The services will include putting together all the necessary, required Atlantic Boulevard Road Relocation Page 1 prerequisite information as outlined in the LWCF Manual — Chapter 8 — Section E — Conversion of Use. It is anticipated that this proposed use will be classified as a small conversion. Small conversions are composed of small portions of Section 6(f) protected areas that amount to no more than ten percent (10 %) of the 6(f) protected area or five (5) acres, whichever is less. Since it is anticipated that minor or no environmental impacts would occur on resources being removed from Section 6(f) protection, on the remaining Section 6(f) area, and on the contiguous new replacement parkland by placing it under Section 6(f) protection per the environmental screening form, the entire conversion proposal is categorically excluded from further environmental review under NEPA as per Chapter 4 of the LWCF Manual Chapter. It also helps to facilitate approval if the proposed conversion is not controversial and the replacement property is contiguous to the original Section 6(f) area. Because small conversion proposals are less complex, the Section 6(f) Conversion of Use proposal will include: • Transmittal letter describing the entire small conversion proposal • Standard Form 424 • Proposal Description and Environmental Screening Form (PD /ESF) with the portion for conversions completed indicating that a categorical exclusion is justified • LWCF project amendment form • Description and Notification Form (DNF) • Revised 6(f) boundary map indicating the deletion of the small converted area and the addition of the replacement property This information will be provided to the FDEP Land and Recreation Grants Section for review and recommendations. The National Park Service (NPS) will make the final decision to allow or disapprove the conversion process at Higgs Beach. The following supplemental services will also be required of the following sub - consultants to support the aforementioned studies and forms: • KB Environmental — will provide an Air and Noise study • Panamerican Consultants — with provide an Historic and Archaeological study • Geoview — will expand their GPR study to support the Historical and Archaeological study. As part of the original contract, Geoview proposed a ground penetrating radar (GPR) study limited to the suspected burial sites, this Additional Services will only cover the incremental scope and cost to expand the study to the exposed grass areas through the site.
