40C-41.063: Conditions for Issuance of Permits

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on May 04, 2007, the St. Johns River Water Management District, received a petition for variance from The Haven at Riviera, LLC, pursuant to Section 120.542, Florida Statutes. Petitioner is seeking a variance from subparagraph 40C-41.063(1)(c)1., F.A.C., and Section 11.1.3 of the Applicant’s Handbook: Management and Storage of Surface Waters (February 1, 2005) (A.H.), for Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) Application 4-009-106873-1. The permit applicant is proposing to construct a wet detention surface water management system that will serve a 336-unit multi-family residential development and Riviera Drive and at times will discharge to Canals C-72 and C-73 of the Melbourne-Tillman Water Control District canal system in Brevard County. Subparagraph 40C-41.063(1)(c)1., F.A.C., and Section 11.1.3, A.H., prohibit the construction, operation, and maintenance of a surface water management system in the Upper St. Johns River Hydrologic Basin that results in an increase in the amount of water being diverted from the Basin to coastal receiving waters. These rules are intended to protect the water resources of the state by limiting discharges of fresh water to estuarine waters and curtailing interbasin diversion. Comments on this petition should be filed with: Robert Nawrocki, District Clerk, St. Johns River Water Management District, 4049 Reid Street, Palatka, Florida 32177-2529, within 14 days of publication of this notice. The petition has been assigned F.O.R. Number 2007-43.
