ITEM BACKGROUND: This item is to approve entering into a contract for $1,600,000 with LPS Utilities Inc. dba LPS Contracting for the installation of two submerged 24" X 38" reinforced elliptical concrete culverts to hydraulically connect Canals 4475 and 4470 on Geiger Key. Canal 475 is located between Boca Chica Rd, Sirius Ln, Star Ln and Vega Lane on Geiger Key. Canal 475 is rated as "poor" in water quality and was selected based on water quality summary, ease of implementation and permitting, and cost of implementation. A culvert installation is a proven restoration technique that was vetted during the demonstration projects and is anticipated to increase the water quality in the canal. The canal management database and other associated ranking criteria for the selection of the canal restoration project was used in the selection of this canal and restoration technique. This contract was procured using a Request for Procurement (RFP) approved by the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) on 6/15/2022 (agenda item 10631). Proposals from three vendors were received by the deadline of 8/19/2022. A selection committee met and ranked the proposals. On 9/21/2022, the BOCC granted approval to enter into negotiations with LPS Utilities for the work to be performed as described in the RFP (agenda item 11002). As explained in agenda item 11002, the selection committee had recommended LPS Utilities as the top ranked vendor after another vendor with a lower price had withdrawn its bid after discovering that it had made an error of approximately $900K. As stated in the contract, the work will be done in accordance with state grant guidelines and is funded by Grant LPA0249 from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection ("FDEP").

The County and Contractor warrant that, in respect to itself, it has neither employed nor retained any company or person, other than a bona AGREEMENT 00500-Page 9 of 21 fide employee working solely for it, to solicit or secure this Agreement and that it has not paid or agreed to pay any person, company, corporation, individual, or firm, other than a bona fide employee working solely for it, any fee, commission, percentage, gift, or other consideration contingent upon or resulting from the award or making of this Agreement. For the breach or violation of the provision, the Contractor agrees that the County shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without liability and, at its discretion, to offset from monies owed, or otherwise recover, the full amount of such fee, commission, percentage, gift, or consideration. n) Public Records Compliance.

The County shall have the right to unilaterally cancel this contract upon violation of this provision by the Contractor. Failure of the Contractor to abide by the terms of this provision shall be deemed a material breach of this contract and the County may enforce the terms of this provision in the form of a court proceeding and shall, as a prevailing party, be entitled to reimbursement of all attorney's fees and costs associated with that proceeding. This provision shall survive any termination or expiration of the contract. The Contractor is encouraged to consult with its advisors about Florida Public Records Law in order to comply with this provision. Pursuant to F.S. 119.0701 and the terms and conditions of this contract, the Contractor is required to: (1) Keep and maintain public records that would be required by the County to perform the service. (2) Upon receipt from the County's custodian of records, provide the County with a copy of the requested records or allow the records to be inspected or copied within a reasonable time at a cost that does not exceed the cost provided in this chapter or as otherwise provided by law. (3) Ensure that public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public records disclosure requirements are not disclosed except as authorized by law for the duration of the contract term and following completion of the contract if the contractor does not transfer the records to the County. (4) Upon completion of the contract, transfer, at no cost, to the County all public records in possession of the Contractor or keep and maintain public records that would be required by the County to perform the service. If the Contractor transfers all public records to the County upon completion of the contract, the Contractor shall destroy any duplicate public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public records disclosure requirements. If the Contractor keeps and maintains public records upon completion of the contract, the Contractor shall meet all applicable requirements for retaining public records. All records stored electronically must be provided to the County, upon request from the County's AGREEMENT 00500-Page 10 of 21 custodian of records, in a format that is compatible with the information technology systems of the County. (5) A request to inspect or copy public records relating to a County contract must be made directly to the County, but if the County does not possess the requested records, the County shall immediately notify the Contractor of the request, and the Contractor must provide the records to the County or allow the records to be inspected or copied within a reasonable time. IF THE CONTRACTOR HAS QUESTIONS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF CHAPTER 119, FLORIDA STATUTES, TO THE CONTRACTOR'S DUTY TO PROVIDE PUBLIC RECORDS RELATING TO THIS CONTRACT, CONTACT THE CUSTODIAN OF PUBLIC RECORDS, BRIAN BRADLEY, AT (305) 292-3470 o) Non-Waiver of Immunity. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sec. 768.28, Florida Statutes, the participation of the Contractor and the County in this Agreement and the acquisition of any commercial liability insurance coverage, self-insurance coverage, or local government liability insurance pool coverage shall not be deemed a waiver of immunity to the extent of liability coverage, nor shall any contract entered into by the County be required to contain any provision for waiver. p) Privileges and Immunities. All of the privileges and immunities from liability, exemptions from laws, ordinances, and rules and pensions and relief, disability, workers' compensation, and other benefits which apply to the activity of officers, agents, or employees of any public agents or employees of the County, when performing their respective functions under this Agreement within the territorial limits of the County shall apply to the same degree and extent to the performance of such functions and duties of such officers, agents, volunteers, or employees outside the territorial limits of the County. q) Legal Obligations and Responsibilities: Non-Delegation of Constitutional or Statutory Duties. This Agreement is not intended to, nor shall it be construed as, relieving any participating entity from any obligation or responsibility imposed upon the entity by law except to the extent of actual and timely performance thereof by any participating entity, in which case the performance may be offered in satisfaction of the obligation or responsibility. Further, this Agreement is not intended to, nor shall it be construed as, authorizing the delegation of the constitutional or statutory duties of the County, except to the extent permitted by the Florida constitution, state statute, and case law. r) Non-Reliance by Non-Parties. No person or entity shall be entitled to rely upon the terms, or any of them, of this Agreement to enforce or attempt to enforce any third- party claim or entitlement to or benefit of any service or program contemplated hereunder, and the County and the Contractor agree that neither the County nor the Contractor or any agent, officer, or employee of either shall have the authority to inform, counsel, or otherwise indicate that any particular individual or group of individuals, entity or entities, AGREEMENT 00500-Page 11 of 21 have entitlements or benefits under this Agreement separate and apart, inferior to, or superior to the community in general or for the purposes contemplated in this Agreement. s) Attestations. Contractor agrees to execute such documents as the County