April 17,2018
The following Scope of Services is identified as Exhibit A and is for services provided by
Ecological Consulting Solutions, Inc. (ECS) for Booth Ern Straughan & Hiott, Inc. (the
Client).
TASK I: WETLAND DETERMINATION
The project site will be inspected to determine if any areas will be claimed as
jurisdictional wetlands by either the State or Government. Any onsite wetlands will be
mapped in the field to aid in determining acreage of uplands versus wetlands and areas
requiring permits for alterations. Two agencies may have jurisdiction on wetlands within
the project site and include:
• U.S. Army Corps of Engineers(ACOE)and
• Florida Department of Environmental Protection(FDEP)
The ACOE regulates wetlands under 33 CFR, Parts 320-330. Identification of wetlands
is conducted utilizing the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual (1987)which
takes into account multiple parameters including vegetation indicator species, hydric
soils,and hydrology.
A statewide wetland determination methodology, utilized by the water management
districts and the FDEP, was implemented in 1994 and provides for a unified method to
delineate wetlands in the state of Florida.
ECS will prepare a written summary of the wetland determination and include offsite
mitigation options and associated costs should wetland impacts be necessary. Included
will be a map of the wetland and upland limits.
TASK II: AGENCY VERIFICATION
The field-flagged wetland line will be verified by representatives of the various regulatory
agencies for "sign-off'. Upon review/verification, the survey performed by the Project
Surveyor would be provided to the regulatory agencies for validation. This task does not
include survey fees.
el:ecslproposa150412181sos.doc 1
A. An ACOE representative will be contacted to conduct a field review of the
flagged wetland line. After review, a survey of the line will be provided to the
ACOE and validated by "sign-off' in a formal jurisdictional determination JD .
( )
J
These JD's are typically valid for a period of five years. No fee for review of the
line is charged by the ACOE.
B. The DEP requires the completion of the "REQUEST FOR VERIFICATION OF
INFORMAL WETLAND DETERMINATION" form and the Checklist- Request
for Informal Wetlands Jurisdictional Determination for Single Family sites to be
completed prior to the site visit. ECS typically completes these two forms and
submits them to DEP staff.
TASK III: LISTED SPECIES SURVEY (If Necessary)
A cursory survey of the project limits will be conducted by pedestrian transects over the
project area to identify the potential for flora or fauna protected by the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (USFWS),the Florida Department of Agriculture(FDA), and the Florida
Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) per 50 CFR 17.11 "List of
Endangered and Threatened Wildlife" and 50 CFR 17.12 "List of Endangered and
Threatened Plants".
Special emphasis will be placed on surveying for the presence of the Florida scrub jay,
sand skink and the gopher tortoise since these species are known to occur within this
portion of Lake County.
A letter report detailing the results will be prepared and submitted to the Client. The
letter report will include all data collected as well as the available options,
recommendations, and estimated costs for preparing a management or mitigation plan,
should the results indicate the presence of a listed species. This letter report can be used
through all phases of permitting with the environmental agencies.
TASK IV: FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
PERMITTING
A. Review available pertinent environmental documentation on the property.
B. Assist the project engineer with the preparation and submittal of the permit
application.
C. Analyze wetland impacts resulting from the proposed boat ramp and modified

proposed for impacts
D. Respond to one Request for Additional Information from the FDEP.
E. Provide a detailed proposed mitigation plan to offset any proposed wetland
impacts.
F. Verify limits of sovereign and submerged lands and obtain approval to impact this
area.
TASK V: U.S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS PERMITTING
A. Analyze proposed project site to determine if a General or Individual Permit
application is necessary. The following tasks are included as part of the project
analysis:
Analyze the project as it pertains to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
Determine if project meets Section 10 criteria of the Rivers and Harbors Act.

The Architect will manage all professional services and administer the Project, including
research of applicable design criteria, administration of Owner's requirements,
coordination of project schedule, and coordinate the services of the Architect's
consultants with those services provided by the Owner and Owner's consultants. Integral
with project administration are:
DESIGN SERVICES:
A. Schematic Design Documentation:
1. After the project parameters has been discussed, the project enters the
Schematic Design Phase. The Architect starts with rough diagram of the
interrelationships of the various spaces in the building. Project design at
this level is for the establishment of a design concept only. Once this
preliminary program is reviewed and approved, it shall become the
Project Program, and shall become the guide for design.
2. Sketch plans are then prepared, showing the general arrangement of
areas and spatial relationships to the existing site and structure.
3. The schematic drawings usually include small scale drawings of the
principal floor plans, explanatory sketches, site plan, exterior elevations,
building sections and sketches.
Page 2 of 6 POWELLSTUOIO

B. Construction Documents:
Based on written approval of the Design Documents, the Architect shall proceed
with the preparation of the Construction Documents.
1. The Architect shall prepare detailed drawings and specifications for the
construction of the project, upon which the Contractor will establish the
construction cost. These documents will be used for actual construction.
This period in the project's development is usually a time of less client
involvement, since it is the technical elaboration of ideas developed
during earlier phases. However, periodic communication and contact to
review the progress and answer any questions are in order.
2. At the completion of this phase, you will have complete working drawings
and specifications ready for bidding or negotiating with general
contractors, ready for submission for a building permit, and ready for the
construction of your project.
C. CONSTRUCTION PROCUREMENT SERVICES:
The next step is to choose the right firm who can convert the construction
documents into a building. The Architect will assist the Owner in awarding, and
preparing contracts for construction in the bidding or negotiating procedure to
achieve the best results.
D. CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION SERVICES:
With the signing of the construction agreement with your contractor, the final
chapter begins; the construction of your project. During construction, our role is
to act as your agent, administering the Construction Contract.
1. General Administration: Assist the Owner with processing change
orders, field orders, and general problem solving.
2. Evaluations of the Work: The Architect and the Architect's consultants
will visit the site at intervals appropriate to the stage of Contractor's
operations, to become generally familiar with the progress of the Work to
keep the Owner informed about progress and quality of the Work, and to
monitor compliance with the Construction Documents.
3. Certification of Payments to Contractor: The Architect will review the
Contractor's applications for payment and shall issue Certificates of
Payment in such amounts, based on the Architect's site observations and
administration activities.
4. Submittals: The Architect and the Architect's consultants shall review
and approve, or take appropriate action upon Contractor's submittals
such as shop drawings, product data and samples, but only for the limited
purpose of checking for conformance with the design concept expressed
by the Drawings and Specifications.
