Using results of the field surveys and aerial imagery interpretation, CSA will conduct a Uniform Mitigation Assessment Methodology (UMAM) analysis, pursuant to Chapter 62-345 , F .A. C . The UMAM analysis will include qualitative descriptions of impacted communities and associated ecological functions, and quantitative estimates of the extent of impacts. CSA will confer with FDEP staff during the UMAM analysis to ensure concurrence on the extent of impacts , or absence thereof, attributable to the Sector 3 Project. The UMAM spreadsheets, in addition to supporting documentation, will be provided in hard copy and digital format to the COUNTY for review prior to submittal to FDEP . 10) Data management. All data collected during the project will be incorporated into an Access database or Excel spreadsheets maintained by EAI and/or CSA.
