Florida law requires all potable (drinking) water systems connected to public utilities to have a backflow prevention device tested annually under Florida Administrative Code 62- 555.360. This ensures no contaminants flow back into the public water supply. Our certified testers inspect, document, and report compliance results directly to your local utility provider, protecting your community's drinking water and keeping your system in regulatory good standing.

What "Environmental" Really Means for Your Property When you purchase a developed property in Florida- especially one with ponds, storm drains, or irrigation systems -you're not just buying land and infrastructure; you're inheriting an environmental system that operates under state regulation. Every commercial site, subdivision, or community development has what's called an Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) issued by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) or its regional Water Management District. This permit governs how stormwater is collected, treated, and discharged from your property to protect Florida's waterways. When a property is sold, this ERP permit must be legally transferred to the new owner, who then becomes responsible for maintaining the system in working and compliant condition. Many new owners are unaware of this requirement, but these inspections and maintenance activities are not optional-they're a critical part of environmental compliance under state law. Think of your property's environmental systems as a living ecosystem working quietly beneath the surface. The stormwater ponds collect runoff and filter pollutants; the control structures and pipes regulate water levels and prevent flooding; the lift stations and backflow preventers protect drinking water and wastewater systems from contamination. Each part depends on the others, and when one component fails-say a clogged outfall or neglected backflow test-it can affect the entire system's performance. Regular inspections, maintenance, and documentation keep this ecosystem healthy and functional, protecting your investment, ensuring compliance with Florida law, and maintaining the beauty and safety of your community for years to come.

Irrigation systems can easily introduce fertilizers, pesticides, or bacteria into the water supply if not properly protected. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) requires irrigation backflow assemblies to be tested yearly by a licensed backflow technician. Blue Trust ensures your irrigation system meets all state and county backflow protection standards while maintaining a clean, safe, and efficient watering system.

Reclaimed water systems are regulated separately under FAC 62-610, requiring proper separation and backflow control to prevent cross-connection with potable lines. Annual testing of reclaimed backflow devices is mandatory in most Florida municipalities. Blue Trust technicians verify proper valve operation and documentation so your site remains compliant and environmentally responsible.

Under rule FAC 62-330.310 and the ERP Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Requirement every property permitted under a Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) or FDEP Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) must perform annual stormwater inspections to maintain system functionality and legal compliance. Our engineers perform full inspections of ponds, control structures, and outfalls, documenting sediment buildup, vegetation, and discharge conditions.

Lift stations are required to operate under Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and local municipal standards to prevent sewer overflows and groundwater contamination. Our inspection includes testing pumps, floats, valves, and control panels, along with deep pressure cleaning of the wet well for optimal performance. Blue Trust's certified technicians ensure your system remains fully operational and compliant with state environmental standards.

Fire protection systems are required by Florida Administrative Code 62-555.360 and NFPA 25 to include an approved backflow prevention device that's tested annually by a certified technician. These assemblies protect the public water supply from stagnant or chemically treated fire water. Blue Trust performs full inspection, testing, and certification of your fire line backflow system-ensuring compliance with both state law and local fire safety standards while keeping your property protected and your records up to date.
