TISIRI is always busy working towards creating new reefs, spreading marine awareness, and participating in conservation efforts. TISIRI is currently involved in the following:

Summer 2011 North East Florida Artificial Reef Deployments:

Both Duval and Flagler counties will have new reefs created this summer. The Duval project reef site will be roughly 12 mile East of the Micklers Beach area and include roughly 700 tons of concrete material. The Flagler reef deployment will be deployed further south and will consist of 500+ tons of concrete bridge material.

Reef Sites Revealed Project:

TISIRI is busy visiting offshore North East Florida Reef

Sites to collect photographs and video of the reefs’ structure and their inhabitants. We are also verifying GPS coordinates and depths and providing this information in a user friendly format through the TISIRI web page. Visitors simply need to click on the “Jax Reef Map” at the top of any TISIRI page and click on the reef area to “see” the reefs in that vicinity. Learn more here

Large Ship Reef Projects:

Two large ships could become reefs in the near future. These vessels will make massive reefs that will draw the attention of offshore enthusiast from around the world. TISIRI is working diligently to make these ships available for reefing but needs support to make these reefs a reality. TISIRI is looking for corporate sponsors to support projects of this scale. Project sponsors are given the opportunity to have the reef named after the corporation serving as an indefinite form of marketing exposure.
