GRANT WORK PLAN
Project Title: Monroe County Canal Management Master Plan
Project Location: Monroe County
Florida Keys Watershed /HUC= 03090203.
Project Background:
The work to be accomplished under this Agreement is for development of a Phase I Canal Management Master Plan
(CMMP).
This work under this Agreement includes identification of the highest - priority canals for potential implementation of
restoration options and development of an initial short-list of restoration projects. For each site on the short-list of
canal restoration projects implementation options will be developed, a detailed scope of work and budget will be
prepared, and potential funding sources identified. The final deliverable will be an Initial Canal Management
Master Plan document.
Justification Statement: This project is needed to develop cost - effective and feasible strategies to improve water
quality in artificial canals in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary ( FKNMS). Many of these canals do not
meet the State's minimum water quality criteria and are a potential source of nutrients and other contaminants to
near shore waters designated as Outstanding Florida Waters and subject to special protection under the Florida
Statutes. This project is a priority of the FKNMS Water Quality Protection Program (WQPP) Steering Committee
which recently passed a motion to develop a plan to prioritize canal restoration projects and to identify funding
sources for these projects. The tourism economy of the Keys depends largely on clean water and a healthy
environment and this project is fully supported by the WQPP Steering Committee and local governments in Monroe
County. The successful implementation of this project is also consistent with the goals of the Florida Keys
Reasonable Assurance Document that was recently adopted by the Department in order to satisfy the requirements
of the Impaired Waters Rule, Cha ter 62 -303 of the Florida Administrative Code.
Project Description:
Task 1: COLLATE AVAILABLE INFORMATION AND SUMMARIZE PLAN OBJECTIVES
Task 1.1: Reports and publications relevant to canal management and restoration will be obtained from local,
state and federal agencies, searches of online databases, and other sources. These reports will be disseminated to the
appropriate members of the subcontractor's (AMEC) project team for review, based on the subject material and
team members' areas of expertise.
Deliverable: A list of reports and publications that were reviewed. The list of reports and publications shall include
a review of the current state of the science related to water quality restoration within impaired manmade canal
systems. Emphasis shall be placed on coastal Florida systems where possible. The report shall identify best
management practices that have been used successfully elsewhere to improve water quality in artificial canals and
basins.
Budget: $3,000 Contractual Services
Performance Measure: The Department's Grant Manager will review the deliverables and determine if they
are acceptable using the following criteria:
• The list of reports and publications will be reviewed to ensure the following criteria has been met:
o Include a review of the current state of the science related to water quality restoration within
impaired manmade canal systems. Must reflect an emphasis on coastal Florida systems where
possible.
o Must identify best management practices that have been used successfully elsewhere to improve
water quality in artificial canals and basins.
DEP Agreement S0607, Attachment A, Page 1 of 6
Financial Consequences: Failure to meet the above performance measure will result in rejection of the request for
reimbursement.
Completion Date: May 1, 2012
Task 1.2: Project Geodatabase that was originally developed by AMEC in 2003, and is to be updated, will be
reviewed for accuracy and completeness.
Deliverable: A report describing any identified data deficiencies in the updated electronic GIS database originally
developed by AMEC (formerly MACTEC) during the 2003 Monroe County Residential Canal Inventory and
Assessment (MACTEC Project No. 40700 -1 -2681, June 2003).
Budget: $1,064 Contractual Services
Performance Measure: The Department's Grant Manager will review the deliverables and determine if they
are acceptable using the following criteria:
• The report will be reviewed to ensure the following criteria has been met:
o Describes in detail any identified data deficiencies in the updated electronic GIS database
originally developed by AMEC (formerly MACTEC) during the 2003 Monroe County Residential
Canal Inventory and Assessment (MACTEC Project No. 40700 -1 -2681, June 2003).
Financial Consequences: Failure to meet the above performance measure will result in rejection of the request for
reimbursement.
Completion Date: May 1, 2012
Task 1.3: Objectives Statement will be developed for the management plan. An example of the form the
objectives statement may take (borrowed from the existing wastewater master plan), is: The objective of the CMMP
is to provide an ecologically sound and economically feasible implementation strategy for improving and managing
the environmental quality of canal systems in the Florida Keys. The plan will provide flexible and cost - effective
solutions that improve canal management practices throughout the Keys and satisfy the existing and future needs of
the community. It must address affordability and equity issues, reflect key stakeholder concerns, and satisfy
environmental and regulatory criteria and guidelines.
