Isn't that B-24 "protected" under some law Bush signed in? Essentially never allowing the aircraft to be salvaged?

Well actually Tom it would be a difficult recovery because the land it is on is under the jurisdiction of Fish & Wildlife, no motorized vehicles allowed so as not to destroy the natural beauty. If permission is ever granted for a recovery, every thing would have to accomplished by hand, but portable generators are allowed and the plane is about 100 yards from the shoreline.
