It simply is not allowed in Escambia County.

One of the RFRA's base missions though is to create artificial habitat inshore (Pensacola Bay).

We have the deepest natural bay in the state and we are the only one that does not allow reefs in the bay.

We've offered to work on solutions such as mooring buoys that would allow transient vessels a place to tie up while in town for events such as Blue Angles, sail boat races and what not that would be anchored with 5,000-pound concrete structures.

No dice.
