Justina Dacey has marked this issue as resolved.
Lisa Rinaman spoke with Erick Revuelta, Compliance Coordinator with the SJRWMD. He reports that the contractor did hit the water table and had to dewater the site which they are allowed to do up to 30 days without a permit. Recently, the contractor pulled a permit that will allow them to dewater up to 190 days as long as they have the appropriate sedimentation/turbidity controls. River Patrol member Lowell Stephens lives in the area and will drop by regularly to inspect.
