How do I get a Surface Water, Wetland, Right of Way, or Water Use permit from the SFWMD, and how long is it likely to take?
The South Florida Water Management District is bound by rules that require our permit application reviewers to act within 30 days of receiving an application. Permits are often held up because the applicant didn’t provide all the necessary information. Permit reviewers are happy to host a pre-application meeting, during which the applicant and reviewer can work through many of the details often missing from permit applications. Get more information, including detailed rules, required forms and more at SFWMD Permitting.
