40 • J Technical Approach ® Page 13 ATM, working with Indian River County Real Estate and Surveying staff and the County Attorney and legal staff, will acquire all construction easements for the Indian River Nourishment Projects. ATM will prepare a draft cover letter and sample easement agreement for review and subsequent final changes to be made and utilized by the County Attorney in County mail -out of the easement documents. A map of the project with the easement areas will be prepared, which will require print detail at each affected parcel. No difficulty is anticipated in conjunction with acquiring construction or consent of use easements for this project. With our experience on other beach restoration projects in Florida, it is probable that certain property owners in the project area may voice concern and/or objection over granting such easements. It is often helpful (and sometimes necessary) to provide assistance to the private landowners through meetings with County staff and/or key community members. For costing purposes, it is assumed that ten (10) percent of the affected property owners (approximately 15 parcels) will dictate laying construction stakes (hubs or lath) marked with ribbon on oceanfront parcels. This initial effort will allow the private property owners to better visualize the land areas that will be occupied by the granted easement(s). Education of the public and the affected private property owners expedites the easement acquisition process. Depending on the actual level of individual and/or public education efforts required, an additional services scope and budget authorization might be necessary for this item. TASK 14 CONTRACT PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR SECTORS Task 14.1 Beach and Borrow Area Surveys Upon final acquisition of permits to construct the project, ATM shall conduct a detailed beach profile and hydrographic survey of the beachfill areas in Sectors 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Survey detail of the borrow area from the Phase I services should be sufficient for bidder and (subsequent) contractor planning and baseline condition and will further allow for accurate borrow area horizontal and vertical cut boundaries and cross sectional views of the proposed cuts. Beach profile surveys shall be conducted within the beachfill and adjacent shoreline monitoring areas (as determined by the regulatory agencies — assumed to be consistent with the existing limits of monitoring required following the initial restoration project) to establish the pre -construction (baseline) condition of the shoreline. From this base, planform and profile modifications as may be dictated by the agencies in their requirements for environmental resource prof action can be accurately performed. Task 14.2 Vertical Aerial Photography Controlled (rectified) vertical aerial photography will be performed to serve as a base illustration for computer-generated overlay of the final beachfill design planform. Ground targets will be established at the appropriate intervals to ensure that photo images can i.ic fully ICGllll@ll .7l $ riiiai (worKing) scale of 1' = IOU, Aefiai photography shall be obtained on a clear day, free of cloud cover or haze, and shall be conducted in late morning hours to avoid building or other structural shadows being cast toward the
