ITEM NO. VI-C Background: On February 26, 2008, the County entered into a concession lease agreement with Lisa's Kayaks, Inc. for the operation of kayak rentals and excursions at five county -owned sites. The term of the agreement was one year with an option to renew the lease for two additional periods of one year each. The five county sites were North Causeway Island, Little Mud Creek, Harbour Pointe, Bear Point and Pepper Park Riverside. A first amendment was approved by the Board on August 11, 2009 and as part of the amendment, the vendor requested to remove the Harbour Pointe, Pepper Park Riverside and Little Mud Creek sites from the original agreement as they had not produced enough income to warrant payment of the $55 per site monthly rent. The Parks & Recreation Department reviewed the activity at all sites and concurred with the vendor's request. The vendor has notified the County that she would like to renew the lease agreement which includes North Causeway Island and Bear Point for the second and final time, extending it through February 26, 2011. Recommendation: Board approval of the second amendment to the February 26, 2008 Concession Lease Agreement C08-02-157 with Lisa's Kayaks, Inc. as outlined in this agenda memorandum and authorization for the Chairman to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

Cordeiro, Director Solid Waste Department DATE: January 12, 2010 SUBJECT: Hydraulic Control System ITEM NO: VI-D Background: Phase I of the Class 1 landfill was constructed in 1978 and was operated as a conventional landfill until it was closed in 1988. Phase 1, which is located in the upper most northeast corner of the site, has a dirt and clay base (no geosynthetic under liner) and a leachate under drain system constructed from heavy duty plastic tubing. It is noted that a geosynthetic under liner was not required during the timeframe that Phase I was active. During the 1970's and 1980's, St. Lucie County (SLC) allowed it's residential and commercial customers unsupervised access to the landfill for disposal of waste in the Phase I cell of the Class I landfill. Some waste may have the potential to adversely affect the groundwater quality in the area of the Phase I cell. Over the past several years, Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) has raised concern over elevated levels of water quality constituents in the northeast corner of the site near the Phase I cell. Some measures have been taken over the past years to evaluate the accuracy and determine an overall trend in the groundwater quality at the site. From 2001 until 2003, the FDEP indicated concerns regarding groundwater quality in samples from compliance wells for the Phase I landfill. During a solid waste facility inspection conducted by FDEP on May 22, 2003, FDEP stated that evaluation assessment for the northeast corner is required prior to permit renewal in late 2003. In addition, the inspection stated that failure in beginning the assessment may result in an enforcement action. On June 2, 2003, CDM, on behalf of SLC, submitted a letter to FDEP describing the plan of action for evaluating the assessment monitoring of the northeast corner. A Warning Letter was issued by the FDEP on July 23, 2003. The steps to resolve the issue were discussed with FDEP. The approved assessment plan included installation of wells on the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) right -of way (ROW) for Florida's Turnpike. The Resolution Agreement was executed in February 2004 and required SLC to comply with the approved assessment plan. q AGENDA REQUEST ITEM NO. V1 E DATE: 01 /12/10 REGULAR ( ) PUBLIC HEARING ( ) LEG.

Gouin, Director r v� DATE: January 12, 2010 SUBJECT: Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 09-071, Disaster Debris Monitoring Management and Consultant Services ITEM NO. VI-G2 Background: On October 7, 2009, responses to RFP No. 09-071, Disaster Debris Monitoring Management and Consultant Services, were opened. Eight proposals were received; 333 companies were notified and 21 RFP documents were distributed. On November 30, 2009, the selection committee evaluated and ranked the proposals that were received. The committee members' scores and ranking for each firm is provided in Attachment B. The purpose of this RFP is for a firm to assist in debris collection during disaster recovery. St. Lucie County seeks to establish contractual arrangements, with at least one (1) primary and up to three (3) additional qualified firms, to provide management services and technical assistance in regard to the monitoring of disaster debris collection on an as -needed basis. Hurricanes, tornadoes, and other natural and manmade events frequently produce substantial volumes of debris, creating hazardous conditions that impact public health, welfare and safety by obstructing roads, by creating obstacles to safe passage of emergency and essential pedestrian and vehicular traffic, and by notably increasing potential exposure to fire and hazardous materials. To mitigate the hazardous conditions, it is mandatory that there be an early, safe and rapid response to restoring safe and economically viable conditions by the removal of the debris in a prompt and environmentally protective manner. St. Lucie County Solid will assign a Debris Manager to the debris collection/management project and will establish and staff a Debris Management Center at the St. Lucie County Baling and Recycling Facility. The Debris Management Center will provide a site for overall coordination of the project with the proposer(s) and local, state, and federal agencies. Authorized local, state, and federal agencies will also provide staff to the Debris Management Center to assure a proper level of coordination. The Debris Management Center will be the primary point of contact for the proposer(s). Fc6MUN TY F L O R I D A TO: SUBMITTED BY: SUBJECT: BACKGROUND.

