Unit:Indian River Lagoon Council

IRL Council

The Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program is sponsored by the IRL Council, which was established in February 2015 as a special district of Florida. The IRL Council includes representatives of five counties bordering the lagoon (Volusia, Brevard, the Indian River County Lagoon Coalition, St. Lucie and Martin counties), the St. Johns River and South Florida Water Management Districts, and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).

The foundation for a successful IRL NEP is that it is non-regulatory, fact-driven, collaborative, consensus-driven, inclusive and dedicated to providing connected leadership throughout the IRL region among scientists, citizens, stakeholders and policy makers.
