Item R2M C ounty of f Monroe ELj » °o E � BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS /�� Mayor David Rice, District 4 Th e Florida Keys Mayor Pro Tem Sylvia J. Murphy, District 5 Danny L. Kolhage, District 1 George Neugent, District 2 Heather Carruthers, District 3 County Commission Meeting January 17, 2018 Agenda Item Number: R.2 Agenda Item Summary #3744 BULK ITEM: Yes DEPARTMENT: Sustainability TIME APPROXIMATE: STAFF CONTACT: Rhonda Haag (305) 453 -8774 N/A AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval to enter into a contract with Adventure Environmental Inc. for a demonstration project for canal skimming and hauling services for the Key Largo area, and potentially for other areas of unincorporated Monroe County, not to exceed $147,168 funded by DEP Stewardship Grant LP44073. ITEM BACKGROUND: This item seeks approval to enter into a contract for canal skimming services, beginning with Key Largo as the demonstration area. Other areas of unincorporated Monroe County may be added at any time at the option of the County. These services do not include storm debris or canal bottom debris removal. They include only floating debris such as sea grass, sea weed and other minor floating debris. DEP has agreed to fund this project through the Stewardship Grant LP44073. The RFP was issued August 25, 2017. Proposals were received and opened on October 19, 2017. Two proposals were received: Earth Balance Inc. and Adventure Environmental. The selection committee met in a publicly noticed meeting on November 20, 2017 to review and rank proposals. The committee ranked the proposals and recommended seeking approval to negotiate in rank order with 1) Adventure Environmental Inc. and then 2) Earth Balance Inc. Staff successfully negotiated contract terms and conditions with the top ranked firm. This is a proven methodology for other communities in South Florida. This program could offer a potentially more economical alternative to weed gate air curtain systems, potentially needed in 179 canals. Concerns with air curtains include: • Long term land use easements required from residents • Placement of compressors, wind vane, and control panel (10' x 10' area) in resident's lot • Long term Operations & Maintenance costs (estimated $797 /year /lot) • Electricity consumption (runs 24 hr. / 7 days a week during unfavorable wind conditions) • Repairs (boats hitting diffusers) • Maintenance (quarterly cleaning of diffusers and compressors) • Replacement of equipment (10 year life span) • Some homeowners have indicated dissatisfaction with the placement of the equipment and O &M cost. The Canal Skimming Program will include: • Weekly waterway cleaning to remove litter and large objects, floating seaweed or seagrass, growing vegetation that impedes navigation • Hotline established for residents to report floating seaweed, debris or trash in their canal. • Trash and debris to be disposed at nearest landfill or reuse facility or taken out to sea • No long term easements from residents Note If the program is successful, an MSBU is anticipated to be required in the future for canals that receive the service. PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: 07/19/2017: Discussion and direction of a potential demonstration program for canal floating debris removal and hauling. 08/16/2017: Approval to advertise a Request for Proposals for a demonstration project for canal floating debris removal and hauling for the Key Largo area. 12/13/17: Approval to enter into negotiations with the top ranked firm for canal skimming services.

Project coordinates are latitude 25.070352 and longitude - 80.462159. The Canal #48, #59, #79, and 480 Projects are located within the unincorporated area of Key Largo, Monroe County, Florida. (See attached location maps.) PROJECT BACKGROUND: In 2013. Monroe County (Grantee) completed a comprehensive Canal Management Master Plan (CMMP) in order to provide a framework to identify, prioritize and correct water L) quality impairments within the entire Florida Keys canal network. This plan identified 131 canals classified as having Poor water quality. Canals receiving a Poor classification were scored and ranked using specific U canal attributes to provide a list of high priority canals which were suitable for consideration of various public works restoration projects. Canal 475 in Key Largo was identified as a Poor canal that is too deep, s lacks oxygen, and is in need of a backfilling restoration. Canals #48,459, #79, and #80 were also identified E as Poor, and candidates for augmented aeration, as described below. In 2015, the Grantee completed an EPA - sponsored alternative technology evaluation to address accumulated muck in canal bottoms which depletes dissolved oxygen levels in the canals. Removal of the Ca muck and addition of oxygen will help to restore the canal waters. The traditional methods of reducing the amount of accumulated muck require the removal of muck by machine and are expensive and disruptive to the use of the canal. The Grantee wants to test alternative methods that, if successful, may be less expensive V for the muck removal process_ The projects are designed to evaluate the cost, and effectiveness, of utilizing QL an augmented aeration technology which introduces oxygen and potentially, microbiological organisms, to stimulate bacteria and other organisms to degrade the accumulated muck. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Grantee has implemented six canal restoration demonstration projects prior to this project. The new seventh and eighth demonstration projects at Canal 475 and Canals #48, 959, #79, and 480 around Key Largo are the next canal restoration projects to be conducted. The restoration of Canal 975 in Rock Harbor involves backfilling, to raise the canal bottom, to 6 feet below the Mean Sea Level, which is the optimum depth to allow for tidal flow in and out of the canal. The engineering design, access coordination, and permitting services for these demonstration projects are underway, and construction is anticipated to begin in the spring of 2017. This project includes augmented aeration work at canals 448, #59, #79, and #80. These improvements are anticipated to restore the impaired waters of the canal, and bring the dissolved oxygen levels up to meet Rule 62 -302, Florida Administrative Code, Class 3 marine water quality standards.

