Hurricane Irma Hazardous Boat Waste Recovery
After Hurricane Irma in 2017 IDC was hired by CBI to assist in the recovery of damaged vessels from Miami all the way north to Brevard County. IDC dive teams worked nonstop from October 2017-January 2018 using lift bags to bring the vessels up high enough to drain the fuel tanks and remove other hazardous materials. In many instances IDC dive teams recovered full size vessels and brought them to a dock to be removed by a USCG contracted crane service and taken to landfill.

Osborne Tire Recovery
IDC started the Osborne tire recovery project in 2015 with funding from the FDEP. We have worked on the project non-stop from May 2015-June 2019, in that time period we have removed 250,468 tires from the ocean floor in 70’ of water and transported them to shipping containers in Port Everglades to be taken to a recycling facility in central Florida.
