Spain Reef Ball Projects

• Best Innovative Project 2001: Armas Y Soria, Proyectos Y Obras (ASPO), Oviedo, Spain, North Atlantic Sea This project built smaller Lo-Pro Reef Balls widely spaced in 300 feet deep water at a specific geological point where an upwelling occurred.  The design was specifically geared to a bottleneck in the life cycle of the Hake fish.  Larger reefs would attract Hake predators and closer reefs would encourage them to leave the bottom dwelling cycle too soon for higher survival rates.  The innovation was the combination of the field of geology and marine biology to unlock a bottleneck in a species that is considered commercially important.