may reasonably require, to include a Public Entity Crime Statement, an Ethics Statement, and a Drug-Free Workplace Statement. t) No Personal Liability. No covenant or agreement contained herein shall be deemed to be a covenant or agreement of any member, officer, agent or employee of Monroe County in his or her individual capacity, and no member, officer, agent or employee of Monroe County shall be liable personally on this Agreement or be subject to any personal liability or accountability by reason of the execution of this Agreement. u) Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be regarded as an original, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart. v) Hold Harmless and Indemnification. Notwithstanding any minimum insurance requirements prescribed elsewhere in this agreement, Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the COUNTY and the COUNTY's elected and appointed officers and employees harmless from and against (i) any claims, actions or causes of action, (ii) any litigation, administrative proceedings, appellate proceedings, or other proceedings relating to any type of injury (including death), loss, damage, fine, penalty or business interruption, and (iii) any costs or expenses that may be asserted against, initiated with respect to, or sustained by, any indemnified party by reason of, or in connection with, (A) any activity of Contractor or any of its employees, agents, contractors or other invitees during the term of this Agreement, (B) the negligence or willful misconduct of Contractor or any of its employees, agents, sub-contractors or other invitees, or (C) Contractor's default in respect of any of the obligations that it undertakes under the terms of this Agreement, except to the extent the claims, actions, causes of action, litigation, proceedings, costs or expenses arise from the intentional or sole negligent acts or omissions of the COUNTY or any of its employees, agents, contractors or invitees (other than Contractor). Insofar as the claims, actions, causes of action, litigation, proceedings, costs or expenses relate to events or circumstances that occur during the term of this Agreement, this section will survive the expiration of the term of this Agreement or any earlier termination of this Agreement. In the event that the completion of the project (to include the work of others) is delayed or suspended as a result of the Contractors failure to purchase or maintain the required insurance, the Contractor shall indemnify the County from any and all increased expenses resulting from such delay. Should any claims be asserted against the County by virtue of any deficiency or ambiguity in the plans and specifications provided by the Contractor, the Contractor agrees and warrants that the Contractor shall hold the County harmless and shall indemnify it from all losses occurring thereby and shall further defend any claim or action on the County's behalf. AGREEMENT 00500-Page 12 of 21 The first ten dollars ($10.00) of remuneration paid to the Contractor is for the indemnification provided for the above. w) Section Headings.

The Work shall include but not be limited to that shown on the Drawing (Ilf;;;xhlilbiiit A Ilf esiii in 1111ra iiiin s) and detailed in the 11 echniicall Specifications included in this Proposal Package. 1.1 SCOPE OF WORK The Scope of Work for Canal #475 located along Boca Chica Road and Vega Lane in Geiger Key, Florida consists of installation of a two submerged 24" X 38" reinforced elliptical concrete culverts to hydraulically connect Canals #475 and #470. The lack of flushing within the canal system has caused a degradation of the water quality below FDEP dissolved oxygen standards. The culverts will increase the turnover rate for the waterbodies that has shown to be successful at achieving the FDEP water quality standards for dissolved oxygen. The reinforced elliptical concrete culverts shall be constructed as shown in the design drawings (Ilf;;;x1h1ilbiiif ). The submerged culvert(s) will be placed at approximately -8.0 NAVD88 and remain submerged at low tide. All heavy equipment will be land based. The two 24" X 38" reinforced elliptical concrete pipes will extend 270 linear feet and 570 linear feet, respectively, to connect canals #475 and #470. Both ends of the culverts will be fitted with manatee grates constructed in accordance with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission guidelines. Vibratory hammers will not be utilized in the installation of the culverts. Silt fence and floating turbidity barriers will be installed prior to construction and maintained throughout the project in accordance with performance standards for erosion and sediment control and stormwater treatment set forth in section 62- 40.432, Florida Administrative Code (FAC). All construction activities will be performed in accordance with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) standard manatee conditions for in- water work and the National Oceanic Atmospheric Association (NOAA) Fisheries construction conditions for sea turtle and smalltooth sawfish. Materials for the culvert will be brought onsite via existing roads. The Contractor shall utilize the County owned ROW for temporary staging of equipment and materials. If the use of private homeowner land is required a Temporary Use approval would be needed prior to issuance of the Notice To Proceed. The Contractor shall return all staging area property to its original condition or better which includes re-grading and re-sodding of disturbed areas. SCOPE OF WORK 00300-Page 1 of 148 The County will obtain the SFWMD ERP, USACE Dredge and Fill permit, FKNMS permit, and Monroe County permit, including a right-of-way permit, if applicable. The Contractor will be responsible to obtain any other necessary permits not identified by the Engineer. The Contractor is required to submit a Construction Methodology Plan (CMP) to Monroe County, including an Erosion and Sediment Control Plan and Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) Plan for approval prior to initiation of construction. Given the dense layout of the community surrounding the project area, the Contractor shall be cognizant of the logistical limitations of transporting material(s) in the space provided in the designated staging areas. Prior to the initiation of excavation activities, the centerline end points of the culvert identified in Ilf;;;:xhiiilblt A shall be located by a licensed surveyor and marked using a method that will remain identifiable until the demolition of the canal headwall is initiated. During the installation of the culvert, alignment checks shall be completed to confirm that a deviation from the centerline end point greater than one foot will not occur. Re-alignment of the culvert shall be approved in writing prior to deviating the excavation footprint. The submerged culvert and concrete seawall will be installed using open cut excavation techniques utilizing trench boxes, back-hoe excavator, front end loader, and roll off containers. The back-hoe will excavate the overburden material and stockpile in designated reuse or unusable roll-off containers to minimize erosion and sediment control concerns. Following the aforementioned excavation, trench boxes will be installed to ensure OSHA requirements are being met for worker safety. For the installation of the culvert the backfill material 12-inches and above the top of the pipe shall be compacted to not less than 95 percent of maximum density as determined by AASHTO Designation T 180. Selected material for backfill shall not contain any stones or rock larger than 3-inches. Additionally, the Contractor shall be aware of the necessity to take care during the culvert installation so as to not damage the boat lifts present in the canal or any other privately owned property. Damage caused by contractor to privately owned property will be a liability of the Contractor not the Engineer or the County. The sequence of Major Activities are as follows: (1) Install temporary erosion and sedimentation controls and maintain these controls for the duration of the work, (2) Construct the staging area as delineated on the Contract Plans (3) Install cofferdam and trash pump (4) Excavate material from the shore and remove unsuitable material from the site (5) Construct features according to design plans and technical specifications SCOPE OF WORK 00300-Page 2 of 148 (5) Stabilize the work area, obtain final approval from Monroe County of all work performed and remove temporary erosion and sedimentation controls and stabilize areas disturbed by the removal of the temporary controls. The Scope of Work shall include, all work shown and listed in the Project Drawings, A. The Contractor is required to provide a complete job as contemplated by the drawings and specifications, which are a part of this proposal package. