S, K. <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA <br />BOARD MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Jason E. Brown <br />County Administrator <br />THROUGH: Richard B. Szpyrka, P.E. <br />Public Works Director <br />FROM: James D. Gray, Jr. <br />Natural Resources Manager <br />SUBJECT: Work Order No. 5 Morgan & Eklund, Inc. <br />2018 Beach Profile Monitoring Surveys (WINTER) <br />DATE: February 1, 2018 <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />On October 4, 2016, the Board approved a contract with Morgan and Eklund, Inc. (M&E) for <br />Professional Land Surveying and Mapping Services for a two-year term. The Board amended the <br />Contract on October 18, 2016. M&E is the selected County Consultant for professional <br />onshore/offshore hydrographic surveying services. <br />The County's Beach Preservation Plan recommends semiannual beach profile surveys in order to <br />monitor the seasonal, summer and winter, fluctuations of the beach. The proposed Work Order <br />No. 5 provides winter -time countywide hydrographic surveying (beach profile) services as part of <br />the County's beach monitoring program. <br />All onshore and offshore beach profile surveys are conducted along The Florida Department of <br />Environmental Protection (FDEP) Range Monuments at approximately 1,000 foot intervals <br />(alongshore) and extend from the vegetated dune seaward to a location approximately -40 feet <br />offshore (crosshore). <br />Work Order No. 5 totals a lump sum amount of $55,000. <br />Please note: <br />The Sebastian Inlet District (District), as part of their Inlet Management Plan, conducts <br />semiannual beach profile surveys along the northern 5.6 miles of the County. The District <br />continues to partner with the County and has agreed to provide their certified 2018 beach profile <br />survey data (winter and summer) to the County, resulting in a complete 22.4 mile countywide <br />(semiannual) beach profile survey and a combined annual savings of approximately $35,000 to <br />the County. <br />C:\Users\legistar\AppData\Local\Temp\BCL Technologies\easyPDF 191 <br />8\@BCL@4COD31 DD\@BCL@4COD31 DD.docx <br />
