All tasks identified in this section will be conducted in the winter season prior to project construction and semi-annually thereafter. Winter sampling will be conducted in the period from November through February and summer sampling will be conducted in the period from June through August. The monitoring data shall be collected as close as practical to the same dates each year. There will be a total of six (6) monitoring events as follows: Winter 2002-2003 Summer 2003 Winter 2003-2004 Summer 2004 Winter 2004-2005 Summer 2005 2. Three additional transects will be added to the six proposed in the Monitoring Plan, for a total of nine transects. Anew transect will be established at R49, which in conjunction with the existing transect at R-22 will be designated as downdrift transects. The existing transect at R-25 and two additional transects at R33 and R-34 will be designated as control transects. The additional transects will be sampled on the same schedule as the other transects, with the exception that the initial sampling of these additional transects will occur concurrent with project construction. Section 3 . 1 . 1 Sessile Reef Biota 3 . In conjunction with the qualitative videography to be collected along each of the transects, video footage will be collected in a manner that will allow for quantitative measurement of percent cover of reef biota. On each transect, two twenty-meter (20 m) segments in the vicinity of the photoquadrat stations will be sampled by the following technique: • The observer will swim at a constant elevation of 45 to 50 cm above the substrate and film vertically while swimming at a very slow rate of forward progress along the full extent of the 20 m segment • The resulting video images will be analyzed digitally to provide estimates of percent cover of algae and total percent cover. A revised Plan reflecting the above changes (which will include revisions to the report text, tables and figures where appropriate) will be provided to the Bureau of Beaches and Wetland Resources on or before Friday, February 14, 2003 .

S . Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to construct a beach restoration project along 13 ,280 feet of County shoreline, identified in project documents as Sectors 1 & 2 (Applied Technology and Management, Inc . , 2001 ) . The Biological Monitoring Plan (Plan) includes provisions for monitoring and impact assessment of the project on marine turtle nesting, marine turtle foraging, and nearshore reef habitats . A section on physical monitoring of project impacts with the potential to affect biological resources (i. e. , turbidity, sand compaction, and beach scarp formation) is also included. The Plan is divided into sections addressing Onshore, Nearshore, and Offshore Monitoring. Onshore Monitoring includes marine turtle nesting surveys , sediment compaction measurements, and escarpment formation monitoring. Included in Nearshore Monitoring are assessments of the extent, condition and biota of nearshore hardbottom reefs, studies of marine turtle foraging habitat utilization, and turbidity monitoring during project construction. Offshore Monitoring consists of turbidity monitoring in the vicinity of the borrow area background and compliance stations during active dredging associated with the project construction. The Plan includes a proposed reporting schedule, complete with a tabular summary of the specific monitoring activity, frequency of occurrence, the number of stations, and variables measured with each event. For transect monitoring, the orientation, length and location of the transects are additionally provided in both tabular and graphic format. Finally, the Plan references relevant literature utilized in the development of specific elements of the Plan. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS ■ EXECUTIVESUMMARY . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . i 1 . 0 INTRODUCTION . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 2 . 0 ONSHORE MONITORING . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .4 2 . 1 Sediment Compaction Monitoring" . , 000 6 " o . . . . . .

Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to construct a beach restoration project along 13 ,280 feet of County shoreline, identified in project documents as Sectors 1 & 2 (Applied Technology and Management, Inc . , 2001 )(Figure 1 ) . The Biological Monitoring Plan includes provisions for monitoring and impact assessment of the project on marine turtle nesting, foraging, and nearshore reef habitats . A section on physical monitoring of project impacts with the potential to affect biological resources (i. e . , turbidity, sand compaction, and beach scarp formation) is also included. Elements in this plan include physical monitoring of sand compaction, scarp formation, Iand turbidity. The plan also contains marine turtle monitoring, including both nesting and hatching success and evaluations of foraging habitat utilization. Nearshore reef monitoring will include assessments of both sessile reef fauna and fish communities. Locations for monitoring activities proposed in this plan are referenced to FDEP reference monuments, the locations of which are provided in Table 1 . The plan is divided into sections on Onshore Monitoring, Nearshore Monitoring, and Offshore Monitoring. Onshore monitoring includes marine turtle nesting surveys, sediment compaction monitoring, and escarpment formation monitoring . Included in Nearshore Monitoring are efforts to determine the extent, condition and biota of nearshore hardbottom reefs, monitoring along the Toe of Fill (TOF) and pipeline corridor(s), studies of marine turtle foraging habitat utilization, and turbidity monitoring during project construction. Offshore monitoring consists of turbidity monitoring in the vicinity of the borrow area during construction.

