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; (13.4) 58.3 Month Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Year 2 Geology Jewish Museum of Florida Miami Beach, Including its marginal seas the Atlantic covers an area of 106,460,000 km2 (41,100,000 sq mi) or 23.5% of the global ocean and has a volume of 310,410,900 km3 (74,471,500 cu mi) or 23.3% of the total volume of the earth's oceans Excluding its marginal seas the Atlantic covers 81,760,000 km2 (31,570,000 sq mi) and has a volume of 305,811,900 km3 (73,368,200 cu mi) the North Atlantic covers 41,490,000 km2 (16,020,000 sq mi) (11.5%) and the South Atlantic 40,270,000 km2 (15,550,000 sq mi) (11.1%) the average depth is 3,646 m (11,962 ft) and the maximum depth the Milwaukee Deep in the Puerto Rico Trench is 8,486 m (27,841 ft)!
In 1763 Spain traded Florida to the Kingdom of Great Britain for control of Havana Cuba which had been captured by the British during the Seven Years' War it was part of a large expansion of British territory following their victory in the Seven Years' War a large portion of the Floridano population left taking along most of the remaining indigenous population to Cuba the British soon constructed the King's Road connecting St Augustine to Georgia the road crossed the St Johns River at a narrow point called Wacca Pilatka or the British name "Cow Ford" ostensibly reflecting the fact that cattle were brought across the river there, Following this period of rapid development and environmental degradation the ecosystem began to receive notable attention from conservation groups in the 1970s Internationally UNESCO and the Ramsar Convention designated the Everglades a Wetland Area of Global Importance the construction of a large airport 6 miles (9.7 km) north of Everglades National Park was blocked when an environmental study found that it would severely damage the South Florida ecosystem With heightened awareness and appreciation of the region restoration began in the 1980s with the removal of a canal that had straightened the Kissimmee River However development and sustainability concerns have remained pertinent in the region the deterioration of the Everglades including poor water quality in Lake Okeechobee was linked to the diminishing quality of life in South Florida's urban areas in 2000 the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan was approved by Congress to combat these problems to date,[when?] it is the most expensive and comprehensive environmental restoration attempt in history but its implementation has faced political complications. 7 Legacy Panoramic view of the bay from the Port of Miami, Homestead Base Another major economic engine in Florida is the United States military There are 24 military bases in the state housing three Unified Combatant Commands; United States Central Command in Tampa United States Southern Command in Doral and United States Special Operations Command in Tampa Some 109,390 U.S military personnel stationed in Florida contributing directly and indirectly $52 billion a year to the state's economy.
