District offers training sessions for well permitting system

The Northwest Florida Water Management District will be implementing a new online well permitting system for well permitting and contractor licensing beginning Monday, September 24, 2018.

The current online well permitting system will be available until 5 p.m. (Eastern) on September 19.

No well permits will be issued on September 17 and 18 due to internal training or on September 20 and 21 due to transitioning to the new well permitting system.

These well applications will transition to and be processed in the new system beginning Monday, September 24.
