NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION: 

1. A description of each activity, including the need, purpose, objective(s), milestones and location. Include map showing the location 

of each activity. 

All supplemental information will be located at the following website:

http://www.levycounty.org/restoreact.aspx

Project 1: Project ACE (Ambassadors for Conservation Education) 

Description: The project consists of a series of Open House access days at Seahorse Key, a 165 acre island off Cedar Key 

that is part of the Cedar Keys National Wildlife Refuge, to encourage local residents and visitors to experience and enjoy 

Levy County’s marine resources. Eight well-publicized events will be staffed by local experts. Light refreshments and 

transportation will be provided. The University of Florida and Santa Fe College operate the Seahorse Key Marine Lab in 

partnership. The project is consistent with the Cedar Keys Wildlife Refuge Conservation Plan that governs both Santa Fe 

College and University of Florida at Seahorse Key that requires both entities to engage the public and provide an increase 

awareness of the importance of the Gulf of Mexico and the islands. (Per Objective 3.4 of the plan includes providing 

wildlife observation, interpretation, and photography opportunities throughout the year for 30,000 visitors annually, while 

protecting important coastal habitat and water quality.) Natural resources will be protected by engaging more visitors in 

coastal awareness activities at Seahorse Key during Open Houses and enabling environmental restorations through 

resource protection at other times of the year. Open house events at Seahorse Key are designed to attract new visitors to 

Levy County to increase the number of tourism and seafood consumption. Marketing and advertising will extend to the 

North Central Florida region and beyond. The use of themes for Open Houses will enable the focus on targeted audiences 

that may have never visited the area. This proposal can be considered a first phase in an ambitious plan to expand visitor 

access to Seahorse and Cedar Keys. 

Eligible Activity: Implementation of a federally approved marine, coastal, or comprehensive conservation management 

plan, including fisheries monitoring 
Need: Lay the foundation to increase the awareness of the importance of the Gulf of Mexico.

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to host Open House events that will be consistent with the Memorandum of 

Understanding conservation plan. 

Objective: The objective of this project is to attract larger crowds to the well-publicized open house events to spread as 

much awareness for the importance of the Gulf of Mexico to Levy County and Cedar Key. 

Milestones: Marketing and advertising, completion of eight open house events. 

Project 2: Inner Marina Maintenance Dredging 

Description: The project consists of dredging and building support infrastructure improvements within the Inner Marina. 

FDOT plans to raise the C Street channel bridge four feet, which places the City in a unique position to restore its facilities 

to accommodate larger vessels in greater numbers than previously possible. 

Eligible Activity: Infrastructure projects benefitting the economy or ecological resources, including port infrastructure 

Need: Dredging of the Inner Marina is paramount to the continuation of tourism and local aquaculture industry. The 

marina is now available for only limited use dependent on tide due to high silting. This is directly impacting charter industry 

and local fishermen. Without near term action, Marina clients may vacate the Marina causing additional harm to the local 

economy. The development of support infrastructure in the form of water and electric connections for new slips and docks 

will provide the ability for the community to sustain and grow the vital related tourism, fishing, and commercial 

aquaculture industries. New facilities will provide greater public access and reduce stress on limited launch facilities. 

Current facilities are crowded and limit ability to increase users and revenue which results in negative impacts to the 

community, city and county economies. Additional information can be found at the Levy County Restore Act website: 

http://www.levycounty.org/restoreact.aspx. 

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to dredge and build supporting infrastructure improvements within the Inner 

Marina. 

Objective: The objective of this project is to increase access to the Gulf in the Inner Marina and increase the economic 

viability of tourism and commercial interests within Levy County. 

Milestones: Engineering, design, permitting, construction, dredging. 

Project 3: Withlacoochee Gulf Preserve Equipment and Materials 

Description: This project is aimed at securing materials and equipment to enhance the visitors’ experiences at the 

Withlacoochee Gulf Preserve (WGP) to facilitate a greater understanding of the importance of implementing conservation 

management plans to protect the natural resources of the Nature Coast. The 4500 sq. ft. Ellie Schiller Education Center will 

be equipped with virtual information aids, quality microscope stations to assist researchers and enquiring minds. Field 

equipment and supplies will be provide to enhance hands-on specimen gathering for visitors and field trip excursions. The 

WGP will promote their Education Center during their monthly informational programs and their newsletters with over 

500 interested followers. 

Eligible Activity: Promotion of tourism in the Gulf Coast Region, including recreational fishing

Schiller Education Center. 

