Summary


The District’s Water Use Information Manual Part B, Basis of Review for Water Use Permit Applications (Basis of Review), sets forth the usual procedures and information used by the District in the review of water use permit applications. Subsection 1.6 of the Basis of Review describes the permit application review process and advises that persons whose substantial interests may be affected by agency action on a permit and who wish to object to such action may file a petition for hearing. The proposed rule amendment will correct the language to state that persons desiring to file a petition for hearing have 21 days from receipt of notice of proposed agency action in which to timely file a petition. The amendment will also delete references to repealed District rules. Rule 40D-2.091, F.A.C., is also amended to incorporate by reference the revised Basis of Review.
