Purpose
To incorporate by reference a conservation easement for local government use when the local government is submitting a permit involving a conservation easement to the South Florida Water Management District (District) as a component of the Environmental Resource Permit process. The regulated public, in this case the local government, will benefit by the incorporation of this form into the District’s rules by reducing review time for both the local government and District staff reviewers and by ensuring that the form is consistent with the requirements of Section 704.06, Florida Statutes, and other conservation easement forms adopted by the District.