Objective: The objective of this project is to increase tourism of the Withlacoochee Gulf Preserve. 

Milestones: Material Acquisition, Material Setup, Promotion of project at monthly informational programs. 

Project 4: Lower Withlacoochee Environmental Study 

Description: The Lower Withlacoochee River is now on the FDEP Impaired Waters List (303d). Associated degradation has 

resulted in the reduced biological productivity and adverse economic impact. Withlacoochee Aquatic Restoration (WAR) 

will be a sub recipient for the subject project study to identify causes of the degradation and potential restoration 

alternatives. Specifically conducting a 2-year monthly sample analysis for water, sediments, system flow and bathymetric 

evaluation. The project is complementary to the state’s ongoing data collection programs and supports legal obligations to 

preserve adopted water quality standards of Outstanding Florida Waters. This will accelerate identification of restoration 

options, which may include remedy of pollution by point and non-point sources and/or reduced system flow. Phases 1 and 

2 of three phases have been completed. WAR will complete Phase 3 with the requested funding. This phase includes the 

determination of remediation/restoration project based on the information gathered in Phases 1 and 2. Expenses for 

supplemental investigation prompted by Phase 2 data collection, if any, will be minor and funded by WAR. 

Eligible Activity: Planning assistance for future restoration projects. 

Need: The Lower Withlacoochee River is on the FDEP Impaired Waters List (303d). Associated degradation has resulted in 

the reduced biological productivity and adverse economic impact. 

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to complete a comprehensive analysis of causal factors for diminished biological 

productivity in the Lower Withlacoochee River through examination of historical data (Phase 1), project data collection 

(Phase 2) and develop remediation/restoration projects (Phase 3) relevant to findings. 

Objective: The objective of this project to identify causes of degradation and develop future restoration projects 

Milestones: Sign sub-recipient agreement. Sub-recipient awards contracts. Draft report. Final report. Documentation of 

success. 

Project 5: Clam Trail in Cedar Key and Surrounding Area 

Description: This project will consist of large 5-foot tall fiberglass clams (starting at 4) painted and decorated by local artists 

and will be located along streets, at local businesses, and within county and state parks. Each clam will have a fact plaque 

that includes important information about the clam’s ecological and economic benefit to the coastal communities and 

waters of Levy County. Visitors to the Clam Trail will be guided by a trail map, which will provide locations of the clams and 

additional specific location information. People who follow the trail will find “clam clues” and “water wisdom” about 

shellfish, and how they improve coastal environments. Several approaches of how to follow the trail will be provided in the 

maps. Fact cards can be collected along the way. Visitors who collect the cards from all clams will be able to redeem a 

them for a waterproof, plastic container at selected businesses or chambers of commerce. To keep the information current 

and provide for additional trail maps and fact cards beyond the scope of the proposed project, advertising space could be 

solicited to offset future costs (design and printing). New clams could be added to the trail through sponsorship. The Cedar 

Key Aquaculture Association (CKAA) and the University of Florida IFAS Shellfish are in the process of obtaining official 

property agreements with the City of Cedar Key and Levy County to place the clams on public property. 

Eligible Activity: Promotion of tourism in the Gulf Coast Region, including recreational fishing. 
Need: The Cedar Key Aquaculture Association (CKAA) and the University of Florida IFAS Shellfish extension specialist have a 

proven track record in implementing and completing many projects, which have provided education and created 

awareness of industry to the public. 

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to construct 5-foot tall fiberglass clams that will be located along streets, at local 

businesses, and within county and state parks. Each clam will be decorated by local artists and have a fact plaque that 

includes important information about the clam’s ecological and economic benefit to the coastal communities and waters 

of Levy County. 

Objective: The objective of this project is to produce a fun, educational and public art place where visitors can come and 

learn about nature, biology and the circle of life, which will promote ecotourism, restaurants and other local businesses. 

Milestones: Design, construction, installation. 

Project 6: Cedar Key Wastewater Improvements 

Description: The Cedar Key Water and Sewer District desires to replace the District’s aerial wastewater pipe crossings over 

Gulf waters that have the potential for contaminating those waters. Specifically, there are wastewater collection pipes 

attached to Bridges 1, 2 and 3 leading into Cedar Key. This project plans to bury these pipes beneath bridges 1, 2 and 3 

with the use of directional drilling to avoid any possibility of the pipes being damaged by storm or collision and spilling 

wastewater into Cedar Key’s pristine Class II waters. 

