FCQ)RXD~ has receiveD an application from
anD
RACPH BRQ)WN
WHEREAs;, in compliance with SState SStatue, it is necessary as
part of the permitting proceDure to reaD the following Biological
Assessment inot the RecorD, as follows:
The applicant proposes to construct a !100' long riprap revetment along
a residential shoreline which faces the shallow, open waters of Hawk's
Channel.
A tot~l of 170 cubic yards of riprap, cement and backfill would be placed
at the applicant's property line (about the line of mean sea level).
Of this amount, about 150 cubic yards would be placed landward of the mean
high water (MHW) line.
An L-shaped dock would be constructed our from the riprap line. This
dock would measure 25' long by 4' wide. The L-shaped end would be 20'
x4' .
The project site is located on the south side of Mar.athon within a residen-
tial area that was apparently created from the deposition of dredge spoil.
As a result, a trianglular shaped land protrusion exists which is bordered
on nearly all sides by water.
A shallow and somewhat narrow peripheral channel fringes this land protrusion
providing offshore access for small boats.
Development of the 16 lots that are contained within Ocean East, Inc.
subdivision is estimated to be about 50 percent complete.
The shoreline of this subdivision which faces north, and on which the
applicant's property is situated, displays a fair amount of erosion. The
property adjacent to the applicant's to the west has been riprapped at
about the line of MSL. This property possesses a boat dock similar to the
one proposed by the applicant.
The propertyadjacent to the applicant's to the east does not have any type
of shoreline stabilization or development.
The applicant's property displays a distinct erosion line up to which
extreme high tides reach. Fill and various types of debris from the construct-
ion of a house (which is underway)have been deposited up to this erosion line .
Waterward of the erosion line, a !20' wide limerock rubble intertidal area
is encountered. This area possessed no macrophytic growth. Several species
of gastropds (Neritia sp. and Batillaria sp.) were observed here.
Over the western side of the shoreline shelf, a narrow strip (9'-4')
of turtlegrass (Thalassia testudinum) and shoalweed (Halodule wrightii)
has become established. This strip is seagrasses borders the inside edge of
the" narrow perimeter channel which parallels the shoreline.
Halophytes observed immediately landward of the extreme high water line
(wrack line) included sea purslane (Sesuvium portulacastrum), railroad vine
(Ipomea pes-caprae) and sea daisy (Borrichia sp)
No adverse impacts are anticipated. The stabilization of this shoreline
should promote a more permanent and stable intertidal and subtidal biological
community in the immediate area.
Under the provisons of the Florida Statues and Chapters 17-3 and 17-4 of the
Florida Administrative Code, permitting approval is recommended. As conditions
to this approval, it is recommended that 1) the proposal riprap be placed
no further waterward than mean sea level and 2) if backfill is used, it
should be placed after the riprap and appropriate backfill retention materials
are in place.

Township 66Sduth, Range 32East, Section 14,
Ocean East, Inc., Lot 11 Ocean East St.,
Boot Key, Monroe County, Florida
Introduction
This -aiJpJA-G-at-ion, f{}p. a'rip rap seawRl.Ln.and dock, is to be reviewed
by the Monroe County Co!!!miss.i-Gn-p.e-r-suant to section 19-111 (a){5)
of the Monroe County Code.
Project and Site Description
The applicant proposes to stabilize his shoreline with 170 cubic yards
of rip rap boulders and associated backfill in which 20 cubic yards are
proposed for placement below the mean high water line. Also, the appli-
cant proposes a 25 ft. dock with a 20 ft. L at the end.
A site inspection on 3/30/84 found the area of proposed activity to be
a racky_.shoreline devoid of vegetation. Intertidally, small nereid snails
were observed. Subtidally, small patches of turtle grass and cuban shoal
weed were observed. Additional information may be obtained in the attached
FDER biological assessment;
Evaluation
Mr. Brown's proposal of rip rap boulders will aid in shoreline stabili-
zation. This is consistent with the code and the management policies
of the comprehensive plan. However, the dock proposed by Mr. Brown would
be erected in the middle of a small navigable channel that services boat
traffic to the west of the property. The attached photograph shows an
existing dock on the property to the west of Mr. Brown's lot. It is
recommended that the location of the dock be modified so as not to inter-
fere with navigation yet provide adequate water depth for boat dOCkage
(as Mr. Brown's neighbor has done).
Recommendation
Conditional approval: the dock should be relocated along the shoreline
so as not to interfere with navigation, yet provide adequate water
depth for boat dockage.

A. The applicant ptoposes to construct a +100' long rlprap
revetment along a residential shoreline which faces the
shallow, open waters of Hawk's Channel.
'--.,
A total of 170 cubic yards of riprap, cement and backfill
would be placed at the applicant's property line (about
the line of mean sea level). Of this amount, about 150
cubic yards would be placed landward of the mean high
water (MHW) line.
AnL-shaped dock would be constructed out from the riprap
line. This dock would measure 25' long by 4' wide. The
L-shaped end would be 20' x 4'.
B. The project site is located on the south side of Marathon
within a residenti~l area that was apparently created from
the deposition of dredyc spoil. As a result, a triangular-
shaped land protrusion exists which is bordered on nearly
all sides by wator.
A shullow uncl somewhat: narrow peripheral channel fringes this
land protrusion, Pl'uvidinq offshore access for small bOuts.
Development of the 16 lots that are contained within Ocean
East, Inc. subdivision is estimated to be about 50 percent
complete.
The shoreline of this subdivision which faces north,and on
which the applicunt's property is situated, displays a fair
amount of erosion. The property adjacent to the applicant's
to the west has been riprapped at about the line of MSL.
This property possesses a boat dock similar to the one pro-
posed by the applicunt.
The property adjacent to the upplicant's to the east does not
have any type of shoreline stabilization or development.
C. The applicant's property gisplays a distinct erosion line up
to which extreme high tides reach. Fill and various types
of debris from the construction of a house (which is underway)
have been deposited up to this erosion line.
Waterward of the erosion line, a +20' wide limerock rubble
intertidal area is encountered. This area possessed no
macrophytic growth. Several species of gastropods (Neritia sp.
and Batillaria sp.) were observed here.

Over the westerh side of the shoreline shelf, a narrow strip
(0'-4') of turtlegrilss (Thalilssia testudinum) and shoalweed
(Halodule wrightii) has become established. This strip of
seagrasses borders the inside edge of the narrow perimeter
channel which parallels the shoreline.
Halophytes observed immediately landward of the extreme high
water line (wrack line) included sea purslane (Sesuvium
portulacastrum), rililroad vine (Ipomea pes-caprae) and sea
daisy (Borrichia sp.).
D. No adverse impacts dre ~nticipated. The stabiliziltion of
this shoreline should promote a more permanent and stable
intertidal and subtirlal biological community in the immediate
area.