Scope of Work The Contractor shall be responsible for removal of floating vegetation such as seaweed or seagrass and floating debris from each canal, whether by removing it to open water through a permit, or by land disposal. If removed for land disposal, the debris may be taken to one of the County's transfer stations or to a reuse facility. Transfer to a landfill is allowed only as a last resort, and the Contractor shall document that other options have been first attempted. To start, the CONTRACTOR will implement the canal skimming demonstration program to remove floating vegetation and debris from 86 canals in Key Largo. The program will include canal cleaning where floating vegetation was noted, paying special attention to known hot spots. A hotline number will immediately be established by the Contractor whereby residents can call to report floating seaweed, debris or trash in their canal. The vendor shall be responsible for all outreach to homeowners and shall manage the hotline. The vendor shall remove all floating vegetation and debris from each canal, it is not anticipated that all canals will require skimming, and that dependent on season and other factors, skimming activities may be focused in certain areas. The vendor shall be responsible for any damage caused to the properties on the canals 2. Project Location The project is located in unincorporated Monroe County. Key Largo is selected for the demonstration program for months 1 -6. The service shall include all canals from Mile Marker 106 southward to the Tavernier Creek bridge, and shall include canals oceanside and bayside. A total of 86 canals exist in this range. At any time during the contract, the COUNTY may elect to add to the program in Key Largo for additional skimming days if needed. The COUNTY may also elect to extend the program to additional portions of unincorporated Monroe County in the middle and lower Keys, not to exceed 315 canals. 3. Project Schedule Within (48) Hours of Notice to Proceed the CONTRACTOR will submit to COUNTY an advertisement proof to establish the hotline for county residents. Once the proof is 0 L) E U) L) 15 accepted by the COUNTY, the CONTRACTOR will then procure advertisement space in both the Free Press and the Reporter newspapers to alert residents of the hotline to report floating vegetation and debris. The ads will run for the duration of the project, the hotline will be directed to the CONTRACTOR offices and each "call in" will be documented and presented with the monthly reports that include Call Ins, Daily Visit Logs and Photos of debris and vegetation removed. Within (5) Days of Notice to Proceed the CONTRACTOR will commence canal skimming and debris removal operations utilizing our fleet of owned equipment which includes a minimum of (6) Vegetation /Debris removal vessels and (2) Self - Loading Dump Trucks.

Project coordinates are latitude 25.070352 and longitude - 80.462159. (See attached location map.) PROJECT BACKGROUND: In 2013, Monroe County (Grantee) completed a comprehensive Canal Management Master Plan (CMMP) in order to provide a framework to identify, prioritize and correct water quality impairments within the entire Florida Keys canal network. This plan identified 131 canals classified as having Poor water quality. Canals receiving a Poor classification were scored and ranked using specific canal attributes to provide a list of high priority canals which were suitable for consideration of various public works restoration projects. Canal 475 in Key Largo was identified as a Poor canal that is too deep, lacks oxygen, and is in need of a backfilling restoration. In 2015, the Grantee completed an EPA - sponsored alternative technology evaluation to address accumulated muck in canal bottoms which depletes dissolved oxygen levels in the canals. Removal of the muck and addition of oxygen will help to restore the canal waters. The traditional methods of reducing the amount of accumulated muck require the removal of muck by machine and are expensive and disruptive to the use of the canal. The Grantee wants to test alternative methods that, if successful, may be less expensive for the muck removal process. The projects are designed to evaluate the cost, and effectiveness, of utilizing an augmented aeration technology which introduces oxygen and potentially, microbiological organisms, to stimulate bacteria and other organisms to degrade the accumulated muck. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Grantee has implemented six canal restoration demonstration projects prior to this project. The restoration of Canal 475 in Rock Harbor involves backfilling, to raise the canal bottom, to 6 feet below the Mean Sea Level, which is the optimum depth to allow for tidal flow in and out of the canal. The engineering design, access coordination, and permitting services for these demonstration projects are underway, and construction is anticipated to begin in the spring of 2017.
