EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve and authorize the Chair to execute a professional services Work Order
with APTIM Environmental and Infrastructure, Inc. for a not to exceed cost of $73,889.80 under
Contract 15-6382 to support Collier County during the preparation of the Feasibility Study
performed by the United States Army Corps of Engineers for the Collier County Hurricane and
Storm Damage Reduction (HSDR) project, authorize necessary Budget Amendments and make a
finding that this item promotes tourism (Project 80366).
OBJECTIVE: To provide technical support to allow the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and
Collier County to cooperatively investigate long-term federal shoreline protection within Collier County,
Florida.
CONSIDERATION: An April 30, 1992, resolution adopted by the Committee on Public Works and
Transportation, United States House of Representatives, in accordance with Section 110 of the River and
Harbor Act of 1962, Public Law 87-874, authorized a survey of the shores of Collier County, Florida and
adjacent shorelines, in the interest of hurricane protection, storm damage reduction, beach erosion control,
and other related purposes. The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 (BBA), Public Law 115 -123, enacted
February 9, 2018, authorized the Federal Government to conduct the study at full Federal expense to the
extent that appropriations provided under the Investigations heading of the BBA 2018 are available and
use for such purpose.
On September 11, 2018, the Board approved (Item 16A26) the submittal of an agreement between the
Department of the Army, US Army Corps of Engineers and Collier County for the Feasibility Shoreline
Protection Study. On October 9, 2018, an agreement was executed between the County and the USACE
to execute this study. This agreement will target the completion of the feasibility study within three years
at a total cost of no more than $3 million. After execution of the agreement, a Project Management Plan
will be developed and agreed upon by Collier County, FL, and USACE.
APTIM Environmental and Infrastructure, Inc. along with Collier County staff, will provide the
professional services for technical support, conceptual plan development and agency coordination to
assure that Collier County’s resiliency program, shoreline protection, and storm surge reduction goals are
incorporated throughout this study and incorporated into the USACE preferred plan for agency approval.
This activity is anticipated to continue through the submittal of the USACE preferred plan which is
anticipated to occur in September 2019.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funds are budgeted in Tourist Development Council Beach Renourishment Fund
(195), Project No. 80301, Beach Renourishment. To facilitate reporting $73,900 of the budget will be
moved by budget amendment into Project No. 80366, Coastal Resiliency. Florida Department of
Environmental Protection cost-share funding may be requested at a future date.
ADVISORY COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS: At the November 26, 2018, Tourist
Development Council meeting this item was recommended for approval by a unanimous vote of 9 to 0.
At the December 13, 2018, Coastal Advisory Committee (CAC) meeting this item was recommended for
approval by a unanimous vote of 7 to 0.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires majority vote
for approval. - CMG

for the Collier County Hurricane and Storm Damage Reduction (HSDR) Project
Collier County, Florida
Scope of Work
Contract Number 15-6382
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this work is to support Collier County (County) throughout the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers (Corps) Feasibility Study for the Collier County Hurricane and Storm Damage
Reduction (HSDR) Project. Aptim Environmental & Infrastructure, Inc. (APTIM) will provide the
professional services described below as required by Collier County during the first 12 months of
the Feasibility Process, through the Scoping phase and Alternative Evaluation Analysis phase,
until the Tentatively Selected Plan is identified.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
Task 1. Technical Support and Assistance
APTIM will provide historic Collier County beach nourishment reports and data to the Corps to
assist them in development of the Feasibility Study. It is assumed that this information will be
readily available from APTIM’s and the County’s files, as they are already being compiled for the
County’s Coastal Program History project. In addition to addressing the Corps’ data needs,
APTIM will familiarize Corps planning, engineering, and environmental staff on the Collier County
beach program since the 1990’s and the unique environmental setting that influences the coastal
protection approach. APTIM has technical experience in all aspects of the Corps planning
process, which we will use to advise the County on technical matters including: planning, design
and optimization criteria, parking, access, cost apportionment, project partnership agreements,
easements and other technical matters.
Task 2. Agency Coordination & Meetings
In support of the Feasibility Study process, APTIM will help coordinate, prepare for, and attend
planning meetings (also referred to as “charettes”) with County and Corps staff and stakeholders.
One APTIM representative will participate in these meetings, which are anticipated to be held
within Collier County at locations and on dates to be determined by County and Corps staff.
APTIM will also participate in regular Project Delivery Team (PDT) meetings via conference call,
as well as any other conference calls requested by the County and Corps. APTIM engineers and
biologists will assist the County and Corps with any coordination with local, state, and federal
agencies during the Feasibility Study process. This task may include one in person meeting in
Tallahassee with FDEP staff.
Task 3. Conceptual Plan Development
APTIM will support the County in meeting their coastal resiliency goals by contributing to the
conceptual plan development with the Corps. Our engineers, geologist and biologists will provide
technical analyses, plan formulation, engineering and scientific services to supplement the Corps
effort and technical review of Corps documents. This support will be directed towards assisting
in the development of a federal project that maximizes the County’s resiliency goals, identifies
and develops any components of their preferred resiliency program beyond that covered by the
Corps’ recommended project, and maximizes the cost effectiveness in implementing a combined
project.
