Port Everglades has given FIND a two-year fee-free License Agreement to use a 6-acre Port site to  drain and dry approximately 300,000 cubic yards of dredged materials from a project to dredge the Dania Cutoff Canal for larger boats and yachts. This required a Maintenance of Traffic agreement, which requires FIND to have a sweeper/cleaner on standby to immediately clean spills/dust as the dried product is being removed from the Port.
