What the Data Shows in Monroe County

The trailing 12 month FDEP public notice record for Monroe County holds 4 sanitary sewer releases and 57,000 gallons of reported release volume. Monroe County lands at number 27 of 38 counties for reported volume. One event accounts for 40,000 gallons, the largest in the Monroe County window. Monroe County last appeared in the notice record on June 12, 2026. 4 reported releases is a light window for Monroe County, useful mainly as a baseline. US Census ACS housing age estimates show Monroe County split, with 46.4% of 54,418 housing units built before 1980 and the balance newer. Median structure age across Monroe County runs about 41 years. Monroe County scoping separates the pre 1980 core, where CCTV pipeline inspection leads, from newer areas.

NOAA precipitation data shows Monroe County at 31.6 inches for the trailing 12 months at 100% station coverage, a dry window. Light rainfall suppresses reported events, so the Monroe County record reads as a floor. EPA ECHO carries no active Clean Water Act enforcement in Monroe County, which keeps work on a planning footing. Because Monroe County lies in the Florida Keys, the fair comparison set is Broward and Miami-Dade counties. Statewide capability reaches Monroe County, with crews mobilized to the county and held until the work is documented.
