Published on: 11768057. The Suwannee River Water Management District (SRWMD) gives notice that it is developing rules as part of a statewide effort headed by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and joined by all five water management districts (WMDs), to increase consistency in the water use permit (WUP), minimum flows and levels (MFLs), and water supply related programs of the WMDs. This rule development is proposed to be coordinated with similar rule development by the other WMDs throughout Florida. This rule development will make appropriate rule amendments to SRWMD’s Chapters 40B-1, 40B-2, 40B-21, and 40B-8, F.A.C., and the Water Use Permitting Guide to address the following goals of the DEP and the WMDs for this rulemaking: (1) making the WUP rules less confusing for applicants; (2) treating applicants equitably statewide; (3) providing consistent protection of the environment; (4) streamlining the application and permitting process; and (5) incentivizing behavior that protects water resources, including water conservation. Additional information about the statewide WUP consistency initiative is available at DEP’s website at: www.dep.state.fl.us/water/waterpolicy/cupcon.htm.
Published on: 7522949. The purpose of the proposed rule is to comprehensively update Chapter 40B-2, F.A.C., for consistency with Part II, Chapter 373, F.S., and current state water policy. The proposed rule also incorporates by reference a Water Use Permitting Guide.
The effect of the proposed rule is to provide a permitting program that results in more efficient water uses and specifically includes in Rule 40B-2.041, F.A.C., water conservation measures for qualifying landscape irrigation uses that are consistent with the current requirements of the St. Johns River and Southwest Florida water management districts.
Published on: 7073451. The purpose of the rule development is to update these sections of Chapter 40B-2, Florida Administrative Code, to modernize the existing rule language and incorporate a Water Use Permitting Guide by reference. In addition, Rule 40B-2.041, F.A.C., is amending the Minor Permit by Rule that regulates qualifying landscape irrigation uses in Rule 40B-2.041, F.A.C. The effect of the rule development will be to provide for a more efficient water use program by bringing the rule up to date. The effect will also set forth conservation measures for qualifying landscape irrigation uses and develop consistency with St. Johns and Southwest Florida water management districts.
