Pursuant to Executive Order 11988 and 44 CFR Part 9.12, final notice is hereby given of FEMA’s intent to provide funding for this project under the Public Assistance (PA) Program.
An initial disaster-wide Public Notice was published October 06, 2017 for Hurricane Irma. Comments and other information received were fully evaluated by FEMA along with evaluation of social, economic, environmental, and safety considerations. This notice serves as a project-specific final notice for FEMA’s funding action located within the floodplain.
Funding for the proposed project will be conditional upon compliance with all applicable federal, tribal, state and local laws, regulations, floodplain standards, permit requirements and conditions. This action complies with the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) requirements.
Responsible Entity: FEMA Public Assistance (PA) Program
Applicant: Miami-Dade County
Project Title(s): PA-04-FL-4337-PW-07755; [37605] PROS - Golf Courses
Location of Proposed Work: 6700 Crandon Blvd., Key Biscayne, FL 33149 (25.71642, -80.15891)
Floodplain: Project is located in the AE Zone, otherwise known as the 100-year floodplain, per Miami-Dade County FIRM Panel #’s 12086C0483L, 12086C0481L, 12086C0483L, 12086C0484L dated 09/11/2009.
Proposed Work and Purpose: Miami-Dade County has completed replacing bunker sand, irrigation clocks, gypsum, fertilizer, soil conditioner, safety netting, irrigation pump motors, a canopy cover, metal doors, and brick pavers. No hazard mitigation project is proposed.
Project Alternatives: The alternative that has been considered is the no action alternative. This alternative is not feasible as the area will remain vulnerable to property damage and hazards to human safety. The no action alternative would adversely impact social and economic resources for the community. Alternate locations were not considered as the damaged elements are part of a larger facility that serves an open space and recreational usage.
Comments: This will serve as the final public notice regarding the above-described action funded by the FEMA PA program. Interested persons may submit comments, questions, or request a map of this specific project by writing to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Region 4, 3003 Chamblee-Tucker Road, Atlanta, Georgia 30341 or by emailing [email protected].
