Committee OKs bill designating Andrew Redd Harris Shoals and directing DEP to mark the site
Senator Trudeau presented CS/CS for SB 1288 to designate a water body feature called the Andrew Redd Harris Shoals and to direct the Department of Environmental Protection to erect appropriate markers denoting that designation. Trudeau said the foundation named for Andrew Redd Harris had built artificial reef trails offshore of Jupiter and Juno Beach and that the bill's marker costs for DEP are expected to be absorbed within existing resources.

Senator Burton asked for background on Andrew Redd Harris; the sponsor noted the foundation’s reef-building activities. The committee reported the bill favorably.
