<br /> frequency distribution macro-invertebrate density, and fish diversity, size, density
<br /> and biomass)to quantify marine resources in the proposed dredge and fill areas and
<br /> other areas that may be impacted indirectly. Supported NOAA-NMFS, USFWS,
<br /> and Department of Transportation consultations and consisted of a MSA, EFH
<br /> assessment, ESA Section 7 consultation, DA permit and amendment preparation,

<br /> the least amount of impact to marine resources. Prepared a coral transplantation
<br /> plan and worked with commercial divers to transplant corals. A post construction
<br /> assessment was conducted immediately following completion of the project work
<br /> at each pier, and a one-, three-, and five- year postconstruction assessment of
<br /> transplanted corals was conducted. Long-term monitoring to evaluate success was
