Project Related Experience:
Homosassa Phase V Wastewater Collection System
Infrastructure for Citrus County BOCC. (2006) Supplied Tampa
Bay Engineering Group with pertinent wetland location
information for the planning and engineering of a wastewater
collection system in Homosassa, FL. Wetlands within the study
area were identified, described and mapped. A series of GIS
maps were created to document the locations of wetlands that
may be impacted by the placement of underground utilities.
Section 16 Lake Water Level Monitoring, Biological and
Hydrologic Assessment for Rainbow Springs Utilities. (2006) Assisted with the scope and methodology of
an Environmental Management Plan required by SWFWMD Water Use Permit to assess wetland water
level trends at Section 16 Lake located in the Villages of Rainbow Springs in southwestern Marion County.
Established a 250 foot transect and a water level staff gauge to monitor vegetation and hydrologic
conditions from the open water lake to upland habitat. Hydrologic and vegetative data was collected and
analyzed along the transect. The data will be used to determine the environmental effects, if any on
Section 16 Lake, resulting from a nearby public supply well owned and operated by Rainbow Springs
Utilities. A biological monitoring assessment report is currently being developed which analyzes the
hydrologic and vegetative results.
Jurisdictional Wetland Delineation and Regulatory Agency Inspection. Performed aerial photo-
interpretation, soils assessments, and field reconnaissance to accurately map jurisdictional wetland limits
for numerous residential lots and developments.
Biological Inventory and Habitat Assessments, Gopher Tortoise Surveys, Gopher Tortoise Incidental Take
Permit and Gopher Tortoise Relocations for numerous clients including Manko Company, Saratoga South,
Citrus Springs Unit 24, Emerald Hills Ventures Ranch Estates, Rainbow Springs Tract F, and Citrus
County School Board. Evaluated habitat and likelihood of occurrence or presence of listed species,
mapped land use / land cover, wetlands, topography, and soils.
Floral and Fauna, Listed Species and General Wildlife Assessments. (2006) Performed general as well as
species-specific plant and animal surveys and habitat assessments for numerous small to large public
and private development tracts and public lands. Methods used include habitat mapping and
assessment, pedestrian or vehicular surveys, burrow surveys, cavity tree vigils. Biological assessment
reports were written to document results. Obtained special purpose incidental take permits from the
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
