Meli,
 
Government makes all sorts of bad decisions. The Naval Training Center in  
San Diego (yes, it has historical archaeology on the grounds) sat directly 
on  the edge of San Diego Bay and a mile from the Pacific Ocean. The Navy 
shut it  down ten years ago during the BRAC and all their training focused on 
the Great  Lakes, which freezes during the Winter.

I got a chuckle out of reading that a center for submerged  resources is 
moving to Colorado. A land-locked state with no major bodies of  water? Of 
course!
This sounds like so many jokes about stupid  decisions by big government, 
that it's hard to believe there may be perfectly  logical and reasonable 
reasons to base it there.
Thanks for the laugh of  the day.

NPS Submerged Resource Center Moves
The NPS Submerged  Resource Center has moved. The new address is

The center was formed in 1980 to inventory and evaluate submerged  resources

internationally, with underwater heritage resource issues.  It is staffed by
underwater archeologists and photographers to provide  expertise as needed
by managers of national parks with submerged lands. The  Acting Chief is
