This document is a set of utility easement maps from Sarasota County Public Utilities, specifically focusing on a gopher tortoise relocation project along Longwood Dr. Boulevard near Parcel ID 0016130001. The maps illustrate a utility work area defined by yellow dashed lines, with green pins indicating approximate locations of gopher tortoise burrows. The scope of work requires clearing the red dashed lines of gopher tortoises in preparation for utility construction.

The project involves hiring an Authorized Gopher Tortoise Agent to perform all necessary work and permitting for temporarily relocating gopher tortoises from the utility construction site. The selected vendor will be responsible for applying for and obtaining a relocation permit from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), and subsequently capturing and excluding tortoises from the site in strict accordance with FWC permitting guidelines. The maps provide detailed aerial views of the project area, showing residential and wooded terrain where the utility easement and gopher tortoise relocation will take place.
