Annual Summaries of Marine Artificial Reef Activity
The following tables summarize the patch reef building activity on the marine artificial reef sites. Each table displays the reef site, month of deployment, material, and deployment coordinates in latitude and longitude for a specific calendar year. The corner coordinates for each reef site are also available as LORAN C TD's and latitude and longitude coordinates.