Deliverable: A report of the process used to develop the initial Objectives Statement for the canal management
plan shall include an account of the process used to prepare the objectives statement.
Budget: $2,246.60
Performance Measure: The Department's Grant Manager will review the deliverables and determine if they
are acceptable using the following criteria:
The report will be reviewed to ensure the following criteria has been met:
• Includes a descriptive summary of the process used to develop the initial Objectives Statement for
the canal management plan
• Includes an account of the process used to prepare the objectives statement.
Financial Consequences: Failure to meet the above performance measure will result in rejection of the request for
reimbursement.
Completion Date: May 1, 2012
Task 2: IDENTIFY AND RANK PRIORITY MANAGEMENT ISSUES FOR RESIDENTIAL CANALS
An initial prioritized list of the canal management and restoration issues that will be addressed in the CMMP will be
developed. This will build upon the work that has already been done identifying a `Hot Spot' list of water quality
problem areas. Based on initial reviews of the Monroe County Comprehensive Plan, the Florida Keys Reasonable
Assurance Documents (FKRADs), Monroe County Sanitary Wastewater Master Plan, Monroe County Stormwater
Management Master Plan, and Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary Revised Management Plan, and other
sources, some possibilities include:
• Water quality — nutrient loading, nutrient enrichment and eutrophication
Water quality — dissolved oxygen/hypoxia
• Water quality — organic matter (e.g., weed w rack)
DEP Agreement S0607, Attachment A, Page 2 of 6
• Water quality — human pathogen levels
• Water quality — compliance with regulatory requirements (e.g., WQ criteria; WBID impairments;
TMDL/Reasonable Assurance process; NNC when adopted)
• Sediment quality — anoxia; sulphides; sediment contaminants (TEL /PEL exceedances)
• Habitat quality — benthic community; intertidal community; shoreline stability and vegetation
• Physical characteristics — maximum depth; bathymetry; geometry; orientation
• Physical characteristics — circulation and flushing
• Physical characteristics — effects on local hydrology
• Public involvement in the canal management process
Because of the short timeline associated with this phase of the project (which must be completed by June 30, 2012),
it is anticipated that this issues list will be a preliminary one. The objective of this task will be to provide an initial
list of the highest - priority canal management and restoration issues, which will be sufficient to guide work on Tasks
3, 4 and 5 (below). It is anticipated that a more comprehensive priorities list, appropriate for inclusion in a Keys -
wide master plan, will be developed in a future phase of the project, if funding is available to support that work
effort. In order to meet the June 30, 2012, deadline for completion of Tasks 4 and 5, we assume that work on Task 2
will be conducted expeditiously, in a brief series of Subcommittee meetings, and completed in April 2012.
Deliverable: A report describing the decision making process used to develop the ranked list of priority issues. The
report shall include a ranked list of priority management issues that will guide the work in Tasks 3, 4 and 5 (below).
Budget: $14,143.00
Performance Measure: The Department's Grant Manager will review the deliverables and determine if they
are acceptable using the following criteria:
The report will be reviewed to ensure the following criteria has been met:
• Includes a detailed description of the decision making process used to develop the ranked list of
priority issues.
• Includes a ranked list of priority management issues that will guide the work in Tasks 3, 4 and 5
Financial Consequences: Failure to meet the above performance measure will result in rejection of the request for
reimbursement.
Completion Date: May 1, 2012
Task 3: ESTABLISH CONSENSUS -BASED MANAGEMENT GOALS FOR EACH PRIORITY ISSUE
Ideally, the goals should be quantitative, living- resource based (when possible), readily measurable, and challenging
but achievable. As with Task 2, because of the short timeline associated with Phase 1, we anticipate that this list of
management goals will be a preliminary one. The objective of this task will be to provide initial goal statements for
the highest - priority canal management and restoration issues identified in Task 2, sufficient to guide work on Tasks
4 and 5 (below). More comprehensive goal statements, appropriate for inclusion in a Keys -wide master plan, will be
developed in a future phase of the project, if funding becomes available. In order to meet the June 30, 2012,
deadline for completion of Tasks 4 and 5, we assume that work on Task 3 will be conducted expeditiously and
completed by mid -May, 2012.
