The Natural Resources Management Office provides sound, cost effective management of environmental resources.  This is accomplished by developing and implementing management plans, regulations, and outreach programs designed to preserve and protect Brevard County's natural resources to further their public utilization and enjoyment.

The Natural Resources Management Office is composed of three sections, each specialized in an area of activity:

Environmental Resources Management

Provides  responsible guidance and professional administration of county environmental ordinances; and efficient management of Brevard County's government-owned lands.  Environmental Resources Management performs the responsibilities of the former Environmental Management and Environmental Permitting sections.

Environmental Remediation and Compliance

Protects and restores Brevard County’s groundwater and drinking water sources through proper management and disposal of hazardous materials, hazardous waste and petroleum products.

Watershed Management

The Watershed Management Section is comprised of a Stormwater Utility Program that designs, constructs, monitors, operates, and maintains stormwater infrastructure to reduce flooding and improve water quality and a
Beach Management Program that administers several beach restoration projects that place beach quality sand and native dune vegetation along the Atlantic shoreline to protect upland property and maintain healthy beaches for residents, tourists and wildlife.
