Dock, seawall, dredge/fill, shoreline, and other water-dependent work in Hillsborough can involve multiple regulators. The Environmental Protection Commission of Hillsborough County administers local wetlands permitting/exemptions; the parcel's local building authority may also require structural/building permits; Florida DEP can regulate environmental-resource and submerged-land impacts; and federal Army Corps authorization can apply to regulated waters. StartFL should treat marine work as multi-agency and should not infer that a local dock or seawall permit replaces EPC, state, or federal approvals.
