Item 8.01    Other Events


On September 19, 2018 the South Florida Water Management District issued a press release announcing the issuance of an Environmental Resource Permit for Alico, Inc. The SFWMD release also stated that (i) the issuance of the permit cleared the path for Alico, Inc. to deliver a dispersed water storage project in the Caloosahatchee Watershed, (ii) Alico, Inc. has all necessary state approvals to proceed, and (iii) the project is expected to be operational within one year from the start of construction.

Alico, Inc. is pleased to have completed this important step in the approval process. However, it is important to note that Alico, Inc. still needs to obtain additional local and federal approvals before construction can begin. These approvals include a compatible use agreement from the Natural Resources Conservation Service as well as approvals from the local water control districts.