Monitoring for compaction and escarpment formation will be conducted in I accordance with the terms and conditions of the U. S . Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) Biological Opinion, and will include three years of post-construction monitoring. Also included are proposed provisions for monitoring and evaluating the effects of the proposed project on marine turtle nesting levels and reproductive success . 2 . 1 Sediment Compaction Monitoring Sediment compaction monitoring will be conducted in accordance with the conditions contained in DEP permit No . 0166929-001 -JC and the USFWS Biological Opinion issued for this project. Immediately following the completion of construction; the contractor will be required to till the entire area of fill to a depth of 36 inches , avoiding any sea turtle nests that may have been marked for avoidance . Prior to March 1 of the Ifollowing two years, the protocol outlined below will be followed. Sediment shearing resistance (compaction) [see Nelson, et al . ( 1987) for review] will be Imeasured with a Florida Department of Transportation proving ring penetrometer fitted with a 0 . 2 square inch cone. Compaction will be recorded as the force in pounds per square inch (PSI) required to penetrate 15 cm of sediment with the application of a steady pressure. The protocol for compaction monitoring shall be mutually agreeable to FDEP , USFWS , the Florida Fish and Wildlife . Conservation Commission (FWC) , and the County. At a minimum, the protocol will include the following measures : I Compaction sampling stations shall be located at 500-foot intervals along project the ' ect area. One station shall be at the seaward edge of the dune/bulkhead line (when material ' is placed in this area) and one station shall be midway between the dune line and the high water line (normal wrack line) . IAt each station, the cone penetrometer shall be pushed to a depth of 6 , 12 , and 18 inches three times (three replicates) . Material may be removed from the hole if necessary to I ensure accurate readings of successive levels of sediment. The penetrometer may need to be reset between pushes , especially if sediment layering exists . Layers of highly compact material may lay over less compact layers . Replicates shall be located as close to each I other as possible, without interacting with the previous hole and/or disturbed sediments . The three replicate compaction values for each depth shall be averaged to produce final values for each depth at each station. Reports shall include all 18 values for each transect line , and the final 6 averaged compaction values . If mean sand compaction values at any depth exceed 500 PSI in two or more adjacent stations in any project sector, tilling will be undertaken (outside the nesting season and following consultation with regulatory agencies) to reduce compaction levels . If values exceeding 500 psi are distributed throughout the project area but in no case do those 4 values exist at two adjacent stations at the same depth, then consultation with the FWC shall be required to determine if tilling is required. If a few values exceeding 500 psi are present randomly within the project area, tilling shall not be required .

