Hurricanes Ian and Nicole Recovery Plan, December 9, 2022 <br />Based on initial assessments it is uncertain if the project will qualify for FCCE funds as a <br />result of impacts from Hurricane Ian and/or Nicole. <br />Recommend nourishment because of storm induced erosion as needed. Any project <br />related costs on the local sponsor are eligible for cost share with the DEP through the BWA <br />program, LGFR. No non-federal dollars needed outside of normal management programs. <br />III. Summary <br />In total, non-federal funds requested through this Recovery Plan totals $205,471,198.53. <br />Areas without historical engineered and or managed beaches comprise approximately 68% of the <br />total funds. <br />For beaches without prior engineered or managed beaches identified in this plan, initial <br />restoration of the dune or beach should be on a phased approach. Dunes should be restored as an <br />initial restorative and protective measure, and with as minimal regulatory authorizations as <br />necessary. However, a more long-term management strategy should be identified. Detailed <br />planning and engineering tasks may be needed for each new project area to formulate the most <br />cost-effective design, construction, and future management strategies. <br />Existing projects make up the majority of projects requesting recovery funds through the <br />Plan but make up only approximately 32% of the total funds requested. These projects are <br />considered construction ready. <br />Of the 70 areas identified in the Plan, 22 are federally authorized shore protection <br />projects and are eligible for FCCE. To date of this writing, the list of these projects qualifying for <br />FCCE funds is not available. <br />The funds in the is Recovery Plan are requested outside of normal management programs. <br />Page 21 of 21 351 <br />
