FDOT District Five Districtwide Environmental Permitting

The FDOT District Five needed a firm to provide districtwide environmental permitting services on a continual contract for various projects across the District. 

DRMP continues to provide daily in-house environmental permitting services for this five-year contract.  Services include reviewing environmental permit applications and construction plans for all FDOT District Five roadway design projects, uploading comments onto the Electronic Review Comments (ERC) program, coordinating with FDOT staff to assist in project permit determinations, and obtaining Environmental Resource Permits (ERP) for in-house design projects. Other environmental as-needed services include jurisdictional wetland delineation, listed species surveys, coordination/consultation with various regulatory agencies and obtaining last-minute permits for minor works.

DRMP's biologists' experience and established relationships with regulatory agency staff assisted FDOT District Five to efficiently navigate the permitting process and overcome challenging environmental constraints with the added benefit of minimizing delays to the project schedule.
