Received A Stormwater Notice of Violation (NOV)?

If you’ve received a Stormwater NOV for your commercial property, facility, or HOA, don’t wait. Fines and enforcement actions can escalate quickly.

Stormwater ponds and Best Management Practices (BMPs) throughout the Tampa area are regulated by the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). A Notice of Violation is typically issued when a pond fails inspection, lacks maintenance, or shows signs of erosion, overgrowth, or sediment buildup.

  • Assess your stormwater system or pond for compliance issues

  • Develop a custom corrective action plan within your budget

  • Complete pond repairs and maintenance to meet SWFMD standards

Aquatic Planting &
Vegetation Management

Aquatic plants are a key design element in stormwater ponds and wetlands to help with settling and removal of solids and pollutants. However, aquatic plant requirements and installation can be complex and costly. We install beneficial native plants that improve water quality and aesthetics, while treating your pond to meet SWFMD regulatory standards.
