NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) Governing Board issued an Order Granting Waiver under Section 120.542, Fla. Stat. (SFWMD 2006-129-DAO-ROW), on September 13, 2006, to Joy D. Hampp. The petition for waiver was received by the SFWMD on July 5, 2006. Notice of receipt of the petition requesting the waiver was published in the F.A.W., Vol. 32, No. 39, on July 21, 2006. No public comment was received. This Order provides a waiver of the District’s criteria for the proposed construction of 12 finger piers (24 mooring slips) adjacent to the existing, previously-authorized boardwalk within the north right of way of LD-4 adjacent to the “Cottages At the Lake, LLC” Development; S36/T37S/R35E, Okeechobee 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 density of mooring slips/spaces exceeding more than (4) four per 100 linear feet of frontage along the District’s waterway 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 Joy D. Hampp 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].
