St. Lucie County Soil & Drainage Profile
St. Lucie County soils are predominantly poorly drained Spodosols (flatwoods soils) with a cemented organic hardpan that limits deep percolation. The county's rapid development on these historically agricultural soils requires careful stormwater engineering to prevent flooding.
St. Lucie County's explosive growth — Port St. Lucie grew from a small community to over 217,000 residents — has transformed thousands of acres of agricultural land into residential subdivisions. This land use change dramatically alters surface water runoff patterns, increasing both the volume and velocity of stormwater flow. Every new development requires engineered stormwater systems that match pre-development discharge rates.
