Continuing Professional Consulting Services (CCNA) Request for Qualifications No. 20-07-01 Section E – Page | 6 We permitted the 5th Street Bridge over the Miami Canal. We prepared the entire fill and dredge permit plans that included work in the navigation channel, seawall construction and outfall retrofits. RJ Behar also completed the permitting of the new Northlake Bridge over the Loxahatchee Slough in Palm Beach County. The project included work in very sensitive wetlands for construction of berms, a new weir, and canoe facilities. For SE 3rd Street Reconstruction in the City of Belle Glade, RJ Behar obtained permits from the SFWMD and the South Florida Conservancy District (SFCD). Services included drainage design, utility relocation plans, and water and sewer plans to be constructed as part of the roadway improvements RJ Behar’s experience also includes the construction inspection and supervision of wetland and fill/dredge activities. We performed those services for the SFWMD at the Deering Estates Flow-way project which included construction of a man-made wetland for educational purposes. We also inspected the Southern Crew Imperial River Restoration Phase 1 and 2. Restoration activities included regrading existing filled and agricultural areas, filling ditches, and removing berms in accordance with the proposed restoration plan. The completed project provided shallow foraging habitat in the freshwater marsh areas and gentle side slopes on the deep water depressions for tactile feeder wading birds, specifically the Wood Stork, white ibis, and roseate spoonbills. Additionally, the plan provided and maintained the existing Panther habitat. Existing Cypress areas remained and exotic vegetation was removed.
