The Department proposes to amend Rule 62-4.050, F.A.C., to reduce the application fee for a site specific alternative criterion in surface waters from $15,000 to $5,000 per water quality parameter. The Department also proposes to amend Rule 62-4.242, F.A.C., to revise the anti-degradation threshold for turbidity levels for beach nourishment projects, while protecting natural marine resources in the affected area. Lastly, the Department proposes to amend Rule 62-4.244, FAC, to revise the limit on the size of turbidity mixing zones for Joint Coastal Permits.
