Dania Beach Boulevard Dania Beach, Florida 33004 Re: Proposal for Professional Services - Revised Bathymetric Survey and Maintenance Dredge Permitting Dania Cut-Off Canal and Adjacent City Canals Broward County, Florida Sea Systems Corporation Proposal Number 3288.Pro Dear Ms. Temchuk: Pursuant to your request, we are pleased to submit the following proposal for your review. As discussed, the scope of work shall include the necessary tasks associated with seeking all authorizations for proposed maintenance dredging activities within critically shoaled areas of the Dania Cut-Off Canal and adjacent City canal systems. Specifically, this shall include a portion of Dania Cut-Off Canal from U.S. 1 westerly to approximately 1500 feet west of the C-10 Canal. There are four (4) residential city canal systems located along the north side of this stretch of the C-10 encompassing a total of approximately 6000 linear feet of manmade canals. Tasks associated with this scope of work shall include the following: Task One: Bathymetric Survey Sea Systems Corporation has conducted a bathymetric survey of a portion of the Dania Cut-Off Canal from the confluence of the C-10 Canal east to the U.S. 1 bridge. The survey was conducted for the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) as part of the proposed C-10 Canal maintenance dredge program scheduled for commencement during March of this year. Assuming authorization from the FDOT, the data collected from this survey will be used to assess dredging requirements along this reach of the Dania Cut-Off Canal. Data collected within areas in need of dredging will be used for subsequent planning and permitting purposes. Within the remaining section of the Dania Cut-Off Canal as well as the described residential canal systems, Sea Systems Corporation shall collect additional bathymetric survey data to the extent required for assessment of dredging needs and subsequent permitting purposes. Bathymetric data shall be collected along cross sections spaced at intervals of one hundred (100) feet oriented approximately perpendicular to the thread of the waterway. Vertical and horizontal data shall be collected and presented relative to the National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGVD) of 1929 and the Florida State Plane Coordinate System, East Zone,North American Datum(NAD), 83/90, respectively. All work shall be conducted under the direct supervision and responsible charge of a •Professional Surveyor and Mapper registered in the State of Florida. J:\Proposaisl2002 Proposalsl3288.dwda.pemdtting.doc Sea Systems Corporation 2300 NW 30'i' Place _ Pompano Beach, Florida 33069 934-979-9071 — Frcx (934) 979-9076 SYSTEMS CORPORATION Proposal for Professional Services -Revised Bathymetric Survey and Maintenance Dredge Permitting Dania Cut-Off Canal and Adjacent City Canals Broward County, Florida Sea Systems Corporation Proposal Number 3288.Pro March 19, 2002 Page Two The bathymetric survey will be conducted using an automated hydrographic survey system encompassing a fathometer, Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS), and computer based navigation/ data collection system. Data will be collected along each transect to the limits of the survey skiff dictated by either water depth or obstruction (dock or moored vessel). Along each transect the location of either the bulkhead or natural shoreline will be acquired via DGPS for post processing, modeling and charting purposes. Prior to the start of the survey, Sea Systems Corporation will establish a tide staff in close proximity to the survey area for monitoring water levels during the course of the survey. The tide staff will be set relative to a minimum of two (2)published benchmarks. Upon completion of the survey, data will be edited, tide corrected and translated to an X,Y,Z ASCII format for final chart production. Final X,Y,Z data will be imported to MicroStation and overlaid with the best • approximation of the shoreline obtained from georeferenced aerials of the area. Based upon the alignment of canal system, a baseline and stationing scheme will be setup from which to cut cross sections and ultimately present the data. Cross sections will be cut from Digital Terrain Models developed from the data. Charts will be provided encompassing a horizontal control and canal stationing plan and cross section plots. Final charts will be certified by a Professional Surveyor and Mapper registered in the State of Florida. Task Two: Environmental Agency Authorizations Authorization to conduct the maintenance dredging activities will be required from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USCOE) and locally from the Broward County Department of Planning and Environmental Protection (BCDPEP). Using the results of the referenced bathymetric survey (Task One), Sea Systems Corporation will prepare all necessary permit sketches and file applications for authorizations pertaining to the maintenance dredging activities. As discussed, it will be our objective to seek authorizations for hydraulic dredging operations using the same or equivalent spoil disposal site as proposed for the aforementioned C-10 maintenance dredge project. We will also attempt to secure similar types of authorizations as that received by the FDOT for their project. Note that these types of authorizations will require material sampling and analysis to demonstrate there will be no violations to State water quality criteria as a result of the project. Fees for services associated with this task include the initial sediment testing and analysis required to determine the quality of material to be dredged. Should the quality of the sediments prove to be contaminated requiring additional testing procedures or other permitting strategies,there will be additional fees beyond that described herein. Specifically, we shall request a "Letter of Exemption" from the FDEP for the maintenance dredging •activities pursuant to Rule 40E-4.051 (2)(a) of the Florida Administrative Code(F.A.C.). From the USCOE JAProposals12002 ProposalsWS&dania pemtitting.doc Sea Systems Corporation 2300 NW 3e Place .- Pompano Beach, Florida 33069 • '"" n 954-9 79-90 71 —Fcx.Y (954) 9 79-90 76 SYSTEMS CORPORATION Proposal for Professional Services- Revised Bathymetric Survey and Maintenance Dredge Permitting Dania Cut-Off Canal and Adjacent City Canals Broward County,Florida Sea Systems Corporation Proposal Number 3288.Pro March 19,2002 Page Three we, shall request approval under the Nationwide Permitting Program, specifically Nationwide Permit 31. To acquire these authorizations plan and cross section sketches describing the location and extent of dredging will have to be prepared. An application for Environmental Resource Permit will also have to be completed further outlining the details of the proposed work.. These documents will be provided to both the FDEP and USCOE along with written requests for authorizations. On a local level, a license for maintenance dredging will have to be obtained from the BCDPEP. The licensing process requires the preparation and submittal of a separate application along with plans and specifications for the proposed project. The County may require subsequent benthic surveys to be conducted for assessment of possible marine resource impacts. It is unknown whether or not the County will require these subsequent surveys until time of application submittal, therefore costs for these services is not included • as part of this proposal. Total lump sum fee for the work described herein shall be$20,000.00. Sea Systems Corporation shall attempt to secure all required authorizations for the subject maintenance dredging activities prior to close of business on May 30, 2002. The City should be aware that this is an aggressive schedule and will be subject to agency response times, results of material testing and extent of concerns raised by the agencies. Upon notice to proceed, Sea Systems Corporation will immediately schedule the required additional survey work to assess overall maintenance dredging requirements. Upon determination of areas in need of dredging, material testing procedures will be implemented in coordination with the agencies. No guarantees can be provided regarding the total time required for acquisition of required authorizations. Sea Systems Corporation may request City representation at agency meetings to assist with expediting the permitting process. In addition to the referenced scope of work, Sea Systems Corporation shall assist the City with their presentation to the Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND) pertaining to their Grants Assistance Program. This shall include attendance to the FIND Board meeting scheduled for some time in June of 2002. Should you have questions or require additional information please do not hesitate to contact us at your convenience. Should you agree with the scope of work and associated fees, please execute below and return one copy of this proposal back to my attention.
