Scope: • Dune repair • Sand samples • Erosion assessment • Construction administration • Environmental permitting Cummins Cederberg served as the project manager, senior engineer, and marine biologist for the Hillsboro Club Dune Repair, providing emergency dune restoration and repair services, as well as sand studies at the Hillsboro Club. Responsibilities included pre-construction sediment testing, preparation, and submittal of FDEP CCCL permit application packages, development of construction documents, and coordination with the Town of Hillsboro Beach for code compliance. The dune design was based on maximizing the volume of sand seaward of the project property. As required by the FDEP, existing dune vegetation mapping was performed, a proposed vegetation planting plan developed, and planting design parameters were prepared. The planting plans included the identifying the location of existing native dune vegetation to be preserved, buried, or replanted, proposed dune vegetation plantings for stabilization and mitigation, and areas of invasive exotic plants for removal. Sand samples from the existing dune system were obtained and tested to identify available sand sources for the renourishment project. Cummins Cederberg was able to perform the sand testing prior to the beginning of a nearby dredging project, which was occurring concurrently. Through this expedited, out-of-the-box process, we were able to evaluate if this alternative sand source could be used for the dune repair, making the project more economically feasible for the client. Cummins Cederberg also provided general construction administration services ranging from participation in pre-construction meetings, coordination with FDEP compliance, and periodic site visits.
