Services

Engineering for Florida's waterfront.

Design, permitting, and construction administration. From pre-application to closeout.

The Disciplines

Three disciplines, one team, one goal.


Design, permitting, and construction administration.

Coastal

Docks, shoreline stabilization, CCCL permitting, dune restoration, and marina expansion. The technical work that keeps Florida's waterfront moving and its coast standing through the next storm.

Example project:
Shoreline stabilization
Agencies:
Federal, state & local

Civil

Stormwater management and water resource engineering, building department permitting and coordination, and topographic and bathymetric surveying. Engineering that gets the project entitled and through the gate.

Example project:
Site development
Agencies:
Local municipality

Environmental

Environmental site assessments, benthic and submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) surveys, wetland delineation, and wetland mitigation assessments (UMAMs). The field data that backs every permit and design decision.

Example project:
Wetland delineation
Agencies:
State & federal

Capabilities

The full scope, start to finish.


Permitting, environmental surveys, and construction oversight. The detailed work behind every Blue Arc project.

Permitting


We help move projects from concept to approval by preparing permit applications, coordinating with reviewing agencies, and maintaining professional agency relationships that keep communication clear throughout the review process.

  • ›Coastal Construction Control Line (CCCL) Permitting
  • ›Environmental Resource Permitting (ERP)
  • ›Verification of an Exemption Authorization
  • ›Marina, Dock, Shoreline, & Maintenance Dredge Permitting
  • ›Frontal Dune System Restoration
  • ›Beach Dune Walkover Permitting and Restoration
  • ›Hurricane Recovery and Emergency Permitting
  • ›FEMA Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) Permitting
  • ›FEMA Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) Permitting
  • ›Federal, State, and Local Municipality Permitting

Environmental Surveys & Assessments


We provide the field data, habitat evaluations, and site assessments needed to support permitting and design decisions that lead to more effective, long-lasting, and sustainable coastal development.

  • ›Bathymetric and Topographic Surveying
  • ›Wetland Delineation & Mitigation Assessments
  • ›Seagrass, Mangrove, and Marine Habitat Mapping and Assessments
  • ›Protected and Endangered Species Assessments
  • ›Coastal Resiliency & Shoreline Stabilization Assessments
  • ›Shoreline Erosion and Accretion Assessments
  • ›Erosion and Accretion Rate Analysis
  • ›Marina, Dock, and Shoreline Feasibility Studies
  • ›Marina, Dock, and Shoreline Inspections

Construction Administration & Monitoring


We support projects after permit approval through quality bid coordination, construction administration, and site observation services that help confirm structural integrity, permit compliance, and client satisfaction.

  • ›Marina, Dock, and Shoreline Stabilization Planning and Design
  • ›Storm Surge and Flood Resiliency Design
  • ›Engineered Construction Level Plans and Specifications
  • ›Construction Administration
  • ›Bid Coordination
  • ›Construction Management
  • ›Construction Monitoring and Permit Compliance
  • ›Turbidity Monitoring

Agency Fluency

We know your reviewer.


Every Florida permit runs through a specific agency, and every agency has its own reviewers, submittal standards, and unwritten expectations. We have spent years working through all of them.

  • ›FDEP: Environmental Resource Permitting, CCCL, and coastal review.
  • ›USACE: Federal dredge-and-fill and navigable-waters authorization.
  • ›FWC: Protected species and marine wildlife coordination.
  • ›FWS: Federal listed-species consultation.
  • ›FEMA: Floodplain review, LOMR and CLOMR permitting.
  • ›EPC: Environmental Protection Commission review where required.
  • ›Florida Water Management Districts: Stormwater and water resource permitting statewide.
  • ›Florida Local Municipalities: Building department permitting and county-reviewer coordination.

How We Work

From pre-application to closeout.


1

Pre-application

We meet the agency early and confirm exactly what the file needs.

2

Design

Engineered plans and specifications built to permit and to build.

3

Permitting

Complete submittals, agency coordination, and follow-up until approval.

4

Construction Administration

Bid coordination and site observation that keep the build to spec and in compliance.

5

Closeout

Final inspection, certification, and compliance sign-off.
