NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) Governing Board issued an Order Granting Waiver under Section 120.542, Florida Statutes (SFWMD 2006-175-DAO-ROW), on November 9, 2006, to the Town of Jupiter. The petition for waiver was received by the SFWMD on September 28, 2006. Notice of receipt of the petition requesting the waiver was published in the F.A.W., Vol. 32, No. 41, on October 13, 2006. No public comment was received. This Order provides a waiver of the District’s criteria to allow an existing above-ground electrical panel with meter box to be relocated and remain within the C-18E right of way serving the Island Way Bridge; S3/T41S/R42E, Palm Beach County. Specifically, the Order grants a waiver from paragraph 40E-6.221(2)(j), Florida Administrative Code, and the Basis of Review for Use or Occupancy of the Works or Lands of the District Permit Applications within the South Florida Water Management District, incorporated by reference in subsection 40E-6.091(1), Florida Administrative Code, which governs the placement of above-ground permanent and/or semi-permanent encroachments within the District’s 100 foot long designated equipment staging areas located at all bridges and pile-supported utility crossings within Works or Lands of the District. Generally, the Order sets forth the basis of the Governing Board decision to grant the waiver, as follows: 1) the facilities will not significantly interfere with the SFWMD’s ability to perform necessary construction, alteration, operation and maintenance activities; and 2) the Order granting a waiver from the subject rule would prevent the Town of Jupiter from suffering a substantial hardship.

A copy of the Order can be obtained from: Kathie Ruff, South Florida Water Management District, 3301 Gun Club Road, MSC 1410, West Palm Beach, FL 33406-4680, [phone] or by e-mail [e-mail]
