Banana River Lagoon Government Overview
The majority of Banana River lagoon is federal property, occupied by Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, and managed by Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge.
Florida's Department of Environmental Protection manages approximately 30,000 acres of the northern lagoon as the Banana River Aquatic Preserve.
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission performs research, protects and conserves wildlife and habitat, and enforces the law on Florida's waterways.
Florida's St. Johns River Water Management District Governing Board decides water quality policy, and SJRWMD Area 5 represents the national estuary from Ponce Inlet to St. Lucie River. Florida's Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission conserves natural areas, performs scientific research, regulates fishing and hunting, and enforces the law within the Banana River lagoon.
Brevard County's Environmentally Endangered Lands Program manages 436 acres in Sykes Creek as the Ulumay Sanctuary, and the county's Save Our Indian River Lagoon Program has planned or completed several restoration projects within urbanized southern Banana River lagoon. The SOIRL program's restoration projects include sewer utility repairs, septic to sewer conversions, stormwater redirection, and residential canal muck dredging.
The Florida Inland Navigation District partners with the US Army Corps of Engineers to maintain the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway within the Banana River lagoon. The USACE maintains the ICW's markers, dredges Port Canaveral and the Canaveral Barge Canal, and operates the Canaveral Harbor Lock and Canaveral Lock Bridge.
The Banana River lagoon has been recognized as an estuary of national significance by the EPA's Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program, and is locally managed by the Indian River Lagoon Council, a Florida Special District.
