Manatee Conditions:
The following conditions are intended to protect manatees from direct project effects; THESE
CONDITIONS APPLY ONLY IN WATERS THAT ARE ACCESSIBLE TO MANATEES:
1. All personnel associated with the project will be instructed about the presence of manatees and
manatee speed zones, and the need to avoid collisions with and injury to manatees. The permittee
will advise all construction personnel that there are civil and criminal penalties for harming,
harassing, or killing manatees which are protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act, the
Endangered Species Act, and the Florida Manatee Sanctuary Act.
2. All vessels associated with the construction project will operate at'Idle Speed/No Wake' at all times
while in the immediate area and while in water where the draft of the vessel provides less than a
four -foot clearance from the bottom. All vessels will follow routes of deep water whenever possible.
3. Siltation or turbidity barriers will be made of material in which manatees cannot become entangled,
will be properly secured, and will be regularly monitored to avoid manatee entanglement or
entrapment. Barriers must not impede manatee movement.
4. All on-site project personnel are responsible for observing water -related activities for the presence of
manatee(s). All in -water operations, including vessels, must be shutdown if a manatee(s) comes
within 50 feet of the operation. Activities will not resume until the manatee(s) has moved beyond the
50 -foot radius of the project operation, or until 30 minutes elapses if the manatee(s) has not
reappeared within 50 feet of the operation. Animals must not be herded away or harassed into
leaving.
5. Any collision with or injury to a manatee will be reported immediately to the FWC Hotline at
1-888-404-FWCC. Collision and/or injury should also be reported to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service in Jacksonville (1-904-731-3336) for north Florida or Vero Beach (1-772-562-3909) for
south Florida.
6. Temporary signs concerning manatees will be posted prior to and during all in -water project
activities. All signs are to be removed by the permittee upon completion of the project. Awareness
signs that have already been approved for this use by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission (FWC) must be used (see MyFWC.com). One sign which reads Caution: Boaters must
be posted. A second sign measuring at least 8 1/2" by 11" explaining the requirements for'Idle
Speed/No Wake' and the shut down of in -water operations must be posted in a location prominently
visible to all personnel engaged in water -related activities.
