SARGASSUM HOT SPOTS
Recreation, Tourism, and Resiliency Committee · 2026-07-14 · resolution
Miami-Dade County is seeking to modify Field Permit No. 8042676-DA, which currently allows mechanical beach cleaning for sargassum removal at specific locations. The proposed modification would grant the County discretion to select additional sargassum hot spots for cleaning without requiring further Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) approvals. This aims to improve the efficiency of sargassum removal, which is impacting tourism and resident quality of life. The Recreation, Tourism, and Resiliency Committee forwarded this matter to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) with a favorable recommendation.
