• Catalina Island Marine Institute Reef Balls  In Sept. of 1999, Cindy Dawson from the Catalina Island Marine Institute in California reported 1/2 of the planned 30 Reef Balls were installed in the bay. The remaining Reef Balls were put down in October. Cindy was delighted with the results, reporting eels, lobsters, octopus, fish and algae growth within the first month.  This project was funded by a mold grant from the Reef Ball Foundation.
