BUTLER, CLERK <br />ATTACHMENT 3 <br />GRANT WORK PLAN <br />PROJECT TITLE: Indian River County Sector 3 Beach and Dune Nourishment Project (Wabasso) <br />PROJECT LOCATION: The Project is located between Department of Environmental Protection <br />(Department or DEP) reference monuments R20 and R55 along the Atlantic Ocean in Indian River County, <br />Florida. <br />PROJECT BACKGROUND: Sector 3 of the Indian River County Beach Preservation Plan consists of <br />the nourishment and maintenance of approximately 6.6 miles of shoreline along the Atlantic Ocean between <br />R20 and R55. The Project was first restored in 3 phases conducted from 2010 to 2012. Additional <br />nourishments were completed in 2013, 2015, and 2022. The Project was impacted by Hurricanes Ian and <br />Nicole in 2022, and the most -recent nourishment was completed in July 2024. The construction project <br />placed approximately 275,000 cubic yards of beach -compatible sand fill and planted 728,633 native dune <br />plants along the 6.6 miles of shoreline from R20 to R55 in Indian River County. The Department's <br />designation of critically eroded shoreline ends at R51.3, so the shoreline outside of this area is not eligible <br />for state cost share. The included funds are for the construction phase that occurred between Fall 2023 and <br />Spring 2024, as well as the immediate post -construction monitoring. <br />PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Project consists of construction. <br />PROJECT ELIGIBILITY: The Department has determined that 100 percent of the non-federal Project <br />cost is eligible for state cost sharing. Therefore, the Department's financial obligation shall not exceed the <br />sum of $3,774,503.51 for this Project or up to 50 percent of the non-federal Project cost, if applicable, for <br />the specific eligible Project items listed, whichever is less. Any indicated federal cost sharing percentage is <br />an estimate and shall not affect the cost sharing percentages of the non-federal share. The parties agree that <br />eligibility for cost sharing purposes will be maintained pursuant to 62B-36, Florida Administrative Code <br />(F.A.C.). <br />The Local Sponsor will be responsible for auditing all travel reimbursement expenses based on the travel <br />limits established in section 112.061, Florida Statute (F.S.). <br />Pursuant to sections 161.091 - 161.161, F.S., the Department provides financial assistance to eligible <br />governmental entities for beach erosion control and inlet management activities under the Florida Beach <br />Management Funding Assistance Program. <br />Pursuant to 62B -36.005(1)(d), F.A.C., the Local Sponsor has resolved to support and serve as local sponsor, <br />has demonstrated a financial commitment, and has demonstrated the ability to perform the tasks associated <br />with the beach erosion control project as described herein. <br />The Project shall be conducted in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth under this Agreement, <br />all applicable Department permits and the eligible Project task items established below. All data collection <br />and processing, and the resulting product deliverables, shall comply with the standards and technical <br />specifications contained in the Department's Monitoring Standards for Beach Erosion Control Projects <br />(2014) and all associated state and federal permits, unless otherwise specified in the approved scope of <br />work for an eligible Project item.
