40 40 U 4D Technical Approach Page 11 TASK 12 ESTABLISH EROSION CONTROL LINE FOR SECTORS 1.2 AND 3 Prior to the placement of beachfill acquired from sovereignty submerged lands in the state of Florida, the FDEP requires that local interests establish on Erosion Control Line, or ECL, for the shoreline fronting the anticipated limits of sand placement. The line is established in accordance with the provisions Chapter 161.161, Florida Statues. Technical (field) procedures are governed by Chapter 177, Part 11, Florida Statutes, and 18-5 and Chapter 21 HH -6, Florida Administrative Code. The field procedure utilized essentially establishes the position of the pre -project Mean High Water shoreline over the entire project construction boundary, within each sector and along the adjacent non -project shorelines. Timing of the survey is extremely important, as statutory limitations with respect to the elapsed time between field determination of the ECL and project construction are typically enforced by the state of Florida. Based on the above, it appears that the ECL survey should be conducted in late February 2000 to allow adequate time for processing, approvals by the FDEP Division of State Lands, Bureau of Surveying and Mapping, and the Public Hearing and adoption procedures. The state will require the Erosion Control Line position to be transposed onto recent vertical aerial photographs of the respective project site. ATM will coordinate this activity closely with Indian River County. The County's 1999 controlled vertical aerial photography is the expected medium to realize highly accurate conveyance of the Mean High Water position onto mylar for submittal to the state of Florida. Upon submittal of the ECL documentation of the FDEP Bureau of Surveying and Mapping, ATM's experience dictates frequent telephone follow-up with the Title and Land Records Division ensure that processing delays are minimized. ATM shall contact the FDEP to confirm: . Technical sufficiency of the submitted line as surveyed; . Procedural timeframes for approval; . Public notification, scheduling and conduct of the Public Workshop/Hearing; and, . Hearing findings and Report recommending establishment of the ECL (the Hearing Officers Report is prepared within thirty days and is based on public input at and subsequent to the Hearing).

The state permit(s) processing for the project should be nearly completed and anticipated for issuance by the FDEP prior to the Public Workshop and Hearing. Noticing procedures required by the FDEP are well understood and will be strictly followed to the extent the County requires assistance in this regard.
