Indian River Lagoon Basin Management Action Plans

The Indian River Lagoon Protection Program (section 373.4597, F.S.), provides for additional requirements, projects, and water quality monitoring to further efforts identified in the three BMAPs and Mosquito Lagoon RAP to meet water quality standards and restore seagrass in the IRL. The law also requires the BMAPs to be evaluated and updated every five years with implementation milestones with strategies and projects and sufficient water quality monitoring to evaluate whether reasonable progress in pollutant load reductions is being achieved over time.
