Program overview
Water Well Construction Permitting and Contractor Licensing
Related Publications
The water well construction permitting and contractor licensing program was delegated to the St. Johns River Water Management District by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) in 1984. The District established construction standards and reporting requirements, by rule, to ensure that newly constructed water wells do not cause uncontrolled water flow or degrade water quality. The District issues licenses to water well contractors to ensure their understanding of state and District water well rules and regulations. The District also issues water well construction permits and special condition permits in FDEP-delineated groundwater contamination areas (Chapter 62-524, Florida Administrative Code). The District’s Division of Permit Data Services provides integrated administrative support through data and document management.
