Davis, P.E., REFERENCES: <br />Public Works Director <br />DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITIONS <br />The Scenic Trails Committee (Mrs. Ruth Stanbridge, Chairman), the Public Works <br />Division staff, and Richard Van Slyke, Florida Land Co. have recently investigated <br />alternative methods for stablizing the east bank of the Indian River along <br />Jungle Trail, most specifically at the River Bend area south of CR 510. Since <br />severe erosion due to boat wake has occurred at this location, corrective <br />action needs to be considered immediately. <br />ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />Investigation of the shoreline stabilization methods have produced the following <br />alternatives: <br />Alternative No. 1 <br />Authorize the Engineering Department to apply for DER/Corps. of Engineers <br />dredge and fill permits to stabilize a 150 ft. to 250 ft. long test section <br />of shoreline with an erosion control product of the Armorflex, Terrafix, or <br />similar such brand. In communications with Engineered Systems and Services, <br />Inc.(ESS) of Boca Raton, Florida, the Scenic Trails Committee and Public Works <br />Division have determined that such a method would probably be the most effective, <br />environmentally safe for plant and animal species, and cost effective. The <br />cost of the project should be approximately $4.00 per square foot. It is <br />anticipated that a 200 lineal foot section be constructed for approximately <br />$10,000. Funding can be considered at a later date after permits are obtained, <br />probably from Road and Bridge Division currently budgeted funds such as the <br />Road and Bridge Materials account. <br />9x 52 ��b� <br />D E C 15 1982 66 <br />