Immediately following the completion of construction, . the contractor will be required to level all scarps occurring in the project area. Subsequent to construction, Surveys for escarpment formation will be conducted according to the following protocol : Visual surveys for escarpments along the beach fill area shall be made immediately after completion of the beach nourishment project and prior to March 1 for the following three years if placed sand still remains on the beach. All scarps shall be leveled or the beach profile shall be reconfigured to minimize scarp formation. In addition, weekly surveys of the project area shall be conducted during the two nesting seasons following completion of fill placement as follows . The number of escarpments and their location relative to DNR-DEP reference monuments shall be recorded during each weekly survey and reported relative to the length of the beach surveyed (e. g. , 50% scarps) . Notations on the height of these escarpments shall be included (0 to 2 feet, 2 to 4 feet, and 4 feet or higher) as well as the maximum height of all escarpments . Escarpments that interfere with sea turtle nesting or that exceed 18 inches in height for a distance of 100 feet shall be leveled to the natural beach contour by April 15 . Any escarpment removal shall be reported relative to R-monument. If weekly surveys during the marine turtle nesting season document subsequent reformation of escarpments that exceed 18 inches in height for a distance of 100 feet, the FWC shall be contacted immediately to determine the appropriate action to be taken. Upon notification, the permittee shall level escarpments in accordance with mechanical methods prescribed by the FWC . 2 . 3 Marine Turtle Nesting Monitoring In accordance with conditions contained in DEP permit No . 0166929-001 -JC, nesting monitoring will be conducted. Nesting levels, nesting success, and reproductive success will be measured. Marine turtle nesting studies will be conducted for three years post-construction. An unambiguous assessment of project effects on sea turtle nesting requires both pre- and post-project data as well as treatment and control data. This approach allows for project effects to be more easily distinguished from natural background variability. The Sector 1 & 2 project area is included in the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWCC) Index Nesting Beach Survey (INBS) program, as are adjacent beaches that will provide , suitable control data. Therefore, there is reliable data for use as controls, both pre- and post-project in Sectors 1 & 2 and inside Sector 1 & 2 versus INBS 8 segments outside the project area. For this reason, pre-construction monitoring and monitoring of a separate control area will not be necessary for an assessment of the effects of the project on nesting levels and nesting success . There is also sufficient hatch success data available for the area to establish a baseline against which to evaluate potential project effects on hatching success. Changes in emergence and nesting levels, and nesting success (the proportion of emergences that culminate in nests) will be assessed by daily nesting surveys of project area beaches . Survey areas will be patrolled every morning during the nesting season, and all crawls will be counted, identified to species, and classified as a nesting or non- nesting emergence (Schroeder and Murphy in Eckert et al. , 1999) . Project area beach segments will be divided into 1000-foot long survey zones referenced to FDEP beach monuments . Starting and ending dates for surveying will be established so as to allow direct comparisons with existing nesting survey data in the County. Nesting levels (nests per 1000 feet) and nesting success (nests/total emergences) will be calculated separately for each 1000 foot survey zone. Mean nesting success and mean nesting levels will be statistically compared between pre- and post-construction years in project and control areas using ANOVA. Calculations will be performed separately for each species, with the understanding that green turtle and leatherback data may not be sufficient for statistical analysis . Reproductive success will be evaluated by examining the nest contents of a representative sample of in-situ nests. All nest excavation and handling and release of live hatchlings shall be in accordance with FWCC guidelines. Expected nesting levels will be used to design a random selection method resulting in a minimum of 50 nests selected for hatching success evaluation. Effort will be made to insure that samples are representative of the entire beach and the entire nesting season. In evaluating reproductive success, nest contents will be assigned to one of the following categories : hatched egg, unhatched egg, pipped egg (live hatchling), pipped egg (dead hatchling) , live hatchling, and dead hatchling. Hatching success will be calculated as the percentage of eggs from a clutch producing hatchlings that successfully freed themselves from the egg [(hatched eggs/total clutch size) x 100%] . Emerging success is the percentage of the clutch producing hatchlings that successfully emerged from the nest { [hatched eggs — (live + dead hatchlings remaining in nest) / total clutch size] x 100% } . Reproductive success indices will be statistically compared to available control data using ANOVA to detect significant differences among means in sample groups in both project and control areas . In conjunction with daily turtle nesting surveys, we would suggest that USFWS and FWCC consider relocation of turtle nests laid in areas of the restored beach that are highly susceptible to being lost to erosion. As restored beaches equilibrate in the first year following construction, nests laid in the seaward portions of the beach berm are very vulnerable to being washed out. A recent comprehensive study of a beach restoration project in Martin County (Ecological Associates, Inc. 1999) identified such erosional losses as a major and easily preventable impact. Relocation would be restricted to the first nesting season following construction in the project area, and only nests deemed highly vulnerable would be relocated. All relocations will be conducted in accordance 9 with FWCC guidelines. Nests would be located to a nearbynatural beach area and hatch tch success data calculated on all relocated nests . The applicant would be willing to undertake such a program at the request of the agencies. 