Show Notes
Brevard County, Florida, is making significant strides in transitioning homes from septic systems to central sewers to combat nitrogen and phosphorus pollution in the Indian River Lagoon. Cities like Cocoa, Merritt Island, Rockledge, Palm Bay, and Titusville are expanding sewer lines and offering homeowner incentives. Homeowners can receive up to $20,000 in grants for upgrades if sewer hookup isnt immediate. Palm Bay has approved a four-year phased plan starting next summer. This initiative aims to protect the lagoon long-term and meet state rules for lower-nitrogen setups by 2030.
