The proposed funding source for the remaining survey, environmental assessment (if needed), design & construction plans will be from grants from various sources including the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Florida Trails, ORAC, Florida Department of Transportation TAP, BP funds, Bill Gates Foundation, U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration Recreational Trails Program, etc. etc. 2. HDR states the construction costs are more likely $200,000 per mile – this is based on FDOT planning data - as there will be little to no right of way purchases. We are passionate about this project and will search for grants from various sources including the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Florida Trails, ORAC, Florida Department of Transportation TAP, BP funds, Bill Gates Foundation, U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration Recreational Trails Program, etc. etc. 3. We propose that annual maintenance and repair be a partnership with Okaloosa County, the Tourist Development Department and the US Air Force. (who is seeking partnerships within
