BACKGROUND RECITALS A . Indian River County maintains beach dune systems along the 22 miles of Indian River County Atlantic Ocean shoreline . As a result of the historic 2004 hurricane season , Indian River County received direct impacts from Hurricanes Frances and Jeanne causing severe beach erosion countywide . B . Indian River County currently has a permitted Sectors 1 &2 beach restoration project that extends from DNR monuments R-4 through and including R- 17 and encompasses parts of the Sebastian Inlet State Recreation Area and the Ambersand subdivision (" Project") . The beach and dune system of Indian River County located within the limits of the Project experienced a documented volumetric loss of approximately 290 , 000 cubic yards of sand attributable to the 2004 hurricanes and are in need of sand restoration . C . Indian River County has received a commitment from the Federal Emergency Management Agency ( FEMA) to fund the replacement of 241 , 650 cubic yards of sand to replace the documented storm losses to the Project ( FEMA Project Worksheet IRC- 002 - BG , Declaration No . 1545 DR- FL) . The estimated cost of the Project in the FEMA Project Worksheet is $6 , 080 , 308 . 75 . The actual cost of the Project is to be determined by competitive bid . Project costs are to be divided as follows : FEMA ( 90 % ) ; the State of Florida ( 5 % ) ; and the local entity ; that is , Indian River County , ( 5 % ) . D . The District is authorized by Chapter 2003- 373 , a Special Act of the Florida Legislature to construct , improve , widen or deepen , and maintain the Sebastian Inlet . Specifically , the District obtains a portion of the beach compatible material from dredging of the " sand trap " located within the Sebastian Inlet . In addition , the District is mandated by Florida Statutes section 161 . 042 to place all beach compatible materials derived from dredging the Sebastian Inlet on the downdrift beaches of Indian River County , including the area of the Project . E . The District has conducted surveys that show that the sand trap area requires dredging at this time and that approximately 100 , 000 cubic yards of beach compatible materials are available and recoverable . 1
