5 Area shipwrecks may get protected status
I saw an interesting article this morning in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel about 5 area shipwrecks that may get protected status under the National Register of Historic Places.
From the article:
The archaeological surveys and documentation will be used to nominate the five wrecks to the National Register of Historic Places, which will give them additional legal protection. Buoys will be placed at each site so dive boats can safely moor without harming the shipwreck.
