The Department is proposing to amend Chapter 62-701, F.A.C., which contains regulations for a wide variety of solid waste facilities including landfills, construction and demolition (C&D) debris disposal facilities, and waste processing and recycling facilities. This chapter was last amended with an effective date of August 12, 2012. Subsection 403.707(9), F.S., requires that all construction and demolition debris landfills be constructed with liners and leachate control systems. Amendments are being made to the chapter to implement these changes in the statutes. In addition, a number of simplifying changes are being proposed to the chapter with the goals of: (1) reducing unnecessary regulations; (2) reducing costs to the regulated community; and, (3) clarifying existing regulations. These measures will result in a significant savings to the regulated community while continuing to provide effective environmental protection.
