The figure in the image is a Hemisphere.

The surface area of a hemisphere is given as:


3\text{ }*\text{ }\pi\text{ }* r^2

Thus, the surface area is:


\begin{gathered} 3\text{ }*\text{ 3.142 }*8.6^2 \\ 697.15ft^2 \end{gathered}

Hence, the surface area of the figure, to the nearest whole number is 697 square feet.
