The purpose and effect of the proposed rule development is to add two new rules to Chapter 62-701 in order to 1) adopt the federal regulations in 40 CFR Part 257.50 through 257.107, “Standards for the Disposal of Coal Combustion Residuals in Landfills and Surface Impoundments” by reference into Chapter 62-701, F.A.C., through the fast track process in section 403.8055, F.S., and 2) adopt procedures in Rule 62-701.805, F.A.C., by which the Department of Environmental Protection will issue Coal Combustion Residuals Permits to facilities in Florida that are currently required to comply with the requirements in 40 CFR Part 257.50 through 257.107.

The workshop will focus on rules relating to liner requirements for construction and demolition debris facilities, processing construction and demolition debris prior to disposal where economically feasible, investigation of sinkhole potential at landfills, requirements facilitating the use of insurance policies to meet financial assurance obligations, and requirements related to the beneficial use of ash from waste-to-energy facilities. The workshop will also address other potential changes to the rule. The workshop will be available via webinar.

Published on: 11689681. Subsection 403.707(9), F.S., requires that all construction and demolition debris landfills be constructed with liners and leachate control systems. This same subsection also requires that all construction and demolition debris be processed prior to disposal when economically feasible. Section 403.087(6), F.S., requires that all permit fees be updated every five years to account for inflation. The rule chapter must be amended to address these new requirements. There are also several minor changes that need to be made to update and clarify the chapter.
Published on: 10916494. 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 debris disposal facilities and waste processing facilities. This chapter was last amended on January 6, 2011. A number of simplifying changes are being proposed to the chapter with the goals of continuing environmental protection but also: (1) reducing unnecessary regulations; (2) reducing costs to the regulated community; (3) clarifying existing regulations; and (4) conforming the chapter to recent statutory changes. These measures will result in a significant savings to the regulated community while continuing to provide environmental protection.
Published on: 8953311. Chapter 2010-205, Laws of Florida, includes a new requirement that all construction and demolition debris landfills be constructed with liners and leachate control systems. Chapter 2010-143, Laws of Florida, includes a new requirement that all construction and demolition debris be processed prior to disposal when economically feasible. The rule chapter must be amended to address these new requirements. There are also several minor changes that need to be made to update and clarify the chapter.
Published on: 7595893. The Department is proposing to amend Chapter 62-701, Florida Administrative Code (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 facilities. This chapter was substantially revised on May 21, 2001. Since that time, technologies have progressed and statutes have been changed making it apparent that an update of the entire chapter was necessary. Furthermore, new research has shown that arsenic may leach from wood treated with chromated copper arsenate (CCA) at concentrations above the Department's groundwater standard. Since most of this wood is currently disposed of in unlined facilities in Florida, the Department has concluded that Florida's groundwater may be at risk. It is clear that better management practices are needed.
