|Description=I am 156 miles long, winding, mysterious and full of life. I dance with the wind, I’m washed by the rain, and I provide food, shelter, and nursery to a complex web of life – dolphins, manatee, mullet, redfish, blue herons, pelicans, osprey, shoals of oysters…and people.
|Description=Mission


Encompassing 40% of the East Coast of Florida, millions of people live, play, and make a living along my shores. Billions of dollars flow from the benefits I bring. Over time, I’ve been part of human endeavor from Native Americans to astronauts. I’ve proven my resilience and value as an international treasure and the lifeblood of Florida.
1. To attain and maintain water and sediment of sufficient quality to support a healthy estuarine lagoon ecosystem;
 
2. To attain and maintain a functioning, healthy ecosystem which supports endangered and threatened species, fisheries, commerce and recreation;
I can take away your hunger. I can make you forget your worries. I am an invitation to millions who want to visit. I create the stories you will tell your grandchildren. But sadly, I am not understood. Over time, I have become unhealthy and unappreciated, even among the people who live right along my shoreline.
3. To achieve heightened public awareness and coordinated interagency management of the Indian River Lagoon ecosystem;
 
and
Now, instead of being the backdrop for your family fun and adventure, I am known for unwanted algae blooms and horrendous fish kills. But this moment does not define what I could be once again. I need people to work together to fix my problems. The causes are complex. No single entity is at fault, and no single solution will work.
4. To identify and develop long-term funding sources for prioritized projects and programs to preserve, protect, restore and enhance the Indian River Lagoon.
 
I want to support your children and grandchildren by providing food, jobs, natural beauty, clean water, and opportunity. I will always be here – but in what form is up to you. Ultimately, what you do with me will unite or divide you. And as I go, so goes potentially all of Florida…and maybe the world.
 
For my human friends, for all of the life that I sustain, I must be heard, understood and respected. I am resilient, but I need your help to recover my biological diversity, water quality and health. Please, remember what I once was…with clean, clear water, world-class fishing and boating opportunities, with a robust, diverse wildlife population…and respect what I could be again. I can be strong with your stewardship and diligent assistance. This is our moment. Please work with me in a thoughtful and sustainable way. We could ignore the size and impact of our challenges or together we can ensure a dynamic coastal economy, put innovative technologies to work, and lead the way to a sustainable future with worldwide appreciation of our unique coastal assets and intimate connection.
