Environmentally Endangered Land Site A Miami-Dade County
About This Dataset
This dataset maps all Environmentally Endangered Land (EEL) sites across Miami-Dade County, showing where sensitive ecosystems and natural habitats are protected. It's important because these sites represent some of our most valuable environmental areas—wetlands, mangroves, and wildlife corridors—that need special protection and are key to our county's climate resilience and flood protection.
Why This Matters
- A developer or property owner checking whether land they're considering is designated as EEL, which affects what development is allowed
- An environmental nonprofit planning conservation efforts or habitat restoration projects in specific areas of the county
- A resident researching natural areas near their home to understand local environmental protections and wildlife habitat quality
