The Everglades Agricultural Area Reservoir A-1 Project is located in western Palm Beach County. It is situated in the EAA directly north of Stormwater Treatment Area 3/4, between the North New River Canal and Miami Canal, and west of U.S. Highway 27. It also adjoins the Holey Land Wildlife Management Area to the southwest.

The EAA Reservoir A-1 facilities will be designed to improve the timing of environmental water supply deliveries to STA-3/4 and the Water Conservation Areas, reduce Lake Okeechobee regulatory releases to the estuaries, meet supplemental agricultural demands, and increase flood protection within the EAA. The work is to be performed by the United States Army Corps of Engineers.

Presently, this project is under construction, but is on hold.
