During cold weather, manatees congregate at the warm water outflows near power plants. FPL has worked closely with regulatory agencies and environmental organizations for more than 30 years to ensure that manatees are protected, and our leadership role has been recognized by numerous environmental organizations worldwide. We have conducted hundreds of aerial surveys, constructed and operate Manatee Lagoon — An FPL Eco-Discovery Center, published and distributed thousands of pieces of educational literature, and sponsored extensive research on manatee habitat and behavior.
