Over the past several years, as resources within the County have been downsized to address the decreasing revenue and budget issues, the Marine Resources department was especially hit hard. As you can imagine, with the Keys being a marine sanctuary and with the growing number of issues surrounding water quality and the need to assure our waters are safe and pristine, Rich's duties have continued to grow. Yet, even with the limited resources, he is dedicated and his commitment may go unnoticed. He is shouldered with implementing derelict vessel removal, maintenance of channel markers, management and operation oversight for the upper keys pump out boat (which includes not only program implementation — but maintenance of boats and their safe operations), as well as writing and implementing grants. He also manages all of the county's boater improvement funds and the Marine Advisory Board. Until recently, he even acted as the secretary of the advisory board and actually transcribed minutes. And, he strives to assure great contract management for an unbelievable amount of marine contractors associated with these programs. All of these duties in the past were distributed among 4 employees, where now there are just 2. Yet, everyday, Rich comes to work with a smile on his face. He is passionate about doing the best job he can for providing these programs and service to better the quality of life for the County.
