CB&I will develop an engineering report that discusses the performance of the beach fill project. We will analyze shoreline and volumetric changes throughout the project area, identifying erosion and accretion patterns. The results will be analyzed for patterns, trends or changes between annual surveys as well as cumulatively since construction. The project was constructed in three phases and the analysis will account for the phased construction. Furthermore, the report will compare the project performance to the stated design. Plots of the survey profiles, and graphical representations of volumetric and shoreline positions for the monitoring area will be presented. Summary tables of the shoreline and volumetric changes will be presented, again looking at individual and cumulative shoreline and volumetric changes. Volumetric changes will be calculated above +6.0 feet NAVD; MHW to +6.0 feet, NAVD; -5.0 feet, NAVD to MHW; and -12.0 feet to -5.0 feet, NAVD; and landward of the approximate edge of hardbottom. The volumetric analysis will be performed similar to the 2014 report to avoid introducing error in the calculations due to the nearshore hardbottom. CB&I will collect aerials of the project area as discussed more fully later in this scope of work. The aerials will be collected from R-15 through R-60. Plots of hardbottom change and shoreline position will be overlaid on the aerials and included in the report appendix. The FDEP approved physical monitoring plan permit modification requires that sand samples be collected during summer months coincident with the immediate post -construction monitoring event at four beach profile transects (R-22, R-30, R-41 and R-52). Although sand was only placed between R-24 and R-55 during the Dune Repair Project, all four transects will be sampled and analyzed for completeness and comparison with past data sets. Five samples will be collected and analyzed along each transect (toe of dune, mid -berm, MHW, MLW, and -3 feet, NAVD) for a total of 20 samples analyzed. We understand that Morgan & Eklund will collect these samples and ship them to us for analysis. CB&1 has a certified laboratory required by FDEP standards to analyze beach samples. We will follow the FDEP protocols for sieving the samples using 20 sieves ranging in size from -4.25 phi to +4 phi at 1/2 phi intervals. A cumulative frequency distribution and frequency distribution histogram will be presented along with a sediment analysis summary sheet providing descriptive statistics, compositional results, percent fines and Munsell Color. The grain sizes will be compared to previous sediment samples to gauge any changes in grain size or color. Deliverables CB&I will submit a draft of the report of the County for review and comment. This will be submitted electronically (PDF and MS Word formats). CB&I will incorporate comments from the County and revise the report accordingly. CB&I will then submit an electronic copy to the FDEP. CB&I will submit one hard copy and one electronic copy (PDF) to the County. Required Data To perform the physical monitoring evaluation, CB&I will need the following data: • Survey data in x,y,z format collected in summer of 2015. • Sand samples collected in summer of 2015. • Shape file or Auto CAD file of the landward edge of hardbottom mapped in summer of 2015.
