How It Works
From initial assessment to permit-ready plans in Marco Island.
Our engineers inspect your property's stormwater infrastructure, evaluate drainage performance, identify problem areas, and document existing system components. We photograph conditions and collect data needed for engineering analysis.
We obtain original permit documents, as-built drawings, and maintenance records from agencies and property files. This historical data reveals design intent, permitted capacities, and any modifications that may have occurred since construction.
Using field data and record documents, our Licensed Professional Engineers perform hydrologic and hydraulic analysis, design system improvements or new infrastructure, and prepare construction-ready drawings with detailed specifications.
We prepare and submit all required permit applications — including SFWMD ERPs, county building permits, and FDEP authorizations. Our team manages reviewer correspondence and resolves comments to keep approvals on track.
Local Requirements for Commercial Storm Water Management
Why Marco Island Properties Need Commercial Storm Water Management
Commercial properties in Collier County — from Naples' high-end retail corridors to Immokalee's agricultural processing facilities — must meet Big Cypress Basin stormwater criteria that are more complex than standard SFWMD requirements. The watershed management plan requires that commercial development maintain the natural hydroperiod, which means engineers must model not just peak flow but the timing and duration of water retention.
Local Factors in Marco Island
- Barrier island surrounded by tidal waterways on all sides — storm surge approaches from Gulf, bays, and canals simultaneously during hurricanes
- Elevated tides raise canal stages and groundwater, reducing drainage capacity — saltwater intrusion strains outfall systems and limits freshwater infiltration
- Big Cypress Basin criteria require hydroperiod modeling beyond simple retention calculations
- Rookery Bay and Naples Bay water quality standards affect commercial discharge
- Hurricane rebuild commercial properties face updated flood code requirements
Collier County Soil & Drainage Profile
Collier County's western coastal areas feature sandy soils over shallow limestone, while eastern areas near the Everglades contain organic muck soils. The Big Cypress Basin watershed creates unique hydrological conditions where sheet flow across vast areas must be maintained by drainage system design.
Collier County's proximity to the Big Cypress National Preserve and the Everglades means that stormwater drainage cannot simply be "moved away" — it must be managed to maintain the natural sheet flow that sustains these ecosystems. SFWMD's Big Cypress Basin criteria require that post-development discharge mimics pre-development hydroperiod, which is a more complex engineering standard than simple volume matching.
