DeBlois, AICP Chief, Environmental Planning & Code Enforcement Section Indian River County 1801 27th Street Vero Beach, FL 32960-3388 RE: Head Island Channel Restoration Dear Mr. DeBlois, Per your request I have reviewed the project as it relates to construction costs. Because there is not enough upland area on the dikes to dispose of the material generated on site it will be necessary to remove the material by truck. I have coordinated with a local contractor in an effort to determine the most economical methods and to estimate the cost to complete the project. The methodology would include the loading of dump trucks on-site and delivering the material to a site off of the island. This will necessitate running approximately 100+ Toads of material on Island Drive and then onto SR AIA. Careful measures will need to be taken to protect Island Drive pavement. The estimate is based on close coordination with local equipment operators and trucking companies and takes into consideration existing site conditions and methodologies. Estimated costs are as follows: 1. Excavation and trucking $ 80,000 2. Mobilization, turbidity barriers, maintenance of traffic and hand work $ 30,000 3. Demobilization, restoration, and clean up $ 17,000 Total $127,000 Your budget number for project management, engineering, and contingencies could remain unchanged at $18,000. Thank you and I trust this information is helpful in your analysis. If you have any questions or need any additional information please do not hesitate to contact me. \12-011\channel restore est 030415 ATTACHMENT 4 196
