    DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

    NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on January 19, 2007, the Department of Environmental Protection's South District has issued an order.

    Notice of receipt of this petition was published on the Department’s website on June 30, 2006. The petition requested a variance from the required 75-foot set back distance for reclaimed water lines from public water supply wells under subsection 62-610.471(3), F.A.C., requesting that the separation between reclaimed water lines and public water supply wells within a certain area of the City of Cape Coral be reduced to 30 feet. No public comment was received. The Order, OGC File # 06-1151, granted the Petition to reduce the separation between reclaimed water lines and public water supply wells within a certain area in the City of Cape Coral to 30 feet, based on a showing that Petitioner demonstrated that a strict application of the rule would result in substantial hardship to Petitioner or would affect Petitioner differently than other similarly situated applicants and because Petitioner had successfully fulfilled the requirements of the underlying statute by other means.

    A copy of the Order may be obtained by contacting: Craig Rutherford, Department of Environmental Protection, South District Office, P. O. Box 2549, Fort Myers, Florida 33902-2549, (239)332-6975.
