Pennsuco, FL: Titan America Limestone Quarry and Marion 7820 Assembly

(Satellite, I think the quarry is the "ponds" in this area)

A Marion 7820 that was disassembled at a coal mine in Somerset County, PA, is now being assembled at a limestone quarry "west of Miami, FL." 

William Oldani posted eleven photos with the comment: "Another Update on the Marion 7820 Erection down in Florida.   Setting the Swing Deck!    Photo Credit Gene Miller, Project Manager."
[A comment includes a video of taking the swing deck off.]

Titian America has had a dragline running on the west side of Florida.

Because of this job description, I think Titan America has bought the CEMEX-FEC quarry.
"We are seeking a Quarry Manager to be based at our Titan Pennsuco facility in Medley, Florida. The combined facility is the largest of its kind in Florida and one of the largest aggregates and cement operations in the US. This position offers exposure to a newly extended 3.6 mile overland conveyor and in-pit semi-mobile crushing system. In addition, the main processing plant was recently modernized and the two dragline mining extraction rate is in excess of 11 million tons per year....Implement the Dragline and Primary Crushing system reliability and efficiency plans (Marion 7820 & Page 732) in coordination with the Maintenance Manager." [lensa] The description implies they already have a couple of draglines on the site, but I could not find them in a satellite image.
