How It Works
From initial assessment to permit-ready plans in Moore Haven.
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.
Why Moore Haven Properties Need Commercial Storm Water Management
Limited commercial development in Glades County still requires SFWMD-compliant stormwater management, particularly for properties in the Lake Okeechobee watershed where nutrient loading restrictions apply.
Local Factors in Moore Haven
- Lake Okeechobee TMDL requirements for water quality treatment
- Limited commercial development infrastructure
- Extremely high water table conditions throughout the county
Glades County Soil & Drainage Profile
Glades County soils are almost entirely poorly drained, reflecting the county's low-lying position adjacent to Lake Okeechobee. The seasonal high water table is within 12 inches of the surface across most of the county.
As one of Florida's least populated counties, Glades County has minimal stormwater infrastructure and limited permitting resources. Most drainage projects are on rural residential or agricultural properties where the primary challenge is managing the extremely high water table — often within inches of the surface during the wet season. Property-level pump stations are common for lakefront properties in Moore Haven.
