relief of the constructed reefs using a fathometer after the reef construction has been completed. 9. Both the GRANTEE and its subcontractor shall have on site current nautical charts of the deployment area, with the permitted site indicated on the chart. The proposed patch reef coordinates and the corner coordinates of the reef site will also be in possession of the GRANTEE's observer and the subcontractor when on site. The GRANTEE's observer shall also be in possession of a copy of the Army Corps permit for the area where the deployments are taking place. The GRANTEE shall be responsible for insuring that all permit condition terms are complied with. 10. The GRANTEE agrees to allow the COMMISSION to conduct on-site inspections of the saltwater artificial fishing reef project before, during, and after the deployment. ALLOWABLE EXPENDITURES ASSOCIATED WITH THE REEF PROJECT H . Funds from this Agreement may be expended on the activities listed pursuant to Chapter 68E-9. 004(1 )(a), F.A.C. 12 . If the GRANTEE chooses to conduct a post-deployment SCUBA assessment at each patch reef (this is not required, but is an eligible activity under Chapter 68E-9 . 004( 1 )(a), F.A.C.), in order to be eligible for reimbursement work must be completed prior to June 30, 2007 and the following items, at a minimum, must be included : a. methods: name and type of vessel, anchored or live boated, type of GPS unit(s), divers, survey methods; b . conditions : cloud cover, wind speed and direction, sea conditions, visibility, water temperature, currents; c. chronology: start and end of each dive; dive profile: dive plan , maximum depth, dive time, distance and bearing searched; d. Coordinates: Describe the GPS unit(s) used to navigate to the site (model number) . Describe whether differential, WAAS, and/or LORAN. Compare the dive locations to deployment location numbers. How well do they match the published numbers? e. Physical observations : Describe the number and size of material observed within each patch reef. What is the proximity of concrete pieces or modules to each other. What percent material was damaged or partially damaged? What is the maximum and minimum relief of the site? How do these observations compare to the Material Placement Report Form information submittal? f. Footprint area : Measure the approximate total area covered by each patch reef through standard in situ survey practices . g. Biological observations: Describe any fish observed, or other general biological observations. h. Video and photographs : Provide still and/or video footage of each of the eight patch reefs (digital format preferred when available). Page 3 of 5, Attachment A
