The South Florida Water Management District (District) hereby gives notice: On May 9, 2024, the District's Governing Board issued SFWMD Order No. 2024-029-DAO-ROW to Florida Power and Light Company (Application No. 240206-422897). The petition for waiver was received by the District on February 27, 2024. Notice of receipt of the petition requesting the waiver was published in the Florida Administrative Register, Vol. 50/42 on February 29, 2024. No public comment was received on this item. This Order provides a waiver of the District's criteria to allow the placement of a utility installation more than 10 feet from the right of way line of the C-103 Canal; Section 17, Township 57 South, Range 40 East, Miami-Dade County. Specifically, the Order grants a waiver from paragraph 40E-6.221(3)(j), Fla. Admin. Code, which governs the installation of buried utility parallel runs 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 proposed installation will not interfere with the District's current ability to perform necessary construction, alteration, operation, and routine maintenance activities; and 2) the Order granting a waiver from the subject rule is based upon a substantial hardship.

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