In August, 1983, the Archeological Services Branch of the National Park Service conducted a reconnaissance-level archeological survey and historic structures assessment at seven U.S. Coast Guard stations--Station Cortez, Hillsboro Inlet Light Station, Station Lake Worth Inlet, Station Ponce de Leon Inlet, Sanibel Island Light, Station St. Petersburg, and Venice Recreational Facility. The purpose of the survey was to determine the cultural resource potential of the installations and identify those properties which require further survey or evaluation. The results of the survey indicated that no further archeological survey need to be conducted at any of the seven installations but further architectural and historical evaluation should be undertaken at Station Lake Worth Inlet and Station St. Petersburg.
