Stormwater Inspections
Florida's NPDES Construction Generic Permit (FLR10) is administered by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection for construction activities disturbing one or more acres. The permit includes numeric turbidity limitations that are among the most restrictive in the Southeast. Florida's high rainfall intensity, shallow water tables, and sensitive wetland ecosystems require comprehensive stormwater management during construction.
