MAR 101982 NOK -49 PAA 105, Federal officials are aware that the maps which delineate the Undeveloped Coastal Barriers are, in some cases, out dated. On March 15, 1982 an aerial photograph of the -United States Coastline from Maine to Texas will be taken. This will allow the Department of Interior to further document developed or undeveloped areas and also to confirm any comments received which concern the extent of development. The criteria for considering an area developed is basically, if there is greater than one unit per five acres and a full compliment of infrastructure. A full compliment of infra- structure requires that there be vehicle access to each lot or building site plus reasonable availability of some combin- ation of utilities and services such as a water supply, a sewer- age system, and electrical service required to support develop- ment. Ability to use on site wells and/or septic system on each lot or building site, when legally authorized, will consti- tute water supply and sewage infrastructure. The presence of a single road, or even a through highway, plus associated electric transmission and waterlines in this highway corridor (on a Coastal Barrier) does not constitute the necessary full comple- ment of infrastructure necessary to support development. Commitment or legal arrangements necessary for, and leading toward, construction of either structures or infrastructure will not be considered relevant to the development status of Coastal Barriers except to the degree they are actually reflected in the existance of structures or infrastructure on the Coastal Barrier. Within the proposed Undeveloped Coastal Barrier in Indian River County there are several areas which meet or exceed the criteria established in order to be considered developed. These areas are: 1. Ambersand Subdivision - approximately 48 acres divided into 84 lots with + existing structures. Development density is approximately .39 units/acre. Location is Section 33, Township 30S, Range 39E, at the northern end of the designated area. 2. Riverside Estates Subdivision - Approximately 5.82 acres divided into 22 lots with three existing single- family residences. Development density is approxi- mately 1.94 units/acre. Location is Section 36; Towrlship 31S, Range 39E, near the southern end of the designated area. 3. A portion of Johns Island Subdivision - Approximately z65 acres with 117 single family residences. Develop- ment density is approximately .44 units/acre. Location is Section 6, Township 325, Range 40E and Section 1, Township 32S, Range 39E, forming the southern boundary of the designated area. 4. White Surf Subdivision - Approximately 1.77 acres divided into three lots with one single family resi- dence. Location is Section 34, Township 33S, Range 40E, near the St. Lucie County Line. There are no other areas in the proposed Undeveloped Coastal Barriers within Indian River County which meet. the criteria to be considered developed. The designation of other undeveloped areas not included in the proposals should be considered. These areas include:
