Why does DEP's Division of State Lands' Bureau of Appraisal maintain a list of appraisers when the Department of Business and Professional Regulation provides a list of all state licensed and certified appraisers?
All appraisals and appraisal reviews conducted for acquisition or disposition of state lands must be conducted by appraisers on the Division of State Land's Approved Appraiser List, pursuant to Rule 18-1.007(2), F.A.C.

These documents are needed to prepare your FCT Parks and Open Space Program Application.
The FCT Self-Score Check Sheet is a helpful but optional tool to determine if a project will receive a competitive evaluation score.
Would the state be interested in buying my property?
It depends on the property. For specific information, contact the Division of State Lands at 850-245-2555.
What is needed to close on a property?
Generally, three due diligence products are needed for a closing with the state: title commitment, survey and environmental site assessment. Once received, the products must be reviewed and approved by staff members, such as closing staff, attorneys and potential managers.
How do I report suspicious activity (i.e., dumping) that may be affecting the environment?
Dial #DEP on a cellphone or call 877-2-Save-FL. Appropriate law enforcement offices will be notified.
How can I determine if there are conservation lands in a particular area?
Visit FNAI. In the menu bar under Conservation Lands, click on Conservation Lands Map. A separate window will open with an interactive map of Florida's conservation lands.
How do I know if property is currently under lease or state-owned?
Send a location map listing the section/township/range to the Uplands Leasing Section of the Division of State Lands. They will submit a request to the Title and Land Records Section for a determination of any encumbrances, such as an upland lease or easement, on the property. You also may call 850-245-2555.