Williams, Transit Manager DATE: January 12, 2010 SUBJECT: Single County Designation ITEM NO. VI-1-12 Background: On March 6, 2009, the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) approved submission of a letter to Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for St. Lucie County (SLC) to become dually designated recipients with Martin County for the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Job Access Reverse Commute (JARC) and New Freedom (NF) grants. This separate designation allows individual management of the grants within each jurisdiction and each County would be awarded funds (St. Lucie, $505,223; Martin, $303,653). FDOT approved the request and both counties were awarded grant funds as separate designated recipients. In the approval letter, FDOT stated that by October 2009 Martin County and SLC should select one entity as the lead, per the long term plan for creation of a Regional Transit Authority (RTA) for the Port St. Lucie Urbanized Area (PSL UZA). Each County has expressed interest in taking the lead role. On December 4, 2009, FDOT suggested that the counties meet following the Transit Summit on January 8, 2010 to select the lead entity (Attachment 1). The focus of the Transit Summit is to discuss strategies and actions for implementing regional transit governance. The summit will include elected officials, agency representatives, community leaders, and citizens throughout the Treasure Coast region. On December 17, 2009, St. Lucie Transportation Planning Organization Board unanimously approved identifying SLC as the single designated recipient for grants for the PSL UZA, including JARC/NF funds. As required by FDOT, Resolution 10-013 affirms the BOCC's approval to assume the role of the single designee for transit grants for the PSL UZA. On Dec 21, 2009, Martin County Metropolitan Planning Organization Board approved Martin County as the single County designee for the JARC/NF grants (Attachment 2). St. Lucie County has extensive experience with fixed routes (since 2002) and demand response services (since 1990). St. Lucie County has documented success as the lead entity with multiple federal and state grants. SLC has the capacity and experience needed to make this program a success. Recommendation: Board approval of Resolution 10-013 which establish St. Lucie County as the single County designee for transit grant programs for the Port St Lucie Urbanized Area (PSL UZA); and authorization for the Chairman to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

Background Corine C. Williams, Transit Manager January 12, 2010 Federal Transit Administration (FTA) 5311 Operations Grant VI-H3 The Section 5311 Non -Urbanized Area Formula Program provides Federal operating or capital assistance to eligible recipients who operate/contract public transportation service for non - urbanized rural and small urban areas. This grant provides an annual allocation for operating expenses and is for five years. The Federal goals, as indicated in the application, are: • To enhance the access of people in non -urbanized (rural) areas to health care, shopping, education, employment, public services and recreation; • To assist in the maintenance, development, improvement and use of public transportation systems in rural and small urban areas; and • To encourage and facilitate the most efficient use of all Federal funds used to provide passenger transportation in non -urbanized areas. Historically, the 5311 grant has been directly awarded by Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to the Council on Aging of St. Lucie Inc. as the transportation provider for operation of the demand response services. This grant allows for a total operating assistance in the amount of $120,608 and 50% match of this grant will be funded from various transit grant sources. The most current 5311 grant recently expired and moving forward, FDOT plans to award all transit grants to local governments. By contract, the local transit provider is the subrecipient of transit funds. An annual 5311 allocation would offset operational expenses for the public transportation services in non -urbanized areas. A copy of proposed Resolution No. 10-023 authorizing submission of the application is attached to this memorandum. Recommendation Staff recommends the Board adopt Resolution No. 10-023 authorizing submission of an application to Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for the FTA 5311 Non -Urbanized Area Formula Program and authorization for the Chairman to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.

West, Public Works Director� DATE: January 12, 2010 SUBJECT: Artificial Reef Grant Application ITEM NO.: 111-B Background: The National Geographic Trust grants up to $20,000 to projects that will a) demonstrably improve threatened fish populations, and b) can be exported to other locations around the world to achieve similar gains. The South Atlantic Fisheries Management Council has approved Amendments 17A and 17B to the Snapper Grouper Fishery Management Plan. Said amendments provide for closure to the red snapper fishery and the Warsaw grouper fishery, respectively. St. Lucie County's Artificial Reef Program has deployed artificial reefs that help support growth and survival of numerous regulated fish species that are experiencing overfishing and are threatened by habitat degradation, including red snapper and Warsaw grouper. The proposed juvenile fish habitat artificial reef would complement other artificial reefs in the area and would serve as an example for the use of artificial refs in fisheries management. The $20,000 granted from the National Geographic Conservation Trust will be used to pay the $17,000 artificial reef deployment cost and $3,000 in monitoring costs. A $10,675 match to the construction grant will be provided by the Artificial Reef Program to help pay for conducting pre - deployment surveying ($1,750), deployment monitoring and assistance ($4,650), and post - deployment mapping ($7,275).

The attached FDEP grant agreements, along with supporting Budget Resolution 10-001, provide for state funding for design, permitting and monitoring activities associated with the Ft. Pierce beach project and sand bypassing activities at the Ft. Pierce Inlet that have yet to be determined. The Erosion District reserve account will provide 50% in matching funds for each grant. FDEP Project Agreement 09SL2 allocates an additional $488,739 in state funds for three specific beach and coastal related activities associated with the Ft. Pierce beach project. Work Authorization No. 2 with Taylor Engineering, Inc., for $75,620, identifies the tasks necessary to carry out the engineering services to assist the Corps with the next renourishment anticipated in spring of 2011. Work Authorization No. 3 with Taylor Engineering, Inc., for $257,401, identifies the tasks necessary to carry out the required beach and inlet monitoring activities for 2010. The GRR scope of work will be forthcoming to the Board once it is developed. The second amendment to FDEP Project Agreement 07SL3 allocates an additional $120,948 in state funds for beach related activities associated with sand bypassing at Ft. Pierce inlet. A draft report of the sediment basin alternative was recently completed which includes a Decision Document section that summarizes the results of the preliminary design and provides information and recommendations regarding implementation of a sand bypassing program. Once the Board has considered these recommendations in a future presentation, then these additional funds are available should the Board desire to move forward with future tasks. Previous Action: January 8, 2002 - Board amended FDEP Project Agreement 98SL1 to initiate a sand bypassing study. July 15, 2008 - Board approved FDEP Project Agreement 07SL3 to evaluate sand bypassing alternatives. January 20, 2009 - Board approved first amendment to 07SL3 to refine sediment trap alternative.
