[FONT=Verdana]A construction company plans to finish demolishing the old Fuller Warren Bridge now that a four-year-long federal investigation into debris dumping into the St. Johns River has been closed. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana]Atlanta-based Balfour Beatty Construction Inc. will complete the demolition of the Fuller Warren Bridge in downtown Jacksonville in accordance with the permits recently issued by the government agencies, said Hank Coxe, local counsel for Balfour. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana]The investigation began in early 2002 and Coxe said that government officials told him June 12 that the investigation had ended. While a grand jury was convened, no indictments were handed down. [/FONT]