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, supervision, materials, power, tools, equipment, supplies and any other means of construction necessary or proper for performing and completing the Scope of Work, unless otherwise specifically stated. 1.1.1 DEMONSTRATION OF SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION The Contractor shall provide an as-built survey upon completion of work. The as- built survey shall be certified by a licensed surveyor and demonstrate that the components identified in the Project Drawings (Ilf::::!x miiilbiit ) have been properly installed; that the alignment of the culvert is within one foot of the target location of the centerline end points and that the invert elevation of the culverts are at -8.0 feet NAVD 88. 1.1.2 ARTIFICIAL OBSTRUCTIONS A.

A subsequent written application for the specific number of days of extension of time requested shall be made by the Contractor to Sustainability Manager within (72) hours after the delay has ceased to exist. .1 It is a condition precedent to the consideration or prosecution of any claim for an extension of time that the foregoing provisions be strictly adhered to in each instance and, if the Contractor fails to comply, he shall be deemed to have waived the claim. .2 The Contractor agrees that whether or not any delay, regardless of cause, shall be the basis for an extension of time he shall have no claim against the Owner or Sustainability Manager for an increase in the Contract price, nor a claim against the Owner or Sustainability Manager for a payment or allowance of any kind for damage, loss or expense resulting from delays; nor shall the Contractor have any claim for damage, loss or expense resulting from interruptions to, or suspension of, his work to enable other contractors to perform their work. The only remedy available to the Contractor shall be an extension of time. 6.3 Owner's Right to Clean Up GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 30 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL 6.3.1 If a dispute arises among the Contractor, other contractors and the Owner as to the responsibility under their respective contracts for maintaining the premises and surrounding area free from waste materials and rubbish as described in Paragraph 3.15, the Owner may clean up and allocate the cost among those responsible as Sustainability Manager determines to be just. 7.0 CHANGES IN THE WORK 7.1 Changes 7.1.1 Changes in the Work may be accomplished after execution of the Contract, and without invalidating the Contract, by Change Order, Construction Change Directive or order for a minor change in the Work, subject to the limitations stated in this Article 7 and elsewhere in the Contract Documents. 7.1.2 A Change Order shall be based upon agreement among the Owner, Sustainability Manager, WOOD/Engineer and Contractor; a Construction Change Directive requires agreement by the Owner and Sustainability Manager and may or may not be agreed to by the Contractor; an order for a minor change in the Work may be issued by WOOD/Contractor alone. 7.1.3 Changes in the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the Contract Documents, and the Contractor shall proceed promptly, unless otherwise provided in the Change Order, Construction Change Directive or order for a minor change in the Work. 7.1.4 If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and if quantities originally contemplated are so changed in a proposed Change Order or Construction Change Directive that application of such unit prices to quantities of Work proposed will cause substantial inequity to the Owner or Contractor, the applicable unit prices shall be equitably adjusted. 7.2 Change Orders 7.2.1 A change Order is a written instrument prepared by WOOD/Engineer and signed by the Owner, Sustainability Manager and Contractor stating their agreement upon all of the following: .1 a change in the Work; .2 the amount of the adjustment in the Contract Sum, if any; and .3 the extent of the adjustment in the Contract Time, if any. 7.2.2 The cost or credit to the Owner resulting from a change in the Work shall be determined in one or more of the following methods: .1 mutual acceptance of lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation and payment, and approved by the appropriate authority in writing; .2 unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and approved by the appropriate authority in writing; .3 cost to be determined in a manner agreed upon by the parties and a mutually acceptable fixed or percentage fee; .4 or by method provided in subparagraph 7.2.3. GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 31 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL 7.2.3 If none of the methods set forth in Clauses 7.2.1 or 7.2.2 is agreed upon, the Contractor, provided a written order signed by the Owner or Sustainability Manager is received, shall promptly proceed with the Work involved. The cost of such Work shall then be determined by daily force accounts in a form acceptable to the Owner and Sustainability Manager. The daily force account forms shall identify Contractor and /or Subcontractor personnel by name, total hours for each man, each piece of equipment and total hours for equipment and all material(s) by type for each extra Work activity claim. Each daily force account form shall be signed by the designated Sustainability Manager representative no later than the close of business on the day the Work is performed to verify the items and hours listed. Extended pricing of these forms shall be submitted to Sustainability Manager with all supporting documentation required by Sustainability Manager for inclusion into a change order. Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, cost shall be limited to the following: cost of materials, including sales tax and cost of delivery; cost of labor, including social security, old age and unemployment insurance, and fringe benefits required by agreement or custom; works' or workmen's compensation insurance; and the rental value of equipment and machinery. Markups for overhead and profit will be in accordance with subparagraph 7.2.4. Pending final determination of cost, payments on account shall be made as determined by Sustainability Manager. The amount of credit to be allowed by the Contractor for any deletion or change, which results in a net decrease in the Contract Sum, will be the amount of the actual net cost to the Owner as confirmed by Sustainability Manager. When both additions and credits covering related Work or substitutions are involved in any one change, the allowance for overhead and profit shall be figured on the basis of the net increase, if any with respect to that change. 