    I am not sure you can even dive there. If you can the hours are quite limited. There are a couple of threads on this. Here is one

    Hi jay, people used to dive the quarry, but I'm not sure what the regulations are now, a few years ago you could only dive on Thursday mornings. I live close to the quarry, so when I get the chance, I'll drop in to ask questions of the park people.

    Thanks everyone for your responses. My buddy called and you can dive there but only from like 10am till 1pm on week days, so not very convenient.

    Well perhaps there is hope then because 2 years ago it was from 10-12 on Fridays only. So, perhaps they are opening it up slowly. I have no idea how bad it is but I grew up there so I would be interested in seeing what is there some day. Perhaps once I retire I will free up a weekday to diver there.
