History
SOBAC was an environmental organization with a focus on raising concern about problems in the marine systems. Before it was dissolved in 2006, it was the largest desalination plant on the Tampa Bay Estuary. After the dissolvement of the organization majority of the remaining amount of funds were used to create the endowment at Florida Tech.
