The LWDD continues featuring the work of the Aquatics Crew this August with a shout out to one of their leaders.

Megan Hoffman, Vegetation Management Section Lead, oversees several teams who keep 500 miles of canals maintained and flowing for flood control.

During her 19 years of public service at the LWDD, Megan has been instrumental in leading many important initiatives. Most recently, she served as the project manager for the District’s Canal Rehabilitation Program, which effectively removed exotic vegetation from more than 180 miles of canals to protect homes and businesses.

Megan, a true-crime junkie, is also a dog mom of two, stepmom of one and is involved in her community.

Thanks for all you do Megan. ... See MoreSee Less

Whether in a truck, boat or on foot, the LWDD Aquatics Crew utilizes an array of tools to keep vegetation from blocking the flow of water in 500 miles of canals. They also manage vegetation on 1,000 miles of associated rights-of-way across southeastern Palm Beach County.
