Still The One!
One of the first Aquatic Trash Barriers in Florida! It was part of our PROJECT WATERGOAT initiative almost 25 years ago. (Location St. Petersburg Fl. / BayBoro Harbor). We invented, developed, donated, installed and maintained the first two barriers - preventing over 100 documented tons of litter from entering Tampa Bay.
We are the proud Originator!
Aquatic Barriers can now be built onsite, very inexpensively in hours, but require much maintenance. Now large organizations are collecting extremely large amounts of funding for the 'Study' of waterborne litter.
Perhaps the existing 240 Aquatic Barriers did not provide enough data?
Maybe that’s why Grants/monies for legitimate sea-worthy projects are drying up.
