Additionally, Cummins Cederberg would like to provide the Client with a living shoreline design handbook that would include conceptual sections of various styles of living shoreline appropriate for various FDEP District, permitting checklists, and cost estimating tools. As this Project proceeds and based upon communication with the Client, additional scoped tasks may be offered for consideration.
