For each barge load of artificial reef materials, the GRANTEE shall inventory all of the artificial reef materials, calculate the tonnage (either using before and after barge draft calculations, trucking receipts, or the known weights of individual concrete structures), and take a representative photograph of the artificial reef material on the barge or other deployment vessel immediately prior to deployment. 12. The GRANTEE agrees to allow the COMMISSION to conduct on-site inspections of the artificial reef materials before, during, and after the deployment. LOADING AND TRANSPORTATION 13. Artificial reef materials will be loaded using a suitable means of conveyance for transportation to a staging area site and loading onto a barge or other suitable vessel for offshore transportation to the designated artificial reef site.
