The contract was renewed for an additional two-year term on <br />October 4, 2018. M&E is the selected County Consultant for professional onshore/offshore <br />hydrographic surveying services. <br />The western eyewall of Hurricane Dorian passed approximately 105 miles east of Indian River <br />County on September 3, 2019, with maximum sustained winds of approximately 18-25 mph and <br />maximum recorded gusts of up to 43 mph producing 13-15 foot breaking waves along the coast. <br />As a result of the high surf, approximately 3-10 feet of dune retreat was observed throughout <br />the County shoreline. <br />The proposed Work Order No. 12 provides post Hurricane Dorian beach profile surveys that are <br />necessary to quantify the dune/beach erosion impacts to our County. The results of the survey <br />will also be offered to the Florida Department of Environmental Projection and Federal agencies <br />as documentation of losses. Post storm beach profile surveys may be eligible for FEMA <br />reimbursement if funding becomes available. <br />Work Order No. 12 totals $57,750. <br />FUNDING <br />Funding for this expenditure, totaling $57,750, will be made available in the Beach Restoration <br />Fund/Other Contractual Services/Hurricane Dorian, Account # 12814472-033490-19028. <br />Page 2 <br />C:\Users\legistar\AppData\Local\Temp\BCL Technologies\easyPDF 8\@BCL@FC008655\@BCL@FC0C8655.docx <br />105 <br />
