Section 7 Environmental Effects of the Selected Plan

EAA Storage Reservoirs Revised Draft PIR and EIS February 2006

7-26

2. Railroad Bridges - Three railroad bridges would be affected by the

increased conveyance requirements for the NNR and Miami Canals. One

railroad bridge crosses the NNR and two cross the Miami Canal. The

bridge across the NNR is owned by Florida East Coast Railway (F.E.C.

RY.). Of the two bridges across the Miami Canal, one is owned by U.S.

Sugar Corp; the second is owned by Seaboard System Railroad.

Replacement of the affected bridges will be in close coordination with the

owners and to the applicable railroad design and construction standards.

An attempt to maintain railroad traffic across the NNR and Miami Canals

will depend on rerouting shipments where possible, during the demolition

and construction of any of the impacted bridges. In the case that traffic

can not be rerouted or maintained in any other way, a temporary bridge

will be erected beside the existing bridge during the construction of the

new bridge.

3. Privately Owned Agricultural Traffic Bridges

- Nine privately owned

bridges would be affected by the increased conveyance requirement for the

NNR. Two privately owned bridges would be affected by the increased

conveyance requirement of the Miami Canal. Five privately owned

bridges will be affected by the increased conveyance requirement of the

Cross Canal. One privately owned bridge will be affected by the

conveyance requirement of the Bolles Canal. These bridges will be

replaced in kind, type and size, and meeting present day FDOT standards

and requirements. The bridges will be replaced in a manner that will

interrupt traffic for the agricultural haulers and vehicular traffic as little

as possible. There are enough bridges and they are close enough to each

other that traffic can be rerouted. Traffic on the levees along the canal

banks is an everyday event and we do not foresee problems with rerouting

traffic through other bridges while others are being replaced.

4. Pump Station Intake Structures and Other Control Structures - There are

many of these categories of structures that will need to be replaced due to

the canal improvement work. Each structure will be replaced with the

same type, capacity and operationally sound structure. Interim pumps

will be provided for critical water supply canals during normal flow

interruption.

7.20.2 Utility Re-Alignments

Utility relocation is anticipated in conjunction with the replacement of two

bridges. Fiber optic communication lines are attached to one bridge, and a water

main to the other. Relocation of utilities attached to bridges will be included as

part of the bridge construction project. A high voltage electrical transmission

line, and an aerial electrical distribution line and telephone line will also require

relocation due to canal improvements near Lake Okeechobee. Relocation of an

overhead electrical distribution line and telephone line that crosses through the
