 "description": "This web service represents the locations of proposed artificial reef expansion and new sites by the State of New York, to be completed in 2022, and was published in support of the Mid-Atlantic Ocean Data Portal. \n<br><\/br>\nIn his 2020 State of the State address, Governor Cuomo committed to doubling New York's existing reef acreage by expanding seven of 12 existing sites and creating four new artificial reefs in Long Island Sound and the Atlantic Ocean. This expansion will be complete by 2022, resulting in a stronger and more diverse marine ecosystem.\n<br><\/br>\nThe New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) manages the state's current 12 artificial reefs, which include two reefs in Long Island Sound, two in the Great South Bay, and eight in the Atlantic Ocean. The Hempstead Reef, a 744-acre reef site located 3.3 nautical miles south of Jones Beach State Park in the Atlantic Ocean, with depths ranging from 50-72 feet, is the most recent recipient of recycled materials. The continued expansion of New York's artificial reefs supports Governor Cuomo's efforts to bolster Long Island's tourism, fishing, and diving industries. \n<br><\/br>\nThe GIS data were supplied by Tom Dameron of Surfside Foods LLC to the MARCO Portal.\n",
