Florida unveils on-line water permitting portal

The Florida Department of Environmental Protection, along with the state’s five water management districts, have launched Florida’s Water Permitting Portal

The portal, which can be found at flwaterpermits.com provides information about all water resource permitting in Florida in one place for residents and businesses to go to determine what permits may be needed and from which agency.

The water permitting portal also enables users to apply for commonly issued authorizations, permits, certifications and renewals, pay fees and submit monitoring reports and other compliance documentation.

Some of the permits you can apply for at the site include Environmental Resource Permits, Consumptive and Water Use Permits and Well Construction Permits.

Applicants are able to apply for permits by submitting the application and associated materials online instead of having to submit paper copies to the Department.

This will hopefully save time and money for applicants as well as staff. 

In addition to eliminating the cost of printing and mailing permit application documents, application fees for online submittals are reduced, and are entirely eliminated for self-certifications.  

Florida’s Water Permitting Portal again can be found at flwaterpermits.com.
