COASTAL & MARINE SERVICES
Birkitt has provided services for extensive coastal and marine projects throughout Florida. Services have included design of shoreline protection efforts including surveying, environmental, engineering, and geotechnical services to complete conceptual and construction designs; development of detailed water quality and construction monitoring plans to ensure protection of water quality and coral reef, seagrass, and other benthic habitats. Sea turtle and manatee protection and monitoring plans have also been developed.Projects such as the Tractebel Calypso pipeline that was proposed to cross from the Bahamas to Port Everglades in Florida and the 753-mile Gulfstream Natural Gas Pipeline Project that was constructed from Mississippi/Alabama to Port Manatee in Florida required detailed assessment of construction methodology and potential impacts to freshwater, estuarine, and marine habitat as well as negotiation of habitat mitigation plans in sensitive areas and environmental permits. Birkitt is managing a coastal shoreline stabilization, restoration, and protection project the City of Tampa (Rivergarden Project). The project includes the design of 2500 linear feet of shoreline along tidal portions of the Hillsborough River. Birkitt is also providing project management, siting assistance, environmental, geotechnical, and surveying oversight, mitigation, and water quality and permitting services for a 374-slip proposed marina in north central Florida.
