PROJECT EXPERIENCE (CONT'D) <br /> • Data collection, entry, tabulation, analyses, report prep and orally presenting results <br /> • Create technical literature for the lay reader (handouts, pamphlets, etc.) <br /> • Grants acquisition and management specialist <br /> Canal Conveyance Capacity Assessments, SFWMD, Lake Okeechobee (L-14, C-23 and C-23A <br /> Canals), FL — Aquatic Biologist. Assessed approximately 45 miles of canal shorelines, berms and <br /> structures for physical conditions related to canal conveyance capacity. Extensive field notes with GPS <br /> coordinates with accompanying photos were taken to describe the entire length of canals and utilized in <br /> summary reports. <br /> Sediment Core Sampling, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), Lake <br /> Rowell, Bradford County, FL — Project manager/Limnologist. Collected up to 13 feet of sediment <br /> throughout this 350-acre lake for chemical and physical evaluation. Coordinated all communications <br /> with FWC, laboratory, surveying, and client staff concerning equipment, methodology and QA/QC <br /> protocol. <br /> Panama City Dredging and Seawall Projects, Panama City, FL — Project Manager. This project <br /> involved multiple dredging and seawall construction sites in environmentally sensitive areas with <br /> existing native submerged and shoreline vegetation. Coordinated with contractor and City staff during <br /> site inspections and project meetings. Also managed the final inspection, certification and closeout of <br /> the project. <br /> B-23 Canal Dredging and Seawall Repair, Port Orange, FL—Aquatic Biologist. Assisted in the <br /> assessment of the project site by conducting field evaluations of canal and shoreline structures. <br /> Recorded canal dimensions and property data to provide ground truth support to engineering staff. <br /> City of Port Orange Causeway Park & Public Shoreline Stabilization, Port Orange, FL — Aquatic <br /> Biologist. Project was to protect shoreline areas with rock revetments and concrete walls. Evaluated 23 <br /> sites for potential ecological impacts. Performed construction inspections to ensure environmental <br /> permit, engineering design and safety compliance. Coordinated with contractors and client by <br /> scheduling project meetings, providing updates and verifying material and invoice quantities. Project <br /> included the B-23 Canal. <br /> Waterway and Canal Dredging, Port St Lucie, FL — Aquatic Biologist/Grants Manager. Evaluated <br /> ten city canals for natural resources, threatened and endangered species, and dock and wall <br /> structures. Also generated environmental summary reports, wrote grant proposal applications, <br /> managed project schedules, and coordinated with city staff. Assisted with generating Environmental <br /> Resource Permit and Sovereign Submerged Lands classification with FDEP. <br /> Reed Canal Access Channel, Halifax River (ICW), South Daytona, FL — Project Manager/Biologist. <br /> Coordinated and conducted physicochemical & sediment sampling, and benthic macroinvertebrate <br /> evaluation of sediment in proposed dredge template to secure environmental permitting. Resulting <br /> data was quantified and qualified in response to SJRWMD permitting/RAI requests. Coordinated with <br /> local, state and federal regulatory agencies to identify restoration projects within the basin for <br /> mitigation. Developed potential mitigation options for impacts and final acceptance by District. <br /> ® Canal Conveyance Capacity Program Phase 1, South Florida Water Management District— Field <br /> reconnaissance of 45 miles of canals for conveyance capacity. Report writing on feasibility and cost <br /> estimate to dredge and repair areas of concern discovered during field reconnaissance. Assess all <br /> canal wetland and vegetation impacts. <br />
