Beach Projects Application - Collier County Beach Projects
PART III: EVALUATION CRITERIA
1. Project Name: (as listed in the Strategic Beach Management Plan)
Collier County Beach Renourishment
2. Project Description: Include county, location with reference to DEP range monuments, brief
project history, and description of proposed activities.
The project includes the periodic nourishment and monitoring of the Collier County beaches (Vanderbilt, Park
Shore and Naples), maintenance dredging of Doctors Pass as a sand source for Naples Beach and erosion control
structures adjacent to Doctors Pass for sand retention. The project area is located between Florida FDEP reference
monuments R-22+300 and R-79, and includes three “reaches”: Vanderbilt Beach, Park Shore, and Naples. Pelican
Bay will be constructed by the County on a reimbursable basis and is not considered as part of the project area.
Vegetation will be planned for select locations in the project area, and plans will be developed as needed. Dune
growth will be encouraged through planting and maintaining dune vegetation. Dunes will be restored to pre-storm
conditions when damaged.
A 2017 permit modification was approved by FDEP for the Park Shore segment (FDEP Permit 0331817-001-JC) to
extend the northern reach limit from R-43+500 to R-42 in order to incorporate the Clam Pass Park disposal area
that is permitted under the Clam Pass maintenance dredging permits into the County’s beach nourishment
program. Between 2017 and 2020 approximately 38,000 cubic material was placed from Clam Pass onto the
beaches on either side of the inlet and an additional 20,000 cy was placed by truck haul in the newly permitted
segment.
Doctors Pass is utilized as a borrow area for the Collier County Beach Renourishment Project. Periodic dredging of
Doctors Pass and disposal south of the inlet (R-58A-457 to Lowdermilk Park R-61+816) will provide up to 20%
(10,000 cy/yr) of the advanced nourishment fill material for the County’s beaches.
Currently, the permit design is to maintain a 100 ft. wide beach in Vanderbilt and Naples Beaches and an 85 ft.
wide beach in Park Shore, with a 6-year project design life. The beaches have been nourished in 2005/2006 with
an offshore sand source and from an upland sand source using truck haul methods in 2013, 2014, 2016, 2019 and
2020. The County dredged Doctors Pass in spring 2018 and placed 18,200 cubic yards of sand within the nearshore
disposal areas on Naples Beach. Approximately 105,000 tons (70,000 cy) will nourish Naples south of R-60+800
starting in November 2021 and material from Doctors Pass will be dredged and placed south of the inlet through
R-61+800). Doctors Pass dredging is expected to bypass between 20,300 cy and 26,000 cy to Naples Beach.
3. Use of Requested Program Funds: Provide a brief description of tasks to be completed in each
requested phase (Feasibility, Design, Construction, Monitoring, or USACE Multiphase). Indicate
which tasks are cost reimbursement from previous fiscal years.
FY 2022/2023 funds are requested for physical and environmental monitoring.

Inlet Projects Application - Wiggins Pass
PART III: EVALUATION CRITERIA
1. Project Name: As listed in the Inlet Management Plan (IMP) or Strategic Beach Management Plan
(SBMP)
Wiggins Pass Inlet Management
2. Project Description: Include county, location with reference to DEP range monuments, brief
project history, and description of proposed activities.
The Wiggins Pass Project is located on the southwest Florida coastline in Collier County between Florida
Department of Environmental Protection monuments R-16 and R-17 and the project is adjacent to
approximately 2,300 feet of critically eroded Gulf shoreline. The dredge sites are located within Wiggins
Pass, South and North Channels and the Gulf of Mexico. The nearshore and beach disposal sites are
located north of the inlet, between DEP Reference monuments R-12 to R-15.5, and south of the inlet,
between R-18 and R-20. The ebb shoal disposal area is located offshore of Wiggins Pass, approximately
300-1,000 feet north of the authorized inlet channel.
The project permits also includes the periodic maintenance dredging of 4,700 feet of the Water Turkey
Bay navigational channel to the design depth of -5.0 feet MLW, with 0.5 foot over-depth allowance, for
a maximum allowable dredge depth of -5.5 feet. The channel widths range from approximately 90 feet
to 140 feet.
The initial phase of the latest Inlet Management Plan Study was implemented in 2013 by dredging
approximately 107,000 cy for maintenance dredging and initial realignment of the channel. Per the Inlet
Management Plan study, Wiggins Pass is currently dredged at regular intervals of approximately 4 years
to maintain navigable depths for recreational boaters, with optional interim dredging events every two
years to address shoaling across the navigation inlet gulf entrance. In 2015, an interim maintenance
dredging project excavated 13,000 cy to clear the shoal across the main inlet entrance channel. Material
was placed in the ebb shoal disposal area north of the channel and within the flood shoal disposal. FDEP
finalized the inlet management plan in April 2018.
In Spring 2018, dredging of 100,000 cy with disposal split 2/3 of the total volume (67%) to the north and
1/3 of the total volume (33%) to the south to maintain the navigation of the inlet, refine and reinforce
the alignment begun with the 2013 project. Dredging of Wiggins Pass was concurrent with the dredging
of Doctors Pass as a means for sharing of common costs, such as mobilization to reduce costs.
In March 2020 the County conducted a small interim dredging project which removed approximately
21,400 cy from Wiggins Pass and 26,650 cy from Water Turkey Bay with placement in the nearshore
zone north of Wiggins Pass along Barefoot Beach from FDEP reference monument R-12 to R-14. Due to
storms since this project completion, the County is considering an emergency dredging project to
remove shoals that impede navigation.