7.2.4 The actual cost of Changes in the Work may include all items of labor or material, power tools, and equipment actually used, utilities, pro rata charges for foreman, and all payroll charges such as Public Liability and Workmen's Compensation Insurance. No percentage for overhead and profit shall be allowed on items of Social Security and Sales Tax. If deductions are ordered the amount of credit shall be net cost to Owner as defined in section 5.6.1 of the Contract. Items considered as overhead shall include insurance other than that mentioned above, bond or bonds, superintendent, timekeeper, clerks, watchmen, use of small tools, miscellaneous supplies, incidental job costs, warranties, and all general home/field office expenses. The actual cost of Changes in the Work(other than those covered by unit prices set forth in the Contract Documents) shall be computed as follows: .1 if the Contractor performs the actual Work, the maximum percentage mark-up for overhead shall be five percent (5%) and the maximum percentage for profit shall be five percent (5%); 2 if the Subcontractor performs the actual Work, the subcontractor's percentage mark- up for overhead and profit shall be a maximum addition of ten percent (10%). If the Contractor does not perform the Work, the maximum mark-up for managing the Work will be five percent (5%); 3. If the Subcontractor performs part of the actual Work, his percentage mark-up for overhead and profit shall be a maximum addition of ten percent (10%) on his direct Work only. If the Contractor performs part of the actual Work, his percentage mark-up for overhead and profit shall be a maximum addition of ten percent (10%) on his direct Work only. 7.2.5 The Contractor shall furnish to the Owner through Sustainability Manager, an itemized breakdown of the quantities and prices used in computing the value of any change that might be ordered. Any additional supporting documentation requested by Sustainability Manager such as GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 32 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL certified quotations or invoices shall be provided by the Contractor to Sustainability Manager at no additional cost to the Owner. 7.2.6 If the Contractor claims that any instructions given to him by WOOD/Engineer, by drawings or otherwise, involve extra Work not covered by the Contract, he shall give Sustainability Manager written notice thereof within five (5) days after the receipt of such instructions and before proceeding to execute the work, except in emergencies endangering life or property, in which case the Contractor shall proceed in accordance with Paragraph 10.3. .1 The written notice to Sustainability Manager for the Extra Work shall include a complete description of the extra Work, the total cost and a detailed cost breakdown by labor, material and equipment for each additional activity required to be performed. Mark-ups shall be limited as specified elsewhere in this Article. .2 Except as otherwise specifically provided, no claim for additional cost shall be allowed unless the complete notice specified by this subparagraph is given by the Contractor. 7.2.7 Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Contractor shall carry on the Work and maintain its progress during any dispute or claim proceeding, and Owner shall continue to make payments to the Contractor in accordance with the Contract Documents. Disputes unresolved shall be settled in accordance with subparagraph 4.7. The Contractor shall maintain completed daily force account forms in accordance with subparagraph 7.2.3 for any dispute or claim item. 7.3 Authority 7.3.1 WOOD/Engineer will have authority to order minor changes in the Work not involving adjustment in the Contract sum or extension of the Contract Time and not inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Documents. Such changes shall be effected by written order issued through WOOD/Engineer and shall be binding on the Owner and Contractor. The Contractor shall carry out such written order promptly. 8.0 TIME 8.1 Definitions 8.1.1 Unless otherwise provided, Contract Time is the period of time, including authorized adjustments, allotted in the Contract Documents for Substantial Completion of the Work. 8.1.2 The date of commencement of the Work is the date established in the Agreement. The date shall not be postponed by the failure to act of the Contractor or of persons or entities for which the Contractor is responsible. 8.1.3 The date of Substantial Completion is the date certified by Sustainability Manager in accordance with Paragraph 9.8. 8.1.4 The term "day" as used in the Contract Documents shall mean calendar day unless otherwise specifically defined. 8.1.5 The Owner/Sustainability Manager shall be the final judge as to whether Substantial Completion has been achieved and certifies the date to the Contractor. 8.2 Progress and Completion GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 33 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL 8.2.1 Time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Contract. By executing the Agreement the Contractor confirms that the Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing the Work. 8.2.2 The Contractor shall not knowingly, except by agreement or instruction of the Owner in writing, prematurely commence operations on the site or elsewhere prior to the effective date of insurance required by Article 11 to be furnished by the Contractor. The date of commencement of the Work shall not be changed by the effective date of such insurance. 8.2.3 The Contractor shall proceed expeditiously with adequate forces and shall achieve Substantial Completion within the Contract Time. 8.3 Delays and Extensions of Time 8.3.1 If the Contractor is delayed, at any time, in the progress of the Work by any act or neglect of the Owner, Sustainability Manager, or the WOOD/Engineer, or by any employee of either, or by any separate contractor employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by fire, unusual delay in transportation, adverse weather conditions not reasonably anticipatable, unavoidable casualties or any causes beyond the Contractor's control, or by delay authorized by the Owner, Sustainability Manager, or by any other cause which Sustainability Manager determines may justify the delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended by no cost Change Order for such reasonable time as Sustainability Manager may determine, in accordance with subparagraph 6.2.7. 8.3.2 Any claim for extension of time shall be made in writing to Sustainability Manager not more than Seventy-two (72) hours after the commencement of the delay in accordance with paragraph 6.2.7; otherwise it shall be waived. Any claim for extension of time shall state the cause of the delay and the number of days of extension requested. If the cause of the delay is continuing, only one claim is necessary, but the Contractor shall report the termination of the cause for the delay within seventy-two (72) hours after such termination in accordance with paragraph 6.2.7; otherwise, any claim for extension of time based upon that cause shall be waived. 8.3.3 No claim for an increase in the Contract Sum for either acceleration or delay will be allowed for extensions of time pursuant to this Paragraph 8.3 or for other changes in the Construction Schedules. 8.3.4 If the Project is delayed as a result of the Contractor's refusal or failure to begin the Work on the date of commencement as defined in Paragraph 8.1.2, or his refusal or failure to carry the Work forward expeditiously with adequate forces, the Contractor causing the delay shall be liable for, but not limited to, delay claims from other Contractors which are affected. 9.0 PAYMENTS AND COMPLETION 9.1 Contract Sum 9.1.1 The Contract Sum is stated in the Agreement and, including authorized adjustments, is the total amount payable by the Owner to the Contractor for performance of the Work under the Contract Documents. 9.2 Schedule of Values 9.2.1 Before submittal of the first Application for Payment, the Contractor shall submit to WOOD/Engineer, a schedule of values allocated to various portions of the Work, prepared in such GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 34 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL form and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as WOOD/Engineer may require. This schedule, unless objected to by Sustainability Manager, shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Contractor's Applications for Payment. 