WSVN — There's a new $1.5 million effort underway to remove sunken tires dumped off the Fort Lauderdale coast in the 1970s. Is it money well spent? We take a ride to find out.
It's summertime in South Florida, but the beautiful blue water hides something troubling below the surface.
Commissioner Chip LaMarca: "Whosoever's conception it was to do this back in the 70s was, environmentally, a horrible idea."
