I saw a story on 9and10 news about the Thunder Bay Shipwreck Preserve and possibly extending it's borders. I did not catch the whole story, but they did say that extending the borders would "protect" more shipwrecks. Also, (if I heard correctly) they said that extending the borders had been proposed previously and failed.
My first question is: Why wouldn't anyone want to extend the borders of the preserve?
My second question is: Aren't all of the shipwrecks in the state protected by law, reguardless of wheather they are in a preserve or not? If so, I don't see how extending the preserves' borders would "protect" more wrecks.
Forgive my ignorance on the subject, but I'm just trying to get the whole picture.