3 .0 NEARSHORE MONITORING Included in this Section are plans for monitoring and assessing the effects of the proposed project on the nearshore environment. Nearshore hardbottom reefs will be monitored for changes in both sessile reef biota and fish populations . Monitoring for potential effects of the proposed project on the utilization of nearshore foraging habitats by marine turtles is Ialso included, as is a program to provide data on the distribution and seasonality of marine turtles in the nearshore environment countywide. Also included in this Section are plans for the monitoring of turbidity levels in the project area during construction, as turbidity is the primary physical parameter expected to impact marine habitats . Monitoring to evaluate the extent of the Toe of Fill (TOF) as compared to predictions is also included in this Section. 3 . 1 Nearshore Hardbottom Monitoring IA monitoring program will be undertaken to determine possible effects of the project on the sessile plant and animal communities of nearshore reefs and also the fish populations that inhabit the reefs . Sampling will include pre- and post-construction monitoring in the project areas and concurrent sampling of control sites . Monitoring will be conducted in the summer following project construction and for two subsequent years, for a total of three years of post-construction monitoring 3 . 1 . 1 Sessile Reef Biota lSessile reef biota will be censused along four shore perpendicular transects in the project area and two similar transects in an appropriate control area. Each transect will extend 2000 feet seaward from a FDEP beach monument along the established profile azimuths, or past the offshore extent of nearshore reef habitat, whichever is less . Proposed locations for nearshore hardbottom monitoring transects are shown in Table 2 and Figure 3 . Three stations will be located on each transect. Stations will be located in reef habitat in the inner, middle, and outer thirds of each transect. Each station will consist of two permanent 0 . 5 square meter photoquadrats . Two steel pins will be driven into the rock at each quadrat to precisely locate the quadrat frame, and photoquadrat sites will be benchmarked using GPS equipment with sub-meter accuracy. The inner station will be located in the vicinity of the predicted position of the ETOF in the project area transects, and at an equivalent position in the control area transects . At least one station on each will be located in each of the reef habitat types identified in the Environmental Assessment. Additional stations will be added to transects if needed to represent all reef habitat types . 10 IIn order to minimize confounding variables, an effort will be made to collect data in the same month of each monitoring year. Project effects will be separated from naturally occurring variation by concurrent sampling along control transects as outlined below . Sampling will be conducted annually, including a pre-construction sample, a sample in the summer immediately following construction, and for two subsequent summers . Invertebrate and algal abundance will be evaluated from digital photography of each quadrat. Species will be identified to the lowest practical taxon and ranked in order of abundance. Superimposing a grid over the digital image and counting bare and colonized grid squares or the use of a random-dot technique will assess overall percent cover (Bohnsack, 1979) . A total of 24 photoquadrats will thus be used to characterize reef I biota in the project area (two photo-quadrats per station, three stations per transect, four } transects) . Twelve photoquadrats will be used to evaluate the area downdrift of the project area (two photoquadrats per station, three stations per transect, two transects) . Species richness, total percent cover, and community structure (rank orders of species abundance) will be compared in the project area pre- and post-construction and between project and control reef areas . Additionally, the standing crop biomass of algae and invertebrates will be assessed at each photoquadrat station on the same schedule as the photoquadrat assessment above. At each station, a 1 Ox l Ocm plot will be identified and all materiel (Invertebrates, algae, and sediment) scraped from the surface. This may be accomplished in the field or by collection of an appropriate sized sample . The resulting materiel will then be sorted to the highest taxonomic level practical and dried to a constant weight. Measuring the relief at each of the photoquadrat stations will assess changes in vertical relief possibly caused by sand movement. Measurements will be taken with a weighted flexible tape from a point one meter shoreward of the quadrat benchmark to the surface of the water and from the top of the reef structure at the benchmark to the surface of the water, with the difference being the relief. The mean of five such measurements will be used to assess changes in relief. Changes in relief at the control reef photoquadrat stations will be assessed by the same method. Concurrent with each photoquadrat sampling, underwater video footage will be collected along the length of each transect. This footage will provide a qualitative overview of conditions in both construction and control areas . . 11 f L �tu 11 q Ir�p LL It r] 1 t Lj ' `yY'�x �yAAAe 15 . t Slrsi �d .