9.3 Applications for Payment 9.3.1 At least fifteen days before the date established for each progress payment,the Contractor shall submit to WOOD/Engineer an itemized Application for Payment for Work completed in accordance with the schedule of values. Such application shall be notarized and supported by such data substantiating the Contractor's right to payment as the Owner or Sustainability Manager may require, such as copies of requisitions from Subcontractors and material suppliers, and reflecting retainage if provided for elsewhere in the Contract Documents. .1 Such applications may include request for payment on account of changes in the Work which have been properly authorized by Construction Change Directives but not yet included in Change Orders. .2 Such applications may not include requests for payment of amounts the Contractor does not intend to pay to a Subcontractor or material supplier because of a dispute or other reason. 9.3.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, payments shall be made on account of materials and equipment delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation in the Work. If approved in advance by the Owner, payment may similarly be made for materials and equipment suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in writing. Payment for materials and equipment stored on or off the site shall be conditioned upon compliance by the Contractor with procedures satisfactory to the Owner to establish the Owner's title to such materials and equipment or otherwise protect the Owner's interest, and shall include applicable insurance, storage and transportation to the site for such materials and equipment stored off the site. 9.3.3 The Contractor warrants that title to all Work covered by an Application for Payment will pass to the Owner no later than the time of payment. The Contractor further warrants that upon submittal of an Application for Payment all Work for which approval for payment have been previously issued and payments received from the Owner shall, to the best of the Contractor's knowledge, information and belief, be free and clear of liens, claims security interests or encumbrances in favor of the Contractor, Subcontractors, material suppliers, or other persons or entities making a claim by reason of having provided labor, materials and equipment relating to the Work. All Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors shall execute an agreement stating that title will so pass, upon their receipt of payment from the Contractor. The warranties are for the administrative convenience of the Owner only and do not create an obligation on the part of the Owner to pay directly any unpaid subcontractor, laborer or materialmen. Such persons must seek payment from the Contractor or his public construction bond surety only. 9.4 Approval for Payment 9.4.1 WOOD/Engineer will assemble a Project Application for Payment by combining the Contractor's applications with similar applications for progress payments from other Contractors and certify the amounts due on such applications. 9.4.2 After the WOOD/Engineer's receipt of the Project Application for Payment, WOOD/Engineer will either recommend approval to the Sustainability Manager for the Application GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 35 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL for Payment, with a copy to the Contractor, for such amount as WOOD/Engineer recommends to the Sustainability Manager is properly due, or notify the Contractor in writing of WOOD/Engineer's reasons for withholding approval in whole or in part as provided in Subparagraph 9.5.1 9.4.3 The issuance of a separate Approval for Payment will constitute representations made by WOOD/Engineer to the Owner, based on their individual observations at the site and the data comprising the Application for Payment submitted by the Contractor, that the Work has progressed to the point indicated and that, to the best of WOOD/Engineer's knowledge, information and belief, quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents. The foregoing representations are subject to an evaluation of the Work for conformance with the Contract Documents upon Substantial Completion, to results of subsequent tests and inspections, to minor deviations from the Contract Documents correctable prior to completion and to specific qualifications expressed by WOOD/Engineer. The issuance of a separate Approval for Payment will further constitute a representation that the Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount approved. However, the issuance of a separate Approval for Payment will not be a representation that WOOD/Engineer has (1) made exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work, (2) reviewed the Contractor's construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, (3) reviewed copies of requisitions received from Subcontractors and material suppliers and other data requested by the Owner to substantiate the Contractor's right to payment or (4) made examination to ascertain how or for what purpose the Contractor has used money previously paid on account of the Contract Sum. 9.5 Decisions to Withhold Approval 9.5.1 WOOD/Engineer may decline to approve an Application for Payment if, in his opinion, the application is not adequately supported. If the Contractor and WOOD/Engineer cannot agree on a revised amount, WOOD/Engineer shall process the Application for the amount it deems appropriate. WOOD/Engineer may also decline to approve any Application for Payment because of subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent inspections. It may nullify, in whole or part, any approval previously made to such extent as may be necessary in its opinion because of: (1) defective Work not remedied; (2) third party claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of such claims; (3) failure of the Contractor to make payments properly to Subcontractors or for labor, materials, or equipment; (4) reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum; (5)damage to WOOD/Engineer, Sustainability Manager, the Owner, or another contractor working at the project; (6) reasonable evidence that the Work will not be completed within the contract time; (7) persistent failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. No payment shall be made to the Contractor until certificates of insurance or other evidence of compliance by the Contractor, with all the requirements of Article 11, have been filed with the Owner and Sustainability Manager. 9.5.2 When the above reasons for withholding approval are removed, approval will be made for amounts previously withheld. 9.6 Progress Payments 9.6.1 After WOOD/Engineer has issued an Approval for Payment, the Owner shall make payment in the manner and within the time provided in the Contract Documents, and shall so notify WOOD/Engineer. From the total of the amount determined to be payable on a progress payment, a retainage in accordance with the Florida Local Government Prompt Payment Act, GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 36 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL Chapter 218, Florida Statutes will be deducted and retained by the Owner until the final payment is made. The balance of the amount payable, less all previous payments, shall be approved for payment. .1 It is understood and agreed that the Contractor shall not be entitled to demand or receive progress payment based on quantities of Work in excess of those provided in the proposal or covered by approved change orders, except when such excess quantities have been determined by WOOD/Engineer and Sustainability Manager to be a part of the final quantity for the item of Work in question. .2 No progress payment shall bind the Owner to the acceptance of any materials or Work in place, as to quality or quantity. All progress payments are subject to correction at the time of final payments. 9.6.2 The Contractor shall promptly pay each Subcontractor, upon receipt of payment from the Owner, out of the amount paid to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion of the Work, the amount to which said Subcontractor is entitled, reflecting percentages actually retained from payments to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion of the Work. The Contractor shall, by appropriate agreement with each Subcontractor, require each Subcontractor to make payments to Sub-subcontractors in similar manner. 