ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: The Western Destin Beach Restoration Project includes the placement of approximately 831,000 cubic yards (cy) of beach quality sand along a 1.7-mile segment of the Okaloosa County coastline immediately east of Destin’s East Pass.

The fill placement area specifically excludes the Oceania Owner’s Association, Inc. members’ common elements property, which is located in the area between the two shoreline segments included in the restoration site described above, and as further reflected on sheet 12 of 17 of the approved permit drawings. The borrow area for this project is centered approximately 1.25 miles offshore of Okaloosa Island and 3 miles west of East Pass, within a relic ebb tidal delta in water depths of -36 to -51 feet, NAVD. The edge of the borrow area is within the designated Outstanding Florida Water boundary of the Gulf Islands National Seashore. PROPRIETARY AUTHORIZATION: This activity also requires a proprietary authorization, as the activity is located on sovereign submerged lands held in trust by the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund (Board of Trustees), pursuant to Article X, Section 11 of the Florida Constitution, and sections 253.002 and 253.77, F.S. The activity is not exempt from the need to obtain a proprietary authorization. The Board of Trustees delegated the Department the responsibility to review and take final action on this request for proprietary authorization in accordance with Rule 18-21.0051, F.A.C., and the Operating Agreements executed between the Department and the water management districts, as referenced in Chapter 62-113, F.A.C. In addition to the above, this proprietary authorization has been reviewed in accordance with Chapter 253, F.S., Chapter 18-21 and Rule 62-312.065, F.A.C., and the policies of the Board of Trustees. As staff to the Board of Trustees, the Department has reviewed the project described above, and has determined that both the use of the borrow area for up to 5 years and the fill placement on the beach qualify for a Letter of Consent to use sovereign, submerged lands, as long as the work performed is located within the boundaries as described herein and is consistent with the terms and conditions herein. Therefore, consent is hereby granted, pursuant to Chapter 253.77, F.S., to perform the activity on the specified sovereign submerged lands. COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT: This permit constitutes a finding of consistency with Florida’s Coastal Zone Management Program, as required by Section 307 of the Coastal Zone Management Act. This permit also constitutes certification of compliance with state water quality standards, outside of the expanded mixing zone, pursuant to Section 401 of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1341. OTHER PERMITS: Authorization from the Department does not relieve you from the responsibility of obtaining other permits (Federal, State, or local) that may be required for the project. When the Department received your permit application, a copy was sent to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for review. The USACE will issue their authorization directly to you, or contact you if additional information is needed. If you have not heard from the USACE within 30 days from the date that your application was received by the Department, contact the nearest USACE regulatory office for status and further information. Failure to obtain USACE authorization prior to construction could subject you to federal enforcement action by that agency. Joint Coastal Permit Western Destin Beach Restoration Permit No. 0286575-001-JC Page 3 of 26 AGENCY ACTION: The above named Permittee is hereby authorized to construct the work outlined in the activity description and activity location of this permit and shown on the approved permit drawings, plans and other documents attached hereto.
