<br />Project Manager and Lead Field Scientist for a sediment tracer study conducted several years following construction of the Miami Harbor Dredging
<br />(Phase III) Project in order to examine sediment transport pathways and dominant oceanographic processes in the vicinity of Government Cut and the
<br />federal channel. Led all field aspects of the study, which included four rounds of sediment sampling in a 9-month period for tracers and other data collection
<br />on Middle and Outer Reefs and deployment and maintenance of moorings housing oceanographic equipment. Coordinated all GIS aspects of the study and
<br />display of tracer results in figures and co-authored all reports with teaming partners. Cost: $120,000
<br />b.

<br />Coral and Seagrass Mitigation for the Miami Harbor Construction Dredging (Phase III) Project Miami, Florida Professional Services Construction (If applicable)
<br />2016 2015
<br />(3) Brief Description (Brief Scope, Size, Cost, etc.) and Specific Role X Check if project performed with current firm
<br />Field Scientist in large-scale coral and seagrass mitigation programs for the Miami Harbor Dredging (Phase III) Project. Member of team that successfully
<br />relocated over 800 stony corals, sea fans, and octocorals from the project footprint to natural reefs and a newly constructed mitigation reef. Participated in
<br />the post-transplantation monitoring of 115,000 seagrass plants successfully transplanted into a newly filled dredge hole north of the Julia Tuttle Causeway in
<br />Miami which created 17 acres of new seagrass habitat. Cost: $1,875,482.
<br />c.
<br />(1) Title and Location (City and State) (2) Year Completed
<br />Broward County Outfall Coral Monitoring Broward County, Florida Professional Services Construction (If applicable)

<br />Lead Field Scientist for a series of coral monitoring surveys associated with the Ocean Outfall Cover Material Rehabilitation Project offshore the Broward
<br />County Water and Wastewater Services North Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant in Pompano Beach. The monitoring surveys were initiated to monitor
<br />success of stony and soft corals relocated to the cover material on the outfall pipe following damage to benthic resources during maintenance dredging of
<br />the Hillsboro Inlet in 2002. Reference colonies were also tagged and monitored. CSA also reattached an additional 40 “corals of opportunity” (corals
<br />naturally detached from substrate due to bio-erosion or storms) to the cover material and performed monitoring surveys of these colonies as well as
<br />respective reference colonies as additional mitigation. Cost: $80,807.
