It is assumed that endangered and threatened species surveys are not required for the project; however, the COUNTY (Engineering staff) will coordinate with the Indian River County Environmental office to obtain existing information on endangered and threatened species surveys. This existing information will be included in the project environmental assessment report, to be completed by the COUNTY. 2. Mitigation Should the result of the above work effort require mitigation, the COUNTY will only advance that work, should it be necessary. The mitigation effort may include: the need to perform a functional analysis of the impacts, using the Uniform Mitigation Assessment Methodology, and the preparation of specific data sheets for the US Army Corps of Engineers for each determined wetland area of impact; the preparation of an Environmental Resource Permit Application; and meeting with the US Army Corps of Engineers to resolve comments associated with the permit application; and special attention and consideration will be given to avoid potential impacts to wood stork core foraging areas. P. Project Coordination/Administration During the course of the project, the ENGINEER is required to coordinate with the COUNTY. This coordination is in the form of correspondence, including electronic mail, telephone conferences, meetings, documentation of meetings and responding to requests, on behalf of the COUNTY. In the original and supplemental agreements to date, this particular effort was not separated by any tasks. However, this Supplemental Agreement No. 4 will address this effort to be included with the Roadway Design item. This request is required due to several significant factors contributing to project delays that have been no fault of the ENGINEER, or the COUNTY. The delays arose: from outside sources that needed to supply plans; right-of-way information; and individual coordination with multiple property owners. The coordination with property owners included correspondence, evaluating requests from property owners' Engineers, meeting with property owners and providing specific information to assist in the evaluation of project impacts. In addition, the ENGINEER attended a meeting with FDOT to address the CR -510 and US -1 intersection. Also, additional information was gathered and collected to assist the COUNTY and their Consultant in preparation of completing the Project Development and Environmental document.
