The Lee Board of County Commissioners is reviewing plans for proposed modifications to a weir. This project involves preparing and submitting applications for an Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) exemption verification to the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) and a Section 404 Nationwide Permit (NWP) to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). It also includes preparing a Lee County Development Order application package. The project is currently under review. Work will involve environmental field reviews to assess potential surface water impacts, preparing technical memorandums, and responding to agency requests for information. The scope includes site assessment, documentation preparation, and electronic submittal of permit applications. Contractors specializing in environmental consulting, permitting services, and civil engineering could find opportunities. Engaging early before final plans and permits are settled may provide a competitive advantage.
