VIII. Project Managers Report
A. Channel Status, Procedure for future dredging,
The following documents submitted to the County were distributed by Mr. Sells for
information purposes:
• "Water Turkey Bay Maintenance Dredging Project" prepared by Humiston & Moore
Engineers, dated May 20, 2019, highlighting the area of the dredging project.
• "Wiggins Pass Maintenance Dredging and Navigation Improvement Project" prepared
by Coastal Planning & Engineering, Inc, dated January 13, 2012.
• "Wiggins Pass 1111412022 *Soundings in MLLW (Mean Lower Low Water) " recording
the channel depth to ensure the 2020 "After Dredge Survey" Mean Low Tide depth of
about 6.5 feet is accurate.
Mr. Sells noted:
• The Coastal Zone Management Department replaced channel markers as necessary
following Hurricane Ian.
• Historical records identify two (2) prior dredges of the Turkey Bay area during the
1960's and 1980's and the permit for the 2019 project expired on March 18, 2022.
• A permit is required from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and
Army Corps of Engineers, for future dredging projects in Vanderbilt Channel and
Water Turkey Bay.
• A survey is necessary for permit applications and funds are available in the budget for
the activity.
