A suggestion......
I was on the first Avalon, Catalina Island Clean up. organized by the late Lil Lancaster Lil was the wife of the late Captain Arnie Lancaster who discovered and dove the reef that bears his name ( Now both totally forgotten covered with the dust of time and a the creation of several generations of divers
As I recall it was 1969 or 1970 -49 - almost 50 years ago.
It was like diving into an archeological site
We salvaged bottles, pottery, trinkets of all shapes an d colors dating from 1970 to the very beginning of civilization on Catalina Island
We were there to clean up the harbor and clean up we did !
It was not a social even as todays event; there was no awards no recognition We were diving strictly to clean up all debris bag it and in mid channel toss it over board in 2000 feet of water--
So much history was lost that day
I sincerely hope you can enlist the expertise of local and state historians to review and evaluate evert piece of debris that is salvaged for historical its significance...Don't duplicate the mistakes we did 50 years ago in California during the very first underwater clean up
Good lick with your event
