Sanitary Sewer & Stormwater Infrastructure Services in Melbourne

Melbourne is one of the largest cities in Brevard County, spanning the mainland along the Indian River Lagoon and extending west past Interstate 95. It includes the historic Eau Gallie district to the north, downtown Melbourne along Crane Creek, Melbourne Orlando International Airport, and Florida Institute of Technology.

The City of Melbourne operates its own water and wastewater utility, and its water system serves a large part of south Brevard, including the south barrier island communities. Raw water for that system has historically come from Lake Washington on the St. Johns River. The city also operates its own stormwater utility. Commercial owners should confirm service area and permitting details with the city's utilities and engineering staff.

Melbourne's older neighborhoods and downtown contain building drains and sewer lines that date to the mid twentieth century, including cast iron and clay materials. Low areas near Crane Creek, Eau Gallie River, and the lagoon can drain slowly during heavy rain, and runoff from the city drains to the Indian River Lagoon. The mix of older districts and rapid newer growth means both rehabilitation and new construction inspection are common needs.

In Melbourne, Southeast Services is most relevant for CCTV inspection and condition assessment of gravity mains and commercial building drains, trenchless CIPP lining in downtown and Eau Gallie buildings where excavation is costly, storm pipe and culvert cleaning, lift station service, and vacuum excavation for utility locates near the airport, campus, and busy commercial corridors.

Melbourne's large institutional and commercial owners, including the airport area, the Florida Tech campus, hospitals, and downtown buildings, often manage private sewer and storm systems that connect to city infrastructure.
