Department of Transportation, Lignum Vitae Channel
(SX1 90060-3531)
Our staff has performed a biological survey for this project
and offers the following comments:
The applicant proposes to construct a 902-foot long by 47-
foot wide bridge across Lignum vitae Channel. t'pproximately
289 cubic yards of fill and rubble -sill be placed on the
south side of the Key Nest approach and 619 cubic yards
of rubble and fill on the south side of the ..iami approach,
both landward and waterward of the mean high water line,
to create the appropriate road slopes. Approximately
345 cubic yards of material will be dredged for piling
installation. Pal recoverable spoil will be placed on
uplands within the Department of Transportation right-of-
way.
The proposed bridge will connect Indian Key fill and Lower
Hatecumbe Key. The uplands of the iatecumbe Key approach
are developed with a Motel and a small business. The
Indian Key fill approach is not developed. The offshore
substrate is sparsely vegetated and is composed of broken
coral pieces, shell and shell fragments, lix-terock and
marl. The .iiami approach is a previously filled area with
concrete slurry slopes, which are slowly eroding because
of the activity in a small boat channel paralleling the
south side of the causeway. marine algae in the fill
area are minimal and are composed primarily of red and
brown algae. The Key West approach was also filled with
concrete slurry. IL:mediately adjacent to this area and
within the submerged land fill section is a moderately
vegetated grass flat of turtle grans.

Filling along the I-fiai-ii approach is ex-oected to result
in a minimal disruption to the area, since the fill will
be placed in a relatively unvegetatod area and will follow
the shoreline. Filling along tae i�ey West approach will
eliminate a small section of the grass flat.
Pursuant to the requirements of ss. 253.124(3), Florida 'tatutes,
the preceding co._-nents should be duly considered by the con mission
and read into the :-inutes- of the meeting; at which ti re a deterni-
nation of local ap- roval is zn.:ade.
