Brevard County’s Boating and Waterways Program works to align the needs and resources of the County’s extensive waterways.  The Program ensures the safety and enjoyment of the general public and is working to find a balance between the environmental, recreational, and commercial needs of the region, now and into the future.

Comprehensive Maritime Management Master Plan (CM3P)

The Natural Resource Management Office and the University of Florida Brevard County Extension Service have initiated and are jointly sponsoring the development of the Brevard County Comprehensive Maritime Management Master Plan (CM3P).  In development of the plan, a series of public meetings are to be held to address and balance environmental, recreational, and economic issues affecting the future of Brevard County’s waterways.  Our kickoff meeting was a success with over 100 individuals present, representing a wide variety of interests such as eco-tourism, ecosystem management, recreational boaters, marinas, law enforcement, local municipalities, water-dependent facilities, marine industries, conservation districts and interested citizens.  Additional public meetings to continue the development of the CM3P are currently being scheduled.  For information on upcoming CM3P public meetings contact Matt Culver at the Brevard County Natural Resources Management Office, 321-633-2016 and click here to see the CM3P outline.
