EXHIBIT A <br />Sector 3 (Wabasso Beach) Beach and Dune Renourishment Project <br />Scope of Services <br />I. PROJECT BACKGROUND <br />As defined in the Indian River County Beach Preservation Plan (2015) the Sector 3 Beach <br />and Dune Restoration Project is located on the east coast of Florida within Indian River <br />County. The northern boundary of the project is located approximately 3.6 miles south <br />of the Sebastian Inlet and extends approximately 6.6 miles between the Florida <br />Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) Reference (R) Monuments R -20-R-55. <br />The Sector 3 project area has been historically erosional and is designated by FDEP (2016) <br />as critically eroded. <br />The project was initially nourished 2010-2012 under FDEP Joint Coastal Permit No. <br />0285993 -001 -JC. A dune repair project was subsequently completed between R-24 and <br />R-55 in 2015 under FDEP Permit Modification No. 085993 -008 -JN following damages <br />sustained during Hurricane Sandy (October 2012). Permit required post construction <br />monitoring has been ongoing since 2010. <br />The Sector 3 Project Area sustained damage from Hurricane Matthew (2016) and is in <br />need of renourishment to maintain protection to upland properties and infrastructure. <br />II. SCOPE OF SERVICE <br />A. Provide professional coastal engineering and biological support services, on an <br />open-end project specific services basis, related to the management and <br />renourishment of the Sector 3 project area. <br />B. A description of the scope of services includes but is not limited to the following: <br />• Expertise in planning, environmental investigation, analysis, and related <br />services in preparing design proposals and permitting for the Sector 3 Beach <br />and Dune Restoration Project. <br />• Feasibility analysis of project alternatives, to include cost—effectiveness, <br />permitability, environmentally conscientiousness, engineering soundness, <br />and constructability. <br />• Identification and documentation of environmental impacts of feasible <br />alternatives (i.e. possible impacts to marine turtle nesting and nearshore <br />hardbottom resources). <br />
