Recently, Congressman Allen West has announced the designation of $4.6 million to Port Everglades as part of the United States Corps of Engineers 2012 Work Plan for Operations and Maintenance dredging.
In addition, another $600,000 has been designated for a Port Everglades feasibility study.
“I am pleased to announce this project will finally be able to move forward and our hard work has paid off, ” West said. “The Port Everglades dredging project is directly tied to the number of ships that can get in and out of South Florida and has a direct impact on commerce and the entire economy of the region.”
