Distributed WasteWater Treatment Systems
Summary
On May 19, 2025, the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida ordered the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) to cease issuing new onsite sewage treatment and disposal systems (septic systems) permits within the North Indian River Lagoon (IRL) Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP) beginning July 17, 2025. The court ordered FDEP to change how it administers wastewater permits while it develops a federally approved Habitat Conservation Plan and obtains an incidental Take Permit. This effectively halted new construction in areas of the North IRL watershed where central sewer service is not available.
