The Large Tetrahedrons ("LT" modules) are 18 feet tall and weigh more than 19 tons. The Small Tetrahedrons ("ST" modules) are 8 feet tall and weigh 2.5 tons.
The modules were deployed in the Old Casino Reef artificial reef site in the Gulf of Mexico, approximately one nautical mile SSE of Casino Beach, Pensacola Beach, Florida. Water depths are approximately 55-60 feet. The modules were to create seven patch reef clusters within the Old Casino Reef Site.
Funding for the reefs is Natural Resources Damages Assessment from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, through an agreement with Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Additional NRDA-funded artificial reef modules will be deployed in the Old Casino Reef Site and other permitted artificial reef sites permitted to Escambia County.
