In this mention

Former U.S. Senator Bob Graham, founder of the Florida Conservation Coalition, opposes HB 703, a bill sponsored by Rep. Jimmy Patronis that would extend water-use permits up to 50 years and limit local government authority over land-use and environmental regulations. The Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, along with Sierra Club Florida and Audubon Florida, has also criticized the bill for potentially privatizing water resources and weakening environmental protections.
