40E-6.221: Conditions for Issuance of Standard Permits

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT on August 9, 2007, the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) has issued an order.

SFWMD Governing Board issued an Order Granting Waiver under Section 120.542, Fla. Stat. (SFWMD 2007-527-DAO-ROW), to the Village of Wellington. The petition for waiver was received by the SFWMD on July 20, 2007. Notice of receipt of the petition requesting the waiver was published in the F.A.W., Vol. 33, No. 31, on August 3, 2007. No public comment was received. This Order provides a waiver for the proposed installation of 4-48'' culvert connections through the south right of way of C-51 located immediately west of the Flying Cow Road Bridge in conjunction with the Village of Wellington’s Pump Station No. 7, Section 36, Township 43, Range 40 East, Palm Beach County. Specifically, the Order grants a waiver from paragraph 40E-6.221(2)(j), Fla. Admin. 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), Fla. Admin. Code, which governs the maximum invert elevation of culvert connections 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 Village of Wellington from suffering a substantial hardship.

A copy of the Order may be obtained by contacting: Juli Triola, South Florida Water Management District, 3301 Gun Club Road, MSC 1410, West Palm Beach, FL 33406-4680, telephone number [phone], or by e-mail [e-mail].
