Total annual cost for marker/buoy replacements for the past twelve-month period were 3 times the cost during the same
timeframe in 2023-24($55,002.00).The increase in costs during the past 12 months is a result of routine maintenance needs
for multiple markers that were replaced after Hurricane Irma. Task Orders totaling $20,009.00 have been issued and are
currently pending installation for the emergency replacement of an additional 2 markers that that were struck and destroyed.
As per recent surveys conducted by Marine Resources an estimated 120 additional signs are in need of replacement.

Monroe County removed 11 derelict vessels during the month of July. A total of 232 vessels were removed in the past
twelve-month period. Twenty-eight (28) of the 232 vessels removed were grant-funded through the FWC Derelict Vessel
Removal Grant Program, and an additional 170 vessels were funded through an FWC government contract utilizing
American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 funding which represents a total cost savings of$1,923,250.00 to the County (or 96%
of total expenditures) in the past twelve-month period. These costs are included in the table above. The high removal costs
during the months of October 2024 and June 2025 were due to the following removals:
• October 2024 - the removal of a 74' homemade vessel constructed out of steel shipping containers ($144,789.00)
and a 66' steel trawler($254,000.00)
• June 2025—There was a huge effort to remove 36 vessels prior to the June 30,2025 deadline for government contract
924024 which greatly increased the removal costs to $492,390.00 for the month of June as compared to the 33
vessels that were removed in September 2024 for $111,434.00. An amendment to extend the FWC government
contract was fully executed on June 4'extending the contract an additional 6 months.
The total number of vessels removed during the past 12 months(232 vessels)was a 33%increase from the number removed
during the same time frame in 2023-24 (174 vessels). Despite removing more vessels and the expensive removals listed
above, the total removal cost during the past 12 months ($1,996,815.00) was still lower when compared to the same time
frame in 2023-24 ($2,211,387.00). In fact, the average removal cost per vessel has decreased by 32%, from $12,709.12 per
vessel in 2023-24 to $8,606.96 per vessel in 2024-25.
