Please use caution when opening attachments or clicking links. <br />Good news, Peter. <br />The FWC bill that passed this past legislative session is moving that NDZ ball forward. As of July 1, 2021, Section 19. <br />Section 327.521, Florida Statutes, was created to read: <br />"327.521 No -discharge zones.— (1) Effective immediately upon approval by the United States Environmental <br />Protection Agency of a no -discharge zone determination for the waters of the United States within the boundaries of <br />aquatic preserves identified in s. 258.39, all waters of this state within such areas are designated no -discharge zones <br />within which a person may not discharge sewage of any type, whether treated or untreated, from any vessel or floating <br />structure." <br />The Aquatic Preserves cover all of the IRL in IRC: Indian River -Malabar to Vero Beach Aquatic Preserve and Indian <br />River -Vero Beach to Ft. Pierce Aquatic Preserve <br />I'm not sure which FWC staff person is taking the lead to work with EPA. But you might try: Boating and Waterways <br />Section within the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission: Waterway.
