DEMA Launches Website With Reports On Current Diving Conditions In The Gulf States

By Matt J. Weiss, July 13, 2010 @ 04:17 PM (EST)

Editor's Note- I was just alerted to a new website that DEMA has created to help keep operators and divers current on the diving conditions surrounding the Gulf. Here is some information from DEMA about their new site. - Matt 

DEMA has established a new website, www.GulfStateDiving.com, for operators and consumers to report on current diving conditions in the Gulf States of Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas. 

DEMA continues to provide updates to the travel community and others regarding the impact of the oil to diving and the perceptions being created in the media regarding the oil spill.  DEMA has reached out through radio, television and Internet, including through Peter Greenberg's Worldwide Radio Show.  Including the Internet outreach, www.GulfStateDiving.com has been publicized in more than 250 locations worldwide, generating more than 135 million media impressions to date. 

Operators along the Gulf Coast should post their diving conditions daily on www.GulfStateDiving.com so that divers from around the US and the world can see conditions in the areas they are considering for local diving or dive travel.  

For more information on the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill including claims information, go to www.dema.org.  To track the oil spill, including fishery closures, click here.
