	A Brief History of Perdido Bay
		Logging was a big industry on the bay for many years, and for part of the time, logs were moved to Pensacola Bay by taking them through a manmade cut dug approximately where the intracoastal waterway now connects Perdido Bay and Big Lagoon.
		The water in the bay near the mouths of creeks was fresh enough that freshwater fish were in the bay as well as in the creeks.
		The increased tidal flow caused a rise in the average salinity of the bay's water, contributing to a change in the overall ecology of the bay and its tributaries.

	Repairing Florida's Escambia Bay Bridge - 3/21/2005 - Dixie Contractor
		The Category 4 hurricane heavily damaged the Interstate 10 Bridge spanning Escambia Bay, and loss of the bridge meant that traffic had to detour 130 miles out of its way.

		By the time the surge struck the bridge structure, it reached points near the top of the deck, trapping air between the girders and generating a massive uplift.
