Welcome to Environmental Plan Review. Our main responsibility is to review building permits, Certificates of Use and Occupancy, and Occupational License applications to ensure that Federal, State, and County (Chapter 24 and Chapter 11c of the Miami-Dade County code) environmental protection laws are complied with.
Plan Review welcomes customers to interact with the Section’s personnel by calling one of our locations listed to address any questions that you may encounter with the process. Additionally, you now have the ability to schedule an appointment with a DERM plan reviewer via the web. This is a brand new feature that can be scheduled through the Miami-Dade County Building Department.
Plan Review encourages applicants to use the DERM Plan Submittal Checklists in order to submit complete and approvable sets of plans. Plan Review believes that its overall productivity can be greatly improved if the customer submits clear and accurate information for review, along with any supporting documentation./p>
Getting it right the first time: Plan reviews
In order to improve Miami-Dade County's plan review process, plans will be automatically routed, when applicable, through a review by the Miami-Dade County Water & Sewer New Business Section. It is part of a collaboration between DERM, the Water & Sewer Department and Building and Neighborhood Compliance Department.
A public meeting is being offered to provide more information about this topic on Dec. 14 at the Permitting and Inspection Center (PIC). The new process will come into effect Jan. 4.
Getting it right the first time: Tie Beam Inspection procedure
Effective July 6, anyone working on a new building construction and/or substantial additions is required to submit an "Under Construction Elevation Certificate" showing floor elevation, adjacent grade elevation and crown of road elevation before proceeding with the Tie Beam Inspection. For more information, contact DERM's Office of Plan Review Services 786-315-2800 or e-mail dermplanreview@miamidade.gov.
