<br />11.I.1. SAND TRANSFER PLANT FEASIBILITY STUDY - BEACH <br />AND SHORE ADVISORY COMMITTEE – BEACH <br />RESTORATION <br />(CLERK’S NOTE <br />: Due to an outside appointment Commissioner Adams <br />requested this Item be heard following Item 9.A.6. It is placed here for continuity.) <br /> <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Adams, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Macht, to approve <br />staff’s recommendation. <br /> <br />Jonathan Gorham <br />Coastal Resource Manager said this study is intended to provide <br />an independent analysis of the feasibility of constructing and operating a sand transfer system at <br />Sebastian Inlet identifying appropriate designs and construction and operating budgets. <br /> <br />The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the <br />motion carried unanimously. The Board approved the <br />study that is projected to cost approximately $50,000 <br />for the FY 2004/2005 budget process. It is the staff’s <br />position that extensive computer modeling and field <br />surveys should not be performed at this time since the <br />inlet is under the jurisdiction of the Sebastian Inlet Tax <br />District. The District has considered the use of a sand <br />transfer plant and has voiced reservations as to the <br />suitability of such a plant at the Inlet. The Beach <br />Committee desires an independent investigation, all as <br />APRIL 6, 2004 <br />28 <br /> <br /> <br />
