It is the intent of the Legislature to provide an economic incentive to encourage the reclamation of the maximum number of acres of eligible nonmandatory lands in the most timely and efficient manner or the donation or purchase of nonmandatory lands.
Florida Ecological Restoration Inventory (FERI) was funded by a grant from 2001-2003. The inventory is no longer maintained by the department, and any information previously contained within is outdated.
