Ursinus College SCUBA Dive Team Reef Ball Reef
In conjunction with UCDT's pledge to improve the environment by our actions, in 2002, we sponsored the drop of thirty reef balls off of the coast of New Jersey. Each reef ball is three feet tall and three feet wide, and have considerable space between each other. The balls were dropped in a region that is mapped as a fish haven. In any given acre of our plot, there may only be two reef balls. By spacing the reef balls in such a manner, they are extremely productive, supporting thousands of sea bass per ball. As a proof of our actions, we have received a plaque for on land display, as well as an underwater plaque that states that this particular reef belongs to the Ursinus College Dive Team. We have the exact positioning of our reef and plan on potentially diving it in the years to come.