3. Use of Requested Program Funds:
The applicant is requesting funding for Design, Construction and Monitoring for the 2022/2023 FY. The
project may be implemented early to address the recent storm driven infill.
4. Map: Provide as an attachment.
The mapping is included with this application.
5. Project length: Total restored project boundary (in feet) as listed in the IMP or SBMP.
Inlet influence north and south of Wiggins Pass was initially investigated in 1986 (Hine, et al). By
examining the offshore contours in the vicinity of Wiggins Pass, the authors concluded that the length
of influence along the updrift beach (north) was approximately 3,300 feet. It is at this distance north of
the inlet, that the offshore contours become parallel to one another. The authors also found that the
corresponding inlet effects downdrift (south) of Wiggins Pass extended approximately 2,040 feet (CPE,
2012). The Inlet Management Plan (CPE, 2012 and FDEP, 2018) monitors an area approximately a mile
north and south of Wiggins Pass for inlet management (R-11 to R-21).

Inlet Projects Application
7. Sand reaching the inlet
Provide the estimated annual quantity (cubic yards) of beach quality sand reaching the updrift
boundary of the improved jetty or inlet channel:
The bypass objective determined in the adopted Wiggins Pass Inlet Management Plan is 20,600
cubic yards per year. Based upon recent data, the annual volume of sediment reaching the inlet
for the period 2018-2021 is 44,728 cy/yr (H&M, 2021). The volume change since 2018 has not yet
been evaluated for a new bypass objective.
8. Severity of erosion
Provide the annual bypassing objective (cubic yards/year) adopted by the IMP or SBMP or as
determined by a Department-approved study:
The Inlet Management Plan and the Strategic Beach Management Plan (FDEP, 2018) for Wiggins Pass
states that on an average annual basis, the initial target inlet sand bypassing quantity shall be 20,600
cubic yards per year, with approximately one-third placed to the south of the inlet and approximately
two-thirds placed to the north.
• 2/3 to North target = 13,733cy/yr
• 1/3 to South target = 6,833 cy/yr
9. Balancing the sediment budget
Provide the current annual average of bypassed material (cubic yards) since the adoption of a bypass
objective:
The current annual 44,728 cy/yr meets the total IMP target.
Provide a brief description of when the last sediment budget engineering analysis was completed for
the inlet and area of inlet influence. Discuss any proposals to update the sediment budget.
In 2011, 49,900 cy of material was removed from Wiggins Pass. In 2013 a total 107,370 cy was dredged
from Wiggins Pass. The 2015 interim dredging excavated 9,400 cy from the inlet entrance channel and
the connecting south channel. The 2018 project removed approximately 95,900 cy from Wiggins Pass.
The 1995 Inlet Management Study and corresponding strategic beach management plan was
implemented starting in 2001. A new study was completed in 2012, permitted and initiated in 2013.
FDEP approved the final plan in April 2018.
The bypassing plan adopted in April 2018 was first implemented with the 2018 dredging event. Since
the IMP adoption, the bypassing objectives have been met.
In March 2020 the County conducted a small interim dredging project which removed approximately
21,400 cy from Wiggins Pass and 26,650 cy from Water Turkey Bay with placement in the nearshore
zone north of Wiggins Pass along Barefoot Beach from FDEP reference monument R-12 to R-14.

Inlet Projects Application
The Wiggins Pass Inlet Management Plan was adopted in 2018 as described in the FDEP report dated
April 2018. Two inlet dredging events have occurred since, in 2018 and 2020. The dredge and disposal
volumes are summarized below and average 27,700 cy/yr and 13,070 cy/yr north and south of the inlet
respectively.
This calculation is based on dredging quantities and does not adjust for fill placed on the beach or in the
nearshore. In addition, the quantity placed from the south (Vanderbilt) channel is not shown, since the
sand comes from outside the active sand exchange system.

Note: The channel through Water Turkey Bay was dredged in 2020 of 26,500 cy which was placed
north of the inlet. This was not a traditional bypassing operation.
10. Increased bypassing and cost-effectiveness
Provide the estimated increase in annual bypassing of sand (cubic yards/year) proposed for the project:
None proposed at this time
Provide the estimated shortfall of annual bypassing of sand (cubic yards/year) within the inlet system:
Yes, the adopted bypassing objective is currently being met. Preliminary (20,600 cy/yr). Current Period
(44,700 CY/yr which is an increase of 24,100 cy/yr. The project is combined with Doctors pass for
economies of scale.
Is the proposed project requesting construction phase funds for a major inlet management pro ject
component?
Construction phase funds are requested at this time. There may be enough funds in the current contract
to meet both the emergency and routine dredging needs.
If yes, and for the award of points for the cost-effectiveness of using inlet sand criteria, provide an opinion
of probable cost per unit volume of the inlet and all other sand sources, certified by a licensed professional
engineer.
The cost per cubic yard for this project has been determined by Steve Keehn, PE to be $15.35/cy based
on a weighted unit cost of a two-inlet project and the 2020 project bid sheet.
11. Inlet Management Plans
Select all that apply:
X Existing IMP: The proposed project has an existing IMP or completed Inlet Management Study
that has been approved by the Department.
12. Enhanced longevity of proximate beach nourishment projects
Annualized beach nourishment volume of proximate beach nourishment project:
In March 2020 the County conducted a small interim dredging project which removed approximately
21,400 cy from Wiggins Pass and 26,650 cy from Water Turkey Bay with placement in the nearshore
zone north of Wiggins Pass along Barefoot Beach from FDEP reference monument R-12 to R-14. Since
the adoption of the inlet management plan 44,728 CY has been placed on average per year along the
shoreline adjacent to Wiggins Pass. The recent approval of a cultural resources report on the Delnor
Wiggins Park beaches should clear the way for disposal of dredged material on the dry beach. This will
have increased staying power compared to recent practices.
