This is a Geotechnical Report prepared for the City of Cocoa, Florida in connection with the Cocoa Waterfront Dock and Breakwater project (Lee Wenner Day Docks) located at Lee Wenner Park, 300 Riveredge Blvd., Cocoa, FL 32922. The report was completed in January 2019 and provides geotechnical investigation and analysis necessary to support the design and construction of a new day-slip marina facility. The investigation includes subsurface exploration, soil and sediment sampling, laboratory testing, and geotechnical analysis to characterize site conditions and determine appropriate foundation design requirements for the permanent concrete docks, finger piers, marine piles, and associated components of the facility. The geotechnical findings and recommendations presented in this report serve as a foundational component of the bid documents and technical specifications required for contractors to develop accurate cost estimates and construction methodologies for this waterfront improvement project.

The geotechnical report provides essential engineering data regarding soil composition, bearing capacity, pile capacity, and environmental conditions at the project site necessary for qualified contractors to bid on the construction work. This technical information is critical for establishing realistic pricing, determining appropriate construction methods and equipment, and ensuring compliance with applicable marine construction standards and Florida coastal regulations. The project is being funded in part by a Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND) grant, which likely establishes specific technical and environmental compliance requirements that contractors must address based on the geotechnical conditions documented in this report.