Eligible Activity: Infrastructure projects benefitting the economy or ecological resources, including port infrastructure. 

Need: The clam aquaculture and oyster harvesting industries are vitally important to Cedar Key, and both rely on pristine 

Gulf waters. A wastewater leak into these waters could shut these industries down for indeterminate periods of time, and 

have potentially devastating impacts on the entire economy of Cedar Key. A leak would also have an indirect, but no doubt 

substantial impact on recreational fishing and tourism, two other vital industries to Cedar Key’s economic wellbeing. 

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to upgrade the District’s wastewater collection facilities where those facilities are 

over Gulf waters by burying the wastewater pipelines beneath bridge 1, 2 and 3. 

Objective: The objective of this project to avoid any possibility of the pipes being damaged by storm or collision and spilling 

wastewater into Cedar Key’s pristine Class II waters. 

Milestones: Engineering, design, permitting, construction. 

Project 7: Cedar Key Aquarium at Nature Coast Biological Station 

Description: Cedar Key Aquarium proposed to build and operate a moderate scale marine aquarium and environmental 

education center in Cedar Key. Operation of such a facility would provide long term positive impact for Cedar Key/Levy 

County through job creation in both the tourism industry and commercial seafood industry. Nature Coast Biological 

Station is under the umbrella of UF/IFAS and the station will be used by all departments in IFAS, which is the University of 

Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences which is one of seven colleges at the University and other colleges at UF. 

The facility would also provide unprecedented opportunities for environmental education specific to our ecosystem. This 

would be accomplished by targeting two primary groups: 1) Adults and families through paid admission 2) Kindergarten 

through 12th grade by partnering with existing educational components. All specimen would be taken from and 

representative of our local marine ecosystem. Plans call for touch tanks and interactive exhibits. Touch tanks would display 

rays, horseshoe crabs, whelks, fiddlers, etc. This area would also include exhibits depicting and explaining the local 

commercial seafood industry including clamming, oystering, and crabbing. The research and educational portion of the 

facility will include an auditorium with audiovisual capabilities and a laboratory. Work to be funded through RESTORE Act 
includes base floor retrofits to allow for installation of an aquarium and completion of third floor interior construction to 

provide meeting and training space for the public. Additional information can be found at the Levy County Restore Act 

website: http://www.levycounty.org/restoreact.aspx. 

Eligible Activity: Promotion of tourism in the Gulf Coast Region, including recreational fishing 

Need: An aquarium would increase the public’s ability to easily view and learn about coastal habitats and marine life, an 

experience that would normally require logistically challenging field trips. Initial exposure to marine life in an aquarium 

could lead to increased stewardship of coastal resources by helping the public build a connection with organisms that 

inhabit our coastal area. 

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to build and operate a moderate scale marine aquarium and environmental 

education center in Cedar Key. 

Objective: The objective of this project is to provide long term positive impact for Cedar Key/Levy County through the 

promotion of tourism. The project would also provide unprecedented opportunities for environmental education specific 

to our eco system for repeat tourism. 

Milestones: Engineering, design, permitting, construction. 

Project 8: Outdoor Electronic Touchscreen 24/7 KIOSK 

Description: The project consists of a 24/7 electronic touch-screen KIOSK, along with a table, benches, trash and recycling 

containers that would be located under a covered porch attached to the front of the Withlacoochee-Gulf Area Chamber of 

Commerce (Chamber) Building. The Chamber will be he subrecipient of the funds and responsible for procurement and 

maintenance of the KIOSK. The Chamber owns the existing land and will own and operate the KIOSK. Appropriate signage, 

landscaping, dawn-to-dusk lighting, as well as motion-activated video surveillance camera would also be installed. There 

will be no sub recipient, but there will be contracted labor. Chamber officers and volunteers would maintain the area and 

ensure that all information is appropriately updated and the area is kept clean and inviting. 

Eligible Activity: Promotion of tourism in the Gulf Coast Region, including recreational fishing. 

Need: The Chamber has been working diligently to establish partnerships in the area to promote ecotourism, but has no 

staff to assist visitors once they arrive. 

Purpose: The purpose of this project is to install an outdoor electronic touch-screen KIOSK to provide timely and accurate 

information to tourists in an easily accessible fashion, encouraging repeat tourism. 

Objective: The objective of this project is to promote eco-tourism in the Inglis/Yankeetown/South Levy area. 

Milestones: Material acquisition, material installation, setup and activation.