9.6.3 WOOD/Engineer will, on request, furnish to a Subcontractor, if practicable, information regarding percentages of completion or amounts applied for by the Contractor and action taken thereon by the Owner and Sustainability Manager on account of portions of the Work done by such Subcontractor. 9.6.4 Neither the Owner nor Sustainability Manager shall have an obligation to pay, or to see to, the payment of money to a Subcontractor except as may otherwise be required by law. 9.6.5 Payment to material suppliers shall be treated in a manner similar to that provided in Subparagraphs 9.6.2, 9.6.3 and 9.6.4. 9.6.6 A progress payment, or partial or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the Owner shall not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents. 9.6.7 All material and work covered by partial payments made shall thereupon become the sole property of the Owner, and by this provision shall not be construed as relieving the Contractor from the sole responsibility for the materials and Work upon which payments have been made or the restoration for any damaged material, or as a waiver of the right of the Owner or Sustainability Manager to require the fulfillment of all the terms of the Contract. 9.6.8 Except in case of bona fide disputes, or where the Contractor has some other justifiable reason for delay, the Contractor shall pay for all transportation and utility services not later than the end of the calendar month following that in which services are rendered and for all materials, tools, and other expendable equipment which are delivered at the site of the Project. The Contractor shall pay to each of his Subcontractors, not later than the end of the calendar month in which each payment is made to the Contractor, the representative amount allowed the Contractor on account of the Work performed by the Subcontractor. The Contractor shall, by an appropriate agreement with each Subcontractor, also require each Subcontractor to make payments to his suppliers and Sub-subcontractors in a similar manner. 9.8 Substantial Completion 9.8.1 Substantial Completion is the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work or designated portion thereof is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work for its intended use. GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 37 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL 9.8.2 When the Contractor considers that the Work, or a portion thereof which the Owner agrees to accept separately, is substantially complete, the Contractor and WOOD/Engineer shall jointly prepare a comprehensive list of items to be completed or corrected. The Contractor shall proceed promptly to complete and correct items on the list. Failure to include an item on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. Upon receipt of the list, WOOD/Engineer will make an inspection to determine whether the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete. If the inspection discloses any item, whether or not included on the list, which is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall, before issuance of the Certificate of Substantial Completion, complete or correct such item upon notification by WOOD/Engineer. The Contractor shall then submit a request for another inspection by WOOD/Engineer, to determine Substantial Completion. When the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete, WOOD/Engineer will prepare a Certificate of Substantial Completion, shall establish responsibilities of the Owner and Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and shall fix the time within which the Contractor shall finish all items on the list accompanying the Certificate. Warranties required by the Contract Documents shall commence on the date of Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Substantial Completion. The Certificate of Substantial Completion shall be submitted to the Owner and Contractor for their written acceptance of responsibilities assigned to them in such Certificate. 9.8.3 Upon Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof and upon application by the Contractor and certification by WOOD/Engineer and Sustainability Manager, the Owner shall make payment, reflecting adjustment in retainage, if any, for such Work or portion thereof as provided in the Contract Documents. 9.9 Partial Occupancy or Use 9.9.1 The Owner may occupy or use any completed or partially completed portion of the Work at any stage when such portion is designated by separate agreement with the Contractor, provided such occupancy or use is consented to by the insurer as required under Subparagraph 11.3.1 and authorized by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Work. Such partial occupancy or use may commence whether or not the portion is substantially complete, provided the Owner and Contractor have accepted in writing the responsibilities assigned to each of them for payments, retainage if any, security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and have agreed in writing concerning the period for correction of the Work and commencement of warranties required by the Contract Documents. When the Contractor considers a portion substantially complete, the Contractor and WOOD/Engineer shall jointly prepare a list as provided under Subparagraph 9.8.2. Consent of the Contractor to partial occupancy or use shall not be unreasonably withheld. The stage of the progress of the Work shall be determined by written agreement between the Owner and Contractor or, if no agreement is reached, by decision of Sustainability Manager. 9.9.2 Immediately prior to such partial occupancy or use, the Owner, Sustainability Manager, WOOD/Engineer and Contractor shall jointly inspect the area to be occupied or portion of the Work to be used in order to determine and record the condition of the Work. 9.9.3 Unless otherwise agreed upon, partial occupancy or use of a portion or portions of the Work shall not constitute acceptance of Work not complying with the requirements of the Contract Documents. 9.10 Final Completion and Final Payment GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750-Page 38 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL 9.10.1 Upon completion of the Work, the Contractor shall forward to WOOD/Engineer a written Notice that the Work is ready for final inspection and acceptance and shall also forward to WOOD/Engineer a final Contractor's Application for Payment. Upon receipt, WOOD/Engineer will promptly make such inspection. When WOOD/Engineer finds the Work acceptable under the Contract Documents and the Contract fully performed, WOOD/Engineer will promptly issue a final Approval for Payment stating that to the best of their knowledge, information and belief, and on the basis of their observations and inspections, the Work has been completed in accordance with terms and conditions of the Contract Documents and that the entire balance found to be due the Contractor and noted in said final Approval is due and payable. WOOD/Engineer's final Approval for Payment will constitute a further representation that conditions listed in Subparagraph 9.10.2 as precedent to the Contractor's being entitled to final payment have been fulfilled. 9.10.2 Neither final payment nor any remaining retained percentage shall become due until the Contractor submits to WOOD/Engineer and Sustainability Manager (1) an affidavit that payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the Owner or the Owner's property might be responsible or encumbered (less amounts withheld by Owner) have been paid or otherwise satisfied, (2) a certificate evidencing that insurance required by the Contract Documents to remain in force after final payment is made, is currently in effect and will not be canceled or allowed to expire until at least 30 days' prior written notice has been given to the Owner, (3) a written statement that the Contractor knows of no substantial reason that the insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Contract Documents, (4) consent of surety, if any, to final payment and (5), if required by the Owner, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of obligations, such as receipts, releases and waivers of liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances arising out of the Contract.

