CSA Coral Reef Restoration Florida Keys

In 1997 CSA International provided underwater inspection and construction review services in support of the coral reef restoration of the M/V ALEC OWEN MAITLAND and M/V ELPIS vessel grounding sites in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary off Key Largo, Florida. These services consisted of preparation for and execution of nearly continuous on-site review of contractor construction activities during reef restoration work at the grounding sites. CSA's primary responsibilities included advising the Project Engineer of Olsen Associates, Inc. and the Field Representative of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regarding the project, along with documenting and verifying project progress. Additional responsibilities included interfacing between the government's contractor for turbidity monitoring and alerting NOAA Sanctuary personnel of any potential environmental problems associated with the construction effort.
