Our Process

How It Works

From initial assessment to permit-ready plans in Daytona Beach.

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.

Why Daytona Beach Properties Need Commercial Storm Water Management

Volusia County's commercial corridors along US-1, I-95, and International Speedway Boulevard serve both the tourism economy and the rapidly growing residential population. Commercial stormwater must address both routine rainfall and nor'easter events that produce significantly different flooding patterns.

Volusia County Regulatory Note SJRWMD Environmental Resource Permits required. Halifax River and Tomoka River watershed TMDL limits affect water quality treatment requirements.

Local Factors in Daytona Beach

  • Bowl-shaped topography in the Area of Concern traps stormwater — Nova Canal reverses flow during high Halifax River levels, pushing airport and road runoff into 8,000 residents' neighborhoods
  • Navy Canal (built 1940s for Naval Air Station) now carries Daytona Beach International Airport runoff through residential areas — Volusia County maintains but capacity is limited
  • Tourism corridor stormwater management
  • Halifax River TMDL limits
  • Coastal and inland commercial areas face different challenges

Volusia County features coastal dune sands along the Atlantic that provide moderate drainage, poorly drained flatwoods Spodosols in the interior, and organic wetland soils along the St. Johns River floodplain. The dramatic variation across the narrow county width means drainage solutions vary significantly from coast to river.

Volusia County's east-west cross-section illustrates nearly every drainage challenge in Florida: Atlantic Ocean storm surge at the coast, Intracoastal waterway tidal flooding, poorly drained flatwoods in the interior, and St. Johns River flooding on the west side. A drainage engineer working across the county must adapt designs to dramatically different conditions within a 20-mile distance.

Local Cost Factors for Commercial Storm Water Management in Daytona Beach

Coastal properties require specialized materials resistant to saltwater corrosion
Barrier island access limits equipment size and increases mobilization time
Nor'easter damage creates surge demand for emergency drainage repair services
