Date: May 5, 2009

Time: 4:30 PM

Bronson, Florida- On May 5, 2009 Levy and Dixie County has reopened all public boat ramps on the Suwannee River. We are happy to report that the river has receded and life along the river is getting back to normal.

The Fowlers Bluff was a major concern for Officials since the flood level is at 5.5 feet and there was flooding in several homes. The current river level in Fowlers Bluff is at 4.15 feet. Manatee and Fanning Springs are open to the public but swimming is not allowed.
