Appendix_6_FDOT_Permit_Certification_Memo__02-24-2026.pdf

This is a Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Permit Certification Memorandum prepared for the Ridgemoor Boulevard and Brooker Creek Bridge #154153 Bridge Replacement Project administered by Pinellas County. The project involves the replacement of a 120-foot flat slab bridge with a 135-foot structure, along with associated roadway and drainage improvements. This is a federally funded Local Agency Program (LAP) project managed through FDOT. The memorandum documents permit certifications and compliance requirements necessary to authorize construction activities and ensure the project meets all regulatory obligations and environmental standards before proceeding with implementation.

The permit certification memo serves as formal documentation that all required permits and environmental clearances have been obtained or satisfied for the bridge replacement project. This certification is essential for a federally funded project as it demonstrates compliance with federal, state, and local permitting requirements, including environmental review and approval processes. The memorandum enables Pinellas County to proceed with construction activities while maintaining accountability to FDOT and ensuring the project meets all applicable regulatory standards for the replacement structure and associated improvements.
