The one substantive change since the text was adopted by the Governing Board in February 2014 is to correct Table 2-3 of the Applicant's Handbook to reflect the duration for General Permit by Rule for Short-Term Dewatering is up to one year rather than 180 days. This correction is consistent with proposed subsection 40E-2.061(2), F.A.C.
