Agenda 04/28/2015 Item #16A 8 4/28/2015 16.A.8.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve and authorize the Chairman to execute Contract No. 15-6416 —
Wiggins Pass Interim Channel Dredging to remove approximately 9,400 cubic yards (CY's) of
beach quality shoaled sand from the Wiggins Pass channel to Quality Enterprises USA Inc., for
$242,304 (Project No. 80288), authorize the necessary budget amendment, and make a finding that
this item promotes tourism.
OBJECTIVE: To remove approximately 9,400 CY's of sand from the Wiggins Pass channel on
an interim basis until a major channel dredging is required in the Spring of 2017.
CONSIDERATIONS: In spring 2013, Wiggins Pass underwent maintenance dredging that
straightened and removed 107,370 cubic yards of material from the pass. This dredging event
was the first step in implementing a Management Plan that would provide a safe channel for
boating; address erosion at Barefoot Beach Park; lengthen the dredge cycle while minimizing
effects to the environment and provide a solution that is economically effective. The Wiggins
Pass Management Plan always anticipated lengthening the major dredge cycle to four (4) years
with a smaller interim dredge anticipated every two years. This interim dredging event, which
has been programmed as a two year "cleanup" dredge is limited in scope and will only address
hot spot accretional areas within the channel. This interim dredge has been planned and
permitted and falls between major maintenance dredging anticipated every four years.
This is the first two year interim dredging event and is somewhat larger than originally
anticipated. Up to 9,400 CY's of material is planned to be removed from three shallow spots in
the channel and disposed in areas to buildup the north side ebb shoal and the original meander
flood shoal. A slower, more natural build up of the north side ebb shoal should reduce future
interim dredging requirements.
ITB No. 15-6416 for interim dredging of Wiggins Pass was posted on February 23, 2015, with
notices sent to 1,893 firms and 83 firms downloading full packages. Five responses were
received on the March 17, 2015 due date. Staff evaluated the bids and determined that Quality
Enterprises USA, Inc. was the lowest qualified and responsive bidder. The Engineer's estimated
cost of construction for this project was $217,432.
The bid tabulation is as follows:

1 Quality Enterprises $242,304.00
2 Zep Construction $294,269.00
3 Gator Dredging $396,930.00
4 Florida Marine $457,963.00
5 Earth Tech $477,300.00

nesting season on 5/1/2015. However, all work activities and dredging will be completed over
water and no interference with nesting sea turtles is anticipated.
Staff recommends that ITB No. 15-6416 be awarded to Quality Enterprises USA, Inc. as the
lowest, qualified and responsive bidder. The bid tab is listed as Attachment A.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for the proposed work order is not presently included in the
budget. However, sufficient funding is available in Tourist Development Tax Fund (195)
reserves. A budget amendment will be necessary to move funds from reserves into Project No.
80288, Wiggins Pass Dredge. Funding for this project will not be requested for reimbursement
from any grantor agency.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no impact to the Growth Management Plan
related to this action.
