I do not want to change the find command because I am using multiple fields from that output. In fact I need to capture the 9th ($9) field and manipulate the output so that I only capture the department folder.
ex: the output is like:
-rwx------+ 1 admin staff 71680 Jun 12 2010 /Volumes/Sys_Data/Server One/Department/.../.../.../.../...
From this output I capture the $5 field for size counting and the $3 field for user tracking. Now I want to capture the $9 field with the path and only capture the Department field. So I can keep track of the departments as well.

is there any idea why this doesn't work?
The syntax is wrong for awk. Post the error you get. Alternatively can you try the below sed if the output from the find command is as you posted in post# 3..

shtool-path - GNU shtool command dealing with shell path variables
SYNOPSIS
shtool path [-s|--suppress] [-r|--reverse] [-d|--dirname] [-b|--basename] [-m|--magic] [-p|--path path] str [str ...]
DESCRIPTION
This command deals with shell $PATH variables. It can find a program through one or more filenames given by one or more str arguments. It
prints the absolute filesystem path to the program displayed on "stdout" plus an exit code of 0 if it was really found.
OPTIONS
The following command line options are available.
-s, --suppress
Supress output. Useful to only test whether a program exists with the help of the return code.
-r, --reverse
Transform a forward path to a subdirectory into a reverse path.
-d, --dirname
Output the directory name of str.
-b, --basename
Output the base name of str.
-m, --magic
Enable advanced magic search for ""perl"" and ""cpp"".
-p, --path path
Search in path. Default is to search in $PATH.
EXAMPLE
# shell script
awk=`shtool path -p "${PATH}:." gawk nawk awk`
perl=`shtool path -m perl`
cpp=`shtool path -m cpp`
revpath=`shtool path -r path/to/subdir`
HISTORY
The GNU shtool path command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 1998 for Apache. It was later taken
over into GNU shtool.