The point-count method (Bohnsack and Bannerot 1986) will be used for fish assessment. This method has the advantage of gathering quantitative data in a relatively short time in a very repeatable pattern that is relatively insensitive to differences in habitat structure. Each census will have duration of 5 minutes and a radius (the distance from the stationary observer) of 10 feet. Four point counts will be collected in the vicinity of the photoquadrat stations at R- 8 , R42, and R- 16 . A complete fish census will thus consist of 36 five-minute counts in the project area and 24 in the control area. All counts may be lumped together to compare fish populations overall between the project and control areas, or data may be separated by position along the transects (inner, middle, and outer) to determine the offshore extent (if any) of project effects . Data from these types of censuses are rarely normally distributed, so the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum or a similar nonparametric test will be used for significance testing. 3 .2 Marine Turtle Foraging Habitat Monitoring The effects of beach restoration projects on marine turtle foraging habitat have never before been addressed, although foraging turtles and their habitat are widely distributed in the nearshore environment. This section of the proposed Plan will directly address the effects of the proposed project in Sectors 1 and 2 on , the abundance of juvenile green turtles in the nearshore foraging habitat. It is further proposed to initiate directed research to determine the distribution and abundance of foraging turtles throughout the nearshore environment of the County. 3 . 2 . 1 Netting Studies To directly assess the potential effects of beach restoration activities on turtles in nearshore reef foraging habitats, the applicant will utilize the data that has been collected by turtle researchers at the University of Central Florida (UCF) . UCF researchers have been conducting netting for over a decade in the nearshore directly offshore from the proposed Sector 1 and 2 project area. The extensive Catch Per Unit Effort (CPUE) data they have collected since 1989 can serve as a baseline from which project effects can be assessed. The UCF effort, despite the valuable data collected, has never had dedicated funding. Indian River County proposes to fully fund the nearshore reef netting effort in the summer following construction and in two subsequent summers and to provide funding for data analysis and report preparation on the effects of the project on foraging turtle CPUE . 13 • 3 .2 . 2 Nearshore Transect Surveys Y ' Directed research efforts associated with these proposed projects have the potential to answer basic questions about how turtles use nearshore reef habitats . Vessel based transect surveys in the nearshore foraging habitat are proposed to gather data to address two important questions : whether turtles, particularly juvenile green turtles, use nearshore habitats year round; and how the density of turtles varies with distance from shore and at various points along the Indian River County coastline. I Aerial surveys have been used to obtain information on the abundance and distribution of turtles over relatively large areas and are appropriate for documenting seasonal variations in population levels (Henwood and Epperly in Eckert et al. , 1999) (Epperly et al . , 1995) , On the relatively limited geographic scale of Indian River County, it is felt that an analogous vessel based approach is adequate . This monitoring effort will employ observers who will count surfacing turtles from a small boat. A semi -quantitative index, sightings per vesseUkm, will be calculated for each species and compared between seasons and areas. Surveys will be conducted twice a year, generally in the spring and fall, and will include one pre-construction survey. Surveys will be conducted in the year following construction and for two subsequent years, for a total of one pre-construction survey and six post-construction surveys. Surveys will include areas offshore of the Sectors 1 & 2 project area as well as areas offshore of the proposed Sectors 5 and 7 project areas. Surveys outside the Sectors 1 &2 project area will serve as controls for this monitoring plan, and will also serve as baseline data for the other project sectors when and if they are constructed. Three 3 -kilometer long study sites will be established and located in the north, central, and southern areas of the County (Table 2 and Figure 4). Three shore parallel transects will be established in each study site at distances of 300, 600, and 1200 feet offshore. GPS waypoints at the north and south ends of each transect will establish a base course that the helmsman will follow. A constant vessel speed will be maintained for all surveys, verified by GPS track log. The vessel will be equipped with a spotting tower capable of supporting two observers . One observer will look to port and the other to starboard. Observers will record and identify to species any turtle they spot surfacing in each lkm segment of each transect. The resulting mean sightings per vessel km will be statistically compared by ANOVA to determine if there are any significant differences in turtle sighting levels among seasons or among different distances from shore . In the summer of 2001 , this technique was tested in cooperation with FWCC and University of Central Florida researchers, and was found to be practical and capable of collecting useful data.

