The City of Jacksonville is planning to remove and dispose of four derelict vessels from public waterways within Duval County. This project is funded by a $77,440 grant from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. The City's Office of Administrative Services, Environmental Quality Division, will oversee the work. The project is currently under review and has been introduced to the City Council. The scope of work will involve the removal and disposal of the vessels, which may require specialized marine contractors and equipment. This early stage presents an opportunity for local contractors, suppliers, and service providers to engage with the city before final plans and permits are established. Reaching out now could provide a competitive advantage for potential work related to marine salvage, waste disposal, and related services.
