Abstract
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Region 4 has determined that adequate facilities for the safe and sanitary removal and treatment of sewage from all vessels are reasonably available for the Indian River-Vero Beach to Fort Pierce Aquatic Preserve ("the Preserve") in Florida to support the designation of a vessel sewage no-discharge zone for such waters. Pursuant to the Clean Water Act section 312, this notice constitutes EPA's final affirmative determination on the application submitted by Florida on July 3, 2024. Following this final affirmative determination, Florida may designate all waters within the Preserve as a vessel sewage no-discharge zone in accordance with State law.
