The whole reason the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act was passed was so the Government COULD give lighthouses to non-profits. Before they couldn't (not sure why, but hey it's the Federal Government). On our applications for the 4 other lighthouses I reminded them of that (not to mention some may NOT even know). It also touch on the few lighthouses transfers that went bad and pointed out with hundreds of lighthouses this was bound to happen. Plus we haven't been given to the opportunity to work on a reef lighthouse. We ask to work on Fowey Rocks keepers house and were total in the short run no and in the long run maybe, however, that person is gone and Biscayne National Park did not return voice mails or emails last year. They don't have the staff and have no money for the lighthouse. The only thing that was done was paid for by the Florida Keys Reef Lights Foundation and a grant we put in from the Florida Lighthouse Association. One tension rod was replaced on the bottom and anodes put on, unfortunately the anodes are not gone and the Park hasn't even tried to replace them.
