Ecological Associates, Inc.—Scope of Work and Cost Proposal 2 <br /> Task 2: Project Management <br /> An EAI project manager will oversee all fieldwork and data management operations, <br /> participate in weekly check-in meetings with APTIM/Indian River County,and consult <br /> with APTIM on permit requirements,as necessary.A project schedule, as well as field <br /> survey schedules,will be created and maintained throughout the life of the project.All <br /> equipment and supplies necessary to successfully implement this Scope of Work are <br /> available. <br /> Task 3: Daily Sea Turtle Monitoring and Data Management (FDEP Specific <br /> Condition 15) <br /> Beginning on March 1,2022,EAI will conduct daily morning sea turtle nesting surveys <br /> of the Project and Reference Areas. Surveys will continue through November 11,2022 <br /> or until two(2)weeks without a crawl in the Project Area,whichever is earlier. If there <br /> is a two-week period where no crawls are documented in the Project Area, EAI will <br /> request a waiver from the USFWS and FWC to discontinue daily monitoring. If <br /> permission is granted, EAI will then perform surveys three days per week to monitor <br /> marked nests. <br /> Surveys will commence within 30 minutes of sunrise. Monitoring will be performed <br /> by EAI staff either on foot or using ATVs. All emergences (turtle crawls) apparent <br /> from the previous night will be interpreted to determine which species of turtle came <br /> ashore and whether or not it nested. Crawls will be denoted as being above or below <br /> the previous high tide line. The approximate geographic location of each crawl will be <br /> determined by GPS(sub-meter accuracy).In addition to segregating crawls into nesting <br /> and non-nesting emergences (false crawls), each false crawl will be assigned to one of <br /> the following categories denoting the stage at which the nesting attempt was <br /> abandoned: no digging, abandoned body pit, or abandoned egg cavity. Any obstacles <br /> encountered by turtles during their crawls will be documented. <br /> Disorientation Reporting. During the course of daily monitoring, any evidence of <br /> hatchling misorientation or disorientation from either marked or unmarked nests will <br /> be documented using FWC's electronic Marine Turtle Hatchling Disorientation <br /> Incident Report Form. Based on track evaluations, an estimate of the number of <br /> hatchlings disoriented will be recorded and light sources potentially responsible for the <br /> disorientation identified. Information concerning each incident will be forwarded by <br /> email to Indian River County on a weekly basis so appropriate remedial action may be <br /> taken. <br /> Stranding and Salvage. A requirement of FWC sea turtle permit holders conducting <br /> nesting surveys is to respond to the stranding of sick, injured, and dead sea turtles <br /> within their survey area. These animals are examined,and if alive,transported to state- <br /> approved care facilities. A standard Sea Turtle Stranding and Salvage data form will <br /> be completed and submitted for each stranded animal encountered by EAI. This <br /> information will be transmitted to FWC in accordance with established guidelines. <br />
