5. Environmental Experience
40 years of local knowledge and expertise
Project area is within environmental habitat for protected species (Gopher Tortoise and Skinks)
Fish & Wildlife (FWS) and the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) coordination.

6. City Project
Design and permitting of new rapid infiltration basin (RIB) in the vicinity of the Southern Dunes golf course to:
Provide additional effluent disposal capacity
Supplement existing reclaimed water system
Provide expanded wet weather disposal options
