Excerpt about 2019 plan updates from the SOIRL website:

Each year, Brevard County updates the Save Our Indian River Lagoon Project Plan to respond to new scientific information, technologies, project opportunities and needs of the Indian River Lagoon. As part of this process, municipalities and other community partners may submit funding requests for projects that can accelerate and/or increase restoration efforts at a comparable cost to the projects listed in the plan.

On January 18, 2019, the Citizen Oversight Committee recommended a plan update with 23 new project proposals and reprioritization of wastewater, septic and muck removal projects. The proposed 2019 Update reapportions funds between project types, most notably a $30 million increase for human waste-related projects, a $27 million increase in stormwater projects, and a $37 million decrease in muck removal projects offset by a $21 million increase to provide interstitial water treatment for all dredging projects.

The initial 2019 Plan Update was presented to the Board of County Commissioners on February 12, 2019, for their consideration of approval. A Revised Save Our Indian River Lagoon Project Plan 2019 Update[1] was approved by the County Commission during their regular evening meeting on April 9, 2019.[2]
