TAMPA — Seafarer Exploration Corp. reports that the Florida Department of Environmental Protection has granted it a two-year extension to the environmental permit for a shipwreck site off Juno Beach. Those permits will now expire Dec. 9, 2015.
The company says it is having success from its exploration of the Juno Beach project and has already located artifacts from it with information about the colonial-era shipwreck.
“We are also in the process of completing an archaeological research design to be submitted to the Florida Bureau of Archaeological Research in order to eventually receive our third permit,” Kyle Kennedy, Seafarer CEO, says in a press release. “The history and copious amount of recorded data our archaeologist have in their possession on this third site is very enlightening. Especially when combined with some of the historic artifacts already found and believed to be in the possession of the state of Florida, lends credence to the potential historic and archaeological significance of this site.”
In addition, Kennedy says Seafarer Exploration is researching a number of potential Florida shipwreck sites.
