Statement of Function
The Stormwater Division is charged with reducing to the maximum extent practicable, the pollution of the
Indian River Lagoon caused by stormwater runoff and base groundwater flow. It is also responsible for insuring
that Indian River County complies with the requirements of the federally mandated National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II Permit criteria. These goals are accomplished through the design,
construction, and management of regional stormwater pollution control systems; through education programs;
and through sediment and erosion control enforcement and monitoring.
