Miami-Dade County Drainage Regulations & Challenges

Understanding local requirements for successful drainage projects

Key Regulations

  • Chapter 11C: Flood Regulations (effective March 2025 updates)
  • Chapter 24: Environmental regulations for drainage
  • Impervious Surface Ordinance: Enhanced resilience requirements
  • Water Control Map establishes flood criteria and finished floor elevations
  • County Flood Criteria based on 25-year/3-day and 10-year/24-hour storms

Local Drainage Challenges

  • Seepage systems (French drains, exfiltration trenches) are primary solutions
  • Sea level rise projections of 2+ feet affect long-term design
  • Properties must manage and retain their own stormwater
  • Development cannot negatively impact adjacent properties
  • Floor elevations must meet Water Control Map or road crown elevation
  • Coastal areas face king tide and storm surge flooding

Environmental Factors

Flood Zone: Extensive AE and VE zones, sea level rise considerations
Water Table: 0-4 feet (extremely high, often at surface)