Deliverable: A report detailing the process used to develop the management goals for each priority issue. The
memorandum shall include the specific goal(s) established for each of the management issues.
Budget: $3,632.60 Contractual Services
Performance Measure: The Department's Grant Manager will review the deliverables and determine if they
are acceptable using the following criteria:
The report will be reviewed to ensure the following criteria has been met:
• Includes a detailed description of the process used to develop the management goals for each
priority issue.
• Includes specific goal(s) established for each of the management issues.
DEP Agreement S0607, Attachment A, Page 3 of 6
Financial Consequences: Failure to meet the above performance measure will result in rejection of the request for
reimbursement.
Completion Date: May 10, 2012
Task 4: IDENTIFY THE HIGHEST - PRIORITY CANALS FOR POTENTIAL IMPLEMENTATION OF
RESTORATION OPTIONS
Based on the priority issues identified in Task 2, the Grantee will identify a list of canals that will receive detailed
consideration for potential implementation of restoration options. For each of the major restoration options
identified in the project geodatabase, one or more canals or canal systems will be identified for more detailed
considerations. The list of potential locations will be evaluated for selection of the specific sites and projects for
which funding and implementation options will be developed in Task 5.
Deliverable: A report detailing the description of the process used to develop the list of potential locations for
implementation of restoration options. A list of the locations of the highest ranked priority canals requiring
restoration will also be submitted.
Budget: $25,591.20
Performance Measure: The Department's Grant Manager will review the deliverables and determine if they
are acceptable using the following criteria:
The report will be reviewed to ensure the following criteria has been met:
• Includes a detailed description of the process used to develop the list of potential locations for
implementation of restoration options.
• Includes a list of the locations of the highest ranked priority canals requiring restoration.
Financial Consequences: Failure to meet the above performance measure will result in rejection of the request for
reimbursement.
Completion Date: May 24, 2012
Task 5: DEVELOP THE INITIAL SHORT -LIST OF RESTORATION PROJECTS
This is the key task of this initial phase of the project, and is intended to provide a short-list of project sites and
restoration activities for which implementation funds will be sought during the next one to two years. For each
project site, the team will identify implementation options and potential funding sources (e.g., grants through the
319[h], TMDL Water Quality Restoration, Homeowner Associations, or other appropriate funding programs). In
order to be eligible and competitive for grant funding, a detailed scope of work and budget will need to be developed
for each potential project. Anticipated water quality improvements from each project will be estimated for the
purposes of inclusion with any grant application. Other grant application requirements vary among funding
programs, but the requirements of Florida's TMDL Water Quality Restoration program can be used for illustrative
purposes: "Applicants are eligible for the TMDL Water Quality Restoration Grant for the following types of
projects:
• The project reduces storm water pollutant loadings from urban areas that discharge to water
bodies on the state's verified list of impaired waters.
• The project is at least at the 60% design phase.
• The project is permitted or the permit has been scheduled for approval at the next meeting of the
water management district governing board or Department.
The project includes storm event monitoring to determine the actual load reduction.
• The construction will be completed within three years of appropriation of the funds by the
Legislature in order to ensure fund remain available.
• The applicant provides a minimum of 50% of the total project cost in matching funds, of which at
least 25% are provided by the local government.
• The grant funds are used for construction of best management practices, monitoring to determine
pollutant load reductions, or public education activities specifically associated with the project
and may only occur after the date of contract. Funds spent in advance of contract may be used for
match, such as design, land acquisition, and other costs incurred by the applicant. " ( Source:

DEP Agreement S0607, Attachment A, Page 4 of 6
Other funding programs have different eligibility requirements. For example, the requirement that the project be at
the 60% design phase is not a requirement of the States' 319[h] grant program
Deliverable: A report that includes the following:

2. Question: Can I fax the form to you?
Answer: Yes, you can fax the Certification form, the fax number is 850/245 -2411.
3. Question: How can I submit the form if our audit is not completed by the due date of
this letter?
Answer: You should be able to complete the form from the information in your
accounting system. This is just to let our Office of the Inspector General know which
entities they should be getting an audit from. If you are under the threshold you do not
have to submit a copy of your audit, only the Certification form.

fine.

completed and we will place the Email with your letter in our file so that you don't get a
2 °d notice.
