Dredging goes on at a limestone quarry that is also the location of the Haile 7G paleontological dig site. The dig site is the location of the Florida Museum of Natural History's "Tapir Challenge," which I joined as a volunteer on December 6, 2006. More about the "Tapir Challenge" is at: http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/vertp... from my day there are at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/3... up the space before "6372" -- I can't seem to do it here.)The water shown in this video is part of the Florida aquifer.
