Purpose


This rulemaking is part of a package of rule amendments to revise and update the District’s permit application noticing and agency action noticing procedures. The purpose of amendments proposed for Rules 40D-40.040 and 40D-40.112, F.A.C., is to describe more accurately the procedures that are in use for reviewing Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) applications. The effect will be to reference Rule 40D-1.603, F.A.C., as being applicable in the review of general ERP applications seeking a proprietary authorization for activities located on sovereignty submerged lands and to correctly list who is invited to comment on general ERP applications involving wetlands or other surface waters.
