The Board of Supervisors, the employees and I would like to welcome you to our web site. We would emphasize that we are committed to meet your water control needs, from drainage in the rainy season, to aquifer recharge in the dry season, to all year maintenance of the rights-of-way behind your homes and businesses and all canals and lakes in Lehigh Acres.

The employees of the East County Water Control District are highly trained professionals. They are licensed in stormwater operation, herbicide application, traffic maintenance, hazardous materials cleanup and are schooled regularly in safety.

For any questions about heavy equipment and the mechanical maintenance of canals, lakes and rights-of-way, water quality, water levels, or for chemical treatment of plants in our system, please call Ken Waugh at 368-0044.

The District works closely with Lee County, the State of Florida, the Federal Government and South Florida Water Management District on many projects and programs. As a community of government agencies, we can only be efficient by working in cooperation with each other.
