GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The purpose of this workshop will be to discuss: 1. A single, uniform definition of the term “harmful to the water resources” consistent with the term’s usage in s. 373.219; 2. A single method for calculating residential per capita water use; 3. A single process for permit reviews; 4. A single, consistent process, as appropriate, to set minimum flows and minimum water levels and water reservations; 5. A goal for residential per capita water use for each consumptive use permit; 6. An annual conservation goal for each consumptive use permit consistent with the regional water supply plan; 7. A process by which the agency may grant variances to the uniform rules based on unique circumstances or hydrogeological factors that make application of the uniform rules unrealistic or impractical; and 8. Existing recovery strategies within the Central Florida Water Initiative Area adopted before July 1, 2016. The only recovery strategies meeting that description are the Dover/Plant City and Southern Water Use Caution Area Recovery Strategies.
