New Artificial Reef Created in Florida from Recycled Concrete

St. Augustine Beach, FL, resident Amy Kennedy spent more than a year planning her recent "cruises." Kennedy, a project engineer for the Flagler County Engineering Department, spent two days on the Atlantic on commercial barges, where she oversaw the dumping of more than 800 tons of concrete at designated areas 15 miles offshore east of Marineland. Late Wednesday, the dumping site became the area’s newest artificial reef as the second and final load was dumped.
