The work will be done in accordance with FDEP Grant amendment #1 to LPA0248,
attached as Exhibit A and as specified below:
Task 1: Canal #105 Tavernier Data Collection, Design, Permitting and Procurement
The Consultant will conduct bathymetric and topographic survey for the affected canal
area and surrounding structures within the project boundary. The bathymetric surveys will
be carried out utilizing a survey- grade GPS unit operating in Real Time Kinematic (RTK)
mode mounted atop an adjustable height rod. This apparatus will be used in a boat to
traverse the canal area as best as possible to establish a grid of canal bottom elevations
sufficient to develop a digital elevation model. The topographic data will be acquired using
traditional survey methodologies for the road, existing utilities, private property, and any
other significant structure within the project boundary. Jurisdictional wetland lines and
associated water elevations will be determined as required for permitting. Topographic
and bathymetric maps will be prepared for design and permitting of the project. The survey
and subsequent work will be relative to the North American Datum of 1983/2007
Adjustment(NAD83/07)and the North American Vertical Datum of 1988(NAVD88)based
on nearby National Geodetic Survey (NOS) and/or Florida Department of Transportation
(FDOT) horizontal and vertical geodetic control monuments. Surveying and mapping
services associated with this assignment will conform with the applicable requirements of
the Department's Bureau of Survey and Mapping, and applicable sections of Florida
Administrative Rule Chapter 5J-17, Standards of Practice, pursuant to Chapter 472,
Florida Statutes.
The Consultant shall conduct a determination of the boundaries of jurisdictional waters of
the U.S., including wetlands, on the subject site as required for permitting. Delineation
includes on-site determination, marking in the field with a handheld GPS unit (sub-meter
accuracy), and flagging of the aerial extent of each wetland (if any). If any wetlands are
identified, then a Uniform Mitigation Assessment Method (UMAM)form will be completed.
In conjunction with the wetland delineation, a threatened and endangered species survey
as required in an Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) for the proposed action.
Consultant will conduct an in-water survey of the benthos to determine the presence of
sensitive aquatic resources (i.e. seagrasses, corals, or sponges) within the immediate
area of the project
Conduct an engineering site visit to determine the site conditions, such as seawall
conditions, existing utilities, and construction staging areas within the project boundary.
Consultant will prepare and distribute via certified mail a notification letter to all property
owners on the canals discussing the proposed restoration and attend one (1) virtual
neighborhood public meeting to discuss the proposed project.
Contact will be made with select property owner(s)for initial determination of approval for
staging area use/equipment placement. If verbal approval for staging/equipment area use
is obtained, an access agreement/easement will be prepared for approval by Monroe
County and signatures will be obtained from the property owner.

waters. In response to the recommendations of the CMMP, Monroe County allocated approximately $5
million for the restoration of water quality in residential canals within unincorporated Monroe County.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Monroe County(Grantee)will continue the canal restoration program within
the 11 listed canals. The projects will be designed to promote flushing in the canals by removing the deep

canal waters. The Grantee will restore as many of the 11 canals as possible with the grant funding.
