Engineering Evaluation:
Land Use
The existing land use will not be changed.
Water Quality/Water Quantity
The proposed project does not alter any previously constructed facilities and includes implementation of a
Turbidity and Erosion Control Plan, (Exhibit No. 2.0), as additional reasonable assurance of compliance with
water quality criteria during construction.
Construction Completion Certification (CCC) and O&M
Pursuant to Rule 62-330.310, FAC, Individual Permits will not be converted from the construction phase to
the operation phase until CCC of the project is submitted to and accepted by the District. This includes
compliance with all permit conditions, except for any long-term maintenance and monitoring requirements. It
is suggested that the permittee retain the services of an appropriate professional registered in the State of
Florida for periodic observation of construction of the project.
For projects permitted with an operating entity that is different from the permittee, it should be noted that
until the CCC is accepted by the District and the permit is transferred to an acceptable operating entity
pursuant to Sections 12.1 - 12.3, ERP AH Vol. I and Rule 62-330.310, FAC, the permittee is liable for O&M
in compliance with the terms and conditions of this permit.
.. In accordance with Section 373.416(2), FS, unless revoked or abandoned, all SWM systems and works
permitted under Part IV of Title 373, FS, must be operated and maintained in perpetuity.
The efficiency of SWM systems, dams, impoundments, and most other project components will decrease
^ over time without periodic maintenance. The O&M entity must perform periodic inspections to identify if
there are any deficiencies in structural integrity, degradation due to insufficient maintenance, or improper
operation of projects that may endanger public health, safety, or welfare, or the water resources. If
deficiencies are found, the O&M entity is responsible for correcting the deficiencies in a timely manner to
prevent compromises to flood protection and water quality. See Section 12.4, ERP AH Vol. I for Minimum
Operation and Maintenance Standards.
Notable project components requiring routine inspection and maintenance include but are not limited to:
• Side slopes for stormwater lakes and ponds — maintain side slopes no steeper than 4:1
(horizontal:vertical) to a depth of 2.0 feet below the control elevation and nurtured or planted from 2.0
feet below to 1.0 feet above the control elevation pursuant to Subsection 5.4.2, ERP AH Vol. II.
• Conveyance pipes, conveyance structures and discharge structures — all pipes and structures must be
inspected for structural integrity and be maintained clear of trash, sediment and vegetative debris.
• Exfiltration trenches — all pipes and structures must be inspected for structural integrity and be
.. maintained clear of trash, sediment and vegetative debris.
• Swales—maintain the permitted cross-section and vegetative cover.
.- • Underground storage facilities —all facilities must be inspected for structural integrity and be maintained
clear of trash, sediment and vegetative debris.
• Pumps—float switches should be inspected and any obstructions removed to ensure proper operation;

generally be described as an upland cut saltwater/brackish ditch. No benthic resources are located within
the OSW.
Elimination and Reduction of Impacts
The proposed work within OSWs is considered to be restoration work and therefore does not need to meet
the elimination and reduction criteria in Subsection 10.2.1, ERP AH Vol. 1. Additionally, existing mangroves
adjacent to the ditch will not be impacted by the proposed work.
Mitigation Plan
In accordance with Subsection 10.2.2.3, ERP AH Vol. I, the regulated activity will not adversely impact the
value of functions provided to fish and wildlife and listed species by wetlands and OSWs, therefore,
mitigation is not required.
Monitoring and Maintenance
Maintenance will be conducted by the operating entity during the establishment period of the wetland areas
to minimize recruitment of nuisance and invasive exotic species.
Fish, Wildlife, and Listed Species
The OSWs to be impacted provide habitat for listed species including the West Indian Manatee (Trichechus
manatus). A baffle box will be added to the existing weir to ensure that this species will not be impacted by
the proposed work.
This permit does not relieve the permittee from complying with all applicable rules and any other agencies'
requirements if, in the future, endangered or threatened species or species of special concern are
discovered on the site.
Public Interest Test
The permittee has demonstrated that the proposed project is not contrary to the public interest in
accordance with Subsection 10.2.3, ERP AH Vol. I. No adverse effects to fish and wildlife, navigation,
fishing or recreational values, historical and archeological resources, or the relative values of function will
occur as a result of the proposed activity.
Additionally, the proposed activities will result in a net public benefit by reducing erosion and sedimentation
of OSWs and be creating additional wetland habitat.

Water Use Permit Status
Neither irrigation nor dewatering are required for this project.
This permit does not release the permittee from obtaining all necessary Water Use authorization(s) prior to
the commencement of activities which will require such authorization, including construction dewatering and
irrigation.
I
Historical/Archaeological Resources
The District has received correspondence from the Florida Department of State, Division of Historical
Resources indicating that no significant archaeological or historical resources are recorded on the project
site; therefore, the project is unlikely to have an effect upon any such resources.
This permit does not release the permittee from complying with any other agencies requirements in the
event that historical and/or archaeological resources are found on the site.

with compliance with its terms and conditions, have the transferee sign and date below
and mail to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Enforcement Section, Post Office Box
