(approximately 300 yards) he noted no appreciable amount of grasses, but found some clumps of grasses south of their property (approximately 200- 300 yards). North to the section of mangroves that sticks out east of Jungle Trail, he found no grasses.of any kind; he said it was a sterile bottom, heavily scorned, with a lot of wind action in there. Mr. Beindorf then pointed out the advantages of the location to the Board. He said the fact that he had read in the paper, or heard that a long channel had to be dredged and that just wasn't true. The Intra -Coastal Waterway was close at this point. He stated he had serious doubts they would find much of a shell fish bed there due to the boat traffic and all, and the deep water that exists along this shoreline. Going back to the first site plan and talking a little about what they proposed to do, Mr. Beindorf said the plan was a little over 8_ acres in size (from the outside property line, all the way to the Indian River shoreline), Within this site, they proposed to accom- modate boats from 30 feet in length, to 40-45 feet in length. The depth., was proposed for the sail boats anticipated in this area. They devised the plan that had good protection. They felt the existing shoreline would be very protected and that came about through meetings with the Planning staff. Mr. Beindorf said the County Engineer needed more infor- mation on shoreline protection (types) and noted the only thingspresent there now were mangroves. N-. Mr. Beindorf said the interior shoreline, within the marina itself, would Ve sloping banks and not vertical banks, with shore -- line protection. The dock (fuel) would have a vertical wall right next to it. He said the ability to construct a marina, because of.the limited access and a 42" culvert (which, by the way is being proposed by Dr. Chris- tensen from the original 24") allows that area to be completely excavated, material fall off and be deposited, and the plug would be the last thing that would be constructed before the bridge would be built. Mr. Beindorf stated they tried to design a system where they did shade long dock tra- dition to the shoreline to destruct any future grasses which might grow along the river bank. OAfter the DER frowned upon that, we know it, and tried to eliminate that': Mr. Beindorf again stated the design was a good one. The layout would accommodate the private type of yacht basin and should be an easy one to service. If there would be a any spills, such as fuel, you must have an emergency fuel -spill program in order to obtain rmi BON PACE JAN 2 71992
