Due to the extensive hardbottom areas located offshore of the fill area, offshore pipeline access is limited to

specified corridors. Staging area and beach access to the beach placement area is located within Martin County. Work also includes but is not limited to endangered species observers (hopper dredges only), screening, sea turtle trawling (hopper dredges only), turbidity monitoring, beach tilling, beach fill quality control, screening, MEC construction support, and vibration control and monitoring.
