					<description><![CDATA[As they prepare for the 2017 Legislative Session, Central Florida lawmakers are looking out for help for the emerging Advanced Manufacturing Research Center in Osceola County, the demise of the Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute in Lake Nona, and I-4 throughout the region. Those are things almost everyone in Central Florida&#8217;s delegation is examining. The Democrats add, don&#8217;t forget about Pulse, and the economic fairness and mental health issues everyone spoke of during the election campaigns this year. But&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Addressing water infrastructure concerns could cost billions over the next 20 years, leaving state and local officials to figure out where to get the money to make improvements to an aging system. One possible source of revenue? Money set aside from the 2014 water and land conservation amendment. The constitutional amendment set aside one-third of money collected through real estate documentary stamps for conservation over the next 20 years. And while many people focus on land acquisition when they discuss&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Environmentalists shouldn’t be the only ones sounding the alarm when it comes to Florida’s water quality concerns. Instead, Sen. Jack Latvala said all of the state’s stakeholders need to work together to address the issues affecting Florida’s water. “It’s not just (environmentalists). It’s not just the white hats with petitions and protests,” said Latvala, a Clearwater Republican and the incoming chairman of the Senate appropriations committee. “These are business issues. If we allow those (resources) to be desecrated in any&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Moving residents off septic systems should be included in efforts to clean up the Indian River Lagoon, experts said Thursday. Experts said wastewater run-off and septic systems play a role in the algae blooms that have plagued South Florida in recent years. And while it is just part of the problem, one expert said money may be better spent focusing on septic systems instead of buying land south of Lake Okeechobee. “I don’t see that buying land south of the&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Just days ahead of the Olympic Games the waterways of Rio de Janeiro are as filthy as ever, contaminated with raw human sewage teeming with dangerous viruses and bacteria, according to a 16-month-long study commissioned by The Associated Press. Not only are some 1,400 athletes at risk of getting violently ill in water competitions, but the AP&#8217;s tests indicate that tourists also face potentially serious health risks on the golden beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana.

					<description><![CDATA[U.S. Rep. Gwen Graham&#8216;s ever-busy comms shop released a new video Monday reviewing the congresswoman&#8217;s recent trip to Wakulla Springs, an ecologically sensitive tourist attraction and environmental lynchpin for North Florida. Graham piloted a boat, took samples of the now-murky spring water, and spoke with local activists who are pushing for action to return the springs and surrounding waterways to their once pristine clarity. The first-term Democrat from Tallahassee decried the disappearance of glass-bottom boats in Wakulla, once a staple of the&#8230;]]></description>
