CURRENT PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION (State and Discipline) <br />M.S., Biology None <br />18. OTHER PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATIONS (Publications, Organizations, Training, Awards, etc.) <br />Mr. Pennell is a marine biologist with over 17 years of experience in marine environmental science and a strong background in environmental field studies and <br />monitoring. He has served as a Field Scientist on a diverse range of marine environmental studies concerning coral reef, seagrass, and nearshore hardbottom <br />habitats. Studies have included benthic characterization, habitat damage assessment, and monitoring and restoration programs. He has extensive experience <br />conducting multiyear monitoring programs of nearshore hardbottom habitats in relation to beach nourishment and dredging projects, with participation in multiple <br />beach nourishment monitoring programs in Florida. Mr. Pennell has been responsible for project management; execution of field surveys; data collection, <br />management, QA/QC, and analysis; and preparation of technical reports, annual monitoring reports, and proposals. His M.S. thesis focused on the effects of <br />nighttime lighting on sea turtle nesting behavior in southeast Florida, including endangered leatherback and green sea turtles. Mr. Pennell has over 17 years of <br />experience as a scientific diver, with over 1,200 logged dives, and holds certifications as a Nitrox Diver from Technical Diving International (TDI) and as a Rescue <br />Diver from the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI). He is also trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), first aid, and oxygen administration. <br />19. RELEVANT PROJECTS <br />a. <br />(1) Title and Location (City and State) (2) Year Completed <br />St. Lucie County Beach and Dune Restoration Project Monitoring St. Lucie County, Florida Professional Services Construction (If applicable) <br />2018 2013 <br />(3) Brief Description (Brief Scope, Size, Cost, etc.) and Specific Role x Check if project performed with current firm <br />Project Manager and Chief Scientist for multiyear monitoring of nearshore hardbottom communities and artificial reefs for the St. Lucie County South County <br />Beach and Dune Restoration Project. Aligned biological monitoring program with FDEP requirements to establish permanent monitoring transects. Collected <br />close-up video, quadrat, and sediment data to characterize hardbottom communities nearshore and at the offshore borrow area. Led transect installation, <br />biological monitoring, aerial mapping, and annual post-construction surveys of an artificial mitigation reef constructed nearshore. Performed point count <br />analyses and authored annual post-construction survey reports. Cost: $446,365. <br />b. <br />(1) Title and Location (City and State) (2) Year Completed <br />Miami Harbor Deepening Project Seagrass and Coral Mitigation Miami, Florida Professional Services Construction (If applicable) <br />2014 2014 <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 relocation program for the Port of Miami Dredging Project. Member of team that successfully relocated over 800 stony <br />corals, sea fans, and octocorals from within the project footprint to natural reefs and a newly constructed artificial reef as mitigation for channel and harbor <br />dredging. Participated in artificial reef transect installation, mapping, and monitoring of post-relocation coral health and success. Also assisted in the <br />successful relocation of approximately 50 large barrel sponges from the project footprint to natural reefs. Cost: $1,875,482. <br />c. <br />(1) Title and Location (City and State) (2) Year Completed <br />South Siesta Key Beach Nourishment Project, Phase II Hardbottom Monitoring Surveys Sarasota County, Florida Professional Services Construction (If applicable) <br />2016 2016 <br />(3) Brief Description (Brief Scope, Size, Cost, etc.) and Specific Role x Check if project performed with current firm <br />Field Scientist for multiyear monitoring program for the Siesta Key, Florida beach renourishment project. Participated in the assessment of nearshore and <br />offshore hardbottom communities, mapping, and survey of hardbottom biological habitats before, during, and after construction. To characterize the <br />hardbottom biological communities, assessed hardbottom; installed transects; mapped resources with submersible GPS; and collected scientific data, <br />including collecting close-up video, photos, and in situ repetitive quadrat data. Cost: $490,341. <br />d. <br />(1) Title and Location (City and State) (2) Year Completed <br />FDEP Hardbottom Study Plan Phases 3 and 4 Palm Beach County, Florida Professional Services Construction (If applicable) <br />2014 <br />(3) Brief Description (Brief Scope, Size, Cost, etc.) and Specific Role x Check if project performed with current firm <br />Field Scientist for multiyear survey program offshore Palm Beach County, Florida for the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). Survey <br />included artificial and natural reef areas from four water depth strata, with the goal of determining appropriate design of mitigation reefs that best restore <br />ecological functions of lost natural hardbottom. Participated in the collection of macroalgae and invertebrates by hand and in situ random quadrat <br />assessments of epibiota. Took physical measurements of sediment depth and elevation of artificial and natural reefs. Assessed marine turtle habitat <br />utilization with visual surveys. Cost: $266,049. <br /> <br />93
