How It Works
From initial assessment to permit-ready plans in Loxahatchee.
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 Loxahatchee Properties Need Commercial Storm Water Management
Commercial properties along the I-95 corridor from Jupiter to Boca Raton generate significant impervious surface runoff that must be managed to SFWMD Environmental Resource Permit standards. Shopping centers, office parks, and HOA communities throughout Palm Beach County face aging stormwater infrastructure that was designed to earlier standards and is no longer adequate for current regulatory requirements — particularly the enhanced water quality treatment needed to protect Lake Worth Lagoon and the Loxahatchee River.
Local Factors in Loxahatchee
- Dual drainage district jurisdiction — ITID covers eastern portions while Acme Improvement District covers western areas, requiring coordination for projects spanning both
- Rural lots predominantly on private wells and septic systems — drainage design must account for septic drainfield setbacks and wellhead protection zones
- SFWMD Environmental Resource Permits required for most commercial stormwater modifications
- Lake Worth Lagoon TMDL limits affect discharge water quality requirements
- Multi-jurisdictional permitting across 39 municipalities with different requirements
Palm Beach County Soil & Drainage Profile
Eastern Palm Beach County features poorly drained sandy soils with high organic content near the coast, while the western Everglades Agricultural Area (EAA) contains deep muck soils (Histosols) that subside when drained. The sandy soils have moderate-to-rapid permeability but are underlain by a shallow limestone aquifer that limits vertical drainage.
Palm Beach County's Fill and Grading Ordinance (PB-O-128) is one of the strictest in Florida — any fill placement that could alter surface water flow patterns requires a permit with engineer-stamped grading plans. This regulation directly impacts residential drainage projects because even minor regrading of yards requires professional engineering documentation.
