I'm looking to take a group of open water students to Lake Denton in Avon Park next week for some checkout dives. Does anyone know if, with COVID-19, they are open to divers? If so, what (if any) new restrictions are in place? Thanks!

Officers Stephens, Karr and Adams responded to a report of suspicious activity on Lake Denton in Avon Park. The reporting party advised several subjects were trying to sink a Cessna plane fuselage and a twenty-foot cargo shipping container in the lake. FWC units responded and contacted approximately twelve subjects, all with scuba diving gear and equipment. The FWC Dive team responded the following morning to document the location and condition of both items. After the team confirmed the items were in the lake and documented the exact GPS coordinates, the case was turned over to DEP Special Agent Jarosh. Once SA Jarosh completes the investigation, charges will be filed against the appropriate persons.
