Our Process

How It Works

From initial assessment to permit-ready plans in Brooksville.

1

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.

2

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.

3

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.

4

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.

Hernando County soils range from poorly drained flatwoods Spodosols along the coast to well-drained deep sands on the Brooksville Ridge. The ridge soils are underlain by karst limestone with active spring systems that connect surface drainage to the Floridan Aquifer.

Hernando County's spring systems — including Weeki Wachee Springs — connect directly to the Floridan Aquifer through karst conduits. This means stormwater that infiltrates in Spring Hill or Brooksville can rapidly enter the drinking water supply and discharge to the springs. SWFWMD imposes strict nitrogen loading limits on stormwater infiltration within spring protection zones, requiring enhanced water quality treatment in drainage system design.
