What Happens After You Submit
A real person on the FloatSolar team reads every submission that comes through this form — nothing goes to a generic queue. We typically respond within 1-2 business days, usually by email, with next steps for your project.
To scope your system and, if requested, run a jurisdictional pre-screen on your pond, we'll ask for a few additional details. Having these ready when you submit speeds things up:
- Pond location or approximate GPS coordinates
- Approximate surface acreage and water depth
- Ownership of the water body (private, HOA, municipal, utility, etc.)
- Target system size in kW
- Utility and interconnection intent (net metering, behind-the-meter, off-grid)
- Project timeline
The Free Jurisdictional Pre-Screen
Following the Supreme Court's 2023 decision in Sackett v. EPA, many isolated private ponds are no longer considered jurisdictional "waters of the United States" under the Clean Water Act. That does not mean a floating solar project is permit-free — it means the specific mix of permits that applies depends on your site. Our free pre-screen is a way to find out what actually applies to your pond before you invest further time.
What you send us
Using the details listed above — location, approximate acreage and depth, ownership, target system size, and utility intent — we review your pond against publicly available jurisdictional and regulatory information for your state.
What you get back, in writing
- An assessment of whether your water body is likely jurisdictional post-Sackett
- A plainly labeled list of the permits that still apply regardless, which commonly include:
- Local building permits
- Local electrical permits
- Utility interconnection approval under NEC Article 690
- State submerged-lands or environmental resource permits, where the water body is state-owned
- USACE Section 408 review, where Army Corps infrastructure is involved
- FERC review, at licensed hydroelectric facilities
- NEPA review, where there is a federal nexus
This pre-screen is site-specific, state-dependent, and provided for informational purposes only. It is not legal advice and does not replace a formal jurisdictional determination or a review by a licensed attorney or your local permitting authority.
