The property is located on Sanibel, in Lee County, Florida. The project consists of developing a single family residence on the existing lot. During the field survey on the property, several gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus) burrows were located. As a result of gopher tortoises being identified on the property, protection requirements of the Sanibel LDC require that a Gopher Tortoise Management Plan be provided. An Under 10 Burrow Relocation Permit was also obtained from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) to relocate the tortoises out of the development area of the driveway and house.

A Management Plan was submitted to the City of Cape Coral which addressed the work activities and the plan to address the work in the vicinity of the eagle nest during nesting season. Eagle monitoring in accordance with the FWC and FWS requirements was conducted during the proposed work.

Recommendations were made based on the timing of construction and site design. If needed, an incidental take permit for the nest/burrow would be applied for with Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC).
