If you fix erosion, you fix marshes. That should be lumped into one.
I don't think LDWF should be responsible for fixing what the Feds did when
they dredged the ship channel and what the oil companies did when they dig
canals and ditches.
It took years, but now if you dig do anything to affect wetlands, you have to
have an approved mitigation plan. You damage 1 acre of wetlands, you have
to improve 2 acres somewhere else as a mitigation plan.
LDWF had no say so in letting anyone dredge or dig on private or public lands,
why should they have to foot the bill for what the State and Feds approved?
Just my opinion.

thats a very very minimum rate. you are right wildlife and fisheries's main concern is not coastal loss, but with coastal erosion you loose habitat, so they must be involved, but NO they should not foot the bill.
