, Booker T Washington High School Highways 10 Bibliography Several ecosystems are present in the Everglades and boundaries between them are subtle or absent the primary feature of the Everglades is the sawgrass marsh the iconic water and sawgrass combination in the shallow river 100 miles (160 km) long and 60 miles (97 km) wide that spans from Lake Okeechobee to Florida Bay is often referred to as the "true Everglades" or just "the Glades" Prior to the first drainage attempts in 1905 the sheetflow occupied nearly a third of the lower Florida peninsula Sawgrass thrives in the slowly moving water but may die in unusually deep floods if oxygen is unable to reach its roots It is particularly vulnerable immediately after a fire the hydroperiod for the marsh is at least nine months and can last longer Where sawgrass grows densely few animals or other plants live although alligators choose these locations for nesting Where there is more room periphyton grows Periphyton supports larval insects and amphibians which in turn are consumed as food by birds fish and reptiles it also absorbs calcium from water which adds to the calcitic composition of the marl!

A national push for expansion and progress in the United States occurred in the later part of the 19th century which stimulated interest in draining the Everglades for agricultural use According to historians "From the middle of the nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century the United States went through a period in which wetland removal was not questioned Indeed it was considered the proper thing to do." Draining the Everglades was suggested as early as 1837 and a resolution in Congress was passed in 1842 that prompted Secretary of Treasury Robert J Walker to request those with experience in the Everglades to give their opinion on the possibility of drainage Many officers who had served in the Seminole Wars favored the idea in 1850 Congress passed a law that gave several states wetlands within their state boundaries the Swamp and Overflowed Lands Act ensured that the state would be responsible for funding the attempts at developing wetlands into farmlands Florida quickly formed a committee to consolidate grants to pay for any attempts though the Civil War and Reconstruction halted progress until after 1877.