Evidence of payment and final release of liens and consent of surety to final release (includes final release from all utilities and utility companies). 9.10.3 Acceptance of final payment by the Contractor, a Subcontractor or material supplier shall constitute a waiver of claims by that payee except those previously made in writing and identified by that payee as unsettled at the time of final Application for Payment. Such waivers shall be in addition to the waiver described Subparagraph 4.7.5. 9.11 Payment of Subcontractors 9.11.1 Any requirement of this Article 9 that the Contractor furnish proof to the Owner or Sustainability Manager that the subcontractors and materialmen have been paid is for the protection and convenience of the Owner only. Unpaid subcontractors and materialmen may only seek payment from the Contractor and the surety that provided the Contractor's Public Construction Bond. The Contractor must insert this paragraph 9.11 in all its contracts with subcontractors and materialmen. 10.0 PROTECTION OF PERSONS AND PROPERTY 10.1 Safety Precautions and Programs 10.1.1 The Contractor shall be responsible for initiating, maintaining and supervising all safety precautions and programs in connection with the performance of the Contract. The Contractor shall submit the Contractor's safety program to WOOD/Engineer for review, approval and coordination with the safety programs of other Contractors. 10.1.2 In the event the Contractor encounters on the site material reasonably believed to be asbestos or polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) which has not been rendered harmless, the Contractor shall immediately stop Work in the area affected and report the condition to the Owner, Sustainability Manager and WOOD/Engineer in writing. The Work in the affected area shall not thereafter be resumed except by written agreement of the Owner and Contractor if in fact the material is asbestos or polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)and has not been rendered harmless. The Work in the affected area shall be resumed in the absence of asbestos or polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), or when it has been rendered harmless, by written agreement of the Owner and Contractor. 10.1.3 The Contractor shall not be required pursuant to Article 7 to perform without consent any Work relating to asbestos or polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB). 10.1.5 If reasonable precautions will be inadequate to prevent foreseeable bodily injury or death to persons resulting from a material or substance encountered on the site by the Contractor, the Contractor shall, upon recognizing the condition, immediately stop Work in the affected area and report the condition to WOOD/Engineer and Sustainability Manager in writing. The Owner, Contractor and Sustainability Manager shall then proceed in the same manner described in Subparagraph 10.1.2. 10.1.6 The Owner shall be responsible for obtaining the services of a licensed laboratory to verify a presence or absence of the material or substance reported by the Contractor and, in the event such material or substance is found to be present, to verify that it has been rendered harmless.

(b) Approval of inspection and test reports of materials and equipment to be utilized. (c) Completion of previous operations of preliminary work. (d) Availability of materials and equipment required. (e) Potential utility outages. (f) Any other preparatory steps dependent upon the particular operation. (g) Quality standards. (h) Safety or environmental precautions to be observed. (Phase Hazard) Note: WOOD/Engineer will record the minutes to this inspection meeting and distribute accordingly. 2. Initial Inspection—Upon completion of a representative sample of a given feature of the work, the Contractor's Quality Control Representative will meet with Sustainability Manager's representative WOOD/Engineer and check the following items at a minimum for conformance: (a) Workmanship to established quality standards. (b) Conformance to contract drawings and specifications. (c) Construction methods, equipment and tools utilized. (d) Materials and articles utilized. (e) Adequacy of testing methods. (f) Adequacy of shop drawings. (g) Adequacy of safety or environmental precautions. Note: WOOD/Engineer will record the minutes to this inspection meeting and distribute accordingly. 3. Follow-up Inspections—The Contractor's Quality Control Representative will inspect the work daily to assure the continuing conformance of the work to the workmanship standards established during the preparatory and initial inspections. CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PLAN 00980-Page 63 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL Additionally, as a part of the follow-up inspection, sign-off sheets will be utilized as often as possible. The intent of these sheets is to achieve concurrence from other trade contractors and responsible parties that ensuing work can indeed commence over underlying work. This will prevent oversights and omissions which could elevate costs. Sign-off sheets shall be used for, but not be limited to, concrete, drywall, ceilings, painting, roofing substrates and flooring. These reports are to be generated by the Contractor and submitted to WOOD/Engineer Superintendent for approval prior to the start-up of work. Failure to generate a sign-off sheet or to attain proper signatures prior to covering up underlying work may affect payment for that piece of work if ensuing problems are detected or not. This disciplinary action shall be carried out via the Nonconformance Report. (See Section 1.4.13 of this plan.) Note: The Contractor shall be responsible to record these inspections and all other project related activities encountered throughout the day on the Contractor Daily Quality Control Report. 4. Completion Inspections—Upon completion of a given feature of the work, the Contractor's Quality Control Representative will meet with the Sustainability Manager representative WOOD/Engineer, if he so desires to attend, to perform an inspection of the completed work. Nonconforming items will be identified and corrected prior to commencement of the next operation. Note: The Contractor shall conduct and report corrections of this inspection which shall be a required submittal. 5. Follow-On Inspections—Upon execution of the contractor's completion inspection in elements of the work which result in concealment; such as, ceiling and drywall installations, the Contractor shall schedule and conduct multi-trade or singular inspections prior to covering installation. Note: WOOD/Engineer will record the minutes to this inspection meeting. 