The deadline to request removal of derelict boats and other waterway-debris caused by October’s Hurricane Milton is approaching early next month.
Milton caused widespread flooding and some $34 billion in damages after making landfall near Siesta Key.
The Florida Division of Emergency Management is wrapping up the waterway- debris clean-up. March 7 is the deadline for those impacted in Sarasota, Charlotte, Glades and Lee counties to notify the state.
