I have watched beach renourishment in Martian (Martin) County for decades, been surfing there since the 60's. In offshore Hobe Sound in the area where they sucked up sand to pump onto the beach a grey material unlike beach sand was mixed in? It turned out it was Titanium. As you know that is a structural metal, but not in the pureness to extract otherwise they surely would have, the point is,,,,it makes a mess on the beach and when disturbed it coats everything living thing, creature that loves salt water. We are not known for "reef's in Martian county", we have rubble reef's, look on the deep sea fishing spots charts, its mostly all construction rubble. Why won't natural reefs grow here? Why is the water so ugly vs Jupiter to the south and Ft Pierce water to the north? Because we have a toilet that flushes into the "St. Lucie River and the Super Nova of Marine Biodiversity called "the Indian River" which starts in Stuart and stretches up to Mosquito inlet. The priorities of our law makers are controlled by the movers and shakers of the town's. Surfers are probably on the bottom of the list. The only advocate I ever found was Surfriders club....and honestly its probably ineffective in changing a broken system. If you find a worthy platform to prioritize "your local concerns of the surfing community", that is someone that can direct the concerns of Satellite Beach surfers into a complaint there are others in the state of Florida that share your concerns, some from Martian County, like me. I love the beaches and the town of Satellite Beach Florida. I would be glad to take the time to voice, letter writing campaign, to further your voice.
