It looks like there are tours. Two links are:

All diving is from mini subs. As for "real" diving I remember the National 
Geographic doing some dives with a WASP suit. They recovered the helm and 
some other stuff. The depth is in the 250' range, temps right around 28F and 
has to be done in the early spring due to weather and ice conditions. In the 
summer the wreck site can be open water one day and heavy pack ice the next.
