Camino Reale DRI is a ±4,200-acre project in southern Orange County, Fla. Bio-Tech Consulting is in the process of finalizing a Conservation Area Determination with Orange County Environmental Division on approximately 2,300 acres of the site. Additionally, we are pursuing a Formal Wetland Determination through the South Florida Water Management District and seeking approval of a Development of Regional Impact (DRI) for the northern 1,032 acres of the site.
DRI will include ±358 acres of wetland and ±76 acres of upland preservation. The project includes extensive wildlife surveys to identify protected species, including gopher tortoises and Florida Sandhill Cranes. BTC will continue to pursue permits from the FFWCC for gopher tortoises, SWFMWD for an Environmental Resource Permit (ERP), Orange County Environmental Resource Division for a Conservation Area Impact Permit, and the Army Corp of Engineers for a Dredge and Fill Permit.
