Indian River Lagoon Organizations
Spread across 40% of Florida's East Coast, the Indian River Lagoon National Estuary is currently governed, managed, preserved and restored by:
- Federal, State, County and Municipal governments
- State and Federal Environmental Protection Agencies
- State and Federal Water Management Districts
- State Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC)
- State Council for the National Estuary Program (IRLNEP)
- Inlet Districts and Port Authorities
- U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS)
- U.S. National Park Service (NPS)
- U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE)
- U.S. Canaveral Space Force Station (CAFS)
- National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
Plus... Scientists, Research Institutes and Non-Profit Organizations.
There are numerous organizations working together to preserve, restore and govern the Indian River Lagoon National Estuary. In Mosquito Lagoon alone, there are no fewer than eight federal and state organizations (EPA, NPS, FWS, NASA, CAFS, COE, FDEP and FWC), managing the longest stretch (21 miles) of undeveloped lagoon and beach barrier island property remaining on Florida's East Coast.
The IRL Organization Directory collects and organizes these groups, in hierarchical order by type, to assemble the information needed to diagram an IRL Organizational Chart. This organizational directory will help us visualize which government organizations are working in each region of the estuary, and which habitats and species have NPOs supporting them.

St Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD)
The St. Johns River Water Management District is an environmental regulatory agency of the state of Florida whose work is focused on ensuring a long-term supply of drinking water, and to protect and restore the health of water bodies in the district’s 18 counties in northeast and east-central Florida. While the district works closely with utilities on water supply issues, the district is not a water supplier.
The mission of the St. Johns River Water Management District is “to protect our natural resources and support Florida’s growth by ensuring the sustainable use of Florida’s water for the benefit of the people of the District and the state.”