Turbidity at background and compliance station's at the borrow and beach nourishment sites will be measured by a portable nephelometer that meets Environmental Protection Agency standards . Turbidity will be measured from a boat using DGPS to accurately determine the position of sample points relative to the borrow area and beach nourishment sites. Samples will be collected every six hours during dredging, with all samples collected at mid-depth, with the compliance stations collected inside the specified mixing zones within the densest portion of any visible turbidity plume. In the event that turbidity exceeds 29 Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTUs) above background levels in either the beach or borrow area compliance sites, construction activities will immediately cease until corrective measures have been taken, and the turbidity has returned to acceptance levels . Turbidity monitoring reports and maps shall be submitted to the Bureau of Beaches and Wetland Resources weekly during construction. Also reported are permit number, date and time of calibration, sample collection and sample analysis; water depth; sample depth; DGPS position; weather conditions ; tidal stage; current direction; and wind direction and velocity. Sampling locations, current direction, plume configuration and the location of the dredge and discharge point(s) are to be documented on a map that will accompany the Turbidity Monitoring Report. The turbidity monitoring program above will be tasked to the contractor via the contract documents for the project, and will be supervised by County Staff and the County' s engineering consultant. 3 .4 Other Nearshore Monitoring Other nearshore monitoring activities shall include video monitoring along the pipeline corridor and monitoring to determine the as-built extent of the Toe Of Fill (TOF) . 3 .4. 1 Dredge Pipeline Corridor Monitoring Limited monitoring will be conducted along the proposed dredge pipeline corridors to assess the extent of any impacts to hardbottom communities attributable to the presence of the pipelines (see Figure 5 for the proposed location) . Monitoring will consist of three video transect swims along the entire extent of the proposed pipeline corridors, with Positioning information integrated onto the videotape. The first video transect will be conducted prior to the establishment of the pipeline to document existing conditions . The second video transect will be conducted along the corridors with the pipeline in place to document and delineate any areas of hardbottom being impacted, and the final video transect will be conducted following the project to assess any impacts . Results of the pipeline corridor monitoring will be included in the first annual Biological Monitoring Report . 18 1; x A kli `; d s y - 1 i ifdo t tI 5 Ego r ,f � u , s + . e • r „ �+ F �Ff rroJSi3 ^a { JJ �Z1. .�C ''�yy!C. �J ° v J � l 16 J �r t vt r � ✓� •7 .:: .rf o- k i 4Tr F,; L y �' 14fkyi id" n` p p L - x i i 4✓u nF y; SM rI If OOFv{ f i�it NF r !•5,yg ti �� x : " t � � rYA� �( rip10,11 44 � F S1j1' t3<y' f LI i r�- Yui i{ 14 ) � �1Px ilz l r a 5'ai kµ- Fi{ rl wrYq ti P sr ..
