Underwater Reef to Produce Real Results


This week marked the official dedication of San Clemente’s artificial reef.

The reef, which is composed of fifty modules (40 x 40 meters each) stretches from the San Clemente Pier to San Mateo Point and is located a little over one half mile off the coast. The project is funded by Southern California Edison in an attempt to offset the affect San Onofre’s Nuclear Generating Station has had on the kelp habitats in the ocean.

After calculating construction, research and testing costs, over $40 million was required to complete the reef project, which is hoped to promote diverse population. Southern California Edison has high hopes that the reef will produce 50 million fish annually.
