40D-2.091: Publications Incorporated by Reference
PURPOSE AND EFFECT: To amend Chapter 40D-2, Florida Administrative Code, and the Basis of Review for Water Use Permit Applications, incorporated by reference in Rule 40D-2.091, to expand public supply permittee per capita water use-related requirements to those areas of the District not already subject to them.
SUBJECT AREA TO BE ADDRESSED: Public supply permittee per capita water use-related requirements. Permittees affected are primarily public water supply utilities. The requirements include: required calculation of per capita water use according to the recently adopted Southern Water Use Caution Area rules, including the new service area population estimation methodology (affects all areas outside of the Southern Water Use Caution Area); required submission of the annual per capita water use report and associated data via the annual Public Supply Survey (affects all areas outside of existing Water Use Caution Areas); compliance with a per capita daily water use standard (affects all areas outside of existing Water Use Caution Areas).
District staff will present a brief overview of the requirements, solicit input and describe those activities underway to assist permittees with complying with the population estimation methodology requirements. District staff will also be seeking input on other requirements in place in the Northern Tampa Bay and Southern Water Use Caution Areas such as: water conserving water rate structures; water billing information to be provided to customers; reclaimed water use and connections reporting; and water service area delineation and submission.
One or more members of the Governing Board may attend.
