PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose and effect is to repeal these rules.

SUMMARY: These rules are being repealed, pursuant to paragraph 373.4131(2)(c), F.S., because the substance of these rules has been superseded by the rules adopted in Chapter 62-330, F.A.C. No hearing will be scheduled because 373.4131(2)(c), F.S. provides that these rules can be repealed without further rulemaking under Section 120.54, F.S. Under 373.4131(2)(c), F.S., the repeals will become effective upon filing a list of the repealed rules with the Department of State.

SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION: The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the Agency.

Based on an analysis performed by the District and because the substance of the rules being repealed are addressed in Chapter 62-330, F.A.C., the proposed rule repeals are not expected to require legislative ratification pursuant to subsection 120.541(3), F.S.

Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.

RULEMAKING AUTHORITY: 373.044, 373.113, 373.4131 FS.

LAW IMPLEMENTED: 373.4131 FS.

IF REQUESTED WITHIN 21 DAYS OF THE DATE OF THIS NOTICE, A HEARING WILL BE SCHEDULED AND ANNOUNCED IN THE FAR.

THE PERSON TO BE CONTACTED REGARDING THE PROPOSED RULE IS: Chris Tanner, Office of General Counsel, Southwest Florida Water Management District, 7601 Highway 301 North, Tampa, Florida 33637-6759, [phone], email: [e-mail]. (OGC# 2015031)
