    PAHOKEE WATER CONTROL DISTRICT, Appellant, v. SOUTH FLORIDA WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT, an agency of the State of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 91-2152.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    March 24, 1993.
    Sanford L. Bohrer, Carol A. Licko and Parker D. Thomson of Thomson Muraro Bohrer & Razook, P.A., Miami, for appellant.
    Stanley J. Niego, West Palm Beach, R. Benjamine Reid and Paul L. Nettleton of Popham Haik Schnobrich & Kaufman, Ltd., Miami, for appellee.
   BRESCHER, GEORGE A., Associate Judge.

AFFIRMED. See Florida Sugar Cane League, Inc. v. South Florida Water Management District, 617 So.2d 1065 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993). As we found in the cited case in a nearly identical situation, we find here that the appellant’s rights to an administrative hearing pursuant to section 120.57, Florida Statutes (1991) are preserved, and that the appellee acted correctly in denying the petition for such relief as being premature.

STONE, J., and OWEN, WILLIAM G, Jr., Senior Judge, concur.
