| Abstract: | The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Jacksonville District (USACE) has prepared this Environmental Assessment (EA) in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to evaluate alternative sources of sand for the Hurricane and Storm Damage Reduction (HSDR) Project at Lido Key, Sarasota County, Florida project (“Lido Key”). The beach erosion control project was authorized for Lido Key by Section 101 of the River and Harbor Act of 1970. The project provided for initial restoration and periodic nourishment for 1.56 miles of shoreline. The City of Sarasota completed the northern half of the project in 1970 with no Federal participation. The Federally authorized project was never completed and was de-authorized by Section 1001(b) of the Water Resources Development Act of 1986 and reauthorized by Section 364(2) of the Water Resources Development Act of 1999. The Water Resources Development Act of 2007 directed the Secretary to construct the project substantially in accordance with the Chief of Engineers report dated December 22, 2004, which is based on an October 2002 Feasibility Study, updated with an addendum in 2004 The environmental effects of sand placement at Lido Key are covered in the 2002 Lido Key HSDR Feasibility Study (with 2004 Addendum) and Environmental Assessment (EA) and are incorporated by reference. This document will update the prior evaluation of sand sources based on new information. |
