Florida's Sewage Pollution Crisis

Places like Florida are usually associated with beautiful beaches, pristine waters, and a vibrant marine life. However, sewage spills and deteriorating wastewater systems lie beneath the surface and are causing an ecological catastrophe. Sewage pollution isn't just a problem in Florida—it is affecting waterways nationwide. Many households rely on outdated systems like septic tanks and cesspools, that never adequately treat their waste. In numerous cities, there are sewer systems that are nearly 100 years old, and are overburdened and failing under the stress of growing populations, climate change, and decades of neglect. Surfrider is fighting to ensure that all wastewater is adequately treated in the United States, to protect both public health and the environment. We are calling on Congress to invest in fixing and upgrading our failing wastewater infrastructure by increasing funding for the Clean Water State Revolving Fund in next year’s federal budget.
