F. The District has constructed a Dredged Material Management Area (DMMA) for stockpiling both beach compatible sand and non -beach compatible sand material. The District and County desire to coordinate on the appropriate use of DMMA material in public works type projects with a corresponding public benefit. G. The County and the District regularly collect data on the coastal system such as: hydrographic survey, geotechnical survey, biological monitoring, aerial photography, etc. The County and the District desire to share data for permitting purposes, management plan modification and analysis and understanding of the coastal system. Coordination between coastal engineering consultants will benefit both the County and the District. H. Florida Statutes Chapter 163 known as the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act of 1969, provides a method for governmental entities such as the County and the District to cooperate with each other on a basis of mutual advantage to provide services and facilities in a manner that will accord best with the factors influencing the needs and development of local communities. Also, Florida Statute 189.4221 allows the District to purchase commodities and certain contractual services from purchasing agreements of the County which have been procured by a process that would have met the procurement requirements of the District. This arrangement also known as piggy -backing. NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, and intending to be legally bound, the County and District agree as follows: 1. Background Recitals. The background recitals are true and correct and form a material part of this Agreement. 2. Coordination. Inlet sediment bypassing, supplemental downdraft nourishment, and related activities of the District shall be carried out in close cooperation with Indian River County and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. All parties desire to mitigate downdrift erosion, promote public use and protect natural resources through their respective management plans. Accordingly, FDEP states, in some cases, beach nourishment projects adjacent to inlets have mitigated some or all of the inlet effects (FDEP, Annual Inlet Report, August 2024). 3. Sand Bypassing. District desires to transfer sand to the downdrlft beaches. The primary placement location for material from the sand trap and alternate sources shall be on the downdraft beach, north of R-17 and within the permit approved Sector 1 and 2 project template. The timing and placement of supplemental material and inlet sand bypassing shall be coordinated with Indian River County to reduce the frequency of County beach nourishment placement in that region. A figure identifying the location of the sediment bypassing template (Sectors 1 & 2) is attached as Exhibit 1 and incorporated by reference herein.
