Publisher Florida Sea Grant College Program Download date 30/09/2021 20:13:19 Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/1834/18357 Acknowledgments Without the assistance of many people from local reef programs and agencies actively involved in artificial reef development in Florida, this publication would not be possible. Gratitude is expressed to those persons and organizations, including the local Sea Grant Extension Program offices throughout Florida. Several individuals provided especially invaluable assistance. For example: Jon Dodrill, Tom Maher, and Bill Horn, Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Office of Fisheries Management and Assistance Services; and Jan Johnson, Jacksonville District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; all provided detailed information on permitted artificial reefs around the state. In addition, this Atlas would not be a reality without the expertise of Ms. Maria Luisa Villanueva, Boating Research Center, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, at the University of Miami; the exceptional data entry efforts of Ms. Jennifer Mohammed; and the word processing and correspondence efforts of Dinah Berry. Special thanks also go to Dr. Christine Stephens, Dean for Extension, University of Florida, for funding the Enhancement Grant program. Space does not permit listing all the other individuals who helped produce this publication, but a heartfelt "thank you" goes out to each of them. This edition was made possible by a State Major Program Enhancement Grant from the Dean for Extension, University of Florida, and the Florida Sea Grant College Program. Note: Neither the author nor the Florida Sea Grant College Program can accept responsibility for the complete accuracy of the data contained herein, nor are the maps in this publication to be used for navigational purposes.
