Familiarity with Permitting Agencies Our experience with permitting includes all types of projects. In our A1A project for the FDOT, as an example, we had to permit the project with the FDEP and the USACE. The project was inside the coastal construction control line (CCCL) and included wetland (mangrove) impacts. We designed a mitigation project and coordinated it with a local municipality, which allowed them to enhance an existing park alongside the Intracoastal Waterway. In the project, we also prepared the stormwater pollution prevention plans to comply with the NPDES permitting for construction activities. We prepared the fill and dredge plans, permitting and the mitigation site permitting.
