A Management Plan for Known and Potential United States Navy Shipwrecks in South Carolina - Report (Legacy 98-1725)

Author(s): Joseph Beatty; Lynn Harris; Carleton Naylor; Mark Ragan

Editor(s): Christopher Amer; James Spirek

Year: 2004

Summary

This report builds on a multi-year effort to 1) compile historic and cultural data of U.S. Navy vessels lost in South Carolina waters to document the losses and subsequent wreck history of each vessel, which was used to update the Naval Historical Center's database of shipwrecks, and 2) conduct remote sensing operations on a limited number of shipwreck sites and areas of naval activities, primarily from the Civil War. A detailed inventory was produced, and the document includes a brief history of U.S. Navy presence in South Carolina and recommendations for the management of these resources.
