and
- a
3UHERE$, in compliance with tat $tafute, it is neeessarg as
part of the permitting prarebure fn r�izah the fallowing Biningiral
Assessment into the Reran), as follow :
The applicant wishes to control erosion along his shoreline and provide
commercial boat mooring facilities. The erosion controls will be
achieved by placing riprap along the existing shoreline. An estimated
30 cu. yds. of riprap will be placed waterward of mean high water (MHW)
and 5 cu.. yds. landward of MHW in order to protect the 250t ft. of
shoreline.
Docking facilities will be provided by building a 93 ft. by 7 ft. wood
pile supported pier with a 40 ft. by 7 ft. "T" at its waterward end
(931 sq. ft.. total area) . Four mooring piles will be placed 45 ft. beyond
the end of 'the dock to create 3 slips11' The dock will apparently be utilized
by commercial fishing boats.
Placement of the riprap will be accomplished by backhoe .and hand. No
mention of how the riprap will be brought to site is made, however, upland
routes are readily available. Dock piling will be augered into place
from a barge. The remainder of the dock will be built by hand.
The project site is located on the north side of Vaca Key at its extreme
east end. General development in the;vicinity of the project site consists
of a patchwork of conventional single� family residences, trailer parks,
stores restaurants, commercial marinas, etc. Much of the nearby shore-
line has been altered by these developments.
Bordering the east side of the project site is a small group of mobile
homes. The shoreline adjacent to theimobile homes has been seawalled.
Along the west side of the project site, a single family home is located.
The grounds around this house are used for storing lobster traps and its
shoreline has been riprapped. To the' south of the project site is several
hundred feet of cleared land much of which belongs to the applicant. Florida
Bay, which is in the vicinity of the project site, is designated as"Class
III waters. (Chapter 17-3.081, Florida Administrative Code) lies to the
north. •
The project site consists of the waterward side of the applicant's pro-
perty and the adjacent near shore section of Florida Bay. The shoreline
runs from the northeast to the southwest. The near shore area- of,the
applicant's property consists of recently filled uplands. The area is
presently being used for the construction and storage of lobster traps.
A check of the Department's local records did not produce any record of
authorization for filling wetlands onithe site.
A 20± ft. section of shoreline in the: northeast corner of the site has
been left unfilled. Vegatation in tiis area consists of white mangroves
(Laguncularia racemosa) , black mangroves (Avicennia germinans) and red
mangroves (Rhizophora mangle) trees. The shoreline consists of solution
based Key Largo Limestone.

The. majority of the project site shoreline consists of exposed fill
which extends below MHW. In some areas, the natural shoreline remains
exposed and a small clump of white mangrove is located in one of
these areas, just waterward of the fill. At the southwest end of the
shoreline a small section of riprap revetment has already been built.
Biota, living in the littoral zone, consists of bluegreen algae mats,
fuzzy chiton (Acanthopleura. granulata) , false cerith (Batillaria minima) ,
red-brown ark (Barbatia concellaria) ,' hermit crabs and mussells. In
general, the biota was observed to be; richer in' areas of natural bottom
than in areas covered by fill. I
Starting at approximately MIN, a 20± ft. wide zone in which the' seafloor
consists of exposed -rock or rock withl'a very thin cover of sediments is
found. Flora in this area consists of Penicillus sp.. ,' Halimeda sp. and
unidentified red algae.
The above described zone grades into a seagrass bed composed of turtlegrass
(Thalassia testudinum)' underlain by six inches to one foot of sediment.
The seagrass bed' continues offshore for some distance and covers the
remainder of the project site.. The depth is approximately 4 ft. MLW.
Construction related activities can hie expected to cause temporary. elevated
levels of turbidity,` particulate organic compounds and -dissolved organic
compounds. Proper use of turbidity curtains should be able to maintain
acceptable water quality.
Construction of the proposed revetment will result in the dsiplacement of
the present biota. The riprap will eventually be colonized by a biota
similar to that presently found on the shoreline. .'In the northeast corner
the small area of unfilled wetlands will be substantially destroyed by 'the
placement of riprap. '
, The estimate of 35 cu...yds.. of ripraph' to cover 250± ft, of shoreline
appears to be-very low. Past experience has indicated that 100 cu. yds.
or more would be necessary on a shoreline of this nature.
Shading from the proposed.doek will tend to result in the elimination of
the vegetation under- it. The four ft. above MHW elimination of the dock
will tend to decrease this problem somewhat. Boats tied up to the dock
may also result in the elimination of seagrass beds, due, to shading. The
extent of this impact is difficult to determine without -any information on
• the boats that will be tied to the dock but it 'could be more extensive than
that caused by the dock itself.
Use of the nearshore area for .lobster' trap storage and related activities
will tend to result in secondary impacts to the adjacent waters. Included
in these impacts are. dischargesof oil from trap dipping practices. A
moderate accumulation of miscellaneous trash has already occurred on the
site and will tend to increase in severity. '

INTRODUCTION: • . i,
This application, which proposes Ito deposit fill below the mean high
water (MHW) line, should be .reviewed by. the' Board of County Commissioners
pursuant to 'Section 19-111(a) (5) of the Monroe County Code.

DISCUSSION:
i.
•
The applicant proposes to constrict a 250±'linear foot riprap seawall for
the purpose of shoreline stabilization. The estimated volume of fill below .
MHW is .30 cubic yards. The- applicant plans to construct a berm immediately .
landward of the proposed seawallland use filter cloth in the seawall, both
of which would decrease erosion and overland runoff into the Gulf of Mexico
. from the upland portions of the_ ste. In addition, the applicant proposes
to construct a 100 linear foot wooden dock with a 40 foot "T".
A site inspection indicated that-there is no shoreline vegetation on the
site except for a .small group oft mangroves at the northeast corner. In •
the intertidal zone, which averages 7 foot in width, there were only scat-
tered. algae. Below, the mean lowltide line there is a dense growth of algae.
• The upland portions of the site- re being used for lobster trap construction,
which has resulted in trash dumping and spills of oil. .
The. attached Florida Department of Environmental Regulation biological
report addresses this proposal. inligreater detail.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Florida Department of Environmental
. Regulation have not issued permits. for this proposal.
EVALUATION: II
Construction of a seawall might improve water quality by decreasing erosion
of unconsolidated marl fill. Use!,of filter cloth and a berm would increase
the effectiveness of the seawall by decreasing pollution from overland runoff
from the lobster trap •operation. TConstruction of the riprap seawall in the
northeast corner of the site where mangroves are present would destroy this.
shoreline vegetation, there is n' other significant shoreline or littoral veg-
etation that would be affected byl,a-seawall along the existing waterline.
