GCS has now officially joined the band wagon against draining the St.Johns River. The article says most all communities in the NE region are against it. It's the entity of the SJRMD that is supporting it.
Lets not come in after the decision has been made and rail against it. Contact your legislators and support your local goverment on this issue if you feel draining the River may bring on consequences that no one is truly qualified to fathom decades on down the line. There are so many variables in the eco system there is no expert that can really know. They just guess based upon their best information and experience.
If you're ok with it then you can do the opposite of course.
