A series of artificial reefs will be constructed of secondary use materials that are stable and
durable, lasting at least 30 years. Reef construction materials were donated to Bay County and
will be used to create essential fish habitat benefiting fishing, diving, and other tourism
businesses. Reefs will be located in state waters approximately 3nm miles off the MB Miller
County Pier and off Panama City Beach’s Russell-Fields Pier. Near-shore reef locations also
provide fuel and time savings.

Restoration of recreational fishing through artificial reef strategies provides new infrastructure
proven through economic studies to benefit businesses and commerce associated with tourism.
For every 1$ invested in reef construction, Bay County receives a value of $131.

Promotion of the consumption of seafood harvested from the Gulf Coast Region
The sea floor in NW Florida consists of sand and shell bottom occasionally interrupted by
low-relief limestone ridges. Artificial reef materials create habitat building blocks providing high
relief hard structure utilized by a variety of marine invertebrates and important reef fish species.
Fishing and diving activities on the Gulf Coast are family oriented. Multi-generation vacation
experiences are enhanced by supporting these types of shared activities. Increasing the
number of artificial reefs improves the opportunity to bring home a day’s catch.
Artificial reef construction activities were halted during the Gulf Oil Spill, suspending much of
the normal business associated with tourism, fishing, diving, and seafood industry. New reef
projects were not seen as viable investments during this environmental and economic disaster.