6. Pre-Final Inspection—Upon substantial completion of the project work WOOD/Engineer shall coordinate and conduct a universal inspection of all areas and elements of the work. The Sustainability Manager may be represented if she so desires. This inspection shall be completed at least (15) days prior to the final substantial completion inspection which shall be conducted by WOOD/Engineer. All deficiencies and incomplete work should be completed prior to the final substantial completion inspection. B. OPERATION AND CHECK OUT TESTING CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PLAN 00980-Page 64 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL The Contractor will provide personnel and equipment to perform the operational tests and check-out of the equipment, facilities or equipment constructed, fabricated or installed under this Contract. The Sustainability Manager representative WOOD/Engineer will coordinate and witness all such tests. Notification should be given at least ten (10) days in advance of the scheduled tests. C. FINAL INSPECTION WOOD/Engineer will coordinate and attend all final inspections of the work. The Sustainability Manager may be represented if she so desires. Prior to requesting a final inspection, all tests for the equipment and systems must be completed. See Section 01700 for contract closeout. 1.4 REPORTING Maintaining accurate and retrievable records is extremely important in the Quality Assurance Program. These records will act as a main source of information in the present and in the future for the entire Sustainability Manager team. The main report that will be utilized to provide this information is the Daily Quality Control Report. Nonconformance Reports may also be issued. A. DAILY QUALITY CONTROL REPORT The Daily Quality Control Report shall be used to document the summary of daily inspection activities performed by the Contractor's designated Quality Control Representative. It shall include any of the steps of inspection that are performed that day, all test monitoring and any rework of nonconforming items. The daily Quality Control Report section of the Daily Superintendent's Report will be routinely used for daily reporting requirements. When the magnitude or complexity necessitates such, a more separate and comprehensive form will be used. Reference Contractor's Daily Report, and as needed Contractor Daily Quality Control Report, Section 01385. B. NONCONFORMANCE REPORT Nonconformance Reports will be issued for work that is found to be in nonconformance with the contract documents or the referenced quality standards. The report will be issued by Sustainability Manager. It is not the intent to routinely and repeatedly issue nonconformance reports, but to issue them only after normal enforcement standards have been exhausted, or if the work performed is a detriment to the project. A copy of the Nonconformance Report will be forwarded to the Site Project Manager for his information and/or action. It should also be included in the Contractor's Daily Quality Report package for general review. Nonconformance Reports will be signed off once the deficient item or items have adequately been corrected. This will be done by the issuing Superintendent and CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PLAN 00980-Page 65 of 148 CULVERT INSTALLATION WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CANAL #475 GEIGER KEY, KEY WEST, MONROE COUNTY, FL Project Manager. These sign-offs will be included with a corresponding corrective action taken. Significant nonconformance needs to be addressed to prevent recurrence. The signed-off report will also be submitted for review. Work activities affected by a Nonconformance Report will proportionally counter- affect payments. Whether that be partial or full retainage will be left up to the discretion of Sustainability Manager. 1.5 AUDITS A. Sustainability Manager may choose at its option to perform Contractor audits of their Contractor Quality Control Plan at any time. Reports of these audit results will be forwarded to the Project Manager for his action. Any action items noted during an audit for the Contractor will be followed up and documented to insure compliance and avoid recurrence. 1.6 SUMMARY The intention of this plan is to create a system of checks and balances that will minimize delays caused by rework and a lack of planning and maximize production and insure that the finished product is one that the entire construction team can pride themselves in. These goals can be achieved by giving the Owner exactly what he has bought. The Owner will expect no more and through Quality Assurance, the construction team will provide no less.

Attachment 2 2 of 2 Rev.8/10/2020 ATTACHMENT 3 GRANT WORK PLAN PROJECT TITLE: Monroe County Canals#25,#259,#291, and 4475 Restoration Projects PROJECT LOCATION: The Project will be located within various canals in unincorporated Monroe County; see table below for locations: Canal# Area Latitude Longitude 25 Key Largo 25.1670 -80.3831 259 Big Pine Key 24.7031 -81.3499 291 Big Pine Key 24.6754 -81.3716 475 Geiger Key 24.5791 -81.6557 PROJECT BACKGROUND In 2013, Phase 11 of the Monroe County Canal Management Master Plan (CMMP) was completed that evaluated the conditions of the Keys canals, prioritized the need for water quality improvement, and identified appropriate restoration options for each canal: • Culvert • Air Curtain/Weedgate • Organic Removal • Backfill As part of the Canal Restoration Demonstration Program, Florida International University (FIU) assessed the effectiveness of the various technologies implemented by Monroe County and its partners by comparing treated canals against nearby,unaltered controls over a period of three years. Based on data collected during the limited monitoring period, FIU made the following conclusions about the culvert, air curtain, and backfill technology(s): • This technology effectively increased oxygenation by improving circulation and exchange. This is in alignment with the purpose of culverts which are to stimulate the exchange with cleaner near shore waters; Since the demonstration canal restorations were proposed by Monroe County,the canal restoration program has grown to include over 17 residential canal restoration projects throughout Monroe County. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The canals (#25 Key Largo, #259 Big Pine Key, #291 Big Pine Key, and #475 Geiger Key) are a continuation of the canal restoration program in accordance with the Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) canal restoration work as detailed in the Monroe County 28.20.140 Comprehensive Plan. The projects will be designed to promote flushing in the canal by removing the deep stagnant zones within the canals and promote a viable benthic community which will help to restore the canal waters to Florida Department of Environmental Protection(FDEP) Dissolved Oxygen standards.
